Location: Oxenfurt Port Characters: Redanian Soldier Recommended Item: 50 Crowns |
Oxenfurt is now more or a less a garrison for the Redanian army—a fact that becomes readily apparent when you run into two guards who attempt to ask you for a “war tax.” Find them close to the fish merchant under the bridge, west of town. You can:
- (50 Crowns) Pay the cheeky fellows, and be on your way. A few days later, you can find them again at Oxenfurt’s south gate; they shake you down for more money (and afterwards, you never see them again). You can pay or refuse.
- Refuse, which causes the guards to call in their superior to accuse you of being a spy. The officer threatens to send them straight to the eastern front of battle if they continue their extortion, and you’re sent on your way.
If you refused them (either time), you can find them on the outskirts of Oxenfurt, and angry at you for getting them into trouble. You can fistfight them, or slay them with a sword. Then the quest concludes.
