Description: 

I recently played the old ebonhearth mage guild quest "Guar and Guards" ( https://www.tamriel-rebuilt.org/claims/guars-and-guards ). At some point in the quest, I am supposed to

Spoiler: Highlight to view
kill a guar that is mentally linked to a guard. However, as I was worried this would result in the death of the guard, I first attack the guar (with a dagger). That guar attacked me (being unable to go thought the door), and I want to see the guard. All I saw was his usual dialogue that he want to eat.

 

I'm not sure that this kind of stuff should be considered a bug, but it's something unexpected and that would probably question other player in the future.

Closing for now. If the guard

Closing for now. If the guard doesn't die if you kill the guar, you can assume that attacking the guar doesn't affect the guard either. This addition, which almost none of the players will notice, is relatively hard to implement. Besides, the quest might be reworked in a future OE MG redo.
