This place is so much better than sleeping under some leaky roof by the roadside.

Hm? The beetles are all gone, right?

The beetles are all dead? Thanks again, %PCName. You've really helped me out. I'll start moving into the tavern soon enough. Stop by sometime, why don't you? There should be more than enough space for you to use what you like inside, if you're in need of a place to rest as well.

If they're not all dead, I can't move in.

I know it won't get you anything, but please think about it. You must've seen things are bad for us smallfolk in Ald Iuval -- the Temple and what's left of the Waters March try their best, but this town's been hollowed out so much that when a house collapses, people just pick it apart for materials. We could really use someone to help.

Thank you. Just let me know when all the beetles are gone.

I told you why I need those beetles cleared out. Are you willing to do it?

You see this tavern just behind me? I made up my mind to move into it one day because I was sick of living under some crumbling hut just off the road. I thought it'd at least still be warm and in better condition, but apparently there was a reason no one had gone in before. The whole place is full of beetles with a nasty bite. I don't have anything to reward you with, but would you be willing to clear out the beetles inside?
