[edit] Background
The Fighters Guild has been hired to find Galtus Previa, and Viranus Donton needs a confidence boost.
[edit] Walkthrough
The master's son refers to Viranus Donton, son of the Fighter's Guild Guildmaster. Viranus, though ostensibly a member of the Fighter's Guild, has been - according to Oreyn - "held back" by an overprotective mother, possibly due to the fact that Viranus's brother was killed in a Fighter's Guild raid. The purpose of this quest is to raise Viranus's confidence by leading him on a triumphant dungeon crawl in Nonwyll Cavern, located northwest of Chorrol. The expedition involves discovering the fate of Fighter's Guild member Galtus Previa, who has gone missing.
Upon receiving the quest follow the quest marker to the Donton household. Despite Oreyn's imprecations to the contrary, speaking to the Guildmaster carries no perceivable quest penalty. Get Viranus Donton to follow you and head to Nonwyll Cavern.
The cavern is populated by rats, trolls, ogres and a minotaur. However, as Viranus is an essential character, there is no need to care about his continued survival, however he can't heal himself so after a few dead trolls he tends to get knocked unconscious often unless you wait for an hour for him to heal.
Eventually, the body of Galtus Previa can be found lying on the floor. A suspicious-looking Broken Shield lies next to him. Upon discovery of this gruesome scene return to Oreyn to find him grudgingly impressed, a welcome change from his previous demeanor. He will offer you an enchanted blade. Note that it doesn't seem to matter whether or not you bring back the broken shield, though he has a dialogue option that recognizes the shield if it's in your inventory.
