Wanted so much to play this, but I'm unable. I tried for 2 hours last night to get it to work(yeah idk how that happened either, probably my stubbornness.) The first option didn't work, brutus would just go stand back by the barracks. The other options worked, I was able to get enslaved. That's after I CTD'd about 7 or 8 times first. Literally. I would have 3 minute load times getting into whiterun(I presume because of all the naked women using CBBE textures?) The load times outside of whiterun were normal. When I did get enslaved, I tried to talk to zaied and it worked after the third time, so I went fetch him the beads and got to run loose for a while. Keep in mind, though, if I would open the menu, check my items, etc, I stood a very good chance of CTDing. I'm not sure if this is because of conflicts in whiterun or just because of the massive load this city was putting on my system. In all I probably CTD 25-35 times, completely unstable for me. Starting from a new save did not make the first option work for brutus. I'd like to know what you guys think about all those CTD's. Was it simply too much for my system to handle? I was running this + slavegirls + inconsequential npcs + enb + texture and other mods on a gtx 760 8gb ram icore 930. After about 15 minutes of running around and looking down on the city from the stairs of death(bad spot from dragonsreach,) my system was roaring. I can post my load order if you'd like to search for conflicts. One thing to note is I'm not criticizing your mod at all, what worked was great, I'm just letting you know the experience I had.
