Description: 

During the Almas Thirr Mage's Guild quest to get a velk soul, Tynachos really should acknowledge you killing Hlanas (with taunt/frenzy to not immediately provoke everyone). Even just a token "Well, that saves me the trouble of expelling him." line

If I don't get to this before

If I don't get to this before someone else, can Tynachos respond: "I ask for peace and quiet and you go and murder a mer in my quarters? There's blood on all of my things! Dalyne is going to think I asked you to do this and I'll never hear the end of it!"

Can the player also get a disposition hit with Dalyne and have her respond "First you kill one of the Temple's sacred animals and then you kill one of their seconded initiates! Are you trying to get the guild evicted from Almas Thirr? I'd expel you right now if I had the authority to."

Fix: This was slightly more

Fix: This was slightly more tricky than I initially thought, because I realized that the quest completely breaks if you kill Hlanas at any point. Once you have the velk soul, Hlanas' dead body is teleported to Tynachos' room and Tynachos expects you to settle the issue with the corpse.

So I fixed that oversight, which involved modifying Hlanas' and Tynachos' scripts, and modified the dialogue so that the whole sequence with Hlanas and Tynachos only plays out if Hlanas is still alive. Tynachos and Dalyne also now react properly if Hlanas is killed after Hlanas moves to Tynachos' room, with the dialogue lines that Ricketybob posted here in the comments.
