Detailed Walkthrough

The Arenthian knows of an art buyer awaiting delivery of his painting. He also knows that the painting is sitting in the Gallery Tower of Goldstone castle. He asks that you nick it, and deliver it to the buyer - taking a fee for your delivery service in the process.

The Gallery Tower is accessible through Goldstone's Great Hall area. The painting - Divine Impresence - is wrapped in a package on the top floor, and watched by an artist named Arentus Atticus. Steal it without him noticing, and then go to the All Flags Inn. Here you'll find Aurenius Aceli. Talk to him about deliver a package, and then confirm what he owes for delivery - 300, 500 or 700 gold. High disposition is needed before he'll pay you the higher amounts, with 500 gold needing 60+ disposition, and 700 gold needing 80+. Return to The Arenthian to deliver him his 100 gold cut, leaving you with 200, 400 or 600 gold total.
