This quest has a unique and significant bug. If you talk to go straight to Armand and bribe him to get into the Thieves Guild instead of getting a recommendation from a beggar or Myvryna Arano, the quest will never be started and therefore never be counted as complete, despite the game internally tracking the quest as having progressed to the final stage. This results in the game considering the quest complete without actually updating the Quests Completed statistic in the Accomplishments tab. This behavior has not been observed in any other quest | This quest has a unique and significant bug.

Bugs
This quest has a unique and significant bug. If you talk to go straight to Armand and bribe him to get into the Thieves Guild instead of getting a recommendation from a beggar or Myvryna Arano, the quest will never be started and therefore never be counted as complete, despite the game internally tracking the quest as having progressed to the final stage after joining the Thieves Guild. This results in the game considering the quest complete without actually updating the Quests Completed statistic in the Accomplishments tab. This behavior has not been observed in any other quest.
Route Logic Considerations
- Due to the bug mentioned above, this fastest way to correctly start this quest is to talk to Puny Ancus just before talking to Armand since he sleeps right next to the location of the meeting.

| 10 | (The player is released from jail; start Myvryna searching for PC with mysterious note) | ||
| 20 | (Note is delivered; add "Mysterious Note" topic) | ||
| 30 | I was given a mysterious note by a mysterious Dark Elf. It offers greater wealth and less jail time. Maybe I should check it out. I have to wait until midnight, and then go to the Garden of Dareloth. | ||
| 40 | A beggar told me that if I want to find the Gray Fox, I should look for the Garden of Dareloth in the Waterfront District of the Imperial City around midnight. The Gray Fox is the only clue I have to the mysterious Thieves Guild. | ||
