'A pleasure to see you again, Player, thank you for heeding my summons. Word has travelled to me of the events transpiring in Hytbold with Reeve Athelward. After further investigation, I now have no doubt that it was Athelward who was responsible for the crimes within Cliving.
'I believe that Athelward used Malbéort to acquire the phial of poison. He later used the poison upon his blade to mortally wound Thane Mildrith's son in a duel. He likely hid the poison in the pantry, hoping that none would discover it. When the phial was found, he stole Swithorne's dagger and murdered Malbéort in his home, covering his trail. Cetelgat and Ondesdal have both confirmed seeing Athelward at the crime scenes, but had not considered him a suspect.
'All of the pieces fit, Player...we owe Swithorne quite an apology. Speak with him and ask how we might make amends for our improper accusations.'0/1

'I am pleased to learn that the truth has been revealed, and the culprit has come to justice. Had it only come sooner! Athelward fooled us all, but his legacy will be one of shame.
'I harbour no grudges for my arrest, but might I make a small request as an amends for my wrongful accusation? I would like Walnoth to commission a memorial statue for the men who have perished defending the Norcrofts, including my brother. Will you submit this request on my behalf?'0/1

'Swithorne has handled things quite reasonably. I suspect he is pleased to know that he will soon be free again.
'His request is a fair one. I will personally see to assembling the funds for a memorial figure in Cliving. My first task will be to release Swithorne and have Captain Théodmar restore his station among the Riders. Thank you for your service to the people of the Norcrofts, Player.'0/1
