General Tips
- The route that Mosely and
the Pagan courier takes is
noted in the map below (figures 1 and 2).
- They will turn to look
around occasionally, so follow
far enough behind that you
don't get caught by
surprise.
- There are usually
doorways to hide in. They
may not be completely
dark, but they are out of
sight.
- Use your scouting orbs to
watch for them to turn back
around before following.
- You can only stray so far
from the letter without
failing the mission. Get
what pickpockets you can
along the way, but
remember you can go back
through the city exploring
after the letter has reached
it's final destination.
- At some point, Mosely will
drop the letter beside the
grocery store near Sparrow
St. Make sure to read the
message before the next
courier picks it up.
- Even the smallest
shadows can conceal you,
and in well lit areas, follow
far enough behind so as
not to threaten the courier,
causing them to come
looking for you.
- Conserve as many
resources as possible on
this mission (i.e. don't put
out every torch) - there's no load out for the next mission
and you'll need everything
you have.
Starting Out & Shalebridge
Road
Grab the healing potion
on the guard following
Mosely, then wait for her to
round both buildings and
head south. You can hide
near the corner of the
wooden deck. Wait until the
patrol cop passes, then
grab the archer's purse
(100 gold) and arrow, then
continue following Mosley
south. Up ahead is a wide
road where you should
pass a female peasant,
hide in the shadows and
grab her purse (100 gold),
then follow Mosley around
to Marketplace Square.
Marketplace
A guard with a purse
(100 gold) patrols out here,
and if you hide in the
doorway on the south, a
male peasant with a purse
(50 gold) will pass by,
though he may notice you.
Follow Mosley west and
hide on the corner of
Whipple Way until you can
run to the small awning,
then go north towards
North Helena Way.
North Helena Way
Once you turn north
onto Helena (be careful -
she usually pauses at the
corner before continuing
north), run ahead to the
doorway on the right before
the bridge. Usually two
cops will pass, one with a
purse (100 gold). Cross the
bridge and continue north
to Hill St. staying behind
the corners of the buildings. Hill
Street & Sparrow Street
Once Mosley turns
south toward Sparrow, she
will probably only turn
around at the corner near
the streetlight. When she
drops the letter (figure 1), read
it, drop it, then duck into the
grocery store, grab the invisibility potion and flares
behind the counter and wait
on the Pagan to intercept
the letter (figure 2).

South Helena Way
Follow the Pagan
through the dark alley, then
wait in the shadows until he
crosses the moat. Once
he's moving again, run to
the doorway on your right
and let him cross the bridge
and turn the corner, then
follow. Between here and
the Marketplace, you
should encounter a cop
with a healing potion near
the southwest corner of the
map. The Pagan will
basically round the block in
that corner and then head
north toward Marketplace
(be sure to grab the coins
behind the arches and the
loot from the house near
the sewer entry along the
way).
Marketplace Revisited
The square should be
pretty clear if you
blackjacked the cop earlier.
Cross the bridge and hide
in the corner near the
ladder (below the patrolling
archer). This can be a
tough spot depending on
timing- you will have to deal
with a cop heading south
past your hiding spot, then
one crossing to the east, separating you far enough
from the letter to fail the
mission. If this is the case,
use an invisibility potion to
get through. Follow the
pagan north, then east to
the cemetery entrance.
The Graveyard
Before the courier gets
caught by the Mechanists,
run down the alley and turn
left before the graveyard. Hide close to the left side of the door (figure 3) and
wait for the second mech to
come running out. Quickly
run to the door to keep it
from closing. Go upstairs
and jump out of the window
toward the wall (hopefully it
will break your fall a bit).
There are two cups in the
crypt to the north. You'll
need to climb up on the
crypt you just jumped over
and jump over the wall to
the left. In the cemetery
there is a crypt in the
northeast corner with a
goblet (50 goods), and a
secret entry/exit in the crypt
in the southeast corner (figure 4). From here you can
go out to the street and
finish looting the city. When
you're done, return to the
cemetery via the secret
entrance and go to the
crypt in the north with the
portal.
