How do I complete Bound Until Death without earning a bounty?

Solution 1:

Go into the temple, up the stairs to the right and out the door up there. You'll end up on the level above the platform. They thank people for coming to their wedding, and you can tip the gargoyle up there on top of her to kill without a bounty.

Whilst this doesn't add a bounty, the husband and the in-laws go ape and try to kill you.

Solution 2:

What I found to work best thus far, was to be ungodly sneaky about it. Not as in "sneak around and try to be undetected" but as in "Use Nightingale Subterfuge" and make the groom kill her instead. :D Ofc, provided you have it, but I highly recommend you do. It was the easiest way. No bounty on my head, nobody even paid any notice of me, they were too busy butchering each other, and it's also in the spirit of the mission itself, which was to make them think the stormcloaks did it. ^^

Solution 3:

What I did was:

  • Follow her to the balcony
  • Get into sneak position
  • Nock an arrow
  • Just as I let it go hit the B button to take a potion of invisibility

Immediately jump off the balcony to get away. the trick is to use the potion before your arrow hits her. This way, you won't get a bounty or be chased.
