Walkthrough

After you kill Mercer and get the Skeleton Key, Karliah will talk to you and tells you that you must put the Skeleton Key back to the Twilight Sepulcher (Nocturnal's Temple) Quest 2: Here after you get to the Twilight Sepulcher, you will sea a Ghost/Fade version of Gallus (The former leader of the Theives Guild and a Nightingale) He will tell you that his power is fading since the Skeleton Key was removed. So after you finish talking, if you chose one of the "Conversation Options" a quest will be given that says "(Optional) Retrieve Nystrom's Journal" optional quest 3: simply get the journal which gives hints about the Pilgrim's Path. Close to the body there is an "Ebony Axe of Paralyzation" (Name is not paralyzation, i just forgot the right name) Quest 4: Follow the Pilgrim's Path. 1. Kill the Nightingale ghosts (there are 2 if you don't explore much, and just go in a direct path) 2.Go throught the dark path, going in the light will decrease your health and eventually kill you. 3. Near the statue of Nocturnal, there are 2 "Structures" that "make light" so you have to go to them on both sides, each has a chain to pull behind them. 4. Fall through the hole and you will see a body which has a note, a dagger and some other things, and after a while the player (Dragonborn) (Dovakiin) will get the skeleton key in his hand and the ground will collapse and he will fall to the Ebonmere (or near ir) Quest 5-6: put the Skeleton Key and Listen to Nocturnal. Quest 7: Simply speak to Karliah Quest 8: Choose a role (Agent of Shadow gives a spell which allows you to be invisible every time you crouch for 120 seconds) (please fill in the other 2)

Enjoy!
