Fuandrec is a breath of fresh air in this house of tears and melancholy - very angry air. She needs you to find someone, and quick.

— In-game description

Steps

• Find a slipshod wayfarer.

• Report to Fuandrec.

Journal

• Fuandrec is a breath of fresh air in this house of tears and melancholy - very angry air. She needs you to find someone, and quick.

• Fuandrec's feckless cousin is late for a burial, not the first time he has failed to mark the time. There is naught to do but for you to look for a suitably slipshod person near Halatali.

• Near the ruin of training grounds for coliseum beasts, you encounter a pair of coliseum beasts about to sup on a wayfarer. Rather than wax philosophical, you dispatch the dullahans and save Fuandrec's cousin. Report the happy news to her.

• You speak with Fuandrec and tactfully leave out mention of corset lacing. However, judging from her own barbs, they are a two of a kind.

Dialogue

Accepting the Quest

Fuandrec: Where is that turnip-head? We have already waited some hours for my cousin, and still he dallies Thal knows where. He is ever late, I do not not understand why he cannot simply depart early!
Fuandrec: Still, I confess, I am fond of the fool. I would go look for him but his route winds close to the Halitali training grounds, and they say 'tis a romp of beasts there—beasts of the most dangerous kind.
Fuandrec: You are an adventurer, and surely this is the sort of thing that, oh, I don't know, makes your blood sing, heart boil, or some such piffle. Will you look for my feckless cousin?

Find a slipshod wayfarer

Slipshod Wayfarer: Thank you, thank you, and thank you thrice! Saw those rather nasty brutes coming and thought...well nothing much really beyond "AAARGH!" They really should take old Halatali down—the place has absolutely gone to pot.
Slipshod Wayfarer: Oh, look at the time. Mustn't keep the burial waiting too much longer. I s'pose my cousin Fuandrec, she of the overtight corset, is none too pleased.

Reporting to Fuandrec

Fuandrec: Oh, thank you! He is absolutely incorrigible, but to think we might have had to bury him as well! Then again, that's one burial he wouldn't have been late for. There's a thought.
