Canvas the Castle
this quest is received from the Countess at Castle Chorrol. When you talk to her she will mention that she is conducting an investigation into a stolen painting of the late Count. She will ask you to help her and give a list of people to talk to. These people are Bitneld the Curse Bringer, Chanel, Orok-gro-Ghoth, Laythe Wavrick and Orgnolf Hairy Legs. They can all be found in and around Chorrol, most are within the castle. Then you need to find three bits of evidence to determine the culprit. The first is a suspicious painting down the hidden trapdoor of the west tower. Second is a collection of painting supplies in Chanels quarters. Finally there are some paint footprints on the rug in the dining room. From here there are three ways to finish the quest:
1. Accuse Chanel and report her to the Countess. You will recieve some gold (depending on your level) and eight gemstones as a reward.
2. Accuse Orgnolf and report him to the Countess. You will recieve a small portion of gold as a reward.
3. Accuse Chanel but lie to the Countess. Chanel will give you a small sum of gold and a painting you can use to decorate your house.
