Kovan Davethi at the Andothren docks approaches you with a small job: deliver a package to Nolus Atrius, and tell him that it's from a friend in Balmora. Kovan will seemingly admit quite openly that it's a bribe for the magistrate, and that he just wants to use you as a go-between so he doesn't have to go to the manor district himself. He will give you a very small payment up-front, and say that you will get more after you've done the delivery.

A claim for polishing up the existing Andothren Dwemer ruin interior.
