Sanguine (Quest)

One of the worshippers have informed the Hero how to approach Sanguine. They must be at a level eight and have a bottle of Cyrodilic Brandy to offer.

Walkthrough
Walk up and activate the shrine with the Cyrodiilic Brandy in the inventory. Sanguine tells the Hero that there is to be a dinner party at Castle Leyawiin hosted by Countess Alessia Caro. This party, Sanguine suspects, will be as "stuffy" as Alessia herself, so he sends them to liven up the party with a spell called Stark Reality which you are to cast on the Countess and her guests.

Castle Leyawiin
Fast travel to Castle Leyawiin and walk over to the dining room. Depending on the time of day they won't be able to get in, as a guard has been posted at the door and will not leave or discuss the party. Around 6:00 PM he will ease up a little.

Ask him about the dinner party; if they are well-dressed he will let them in (nice clothes would be classified as fancy tops and bottoms, generally found when looting houses, or a nice suit of armor). They can also just raise his disposition to above 70.

Once inside the party, cast the spell so all guests (there should be five of them) are hit with it. Attempt to leave as fast as possible as they are now being pursued by guards. The inventory will be gone, since the range of the spell causes it to effect them too, they'll get it all back at the shrine.

Alternatively, if one have raised the guard's disposition high enough, he will take care of the fine for them and they can leave at their leisure. Head back to the Shrine to collect the the reward: the Sanguine Rose and the inventory in a chest behind a bench.

Trivia

 * Do not wear the cowl of Nocturnal. One will get stuck with the fine and infamy/fame of the Grey Fox.
 * If Mazoga is standing at the hall when the guards are chasing the Hero, there is a chance that they will attack her, and eventually kill her, making them fail the Mazoga the orc questline if one are in it.
 * One can complete this quest incognito with an invisibility potion and a good sneak skill. Just go to back of the room, into the dark corner. While being unrecognized in sneak mode, fire the spell, then open the inventory immediately (after the spell left the hand) and drink the invisibility potion. Now they can calmly walk out of the castle and head back to the shrine.
 * After opening the door to the dining area, one can go straight across the great hall and hide by the chair and small table in sneak mode (make sure staircase post blocks view of guard in front of throne area), fire the shot into the room until the Countess is affected. They will not be seen. Aim for the top left of the door opening.
 * You can hit the guard standing outside the door to the dining area from the top of the staircase with the spell, and he will run away. You are then free to fire the spell from the staircase across the main chamber into the door to the dining area without any guards knowing. Throw a few of the spells through the doorway from across the main chamber, eventually you'll get everybody at the table. This method will get you through the quest without being chased by guards or receiving a bounty.
 * One can choose to be captured by the guards serve yhe jail time and are still able to finish the quest. Though soon as they are released, they will receive the inventory back from Sanguine, which may over-encumber if one had feather enchantments on your armor/clothes.
 * If the journal updates with a failure that not all guests were hit with the spell, reload and remember to aim near the center of the room. It is also possible that not all five guests are in attendance; one may need to wait several hours before they all arrive (use the Wait function, default 'T' on PC, 'Back' on Xbox 360, and 'Select' on the PS3).
 * It is best to do this quest before one complete the Thieves' Guild quest Ahdarji's Heirloom, as Alessia Caro is invincible until that point. Once Ahdarji's Heirloom as been completed, there is a small chance that Alessia Caro will be killed, making it impossible to complete the Sanguine quest. The Countess does leave the city from time to time and can be randomly killed like any other killable NPC.
 * If Countess Alessia Caro is dead for whatever reason, one can still complete the quest if her body is near the vicinity of the party because it is possible to use the Staff of Worms (found on the body of the King of Worms during the Confront the King quest) to reanimate her. Then get her to follow into the dining room and before the effect wears off, cast the spell onto the guests then once or twice onto her animated body. It bugs the game into completing the mission. Obviously this method is not inconspicuous so expect the guards to attack. The countess will simply ‘die’ again once the effect has worn off, but her animated body will try and defend the Hero if any one attacks them – perfect diversion for running away.

Bugs

 * There have been reports of quest items not appearing in the chest. If this happens, simply press "X" (Take All) while accessing the chest, and one will recover such items.
 * Sometimes only 4 of the 5 guests will appear. If one use the spell without all 5 present, the quest will fail.
 * Sometimes the Hero will be unable to leave the room the dinner was in.
 * Sometimes the Hero will be unable to open the door to the dinner hall.
 * Sometimes someone exits the dinner room, allowing the Hero to get inside without getting stopped by the guards.
