I'm glad Blizz left this one intact. It's about the best short story line in the game. Shows that a there are consequences to things that happen.

Just wish there was a way to converse with Jim after you have completed the quest line. You know something like buying him a mead. Or even better, maybe doing something to help him get back on his feet - like helping him find a purpose again or something.

Anyway, still like this one!

Here is what you hear from Lynn and Jimmy when you put the wreath on their faily monument:

Lynn Hyal says: James? James... No, you're not James, but I know who you are...
Lynn Hyal says: You're the one who tracked down the brutes who did this to us.
Lynn Hyal says: I tried so hard to tell Jim... to tell anyone... who was behind this, but I couldn't find a way...
Lynn Hyal says: Thank you for helping us and for helping Jim. If you see him, tell him little Jimmy and I love him and that we're waiting for him.
Jimmy Hyal says: Mommy, when will we see Daddy again?
Lynn Hyal says: I don't know when we'll see Daddy again, Jimmy, but I know he loves you and he misses you very much.

(taken from this comment from old version of the same quest)

P.S. James is Smiling Jim at the local inn.

Description

I wish we had a way of letting James Hyal's wife and son know that we have brought their murderers to justice. <Captain Vimes produces a small wreath decorated with flowers.> There are some who say that their spirits will know, even if we cannot reach them. It's not much, but I'd like you to lay this wreath at the Hyal family monument. It's one of the stones in the graveyard just north of Theramore's gates.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
