Be careful after reaching the first intersection, choose the corridor going south-east (screen above) and defeat the Bandit there. You need to keep in mind that more enemies are prone to appear here. Especially look out while fighting the Bandit Plunderer, as he will probably be capable of using magic.

After the battle, follow the narrow corridor going north-east and look out as there might be a trap activated by pulling a rope - Miscellaneous: Find Finns Lute | The Bards College quests - The Bards College quests - The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Game Guide

After the battle, follow the narrow corridor going north-east and look out as there might be a trap activated by pulling a rope. After reaching a small room, look around for a chest with, inter alia, Finn's Lute (screen above). Afterwards you either continue exploring the hideout (northern room with a waterfall) or head back to the exit. Return to The Bards College to return the item to the quest giver. Inge won't have any material prize for you, But will increase all six thief skills by 1 point (Alchemy, Light Armor, Lockpicking, Pickpocket, Speech and Sneak).
