Can you get Mehrunes’ Razor if Silus dies before starting the quest?

Silus died during a Dawnguard quest because Serana killed him. I've tried searching his body, but it had nothing on it.

Nope, permadeath!

Mehrunes' Razor is a reward for the quest Pieces of the Past, which may only be started by interacting with Silus. In Skyrim, when named characters die, they do not respawn.

If you are playing on a console- you're never going to start the quest, much less finish it.

If you are playing on pc- go to Silus' home in Dawnstar and type the following into the console (press the tilde [~] key to open the console):

player.placeatme 240CC 1

This code will spawn a new Silus at your location.

Alternatively, you can code Mehrunes' Razor into your inventory directly:

player.additem 240D2 1
