"Hey, if someone hires the Brotherhood to kill you, just ask the assassin they send to kill the person who hired them! They'll do it, and free of charge to boot!"

Yeah... no. If word of that got out nobody would hire the Brotherhood. How exactly would word of that get out? Are you going to blab the details to the masses? Also, earlier post said something about people connecting the emperor and elder council member's deaths, and assuming that the elder council member had hired the hit on the emperor. Why? Wouldn't it be more reasonable to assume that some third party had ordered the hit on both of them? After all, only the Brotherhood can say for sure if there was a contract on Motierre or not, and the Dragonborn is the Listener. The Brotherhood would only know what we said went down. Hell, it could even be spun as he refused to honor the contract. Perfectly reasonable explanation for killing him.

Also, just pointing out another issue. My character wears the shrouded cowl with mask on hits, and the damn guards still know I killed assorted people, despite doing it clean. My sneak has been legendary three times so far. When I did the Brotherhood missions, I made sure I had it in the nineties before I started the mission, with all of the perks. I had also finished the Guild quest first and took Agent of Stealth. I've stood in front of people and pickpocketed them unseen. There is literally no way for the game world to know I did the job, unless Nazir blabbed about who he assigned to the task. Hell, I wear one of the dragon priest masks when not on hits, which covers my whole face, and I'm a Khajit, and people still comment on me being pale (when I was a vamp), or having furs coming out of my ears (when I was a werewolf). They shouldn't be able to see either, but they still do.

Sorry for wall of text.

And yeah, I Killed the a-hole traitor and coward. I just didn't like his character at all, and wanted to kill him from the moment I met him.
