Quest Text

Bestowal dialogue 'I will tell you how my suspicions of a thief first arose: every morning, as I made my rounds, I would find things slightly moved from where they were. So slight was the shifting and rearranging that it only tickled my mind for some days. 'Then, two days ago, I laid a coil of rope in a particular position upon some other tools. The next morning, there was no mistaking it: the rope was two hands shifted to the side. 'Therefore, we must conclude our thief steals by night. Come, help me lay a trap. This part, I would not dare without your help! First we must gather supplies and lay them in the unused supply cart.' Background Having found convincing proof, Sírithon devises a plan to catch the Loeglond thief. Objective 1 Collect supplies (0/5) Supplies can be found in Loeglond. You should gather supplies to bait a trap. SUPPLIES "Supplies similar to those which have been recently stolen." Collected supplies (5/5) Objective 2 Bait the empty supply cart There is an unused supply cart in Loeglond. You should bait the cart with supplies. CART "This empty cart is the perfect place to lay a trap for the thief." Placing bait ... The trap is set The trap is set! Objective 3 Talk to Sírithon You should talk to Sírithon, who can be found in Loeglond. Sírithon: 'Good work. You are a worthy <class>. Now let us wait for nightfall.' Complete the Instance: The Mysterious Thief Objective 4 Talk to Sírithon You should talk to Sírithon, who can be found in Loeglond. Sírithon: 'The ruins called Esgaroth-of-old were once a town of the Dale-men. Very little remains, and what does is now covered over with marsh reeds and the waters of the Long Lake. Who hides in such a dreary and desolate place, and what aim do they pursue out there? I wonder! Our thief is real, but grows stranger every time we learn something new.'
