Starting the Quest
Complete the bounty tutorial questline “Sweet Taste of Bounties” in the Greymane Faction quests section to continue on with “The Price of a Hangover”. It’s a short questline with two quests, starting with “The Cost of the Tab”.
Quest description:
“Yann and Naira are stumbling around, completely soaked in alcohol. Hear what kind of trouble has been caused.”
The Cost of the Tab: Talk to Yann
Yann was supposed to take another bounty while you were hunting down Ulzok. It seems that instead, he had more than one drink. Find him near the main building at Howling Hill.
After the conversation, you will receive a logging axe. Naira and Yann have drunk too much at the Inn, and Marius wants them to work for it by chopping wood. Since they’re family, you have to help out. Call your horse and follow Yann on horseback.
As always, once you arrive, he will leave you hanging and ride back to camp.
Logging Without An Axe: Go Logging 6x
Choose your axe in the tools menu and start logging. You only need 6 timbers.
Logging Without An Axe: Return to Camp
Return to camp and talk to Marius. He will ask you if you have seen Yann. This will complete the quest and the “The Price of a Hangover” questline, and “Quarrel on Horseback” starts.
