The Holy Spirits

Locate the bagman, and do your best to follow him without being detected.

The Hodunks have asked you to follow the bagman to the Zaford clan’s secret money stash. Descend the stairs to the main floor of The Holy Spirits and wait near the bar for the bagman to make his appearance—he’s the leprechaun the Hodunks referred to. Watch the bagman open the locked door beside the bar, and stealthily follow him through the storeroom. Make sure to remain out of sight at all times, as he’s a skittish little fellow. Keep your distance, and don’t make any sudden or loud movements. Wait for him to drop down the hole around the corner, then follow after him several seconds later.

Drop into the cave and slowly, cautiously, head up the path after him. The cave winds its way uphill and around the corner to the right, but you must make another small drop to continue on. Give the bagman several seconds to get ahead so he doesn’t notice you jumping down after him. Wait for the bagman to begin rummaging in the money boxes at the end of Wee Ale Cavern, then open fire on him. He won’t mount much of a fight, but he does pack a sizable shield. Use Shock weapons to drain his shield, then set him aflame. The bagman then drops his key along with some money. Gather up the key and cash, and take a moment to loot the 10 nearby chests (and many boxes) for additional money.

You’ll need to use the key to escape Wee Ale Cave, as there aren’t any ladders leading back out the way you came.

Use the bagman’s key to unlock the exit. A ramp soon lowers into position, affording you a way to the higher ledge, right near a rare chest. Continue the clockwise lap through the cave and climb the ladder back to the storeroom. Mick and the other Zafords won’t have any idea you just wasted his only surviving son. Hop back into your Light Runner, and return to Jimbo Hodunk in The Dust for your reward.
