UNDER CONSTRUCTION AS WE SPEAK, I LOST FOUR HOURS OF WRITING DUE TO MY BROWSER CLOSING, SO I'M SAVING MY PROGRESS.
The previous version of this guide was incorrect, even the checklist was incorrect. Currently up to the restaurant cutscene. Will finish within the next two to three hours hopefully. There's a lot of linking and writing from scratch/re-writing content.
== Progress Checklist ==
{{Checklist|* under construction}}
==Walkthrough==
===Quest start===
Speak to [[Cohen]] and he will question why you stand under his feet.
Select Option 4: "I'm here on behalf of the city guard. You needed help with something?"
[[Cohen]] feels disrespected by the city guard for sending a recruit.
Select Option 2: "So what do you need?"
You are informed that a sizeable shipment of [[Carthian Plumbatae]] has been lost. They were shipped to [[Hopeport]] on a boat named The [[Vincible]], but they were claimed by a miscreant pretending to work for [[Cohen]]. He has made some inquiries but due to being a known representative of [[Lord Brannof]], [[Hopeport|Hopeports]] less savoury characters decide to keep their mouths shut. You are to find information on who has the shipment, then report back to [[Cohen]].
Select Option 1: "Where should I start looking?"
[[Cohen]] recommends that you speak to [[Captain Shirker]] of the [[Vincible]], but also to ask around [[The Hooked Hand]] as some of the clientele there should know if there are any stolen goods to be bought. [[Cohen]] warns you to not reveal that you're a guard.
=== The Hooked Hand ===
To reach [[The Hooked Hand]], head to [[Town Square|Hopeport Town Square]] and head directly south through the [[Eel Street Bridge]] and [[Eel Street]] to reach the [[Central Waterfront]]. Head slightly west then north down the stairs to arrive at the entrance.
<u>Before entering, remove all [[Armor]] which contains the word [[Guard]] or no one will speak with you. It's best to keep this off until you need it for the fight near the end of the quest, as multiple NPC's won't speak to you with them on.</u>
Head inside and speak with [[Nelson]] or [[Wellington]], who are sitting on the table on the east side of the establishment.
Wellington asks you how he can help, before [[Nelson]] questions why he would offer if he wasn't going to help in the first place.
Select Option 4: "I wish I could find a seller of [[Carthian Plumbatae]]"
Nelson states that they don't sell exotic fruits, before Wellington recommends you try the great drinks and sausage rolls at the bar. [[Nelson]] asks [[Wellington]] why he delivered a sales pitch. [[Wellington]] states that he is paid by [[Grood the Barkeeper|Grood]] to advertise the tavern, but doesn't want to leave, and only bothers to do so if the public walk into the establishment.
You complain how hard it is to buy combat equipment these days, stating that you think Lord Brannof is trying to keep us in line, by restricting the weapon supply.
[[Harris Slant]] walks over to the table and couldn't help but overhear that you're looking for [[Carthian Plumbatae]]. He knows someone who could help. You are given a warning to respect the confidentiality of the arrangement, or things could end badly for you.
Selection Option 1: "Who is this person that can supply me?"
[[Harris Slant|Harris]] says that no one knows his real name, and some don't even believe he exists. He is known as [[The Illusion]]. He has a method of business which provides anonymity before asking you if you have heard of [[The Frequently Fresh Fish Stall]].
Selection Option 2: "I'm not familiar with it"
You are informed that the stall acts as a secret method of communication. You can stuff a [[Fetid Flounder]] with a message and send it to [[The Illusion]] directly. It's an that tastes foul, and no one normally buys them. It sits on the stall until one of [[The Illusion|The Illusion's]] operatives collects it. You might be able to catch one at the [[Overgrown Pond]].
You can now end the conversation and start heading to speak with [[Captain Shirker]] at the [[Vincible]].
=== Captain Shirker ===
Head south outside the doors of the [[The Hooked Hand|Tavern]], and start heading east over the [[Boardwalk]] to reach the [[East Waterfront]]. Head south onto the eastern pier to reach the [[Vincible]]. Head onto the boat and speak with [[Captain Shirker]] who is at the wheel of the ship.
The [[Captain Shirker|Captain]] will state that he's bored due to an accursed storm blocking him in.
Select Option 2: "Maybe I can entertain you somehow?"
[[Captain Shirker]] says that he likes good food, and he heard there's a nice restaurant near the [[Town Square]].
Select Option 1: "Why don't we go there now?"
The [[Captain Shirker|Captain]] is bored on board, and will meet you there.
=== The Delectable Dab ===
To reach the restaraunt, you'll need to enter off the western side of [[Stone Street]] which is directly north of the [[Town Square|town square]]. The quickest route is by [[Teleport|teleporting]] to the [[Hopeport Portal Stone]] via the [[Spells|Teleport Spell]], before heading south east through the [[Training Ground|training ground]].
<u>Cutscene Warning:</u> Sit with the [[Captain Shirker|Captain]] at the north western table of the restaurant to trigger an interactive cutscene.
The [[Waiter]] appears to take your orders.
Select Option 1: "Waiter can I have the chicken pie please?"
Select Option 2: "Here you go {{Currency|2760}}".
The [[Captain Shirker|Captain]] orders the same and some time passes.
