Go back to Larosis. Go see Marion. Make sure you unlocked the shack back home first. She will buy something in your inventory. She may say no at first but keep pushing her to buy another item. Don't take no for an answer!!!! Then go and see Daerleena. If you steal the Metamorph picture someone might notice it's gone. Hint- Hint!!!
