Canthar's Favor

If the hero accepted Canthar's offer for a pass at Lobart's Farm, he now owes Canthar a favor. Even if the hero declined earlier, Canthar approaches him again in the city. The task: plant a note on the merchant Sarah and report her to Lord Andre. However, the hero can also choose to betray Canthar instead and report him to Lord Andre. If the hero refuses the task entirely, Canthar spreads the word that the hero is a convict, forcing a 500 gold payment. This quest is unavailable if the hero never spoke to Canthar at Lobart's Farm or revealed he works for Lobart. Canthar is released from prison in Chapter 3 regardless.

Walkthrough

There are two paths to complete this quest:

**Path A: Help Canthar**
Plant the note on Sarah and report her to Lord Andre (100 XP + 100 gold). Canthar takes over Sarah's market stand and rewards you with 100 XP and a Ship's Axe.

If completed in Chapter 1, Canthar adds these weapons to his trading inventory: 1 Rapier, 1 Battle Staff, 1 War Hammer, 1 Short Sword, 1 Wolf's Tooth, and 1 Fine Short Sword.

If completed in Chapter 2 instead, he stocks: 1 Staff Club, 1 Stone Breaker, 1 Long Sword, and 1 Bearded Axe. Only one set is added, not both.

**Path B: Betray Canthar**
Report Canthar to Lord Andre instead (100 XP + 100 gold). Sarah keeps her stand and rewards you with 200 XP and a Pirate Saber.
