Black Swan

Don't you realize that the Heine family is the most prominent family in all of Heine? For years they have dominated Innadril's commerce and it is rumored that their personal fortune has swelled to several billion adena. Now word comes that cargo belonging to Iason Heine, the patriarch of the Heine family has been stolen... Why am I telling you this. You can't do anything about it...

(This quest may only be undertaken by a character of level 32 and above.)

Don't you realize that the Heine family is the most prominent family in all of Heine? For years they have dominated Innadril's commerce and it is rumored that their personal fortune has swelled to several billion adena. Now word comes that cargo belonging to Iason Heine, the patriarch of the Heine family has been stolen... When he heard about the robbery, the Lord decided to use this incident as an excuse to mobilize his army to drive away the Tasaba lizardmen. Those filthy reptiles have threatened the safety of travelers for too long...

"Was he successful?"

Duke Iason Heine refused the Lord's offer, saying that it was a private matter and he would deal with it. This would be a good time to compliment the Duke on his concern for the public treasury, but, alas, I know him too well.

Anyway, I'm recruiting volunteers to drive away the Tasaba lizardmen for the Duke. He will personally give out the rewards when we are successful. If you wish to volunteer, speak up now!

"I will join your effort against the Tasaba lizardmen."

Regardless of his character, Duke Iason Heine has a point. The Tasaba lizardmen are definitely a menace to Innadril. It would be one thing if all they did was attack travelers, but now it is said they have something far more sinister planned... Take this order. I wish you luck.

How is your mission coming along? He may have many faults, but one thing you can say about Duke Iason Heine, he is not a miser. You will be well-compensated for your efforts. Still, you mustn't believe everything he says...

Oh, my! I should have noticed the captain's seal earlier! So you are here to help me... What has become of those filthy Tasaba lizardmen? Have you recovered any of the stolen cargo ?

"Here are the fangs of the lizardmen." "Here is the cargo we recovered."

Let's see... We agreed upon 20 adena per fang, correct? Then total is... this. Correct?

Return

Unless you present proof that you have killed the lizardmen I will be unable to compensate you. This has nothing to with trust. I believe what you say, I just must have the fangs. I have turned away others who lacked proof. If I were to give you special treatment there would be reprisals against me. Do you understand? Go and get the lizardmen fangs.

Return

Oh yes, that is definitely the cargo that was stolen from our trade guild. But this is not all of it. There is still much to be recovered. Please continue to look for it.

Ah, the reward. I only have a small amount of cash on me. I'll tell you what, take this bill to Head Blacksmith Roman of the Blacksmith Guild. He will take care of you.

Return

Ah, you have recovered our trade guild's wooden barrel? That is wonderful news! Where is it? Is it in a warehouse? Please bring it to me right away! ... I hope you didn't try to open it! Or send it somewhere else? Ha! Just kidding.

Return

Is there anything else I can do for you? The ranks of the Tasaba lizardmen are swelling as we speak. They must be dealt with. Please don't quit now.

Show the Tasaba lizardmen fangs. Show the wooden barrels that belong to the trade guild. Quit the task.

How can you leave us like this? Most of our stolen cargo has yet to be recovered... and, even more importantly, the Tasaba lizardmen are increasingly threatening our precious Innadril!

... Do you know something I don't? Please reconsider your decision!

Return "I quit."

OK, look, you can quit any time you want to, but you still need to be paid, right? Let's take care of that and then talk about whether or not you'll quit...

Return

You are very hard-headed! Well, as I said, you are free to go. Have a safe trip... and don't forget to come and visit me occasionally.

Hmm... This is definitely the signature of Iason Heine. What would you like to trade for it?
