I just wandered around following a hawk. Eventually I was near a ruin and just got a quest from a High Elf Stormcloak officer. So I checked his crap because that was too suspicious to pass up. I found out he was lying, saved the game, and kept killing him until I got a decapitation. Then I ran the ruins.

The quest never went away, though.
