Town Guide (cont.)

Tatalia

Tatalia is a human-held territory ruled by Lord Markham. Markham is a politician at heart. He is nice to you when he needs something from you, specifically offloading the volatile Harmondale territories to unsuspecting peasants like yourself, and then contemptuous when he doesn't need you anymore. Nevertheless, you must come to Tatalia on several occasions to solve several quests.

Areas and People of Note
Lord Markham's Manor: Lord Markham's Manor is the destination for two quests. In one of them, you get to rob the snobby lord blind. The manor is located in the southeast of the main town. Inside are swordsmen and tougher initiates of the sword. The first quest that takes you here is the "deliver the letter" quest you receive from Norburt Thrush. Bring Norburt's letter to Lord Markham, and he will give you what you want, King Parson's quill. Return the quill to Thrush, and you will be rewarded. This quest only requires you to speak to Lord Markham, so you need not worry about his thugs.

The second quest is Bill Lasker's thief to rogue promotion quest. To prove your worthiness to Lasker and earn a promotion, Lasker tells you to steal Lord Markham's vase. When you enter the manor, go through the door on your left. You must fight a bunch of initiates of the sword and swordsmen. If you win here, go right and enter a room with a fireplace. Above the fireplace is the vase. Be careful. It's trapped. Once you successfully steal the vase, hustle back to Lasker in the Erathian sewers for your promotion.
