How can I talk to Neloth without him attacking me?

Every time I walk into the mushroom area, Neloth and his assistant try to kill me. I need to talk to them for the quest Path of Knowledge, but I'm not able to.


Solution 1:

this may be because you have bounty in raven rock. trust me this has happen to me before on other missions so your best bet is to check your bounty in the main menu and then go to raven rock and either pay it off or get arrested. once you have done that try again and they should not attack you.
