Under Watchful Eyes
Briar Sloughs
Overview
Mert was caught by the soldiers and taken to Stoneward Post for questioning. I need to speak with him, maybe help him get out of there… But it won’t be easy. The place is heavily guarded.
Objectives 4 steps
- 1
Get the key to Mert's cell
It's disgusting what they did to poor Mert. I should at least try to free him from that damn cell, but I must find a way to get the keys to the cells. The overseer should have them.
- 2
Free Mert
I've got the key to Mert's cell. Time to free him.

I freed Mert from his cell. Now I need to get him out of Stoneward Post safely.

Retrieve your weapons
The soldier at the gate of Stoneward Post confiscated my weapons. I need to retrieve them.
Recorded outcomes 4 endings

- I was too late to save the miller. May his soul rest in peace.
- I was not able to finish rescuing Mert as other things took priority.
