But no I have to watch prisoners and clean up their shit when they are dead, while you get to go out there and act the hero. I'm ten times the hero you are! Ten times the hero!'

Journal Text: I just wanted to get those infernal thieves tools back! Now I have to go report that Captain Aiden was a monster, and that whatever got Peters isn't isolated. This is a bit much. Is it at all related to Kiera? In any case I should return to City of Mercy and let people know whats going on.

You say, 'Hail, Duke Thanes the Righteous'

You say, '[Explain the whole story, from the beginning to now.]'

Duke Thanes the Righteous nods as you finish. 'Well this is enlightening. Shadows... My gut tells me Marlow or one of her nightmares are involved... I should have expected that. This brings me towards two statements you would probably like to hear.'

You say, 'Let me have it.'

Duke Thanes the Righteous says, 'Firstly, you acted appropriately given the situation. Your life was in jeopardy against a clearly evil and corrupted menace, and you dealt with it efficiently. For that you shall be applauded.'

You say, 'But?'

Duke Thanes the Righteous says, 'But you had issues with a superior officer and failed too report it properly. Sergeant Major Greavens was a surprise attack, but if you suspected a plot, you should have located us about Aiden. As such you will have to be punished.'

You say, 'Wait since when has he been a Sergeant Major.'

Duke Thanes the Righteous says, 'You'll find the quickest method of advancement tends to be the most terminal as well.'

You say, 'Punished? For self defense?'

Duke Thanes the Righteous says, 'Correct. A lesson needs to be taught to those below you, that no one is above the law. I shall keep your penance simple however. You will travel to Newport and seek a cobbler, Halas and seek a cook, or Underhill and seek a church supplier. Find two tasks, total, of the three and complete them. Return to me when you have done so..'

You say, 'How much do you owe?'

Tim Cobbler says, 'A little under 2000 gold coins. I... listen if you can please buy something I'd really appreciate it. It's quite a sum I have to deal with.'

I do not know how this happened... but I digress, they will be dealt with. I have but one more task for you to do.'

You say, 'Listen, when I finish this, can you assure me the return of Grants affects? That's all I wanted...'

Duke Thanes the Righteous says, 'Yes. Yes I can agree to that. You have proven your loyalty to Althuna through your actions, and your request is simple. As is mine for a Druid of your caliber. I will deal with Marlow. It is Gradalsh that needs a lesson in humility. The name is Mujush. He has been heard stalking the sewers of Newport. Those followers of Gradalsh we have interrogated claim he is a guardian of new worshippers of the god of entropy. Destroy him. It will send a clear message that we know where Gradalsh calls home.'

Journal Text: This is a bit more like it. I am to hunt down Mujush the mummy in the sewers of newport, and kill him. Then I will return to Thanes.

Note: Killing Mujush the Mummy and the mobs around them will give negative faction to Cult of Entropy. Please keep that in mind for the people who will help you on this step. a plague-bearing horror however did not give a faction hit.
