I once did that, just to see what Delphine and Esbern would give me. And WHAT did they give me?! Nothing... Just that you have to daily run to a random dragon den to kill it using a small group of Blades that you can't even really control to make it "Less Difficult". Isn't killing dragons easy enough to do on your own?

and that, is why I love the pc community. mods can fix everything.

You can defy the order, no matter which platform you're playing on

yes, but on pc you can just defy them without any repercussions, unless that was changed on the other platforms too. I'm not trying to be one of those "PC IS THE MASTER RACE" people, just a nice perk i got when i decided to go with skyrim on pc.

I just ignored that mission.....did I miss something by doing so?
