== Rewards ==
{{story reward|2|3}}

== Walkthrough ==
Go to the Upper City in Divinity's Reach to warn Queen Jennah for a cinematic. Afterwards talk to Thackeray, who will send you to find Sergeant Hal in Rurikton for another cinematic.

Go to Black Haven and enter the fort as quickly as possible. If you miss the doors and they close, you will attacked by a group of 8 bandits. Talk to Dansky on upper level if you get in before the bandits arrive (otherwise, Dansky will be near the doors after the fight). Bandits will attack the fort. If you hurry to above the gate you can pour hot oil down on the bandits trying to break in through the gate. There is also a cannon on the upper level that you can use to take out the mortars attacking the fort. This may be easier than trying to fight them all on foot. You must defeat all the bandits to be able to speak with Lionguard Dansky to complete the mission.

Ролик с Дженой:
:'''Logan Thackeray:''' Простите, что вмешиваюсь, Ваше Величество, но дело не терпит отлагательств. В Министерстве предатель.
:'''Queen Jennah:''' Это серьезные обвинения, Капитан. Вы знаете закон. Можете ли вы предоставить убедительные доказательства в подтверждение своих слов?
:'''<Character name>:''' Мы работаем над этим, Ваше Величество. Капитан Тервелан признался, что один из министров приказал ему раскрыть маршруты патрулирования наших отрядов врагу. Кричащие Соколы погибли из-за этого.
:'''Minister Arton:''' Невероятно! Министр никогда не предаст солдат. Я хочу чтобы расследование началось немедленно, Ваше Величество. Репутация Министерства под угрозой.
:'''Minister Arton:''' Капитан Тервелан находится под моей юрисдикцией. Я работал с ним напрямую. Я единственный, кто в ответе.
:'''Minister Arton:''' Я не виновен в этих преступлениях, Ваше Величество. Я верен вам и Крите. И чтобы доказать это, я полностью отдаюсь в ваши руки.
:'''Queen Jennah:''' TСпасибо, Артон. Блестящие Клинки возьмут тебя под защиту, ты будешь находится под домашним арестом пока мы не доберемся до истины.
:'''Countess Anise:''' Логан, я помню, что один из Серафимов ушел из отряда Тервелана, когда Отряд Соколов попал в засаду - это Сержант Хил. Он может что-то знать.
:'''Logan Thackeray:''' Хил? Если я ничего не путаю, он патрулирует западную стену Divinity's Reach. Герой, почему бы тебе не расспросить его? Я пока буду оберегать королеву.

Talking to Logan:
:'''Logan Thackeray:''' Может быть Хил ушел из отряда Тервелана потому что узнал о его делах. Посмотрим, что он сможет тебе рассказать о исчезновении Соколов.
:{{dialogue icon|quest}} ''Если он что-то знает - он расскажет.''
::Хорошо. Я хочу убедиться, что Джена в безопасности, поэтому иди сам. Найди Хила на западной стене Divinity's Reach, я посмотрим, что он знает.
::{{dialogue icon|quest}} ''I'll check in soon.''

Talking to NPCs:
:'''Queen Jennah:''' Arton served as a minister under my father, the King. He's always been supportive of my rule. Could he really be working against me?
:{{dialogue icon|charm}} ''Captain Thackeray and Countess Anise will ensure your safety, Your Majesty. I'll look into this.''
::Thank you, hero. I'm glad to know that this matter is in good hands.
::{{dialogue icon|end}} ''You'll be safe, Your Majesty, and I'll discover the truth of this. I swear it.''
:{{dialogue icon|dignity}} ''Captain Tervelan convinced us that he was communicating with Minister Arton, Your Majesty.''
::Find out everything you can. This is deeply troubling.
::{{dialogue icon|end}} ''I will, Your Majesty.''
:{{dialogue icon|end}} ''Your Majesty, I will do my best.''

:'''Countess Anise:''' Accusing a minister in front of the queen? I knew you were bold, but I didn't realize you were fearless.
:{{dialogue icon|end}} ''Not fearless. Determined. That traitor won't get away with this.''

:'''Minister Caudecus:''' You're stirring up quite a fuss with these accusations. Let's hope you find evidence to justify this commotion.
:{{dialogue icon|end}} ''I will, Minister, and I look forward to presenting it to the queen.''

:'''Logan Thackeray:''' You'd better get going. Hal patrols the eastern edge of Divinity's Reach. I'll be standing by if you need help.
:{{dialogue icon|end}} ''I'm on my way.''

=== Open World ===
Cinematic with Sergeant Hal:
:'''<Character name>:''' Сержант Хил? Мне нужно поговорить с вами о Капитане Тервелане.
:'''Sergeant Hal:''' Милостивый Граф. Я знал, что этот день настанет. Тервелан приказал вам убить меня?
:'''<Character name>:''' Нет, наоборот. Я по приказу Теккерея. Но скажите мне: зачем Тервеану убивать вас?
:'''Sergeant Hal:''' Я случайно увидел письма Тревелана к министру и...в лес. Я не задавал лишних вопросов...но боги, я знал. Я успел вовремя уйти из отряда. Вы должны мне верить.
:'''<Character name>:''' Так как Тервелан связывался  кентаврами. Кто его был его связным в Министерстве?
:'''Sergeant Hal:''' Я не знаю, но возможно знает Дански. Она была Соколом, но затем перешла в Lionguard. Сейчас она находится в Черном Ущелье.

=== Delanian Foothills ===
As the bandits attack in Black Haven:
:'''Lionguard:''' Here comes trouble!
:'''Lionguard:''' This oil should chase off the bandits at the door.
:'''Lionguard:''' We should destroy those mortars with cannon fire. I'm a terrible shot—you do it!
:'''Lionguard:''' Guard yourselves! They've broken through!

When approaching the cannons:
:'''Bandit Cannoneer:''' Gah! I told you that you were taking too long! The attack's already started!
:'''Bandit Cannoneer:''' I'm hurrying as fast as I can. You want this to blow up in our face?
:'''Bandit Cannoneer:''' Better that, than some hero comes along to foul everything up while you're dawdling.

Talking to Dansky:
:'''Lionguard Danksy:''' I don't have time to talk right now.
:{{dialogue icon|ferocity}} ''You'd better. You could be tried for treason.''
::Treason! What have I done?
::{{dialogue icon|more}} ''Tell me about serving under Captain Tervelan. Did you know he betrayed Falcon Company?''
:::I was only following orders! I knew nothing of treason! I just delivered messages
:::{{dialogue icon|more}} ''Messages that endangered the Seraph. Messages that got their patrol routes into centaur hands.''
::::Oh, Dwayna. I swear I didn't know. Look, sometimes those centaurs sell captives to slavers—human bandits—and there's a group of them operating out of a camp to the east.
::::{{dialogue icon|end}} ''I'll look into that. Now get out of my sight.''
:::{{dialogue icon|end}} ''A message? That's all I needed to know.''
::{{dialogue icon|end}} ''If you don't know, you probably can't help.''
:{{dialogue icon|dignity}} ''Your help could clear up an important legal matter.''
::A legal matter? In that case, I'll do what I can to help.
::{{dialogue icon|quest}} ''Tell me about serving under Captain Tervelan. Did you know he betrayed Falcon Company?''
:::Tervelan's a horrible man and a bully. Serving under him was no picnic. Asking questions was like volunteering for corporal discipline. We knew to keep our mouths shut.
:::{{dialogue icon|quest}} ''Is there any chance that part of Falcon Company could still be alive?''
::::If the centaurs took them captive, they'd sell the prisoners to human slavers. There's a bandit camp to the east that dabbles in the slave trade. You could look there...
::::{{dialogue icon|quest}} ''Thank you for your help.''
:::{{dialogue icon|end}} ''I see. That's everything I wanted to know.''
::{{dialogue icon|end}} ''Never mind. I don't think you can help.''
:{{dialogue icon|charm}} ''Please? You would be of such help to us.''
::It sounds important. I'd be glad to help. What do you need?
::{{dialogue icon|more}} ''Tell me about serving under Captain Tervelan. Did you know he betrayed Falcon Company?'' <small>(Same as above.)</small>
::{{dialogue icon|end}} ''Never mind. I don't have any questions for you.''
:{{dialogue icon|quest}} ''I need you to answer some questions.''
::I suppose, if it's important. What do you need?
::{{dialogue icon|more}} ''Tell me about serving under Captain Tervelan. Did you know he betrayed Falcon Company?'' <small>(Same as above.)</small>
::{{dialogue icon|end}} ''Never mind. I don't have any questions for you.''
:{{dialogue icon|end}} ''I won't bother you then.''

Cinematic after the attack on Black Haven:
:'''Lionguard Dansky:''' Those bandits caught us off guard, but they didn't steal anything. It was as if they just wanted to kill people.
:'''<Character name>:''' I suspect they were here to kill you, Dansky. I need to speak with you. I'm investigating accusations of treason related to the fall of Falcon Company.
:'''Lionguard Dansky:''' You have no idea how glad I am to hear that. I always suspected Tervelan was rotten, but I had no proof.
:'''Lionguard Dansky:''' Falcon Company was the finest unit I ever served with. If I hadn't been recovering from an injury, I'd have been with them that day.
:'''<Character name>:''' You must know something. Tell me: did you ever see Tervelan meet with a minister?
:'''Lionguard Dansky:''' No. My job was to deliver messages for the Seraph. The ones I brought from Tervelan were addressed to "Minister Arton"—but I know for a fact that Arton never got those letters.
:'''Lionguard Dansky:''' After Falcon Company fell, I found out that the guy I'd been delivering them to didn't even work in Arton's office. Nobody'd ever seen him before.
:'''Lionguard Dansky:''' I delivered Falcon Company's last patrol route to that guy, too. After the unit was attacked, I put it together...and I just couldn't stay in the Seraph.
:'''<Character name>:''' Do you know the route they were to patrol?
:'''Lionguard Dansky:''' Sure. They were supposed to go through the Kessex Hills. Here, I'll mark it on your map.

== My story ==
{{mystory
| image = Accusation
| text = Captain Logan and I told the queen what we learned. Minister Arton protests his innocence, of course. We must gain more evidence of his guilt before we can take him to trial, so I'm going to speak {{sic|missing 'to'}} a former member of Tervelan's command that might know more. <br><br> Sergeant Hal said that he left Tervelan's command after the Screaming Falcons were ambushed. He directed me toward a Lionguard that was once a member of the company. She might know more. <br><br> Corporal Dansky, now Deputy Dansky, told me that she carried messages for Tervelan — including information on the Screaming Falcon's patrol route. Dansky believes that any surviving members of the Screaming Falcons might be at the bandit camp to the east.

== Notes ==
* The three merchants at Black Haven function as actual vendors.
* The mortar that blows up on the two bandits (after their little dialogue) can be repaired and used against enemies.
