Summary
[Ilsola receives a mysterious warning]: run. She later discovers her house, and another, have been marked with a yellow X.
~~
A guest lecturer, the elf Katillios Esh'Na'Vellus, spoke at the recent [Mist Harbor Library Lecture] about Choice. A straight forward lecture about the ramifications of making decisions, and owning up to them, until Katillios delves into her painful history and the cause of it: a mysterious warlord that she is enraptured to.
~~
Many messages intended for Ilsola have been getting reverse pickpocketed into the containers of Mist Harbor adventurers. These messages contain confusing, and inaccurate, frustrations towards the Mist Harbor administration (namely Ilsola). However, a deeper investigation of these decoy messages reveals hidden information with a continuation of the dire warning: the warlord is coming, and we should prepare.
Further deciphering revealed indication of a traitor among us, a friend helping the message author, a strange magical quill purchased from an old man a day before he was murdered (likely the instrument used to create the messages), and an artifact of some kind that is powering the warlord to impossible feats.
The current plan is to mobilize the Mist Harbor Militia, remain vigilant in hopes of catching the note writer and their friend, and meet again in several days time.
Until then, seek out Akenna and Rohese on how to help the Militia, keep your gaze wandering and report buildings marked with an X, and inform Ilsola of anything strange you spot!
Coming Up
- A Meeting with Ilsola, Part Two: Thursday the 28th @ 8pm EST (QST)
- Militia Patrol with Akenna: Friday the 29th @ 8pm EST (meet at the Safe Haven)
X Marked Locations
- Ilsola's house (not found in game)
- A house nearby to Ilsola's (found in game)
- Collectibles Shop
Note Messages (expand to see the secret message)
| Administrator, your stance on these issues has left much to be desired! You know where to reach me, and I suggest you do so without any further delay, before this matter gets completely out of hand! |
I hope this works... I bought this crazy quill from the old man the day before he was murdered, so I didn't get much training or anything, and of course I had to keep it hidden... I have to try and get word out, and this is the only way I can think of to do it safely. The town is in terrible danger. He's coming, and soon! You have to prepare! I hope this works... I can't have another one on my conscience... |
| Administrator, your cousin directed me to you, suggesting that you would be the one to resolve the issue with one of my customers. If it is convenient, I would like to request a meeting as soon as possible so that we may go over the particulars. |
Administrator, you do not know me, and we are unlikely to ever meet, but I must warn you of a terrible danger approaching your city. I have procured this quill, and hope that I understand it well enough to make my message clear. I... am a prisoner of a mighty Warlord, and he has set his sights on Mist Harbor. I am unsure of his time frame, or what exactly his plans may entail, but I do know that he is coming, and that you must make preparations! I have no idea if this will be intercepted or not, so I will be sending as many letters as I can, through a... friend on the Island. This friend is taking a great risk by assisting me in this, but they and I both agree we cannot witness another ransacking if we could possibly prevent it. The... friend found some information about those you are more familiar with, and will be attempting to pass messages through them as well. Please, Administrator, take heed and take actions to protect your city! |
| Administrator, I simply must protest this treatment! My daughter was fully within the law, and it was the shopkeeper that was out of line! You surely must know this, and I cannot for a moment guess at what your true game is. Be warned that I will not sit by idly while you ruin my family's name! |
Jaston, I beg you, please guide this missive to someone who can help! Administrator, you must take action. He is coming, and he will loot your city, leaving nothing but carnage in his wake! I have seen it happen too many times, and I could not sit by and watch it happen again... He will likely have a spy already in place. It's how he works. He will either place someone or send his... emissary to do so. I hesitate to write her name for fear this is intercepted, but you would know her by her manner of speech. |
| Administrator, this is sixth time I have written you, and I'm afraid I must insist you cease avoiding me. The fact is that the smell from that awful place is driving us all crazy! Surely there must be something you can do! |
I beg you, Administrator, take action. I cannot stress enough how much danger your city is in! When he comes, nothing can stop him. That damnable artifact... Prepare, Administrator. Marshal your forces and perhaps you can put up large enough of a fight to convince him to pass over you and turn his attentions to his next target. Though I must caution you... none have succeeded in this before. Make your plans, and swiftly! |
| Please deliver to Town Administrator Ilsola. She has been dodging my requests for a meeting, and I am willing to go to great lengths to secure the meeting she promised me to discuss the taxation of the merchants of Mist Harbor. She knows how to reach me. |
He's coming. I hope you are able to decipher this in enough time to stop it, but he's coming. I can't be too obvious, or it will be my head on the block next. He enjoys that too much, and would likely get an even greater thrill out of doing it to me. You have to prepare... or flee. I don't know which. But I had to warn you! |
| Administrator, I would like to schedule some time to speak with you about immigration. It's simply unconscionable to let individuals move here without any vetting ahead of time! Why, we could have a traitor attempt to gain citizenship, and they would be welcomed with open arms! This cannot stand, Administrator. |
I know you have no cause to trust me, but there have to be steps you can take? Beef up the militia? Marshal your town guard? Hells, evacuate?!? He's coming, and I know how he works... how could I not? He already has someone in place, and they will be tasked with choosing targets and making sure the way is clear for his arrival. This will be someone you wouldn't expect, and they'll be doing their best to blend in... Stop the traitor and you might have a chance! |
