A Chance Arrangement

Given by Brynjolf in Riften, this is the first quest to join the thieves guild. He is located in the town square.

Objectives:

1. Meet Brynjolf during daytime

2. Steal Madesi's ring. The ring is stolen from his booth. His booth has an apprentice level lock. (Note: It is not the display case on the counter you need to picklock, if you go behind the stand, and look towards the bottom, you will notice a sliding door, pick this, and inside is the chest with the ring) If you can't pick the lock, you can pickpocket Madesi and get his market booth key. Then you can use the key to open his booth.

3. Plant Madesi's Ring. Plant it on Brand-Shei. He's sitting down watching Brynjolf talk.
