Before going for the safe, it is advisable to get the key held by Aringoth. Once in the house, the Dragonborn must open the expert locked safe. To reach the door, the Dragonborn can either use the sewers, about which they find out after talking with Vex, or swim around the estate until they reach the door with the quest mark. In order to reach the safe, one must pick the expert locked door first.

If the Dragonborn has been detected, it is advisable to jump into the lake behind the house and swim for a little while until they are hidden. If the Dragonborn burns any more than three, Brynjolf will be displeased and the Dragonborn will forfeit any money reward. If the Dragonborn's equipped weapon has a fire damage enchantment, or if they are holding a torch, just walking close to a beehive will set it on fire. The easiest path to reach them is from the rocks below the northwestern side of the island by jumping on them. The easiest way to burn them is with the Flames spell or to shoot them using a bow enchanted to cause fire damage.

When the Dragonborn reaches the Goldenglow Estate, they have to burn three hives and empty the safe in the house. Before going there, the Dragonborn can optionally talk to Vex in order to discover the location of the secret entrance to the estate. Mercer will assign the Dragonborn the first job in the Thieves Guild, which requires the Dragonborn to go to the Goldenglow Estate to teach the proprietor a lesson. He is found either standing near his desk or wandering the main area. Once inside the cistern they need to speak to Mercer Frey, the Guildmaster of the Thieves Guild.

The entrance is hidden behind a wardrobe in the hallway past the bar, just off to the side of the door leading to The Ratway Vaults.

My actions there are in direct response to the owner's sudden silence and lack of cooperation with the Thieves Guild and Maven Black-Briar, one of the Guild's most important clients. My first task as a member of the Thieves Guild involves a honey operation located just outside of Riften called Goldenglow Estate.
