Find Lord Woodborne within his castle

[edit] Quick Walkthrough

1. Listen to Lysandus' spirit.
2. Find either Woodborne or his diary in his castle.
3. Kill Woodborne or give his diary to an appropriate person.

[edit] Detailed Walkthrough

After calming Lysandus' spirit you learn that Lord Woodborne was his assassin. The next logical step would be to pay a visit to the lord and see how well he likes a little taste of his own medicine (he-he, evil grin).

[edit] Finding Lord Woodborne

This quest is the last in the Lysandus series. Having successfully finished it, you have completed half of the original mission given to you by the emperor. All that is left now is the totem series of the quests. Go into the 2 side rooms pulling levers until the ramps come down. At the top of the ramp, go through the door, go through the next door, the path bends left, then bends right. Go straight through a 3-way intersection, go straight through another 3-way intersection. The path bends right, go through the door, go through the door, it bends left, it bends right. Turn right at the 3-way intersection. Go straight through the 4-way intersection, at the bottom of the stairs turn right. The path bends right, turn left, turn left, turn right, go through the door. Turn right, turn right and the journal is on the table. Here at the end, there is an elevator at the corner. I think there is three levels on this elevator with the middle one on your right being blocked by a stone wall. Take the elevator down then back up all the way. On your way back down to the blocked passage, you'll notice that the passage is open and a creature is there. It's the up and down action of the elevator that opens the passage.

[edit] Fighting Lord Woodborne

Lord Woodborne looks like any other knight (sometimes even a female knight), so be careful. When you first strike Lord Woodborne, he casts three spells: spell reflection, shield, and heal. If you are a spell caster hit him with all kinds of nondestructive spells first. No matter what your skills, don't waste an item use or spell on the first attack that will inflict damage. It will just get healed.

[edit] Alternative Approach

Actually there is an alternate strategy which doesn't involve combat (if you're the shy type). Lord Woodborne has a diary hidden away in his hall. Find the diary and give it to someone. Giving it to Akorithi will do nothing. She takes the book and burns it. Giving it to Aubk-i or Gothryd will severely lower your legal reputation and generate lots of assassins. Presenting it to Barenziah, Eadwyre, or Helseth results in the arrest and execution of Lord Woodborne. Giving it to Medora, Mynisera, or Nulfaga will cause Lord Woodborne to be slain by magic. Gortwog and the King of Worms just keep the book to blackmail Woodborne. Therefore to complete the quest, you have to give it to one of these people: Barenziah, Eadwyre, Helseth, Medora, Mynisera, or Nulfaga. In the end the lord dies anyways, so why not have fun and do it yourself.

[edit] Quest Rewards

Depending on the person to whom you gave Lord Woodborne's diary, you will gain following reward:

• Akorithi: Nothing
• Aubk-i: 5x One Spellsword every one in-game minute
• Barenziah: 10,000-20,000 gold (will disappear however once the quest is over)
• Eadwyre: 10,000-20,000 gold (will disappear however once the quest is over)
• Gortwog: Should be random gold, but actually you get nothing
• Gothryd: 5x One Spellsword every one in-game minute
• Helseth: 10,000-20,000 gold (will disappear however once the quest is over)
• King of Worms: Should be random gold, but actually you get nothing
• Medora: Nothing
• Mynisera: Nothing
• Nulfaga: Nothing

[edit] Notes

• The reward you get from Barenziah, Eadwyre or Helseth will disappear once the quest is over, due an oversight in the questfile.
• It is intended for Gortwog or the King of Worms to give you a random amount of gold if you bring the diary to either of them, but actually you get nothing.
• There is a third-party patch which fixes the issues in the questfile, it can be found here.
