Detailed WalkthroughEdit
Sir Hughes is finding it hard to believe that Dame Falhut was acting alone in her plot to kill Duchess Lakana. However, he can't discuss this matter inside the castle, so he asks to meet you at his home after he's done checking up on the Duchess.
As he says, his house is past the market, on the other side of the keep from Dame Falhut's. Head inside, and find out all is not as it seems...
Envoy Darima sits tied up on the floor in his house, and she will ask if Sir Hughes sent you to kill her. When she realizes you're not about to do that, she will turn her attention to Lakana's safety. Telling her that Sir Hughes is going to check up on her sends her into full-blown panic. She explains that Sir Hughes is crazy — something about his dreams and a journal he keeps.
Go ahead and untie her. She will run off to warn Lakana. Before you go chasing after, find Sir Hughes' Journal on the table. He has been having nightmares for weeks now, dreams that he believes are actually visions foretelling the destruction of Alcaire Castle, and a revolt led by the Duchess herself.
Return to the castle. As the doors close behind you, you'll hear a cry: "By the gods! They've murdered the Duchess!"
Lakana lies face-down in her room, a sword bearing the sigil of the Knights of the Flame deep in her back. You are too late. Darima stands nearby, clearly distraught, and Duke Nathaniel kneels over his now-dead wife. After you have confirmed Lakana is gone by examining the body, talk to the Duke. He will be disbelieving, but will give you Alcaire Banneret's Helm and a small amount of gold. Continue the conversation to receive the next quest, Tracking Sir Hughes.

- Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
- Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
