Penitus Oculatus Agent

The Penitus Oculatus Agents are the security force of the Penitus Oculatus organization. They serve as a personal security and espionage force for the Emperor after the Blades disbanded. They are initially only encountered at the Penitus Oculatus Outpost in Dragon Bridge. During the Dark Brotherhood quest Bound Until Death, a Penitus Oculatus agent is present at Vittoria Vici's wedding to ensure her safety. Two Penitus Oculatus agents are present at the Emperor Titus Mede II's dinner, and three agents will later ambush you during To Kill an Empire.

If spoken to inside the Outpost:

"I'm fairly certain you wandered into the wrong building, friend..."

"Citizen?"

Bound Until Death

There is a single Agent at the wedding who can be spoken to:

"I'm just here to provide protection for his eminence's cousin. Please, enjoy yourself."

After the assassination:

"She's dead! On my watch! This won't stand!"

To Kill an Empire

If you wait before going into the Emperor's Tower you can overhear a conversation between two Penitus Oculatus agents which will differ depending on who controls the city:

If Imperials control Solitude:

Penitus Oculatus Agent 1: "The city is crawling with Imperial Legion, and you know what? I'm still nervous."

Penitus Oculatus Agent 2: "Lazy and useless, the lot of them. They can't even keep the Stormcloaks in line. No way I trust them with the Emperor's life."

Penitus Oculatus Agent 1: "You worry too much. The Emperor's never been safer. You think assassination attempts are planned overnight? We discovered the plot. End of story."

Penitus Oculatus Agent 2: "I suppose. But what about the old man? Son killed, family name ruined...and he acts as if nothing even happened. Think's he's even fit for duty?"

Penitus Oculatus Agent 1: "I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that. Commander Maro is the best that the Penitus Oculatus ever produced. You should be half the man he is."

Penitus Oculatus Agent 2: "You misunderstand. Its just...I feel for him, is all. To carry a weight like that. It's got to take its toll. That happened to me, I'd be a wreck."

If Stormcloaks control Solitude:

Penitus Oculatus Agent 1: "All these damn Stormcloaks. They're making me nervous. Never in a million years did I imagine they'd gain control of Solitude."

Penitus Oculatus Agent 2: "I'm all for diplomacy, but the sooner the Emperor deals with this civil war mess, the sooner we can get back to Cyrodiil."

Penitus Oculatus Agent 1: "You worry too much. The Emperor's never been safer. You think assassination attempts are planned overnight? We discovered the plot. End of story."

Penitus Oculatus Agent 2: "I suppose. But what about the old man? Son killed, family name ruined...and he acts as if nothing even happened. Think's he's even fit for duty?"

Penitus Oculatus Agent 1: "I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that. Commander Maro is the best that the Penitus Oculatus ever produced. You should be half the man he is."

Penitus Oculatus Agent 2: "You misunderstand. Its just...I feel for him, is all. To carry a weight like that. It's got to take its toll. That happened to me, I'd be a wreck."

If you attempt you speak to them:

"Please, carry on."

"Move along, citizen."

While you are acting as the Gourmet you can speak to them:

"The Gourmet. This is such an honor."

"The misses and I love your strawberry tarts."

"Hmmm, the Potage le Magnifique. Smells delicious."

If the decoy Emperor dies from the meal:

"By the gods! The Gourmet and the chef have poisoned the Emperor, get them!"

If you kill the decoy directly:

"By the gods! The Gourmet has killed the Emperor! Attack!"

Death Incarnate

In the sanctuary:

Penitus Oculatus Agent 1: "Which one was the rat?"

Penitus Oculatus Agent 2: "Dunno. One of these corpses. Does it matter?"

Penitus Oculatus Agent 1: "Suppose not. But what's taking the others so long? The sooner we get out of here, the better. Smoke's getting bad. This place'll be raging soon."

Penitus Oculatus Agent 2: "Arcturus took some men deeper in, wanted to be sure. We should maybe... assist them."

Penitus Oculatus Agent 1: "You assist all you like. And get roasted for your trouble. I'll guard the exit."

Hail Sithis!

If you wait near Commander Maro at the Solitude docks, you may overhear a conversation between him and another Penitus Oculatus agent:

Penitus Oculatus Agent: "And the outpost at Dragon Bridge?"

Commander Maro: "It'll be shuttered by the end of the month."

Penitus Oculatus Agent: "Very good. And you'll be returning to... Well, if you don't mind me asking, where exactly will you be going now, sir?"

Commander Maro: "Hmph. Now there's an excellent question. An excellent question, indeed. Truth is, as soon as the Emperor sets sail, I'm resigning my position."

Penitus Oculatus Agent: "Oh... I see. Well then, let me be just say that it's been an honor serving under you Commander Maro."

Commander Maro: "The honor has been mine. You should be proud of what we've accomplished here. The Dark Brotherhood is no more. And the Emperor, finally, is safe."

Penitus Oculatus Agent: "Yes sir."

On the Katariah you can overhear agents speaking to each other:

"Well, it's all over now. Lieutenant said you could see the smoke from Whiterun."

"Yeah. I'm glad we can finally stand down- getting tired of looking over my shoulder all the time."

"Nothing to do now but sit back, relax, and enjoy the trip home."

"*Sigh*... and that's the last one. All right, enough of this."

"C'mon, let's get something to eat."

If any Agents spot you they can say:

"Well, well. Looks like one of the Dark Brotherhood rats escaped its burning nest. I can fix that."

"To arms, brothers! It's the assassin!"

"The Dark Brotherhood is dead... and so are you!"

"You want the Emperor? You'll have to get through us!"

"You'll never reach the Emperor! Not while I'm standing!"

"It all ends here, assassin!"

"You'll never leave this ship alive, cutthroat!"
