Walkthrough[edit]
Move through the rooms, collecting pieces of evidence as you go. You will be attacked several times. In the final room, you will be confronted by a boss, who upon defeat, will challenge you to find the final piece of evidence you need. Search the various locations in the room to find it in one of them.
After leaving the manor, you will be confronted yet again by hostile Ministry Guards. Minister Zamon himself appears after they are defeated, whereupon Logan Thackeray places him under arrest.

Dialogue[edit]
Arriving at the manor:
- Logan Thackeray: You take the lead. I've got your back.
Talking to Logan:
- Logan Thackeray: Be cautious. Zamon's a smart man as well as a wealthy one. He'll have security guarding the place.
Zamon's guilty, and he knows it. He won't just have a little security; he'll have twice as much as he needs. I'll stay close.
Interacting with the door:
- Maid: Is someone out there? What do you want?
By order of the Krytan Seraph, open this door and stand down!
- Parcel delivery. I've got a package for Minister Zamon.
- Delivery? No one told me anything about a delivery.
- I just need a signature. Open the door, would ya, and I'll be on my way.
- I'm with the Seraph. We're conducting a routine investigation, and we need access to the premesis[sic].
- Routine investigation? I don't know...Can you come back after the minister comes home?
- If you don't let us in, we'll arrest you for obstruction. You want that?
- We're with the Seraph.
- The Seraph? Here? Is something wrong?
- I need a moment of your time. Can you open the door?
- I'm sorry. I seem to have the wrong address.
After entering:
- Ministry Guard: The enemy's here!
Cinematic:
- Logan Thackeray: Stay alert, and be swift but thorough. If Zamon is a traitor, we'll find proof of it here.
- <Character name>: What are we looking for?
- Logan Thackeray: Suspicious papers or letters, anything that links him to the bandit attacks. Keep your eyes open and your senses sharp.
At manor:
- Logan Thackeray: If you find anything breakable, break it. This dandy needs a few more setbacks in his life.
- Logan Thackeray: Look at all this luxury. I bet one of Zamon's salad forks is worth more than my annual salary.
Talking to Logan:
- Logan Thackeray: I've got your back. Let's search the place for evidence.
- Ready when you are.
Speaking to the staff:
- Maid: Don't hurt me, please! I don't know anything!
- Take it easy. We won't hurt you. This is Seraph business.
- Servant: Who let you in here? Where do you think you're going?
- This is a Seraph investigation. Stand aside.
- Cook: Seraph, eh? I should've known that Zamon was crooked. He's never at home, and when he is, he's always in a mood. He even yelled at me when his food was cold!
- Do you have any other information about him?
- Nope. He keeps to himself mostly, and he never talks to the help.
- Thanks anyway.
- Just let us complete our investigation. We'll see what happens.
- Maid (back garden): What? Uh, I didn't do anything.
- You're awfully nervous.
- Look, I just work here. I keep my head down and do my job. I don't know anything.
- We're investigating Zamon. Stay out of our way.
- Captain Thackeray and I are conducting a formal investigation of this household.
- Nothing unusual here, other than the fact that he's got more guards here tonight than usual. I'm not sure why.
- Thanks for the information.
- Never mind.
- Ministry Guard (back garden): Seraph? Why are you here?
- Stand down. This is a formal investigation.
- Right. This is where I'd normally say something about jurisdiction or rank. How about I just pretend I didn't see anything. How's that?
- Good man. You have a nice day.
- You seem pretty busy out here. Why not take a short break and catch your breath?
- Um, thanks. Good idea. And we'll just pretend we didn't see you at all, right?
- Right.
- If you want to guard anything bigger than a candy jar again, you'll let us do our job.
- Okay, okay. I'll just pretend I didn't hear or see anything.
- You catch on quickly.
- We're just going to take a look around. Stand aside.
- I'll just pretend this isn't happening.
- Good idea.
- That's not your concern.
Searching the manor and collecting evidence, at the Pedestal:
- Servant: All these fragile things make me afraid to turn around.
- Ministry Guard: Hey, look at this fancy cup. Think it makes wine taste better?
- Servant: Don't move! With our luck you'll break something, then the boss'll break us both.
- Logan Thackeray: I know this chalice. I was there when Queen Jennah awarded it to the Corone family. It has historical, financial, and sentimental value.
- Logan Thackeray: And it just so happens the Corones were robbed recently. How lucky that Zamon "found" their heirloom.
At the Dresser:
- Servant: Why are we even watching this place? This is the only house the thieves aren't going to ransack.
- Servant: We're paid to pretend. Do your job and act like you're guarding something.
- Servant: I've got a better idea. I'm taking a nap. Wake me when it's your turn.
- Logan Thackeray: Here's a letter from Lady Madeline, Zamon's sister. She demands that he stop leaving packages at their mother's house for unsavory types to collect.
- Logan Thackeray: She says if he doesn't stop trafficking with lowlifes, she's going to bar him from the premises and inform the Seraph.
- Logan Thackeray: This is perfect. I'll send one of my Seraph around to call her to trial. She'll have to testify, or I'll have her charged with obstructing justice.
At Zamon's Desk:
- Servant: What does he want us to burn?
- Servant: The blueprints, genius. Weren't you paying attention?
- Servant: Why bother? You always fill me in.
- Logan Thackeray: Melandru's tears—these are the blueprints of all the homes that have been robbed in your district. It looks like Zamon planned the burglaries.
Speaking with Logan: Logan Thackeray: We've got three pieces of evidence: the stolen Corone chalice, a letter detailing his connections to the black market, and blueprints of all the robbed houses.
- Do you think we have enough evidence to convict Zamon?
- Krytan law requires three pieces of evidence to even bring an accusation against a minister. I wish we had more...but yes, it's enough.
- I guess that's the best we can do. Let's go.
- I'm worried, Logan. This guy's slippery. No matter what we say, he'll find a way out of the conviction.
- We've got the evidence, and we've got Zamon in custody. If he gets away, it'll be because he's got allies in the ministry. We've done all we can.
- I guess that's the best we can do. Let's go.
- I guess that's the best we can do. Let's go.
Leaving the manor:
- Ministry Guard: Stop them!
- Ministry Guard points at <Character name>.
Cinematic upon talking to Zamon:
- Logan Thackeray: Zamon's here. Now I can arrest him for his part in this, and he can rot in prison.
- <Character name>: Wait. Treating him like a common criminal only creates more problems-political problems. We have to do this formally. By the book.
- Logan Thackeray: You sound like Anise... but you're right. We issue a subpoena and warn the gate guards. If he tries to run, we'll bring him in.
- Minister Zamon: What's going on here? What are you doing in my house?
- Logan Thackeray: As Captain of the Seraph in the service of Her Royal Majesty, Queen Jennah, I call you to trial.
- Minister Zamon: What? This is outrageous! On what charge?
- Logan Thackeray: Treason against the crown and citizens of Divinity's Reach. Pray for Kormir's mercy, Zamon. You're going to need all the help you can get.
Speaking with NPCs:
- Minister Zamon: I will respect the authority of the Seraph and attend this sham trial of yours, but you will regret it. Until then, kindly get out of my house. At once!
- You'll answer for your crimes soon enough, Minister.
- Eitel the Unlovable: I don't get paid to talk. I get paid to hit, chop, and stab.
- I'm glad you found your niche.
- Logan Thackeray: I'll keep an eye on the good minister here. You can go. I'll see you and Anise at the trial.
- See you there.
