Objectives
Plant rumors among members of House Duskmere.
- Rumors Planted (3)
- Return to Ly'leth at the Waning Crescent.
Description
Coryn Stelleris and Ruven Duskmere were close friends, but one always overshadowed the other. Now the Stelleris family stands to gain from lord Ruven's death. Handsomely.
House Duskmere will soon learn of their loss. I want you to be the one to redirect their anger and grief.
A handful of well placed rumors should do the trick.
I won't be lingering in this part of the city for long, and Ly'leth will want to know of your efforts.
Return to her when you are finished.

Notes
- Distraught Noble
- Oh my dear Ruven...
- He was such a brash child, so full of pride. I always knew he would take great power for his own some day.
- But not this... I did not see this coming. Oh my child...
There is talk in the streets that they found a silver crescent near his corpse- is that true?
- Distraught Noble says: That is the symbol of House Stelleris... but that could not be. Coryn was Ruven's dearest friend...
- Distraught Noble says: No, that's simply impossible...
- Disgruntled Servant
- I was personal attendant to lord Ruven himself. Now I am reduced to delivering wine and sweets to petulant, coddled nobles with no real power or influence.
- Pathetic.
I heard that Coryn Stelleris has begun to purchase the remaining Duskmere attendants - is that true?
- Disgruntled Servant says: Absolutely NOT! Why would he do such a thing? Has he no honor?!
- Disgruntled Servant says: ... Why WOULD he do such a thing...?
- Shamed Noble
- My lord Ruven promised such power, if he were to ascend to the palace. I believed him! I made plans!
- Now he is dead, and I cannot show my face without drawing stares. I am ashamed.
- How could one such as he fall so low?
I overheard a rather crude joke at poor Ruven's expense while visiting the Stelleris family. I can't imagine you would want to hear it...
- Shamed Noble says: Preposterous! A joke at my lord's expense? Only a madman would attempt it!
- Shamed Noble says: ... But if anyone would laugh, it would be THEM.
