James Hyal

Speak with Clerk Lendry at Foothold Citadel in Theramore.

Description

My brother James went with Lady Proudmoore across the sea. Last I heard, the fighting had settled down over there, and James was setting up an inn somewhere on the continent. Wherever he is, I'm sure he's doing good business. Damn fine cook he was.

I haven't heard from him for a while now--too busy with his inn, I'd wager--but the clerk in Theramore could probably point you to him. Look for him on the top floor of that keep near the middle of the city. What's it called... Foothold Citadel, that's it.

For those who have trouble trying to find the badge its on the planks that are in the Inn.

I had trouble finding them (believe it or not) howveer there are three planks inside.&nbsp two are crossed and the other one isn't.&nbsp THe one that isn't is the one with the badge on it.

Hope this helps.

Got the sheild off the fireplace and searched the hoof prints in front of the burned down building for two new quests.

For those that can't find Vimes, he's behind the table in the back in the same room as the Clerk.

Cheers

this comment might be more newer than these following comments but you are saying if you do the James Hyjal quest than its like the same as doing Guard Byron except different locations leading to the same quest by Vimes giving you the clues?

After I talked to Clerk Lendry, I got no further with this quest.... Do I just find the footprints now?

After talking with the clerk, go to shady Rest inn. It's on thr western edge of the barrens, DuswallowMarsh 29,47.

The muddy footprints are on the grass just outside the front of the inn.
The black sheild is hanging above the fireplace.

Both will give you quests to go back to Theramore.

Talk with Captain Garran Vimes right behind Clerk Lendry. He does not give you a quest, but tells you to go to the inn.

You will find a black shield there. Perhaps you can find the footprints at the same time, didn't know about them when I was there.

This quest is a bit unusual because you can pick it up in the middle without doing step 1. You get some tantalizing clues in Theramore about the 'burned down Inn' but after finding the Inn I couldnt find any clues or quests to continue the investigation.

I am suspecting that this story might be broken.&nbsp Anyone finish this story in beta.&nbsp It seems that there should be something at the burned Inn but it seems that there isnt anything to find anymore.
