After your conversation with Arch-Mage Traven, teleport to Skingrad and proceed to the Castle. Inside the main hall, you can engage with Hal-Liurz, who will ask you to wait for the Count. Once you speak to the Count, he will inform you about the vampire problem surrounding Skingrad. The Count will request your assistance in dealing with both the vampires and the vampire hunters prowling the area. There are several approaches you can take to resolve this issue. Let’s explore those options.

How to Handle Vampires and Hunters in the Information at a Price Quest in Oblivion Remastered

You will notice two markers on your map: one leads to the Bloodcrust Cavern, where the vampires are concealed, and the other points to Eridor, the hunter. Here are the actions you can take:

First Method: Head to the cavern and eliminate the vampires. There are about 10 of them; collect a piece of
Vampire Dust
from one of the fallen vampires and return it to Eridor to verify their demise, prompting him to discontinue his search.
Second Method: You must go to the cavern and take out the vampires. Afterward, you will see multiple markers in Skingrad indicating the hunters. Eliminate them one at a time, ensuring that no guards see the acts.

Third Method: Speak with Eridor and inform him of the vampire’s location. He will then proceed to the cavern with other hunters. Eridor won’t leave until after 8 a.m., so you may need to wait. Once the hunters are in the cavern, you can assist them against the vampires and later show Eridor the Vampire Dust.
Fourth Method: When you tell Eridor the whereabouts of the vampires and meet up with the hunters, you can wait inside the cavern as the two sides engage, and then take out any remaining threats afterward.

Regardless of the method you choose, you will accomplish this segment of the quest. Return to Count Hassildor to learn that Mannimarco has resurfaced. Bring this information back to Arch-Mage Traven to complete the quest.
