Background[]
Isran asks the Dragonborn to find and destroy the vampire masquerading as a Visiting Advisor to the Jarl of a radiant city; however, to avoid slandering the Dawnguard's name, permission must be gained from the Jarl to kill the creature or the guards will see it as murder. If you do kill the vampire without permission, you will complete the quest, but you will have to face the consequences if you are caught doing so.
Walkthrough[]
Speak to the Jarl and explain the situation, to which they will state that proof is required before any action can be taken. Locate the Visiting Advisor, who can typically be found loitering in the main court. Pickpocketing his orders will reveal his true nature, though this carries the risk of being caught and getting a bounty upon failure. Doing so when directly nearby any guards or the Hold's Imperial or a Stormcloak commander will cause an immediate arrest, thus this should be avoided when in close proximity to them.
Give this note to the Jarl and they will allow the Visiting Advisor to be killed without intervention from the guards. Once he is dead, return to Isran to complete the quest.
