Another Quiet Knight in the City

What to prepare

Nothing to gather: a patrol in Astrub and a fight that can be done in a group. The quest is reserved for Forgelances.

The 12 quest steps

1. 1Talk to Yvain Dyktev

   Dialogue[4,-19] · Yvain Dyktev

   In the Astrub council tower, go upstairs and take the stairs on the left: this is the room of the order of the Astrub Knights. Before accepting you, Yvain wants to see what you're worth: he sends you to earn your spurs with Andre Galaad, one of the order's best members.

   Dialogue

   1. “Ask to join the order of Astrub knights”

   

2. 2Join Andre Galaad

   Movement[5,-16] · Andre Galaad

   In the market square south of Astrub, Andre explains that he prefers to help the townspeople rather than go adventuring. Your initiation: patrol with him to the east and south of the city.

   Dialogue

   1. “Express surprise that he never wanted to go explore the World of Twelve”

   

3. 3Patrol in front of the library

   [7,-19] · Andre Galaad

   In front of the Astrub library, talk to Andre. He appreciates the quiet and the books of the place, gets along well with those who work there and doesn't hesitate to throw out noisy people.

   

4. 4Patrol in front of the jewellers' workshop

   [6,-15] · Andre Galaad

   In front of the jewellers' workshop, Andre explains that its precious stones attract bandits. Today, everything is calm.

   

5. 5Patrol in front of the grocery store

   [1,-16] · Andre Galaad

   In front of the grocery store, Andre explains that the owner is often targeted by customers who don't pay, hence the frequent patrol visits.

   

6. 6Question the Astrubian Mercenary

   Dialogue[1,-16] · Astrubian Mercenary

   On the same map, ask the Astrubian Mercenary whether he has seen anything suspicious. As far as he's concerned, everything is normal, and he takes the opportunity to tease the order's newbie.

7. 7Examine the barrels with Andre

   [1,-16] · Andre Galaad

   Talk to Andre again: orange marks on the ground make him think the barrels in front of the grocery store contain smuggled mead, a drink produced in small quantities by the Albuera settlers. He tastes it: nothing like the one from the barracks.

8. 8Expose the Astrubian Mercenary

   [1,-16] · Astrubian Mercenary

   Ask him about the barrels. He gets tangled up and admits to a bribe: a gang of Srams dropped them off last night, to sell them to the Vilinsekts. In exchange for a keg for himself, he reveals where the bulk of the stock is.

9. 9Question Jim Fleps

   Dialogue[3,-16] · Jim Fleps

   At the mead shipment's location, question the Sram. He realizes the mercenary has talked and orders his henchmen to attack you.

   Dialogue

   1. “Ask him about the barrels behind him”
   2. “Get ready to fight”

   In a group, take the second choice instead, “Step back to take stock of the situation”: the quest updates for everyone and the fight only happens once.

   

10. 10Defeat the smugglers

    Combat[3,-16]

    The fight can be done in a group, and Andre Galaad fights at your side. His spells: Chivalry gives him 2 MP for 1 turn, 300 shield points for 2 turns and the Unlockable state for 1 turn; Hot Iron hits for 400 Fire in a diagonal cross of size 2, up to 2 range; Heroic Charge pulls him onto the target, hits for 270 Earth and pushes back 5 cells, in a line up to 5 range. The Armed state indicates that he is carrying his lance.

11. 11Talk to Jim Fleps and Andre again

    Dialogue[3,-16] · Andre Galaad

    Talk to Jim Fleps again: he admits defeat, but disappears as soon as you try to take him away. Then congratulate Andre, who stays to watch over the barrels and sends you to inform Yvain.

12. 12Make your report to Yvain Dyktev

    Dialogue[4,-19] · Yvain Dyktev

    Go back to the order's room. Since Albuera produces little mead, Yvain suspected counterfeits would appear: he will have the stocks destroyed and thanks you. The quest ends.

    Dialogue

    1. “Make your report on your patrol”
