[edit] A Difficult Decision

Whoever you have chosen to aid will ask you to help him in a decision. He is trying to decide whether to build a Trader's Post or a Smithy and doesn't know what will suit Raven Rock better. He wants you to think it over, talk to people, and get back to him. After talking to people around town, you'll get three votes for a Trader Shop and only one for a Smith, so the choice is obvious. The trader also makes sense for the player's best interest since Solstheim already has three smiths but no general merchants.

Note: There seems to be no penalty for choosing the Smith, even if it isn't the most popular decision.

[edit] Choose Building

Return to Falco/Carnius and inform him of your decision. If you've sided with Falco he will thank you and tell you to let Carnius know of the decision. Carnius will reward you with 300 gold (and not seem very happy about it either). If you've sided with Carnius you don't seem to get anything out of the deal.
