Bring the Packages Back to Weasel

To initiate this main quest chain, talk to Weasel (#1), who’s sitting on a bench in front of Leonardo’s alchemy shop. You’ll learn a bit more about the shady business of the Don’s men and that a recent shipment of herbs didn’t make it to the right place. Therefore, Weasel asks you to follow Garth (#3), the alchemist’s apprentice to the place where he’s taking the weed packages.

On the other hand, Marcelo (#2) the warrior of the Order isn’t very happy about Weasel regaining control over weed business and asks you to give the packages to him instead, as an evidence against Weasel. This is covered in the quest Evidence for Marcelo.

Once you’re ready, tell Weasel that you can start following Garth. This conversation option triggers the quest Follow Garth Inconspicuously!, along with Garth starting to move from his daily routine.

Once you have acquired the packages, return to Weasel if you choose to work your reputation towards the Don. You’ll get 300 experience and 100 gold for your troubles and you’ll open up two new quests, Collect from Alvaro and Collect from Konrad.


Follow Garth Inconspicuously!

Once you receive this quest from Weasel (#1), make sure to keep your distance from Garth (#3) and follow him throughout the city.

Note that during your espionage, you’ll be stopped by Lilly at #4. This opens up another quest, A Lovely Time with Lilly, if you choose to be with her. This will cancel this quest. If you reject Lilly and continue with the mission though, you’ll receive 200 experience once you finally get to the meeting place (#5). You’ll receive slightly more experience if you choose to go with Lilly.

Once you’ve found Garth, be ready for a fight in the next quest Get Your Hands on Cutter!.


A Lovely Time with Lilly

If you paid Lilly (#4) 100 gold coins and therefore accepted her offer, you’ll cancel the previous quest and she’ll lead you to the brothel. Simply follow her and spend time with her. You’ll receive 100 experience for your efforts. Also report to Sonya in the brothel that Lilly is working outside the brothel for 25 experience.

Since you’ve lost Garth now, your best bet is to ask Weasel (#1) where could he be. Weasel, although slightly infuriated, will say that the business isn’t lost and that Garth is somewhere in the Gutters. This opens up a new quest, Find Garth!.


Find Garth!

Having lost Garth during your first stalking session and spend time with Lilly, Weasel (#1) sends you on a new track, somewhere in the Gutters. The area you’re looking for is at #5. Garth is talking to a man named Cutter. Interrupting their discussion gives you 100 experience points and advances to the next quest, Get Your Hands on Cutter.


Get Your Hands on Cutter

This quest starts immediately after you interrupt the deal that Cutter and Garth were making in the Gutters district (#5). Cutter will come across as very aggressive and attack you. Garth will join him soon and you’ll be fighting two people at once. Don’t fret though, as Garth won’t even attack you, so focus your attention to Cutter.

Once they are down, make sure to get the shield from Cutter, as it’s an excellent one. You’ll get 230 experience total for knocking them down (100 for the quest, 80 + 50 for knockdowns) and then confront Cutter about the packages. He’ll hand them over to you and you’ll receive 25 additional experience. Talk to Garth as well at #3 for some additional 25 experience. Now you’re presented with a choice: help the Don’s people and return them to Weasel (#1, the quest Bring the Packages Back to Weasel) or go with the Order and give them to Marcelo (#2, the quest Evidence for Marcelo).


Collect from Alvaro

This quest becomes available after you give the weed packages to Weasel (#1). Ask him for some more work and how to fleece the merchants. He’ll recommend Alvaro as one of the wealthy targets. To find out about Alvaro’s weakness, you’ll need to complete Walter Needs a Break. If you’re following the walkthrough correctly, you’ll have already done that by now.

Tell Weasel about the secret blade in Alvaro’s cellar. Weasel will then suggest breaking in, stealing it and selling the blade back to Alvaro. Get into Alvaro’s cellar (#6) by breaking in through a door with a lock level 1. Once you’re down in the cellar, there will be a chest with a level 2 lock. The right combination is right-left-right-left-left-right. Now talk with Alvaro and sell him the blade back. Make sure not to take any gold above the initial 100 or the quest will be cancelled. You’ll receive 175 experience total and the quest is complete.


Collect from Konrad

In comparison to Alvaro, collecting from Konrad is slightly more complicated. Go to his shop/house at #7 and ask him for a job. He’ll refuse, but then ask him about protection and he’ll understand that as a threat and force you out of his shop. On your way out however, Tilda will stop you and tell you a story about Konrad and his cows as sources of his income. The cows are located to the far east of the city.

Go the the cows and farmers (#8) during night time. Make sure that there are no guards around. Your primary target is a cow named Bertha. The farmer will attack you as well, you can dispose of him and loot him as well, but make sure to loot the cow for the skull. Now head back to Konrad’s bed chamber (upper floor at #7). The best way to enter the chamber is to climb the roof using the walls and stairs nearby and then dropping through the balcony into his bedroom. Make sure to click on his bed to leave the cow’s head on it.

Report to Weasel and find a place where you can sleep until the next day. Once that’s done make sure to get a Tell Joke scroll and cast it on Konrad. This will make him friendly again and you can ask him about the events from the last night. This will make him pay up 250 gold, along with 150 experience. Report to Weasel that he paid the dough will net you additional 50 experience. This concludes the bandit path from Weasel.


Evidence for Marcelo

This quest is the counterpart to Bring the Packages Back to Weasel. Marcelo (#2) asks you to return the weed packages to him instead, so that he’ll use them as evidence against Weasel and banish him from the city.

If you decide to give the weed to Marcelo, you’ll get 200 experience and a new quest called Weasel Hunt, which will seal Weasel’s fate once and for all.


Weasel Hunt

Having given the packages to Marcelo (#2), it’s time to tell Weasel the bad news. Approach him (#1) and tell him that the Inquisiton found out about the packages and that they are in their possession. This earns you 350 experience and prods Weasel to disappear.

Reporting back to Marcelo will give you additional 50 experience and 150 gold pieces as a reward for your efforts against the Don’s men. You can also notify Carlos (#9) about Weasel disappearing for 50 experience and 150 gold pieces.
