The character that gets the bugged city does not have a bounty anywhere. Not involved on either side of civil war. She is a werewolf, but only has killed some hostile forsworn as werewolf anywhere near Markath.
When she first entered Markath, I witnessed Weylin slay Margret in the market place as is supposed to. Weilyn was killed by guards that time. Then got the note to meet the Forsworn conspiracy questgiver at Talos temple, but did not read it and the guest was not started in journal yet. Then went to the general store by the market, came out, and Vigilant Tyranus, the House of Horrors/Molag Bal questgiver, runs up and attacks me. Guards dont mind one way or other.
He was politely saying his "exuse me, have you seen anyone..."etc & "thankyou for your assistance" lines while attackin,
! Ok I tought only the Horror House quest is bugged...Reload....
This time I killed Weilyn, and when given the note I red it and got the first stage of the Forsworn Conspiracy in journal.
Tyrannus did not show up anywhere. The general store by the market was closed on that try, though open with previous load.
Then I went to the Understone keep and there the first guard talking with the priest by the entrance was peacefull, but Jarls housecarl (or a guard ?) up by the Jarls throne was allready waving a sword propably before even seeing me, then the Thalmor, the Jarl and bunch of other guards near the jarl all charged at me!
Well well, I even though my wearing some forsworn equipement had something to do with it,and reloaded outside city, took of forsworn stuff , that time let the guards kill Weilyn and red the quest note. Tyrannus showed up again and attacked.
I used console to just disable Tyrannus who cant be killed even with console, being essential.. Went to Understone, to find a bunch of hostiles there like before.
I then made many reloads from location of khajiit merchants camp outside Markath, and one a bit further away by the Lover stone, same results, only difference Vigilant Tyrannus sometimes showing up and sometimes not, but allways hostile if he does. No-one else in the streets of Markath seem to be hostile.
So, I think this bug might have to do with the Forsworn conspiracy and Cidhna mine quests,is the game acting like I was near the end of Cidhna mine quest maybe?
I dont mind if I cant do the Forsworn conspiracy questline or the Molag Bal/house of Horrors with this char, and could just disable Vigilant Tyranus without much harm to the game I guess, but Id like the understone Keep non hostile, and have open other quests and the possibility to buy the Markath house even. Any advice/safe to use console codes to pacify the NPCs but leave them in game as unglitched as possible would be very welcome!
Maybe some way to try finish the Forsworn/Cidhna mine quest chain by console or just individually make every hostile peacefull and have their other quests again? Thanks for reading and for any advice!
