"A drunken pirate told me how Strom has this Renton and many other sailors working harder than usual. His shipmate, Renton, denies the drunk pirate entry to his house and he wants me to ask him to come out. Renton's house is in the harbor next to the drunken pirate, by the Rum 'n Rumble tavern."²

"Strom has Renton and the Red Hand guards searching for some hidden cave. Now Renton is resting in his house, and he wants me to find some spice wine to calm down his drinking mate outside.

Renton told me of a stack of spiced wine in an old crypt, in the mausoleum near the center of the White Sands Isle. He warned me of dangers lurking in the crypts there. To get to the island, I need to use a small rowboat in the northern harbor, past the crane and the warehouse."³

"I have the Wine Jug. Now I should bring it to the drunken pirate outside Renton's house, to shut him up and make him leave Renton alone. Renton said the drunkard would pay me for doing him this favor."³
