Description
My brother James went with Lady Proudmoore across the sea. Last I heard, the fighting had settled down over there, and James was setting up an inn somewhere on the continent. Wherever he is, I'm sure he's doing good business. Damn fine cook he was. I haven't heard from him for a while now--too busy with his inn, I'd wager--but the clerk in Theramore could probably point you to him. Look for him on the top floor of that keep near the middle of the city. What's it called... Foothold Citadel, that's it.

James Hyal, James Hyal... Why does that name sound so familiar? Of course! The Shady Rest Inn incident. If you have any information about what happened there, I would urge you to speak with Captain Vimes about it. He's handling the investigation.
