Did you spare Ralis Sedarys or exact judgement on him?

Judgement for what? He was a terrible investment manager and very weak minded, but I felt he was a victim of his own stupidity. The worse thing I could do is let him live, so I did.

I let Him live, on all but one of My characters.

I killed him, because he's a liar.

If you tell him that you're going to kill him, he spouts more nonsense about how we're all going to bow down to Ahzidal's will and such. When Ahzidal is dead, so obviously there's no more mind control at play. Does an innocent guy say stuff like that?

Dead as dead can be.

I let him live: my Khajiit paladin doesn't kill unless he has to

I let him live. There are worse punishments than Death, like becoming my pack mule after wasting all that money

Both ways, first character killed him, second let him off.

I think I killed him. Been a while since I have done the quest.

Azhidal was dead when he was controlling him too.

I let him live.
