4 – Thief Wenner

Wenner’s task is to find and disarm a trap in the room. The trap is right in front of him. Disarm it for an emblem and 35 AP.

Regardless of how many emblems you have, you will be accepted into the guild, A Novice of Phex will be closed and your personal travel chest will become available upstairs, containing 1x Oneberry Juice, Fables from the Kosh, Locksmith Knife and Shadow Robe.

Three robbers will accost you. Either pay them 2 ducats or fight them.

Two guardsmen are patrolling around this area. Avoid them or talk your way past them with a succesful Fast Talk or Seduce talent check. Getting past them without a fight nets you 35AP.

8 – Break Into the Warehouse

Pick the lock on the door for 35 AP.

9 – Look Around the Warehouse

Check the boxes. Don’t bother trying to take anything as Bardo will have you put it back. Two guardsmen, Pagol and Halden, will catch you in the act. While Pagol goes off to get the harbormaster, you can fast talk/bribe (5D) or intimidate Halden and escape for 35AP. If that fails, you will have to fight Halden and then 3 thugs to escape, netting you 35AP.
