I did one of these a few days ago and it was OK, although a few things confused me. Namely, some times I got a (rather short) timer after killing the victim, other times I didn't (I did several tries to get a perfect run). I got the impression that you only get a timer when you are detected, even if it's only once, but in one of my tries no timer was showing but I still got a message saying that I failed to exit before it ran out. Today I got the Trader's Cove and I have additional issues.

For starters, one of the optional goals implies killing one of the victims with poison. I thought this implied equipping a poison and using my weapon, although that doesn't seem to play well with the whole stealthy assassin and the Blade of Woe synergy... So I equipped the poison (the crown one) and used weapon attacks on the victim. Sure enough, I got a message stating that I did kill the victim using poison. But on the next attempt I killed him using the synergy (with poisons equipped but with no weapon attacks) and I still succeeded in that goal.

Also, in several of my tries the alert status was raised to 3/5 or even 5/5 as soon as I spawned in the zone, forcing me to abandon the quest immediately. In fact, I stopped trying to do the Sacrament because this happened 3 or 4 times in a row, so I was unable to start a fresh run.

    You get the timer if one of the "optional challenges" is to leave before the overseer arrives.

    About the poison, I didn't try using the synergy when killing with poison is a requisite. I will try.

    And yes, the detection thing is really annoying. It also seems like the target sometimes detects me when I use the Blade of Woe on them, and sometimes they don't. I imagine they are not supposed to.
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.
