I just finished with Mzulft and have found out where the Staff of Magus is. So great, I'll just head over there and pick it up, except the quest marker has me going back to Windhelm to report what I've found out.
So I'm thinking the heck with that I'm going to go straight and get the staff and then just bring it back. I'm not fast traveling at all so I don't want to be running back and forth needlessly.
My concern is: will this mess up the questline? And is there something that I need from the College in order to get the staff?
