So Talali couldn't execute the writ on me herself? Well, I'm glad to hear that she wouldn't up and kill me quite that easily. But I think I know what you're here for, then. Go ahead -- take the first blow. It'd be rather rude for me to attack a guest in my own home.

Thank you for getting the writ canceled. If you ever see Sovos when you're back in Bal Foyen, tell him that I hope he hasn't listened to too much of what his father says.

Sovos has to leave, it seems. For the good of us both.

Tholas Horaren was the one to order a writ on me? That fits with Sovos' description of him; he sounds like an awfully unpleasant sort. It's a real shame -- the kid won't like having to go back, and I don't blame him. But I think he'd like it a lot less if I were to be killed by the Morag Tong. Truth be told, I wouldn't relish the experience either. So you do what you have to.

What? You know Talali, and she... was assigned a writ on me by Tholas Horaren? And Sovos has to go back to Bal Foyen? I'm sorry; this is a lot to take in at once. I suppose I should have expected some kind of retaliation -- from what Sovos told me, his father was an awfully unpleasant sort. But it's a real mess either way. The kid won't like having to go back, and I don't blame him. I think he'd like it a lot less if I were to be killed by the Morag Tong, though. So you do what you have to.

What? You know Talali, and she... was assigned a writ on me? I can see why she hasn't come to talk in a while, then. But thank you for trying to help her get it withdrawn. For my sake and hers, I hope you succeed.

Hm? Oh, you know Talali? I'm afraid I haven't seen her in quite some time -- how is she doing these days?

You have been expelled.

The situation with her has been resolved.

The situation with her has been resolved. The responsibility for Gulmon Nulen's execution now falls on you, %PCName.

Speak to her to get the writ on Gulmon.

Your conduct in that situation was unprofessional. Let's not speak of it again.

Your method of dealing with her was... unorthodox, but effective.

It seems that there's been a change of plans, %PCRank. I was contacted by our client not long ago, who wished to rescind the writ on Gulmon Nulen. Talali's behavior no longer needs investigating.

Last I saw, she appeared to be waiting for something quite expectantly. Or someone. You wouldn't know anything about that, would you, %PCName?

She has the writ right now, but should be willing to hand it over. Once you have it, track Gulmon down and do your duty. He lives in a farmstead in western Roth Roryn, near the road connecting Kragenmoor and Veranis. Follow the road northwest out of Bodrum, the Nulen farm will be in the hills opposite an old velothi tower.

Come back when you know more.

I should've known that Gulmon Nulen was the farmer who saved her. She spoke of him fondly, but never named him -- I still remember seeing her walk back into the guildhall after having been missing for weeks. Obviously, I cannot condone her actions; a member of the Tong must perform the duties given to them. But I can understand that it may be best if she does not execute this writ. Therefore, I've decided that you will take it over from Talali and perform Gulmon's execution yourself.

Have you found out why she hasn't executed her writ yet?

Talali Hloril, one of your fellow assassins, has recently received a writ which she has not yet acted upon. Now, it isn't unheard of for a guild member to take their time in carrying out an execution. Some targets are difficult to reach or kill and require proper planning. But Gulmon Nulen is not one of them.
