Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• They Call Him Smiling JimDustwallow Marsh · Level 15-30

  I can't help it if I feel sorry for ol' Jim there. He wasn't always like that. Ran an inn out in the marsh for a while, wonderful place. Look, I don't really want to talk about it. Bring it up with Captain Vimes if you really have to.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• Lieutenant Paval ReetheDustwallow Marsh · Level 15-30

  A glint of light on the ground catches your eye from underneath the rubble. Brushing away debris and ash caked onto the object reveals the insignia of a gold anchor on white enameled on the surface: the sign of Theramore. Underneath the anchor is embossed the name "Lieutenant Paval Reethe".
