Taking credit for something you didn't do... you don't consider that cheating? Dishonest?

I bought a good sword the other day. Does that mean I cheated to get it?

How'd you get the money to buy it?

Irrelevant, it's the act of buying the ashes that is dishonest, regardless of the source of the money. You can use honest, hard-earned money to pay a hitman to have your mother killed, that doesn't make you a great guy for earning the money honestly.

True, but I was just ruffling your feathers

If its an exploit, they will close it. Personally, its not clear to me either way (as are quite a few other things in this game that mechanics allow for but tend to be "grey")

Its a bug that needs to be fixed. That's all.

It is, however, a bug that allows you to contradict the storyline, so make up your own story.

How abouts...

This Duke gives me a quest to find his daughter's ashes. Well in my journey I came across a kindly stranger who had noted a group of charr tormenting, torturing and killing a young woman. He made a great effort to intervene and save her, but was unsuccessfull and ended up with some of her scattered ashes as evidence of his trial. He has also told the Duke of this harrowing tale, but as the Duke has also asked you, he must need further confirmation. The kindly stranger offers you a sample of his ashes to further convince the Duke of his daughter's fate. You then follow through and return to the Duke with this evidence for which he thanks you.

Perhaps this story is a valid quest solution as well
