    Well, you'll have plenty of "problems" with this quest, you'll see :lol:

    They are otherwise in a warehouse. Look around better in Tarant.

    Its more a let down after all the leg work than anything. But its the most complex story in the whole game, just after the main plot, so its worth doing anyways.

    Newspaper headline?
    What's that? You sold your story to the editor?
    You must be mistaken. You see, I'm the editor.
    Muahahaha!

    Note: You haven't completed the quest.

    Its been tried. You also cant give it to the Tarantian office either. I think either the dev's forgot to finish it or some dialog option wasn't turned on somewhere.

    The Tarantian editor says that the story is to hot for him and tells you to go to Caladon.

    As soon as he takes it it disappears, it doesn't go into his inventory.

    I bet they intended to add in some other person who was supposed to take the document and do something important with it, maybe that Half-Orc back on the Isle of Despair? Somethings missing and it always bothers me, its such a good side-quest up until then.

    Tongs, you have a new mission! :D

    Chris Beddoes managed to extend the quest in Car-Arcanum. You get to track it back to Willoughsby.
