Walkthrough

While on the road north of Whiterun, the Dragonborn encounters a jester, Cicero standing next to a broken down wagon.

Talk to the strange jester

If the Dragonborn speaks to Cicero, the jester explains that the owner of the nearby farm, Vantus Loreius has so far refused to help fix the wagon and asks for help in the matter.

Convince Loreius to fix the wheel

The Dragonborn can then speak with the farmer who explains that he has refused the jester's request because he suspects no good can come of helping him. He is convinced that the jester is not only mad, but likely hauling contraband or weapons.

Report Cicero to the guard

Vantus then suggests that Cicero should be reported to the authorities (a guard who patrols the area near the wagon regularly).

Convince Loreius or Report Cicero

The Dragonborn must then decide whether to convince the farmer to help the jester, or report Cicero to the guard. Helping Cicero will mean that the jester is friendlier later in the Dark Brotherhood quest line. Turning in Cicero will mean that he will exact revenge on the farmer and his wife but carries no real implications for the Dark Brotherhood quest line.

Talk to Loreius or Talk to Cicero

If the Dragonborn turns the jester in to the guard, he/she must report back to Loreius. If he/she convinces the farmer to help Cicero, then the jester must be advised.
