I've been keeping my sights on the cemetery.
There is one ghost that walks with a purpose, unlike the others.
He is the crypt keeper, the keeper of the keys.
If we want to get to Valentine's body, we will need to go through the ghost first.

If you have Hati with you as a hunter pet, Brutus will say, "Do not disturb the dead, Hati."
Very interesting interaction. Previous times I ran this quest, I did not have Hati, and he was silent. Wonder what the story here is...

The graveyards of Drustvar are filled with the corpses of fallen Kul Tiran war heroes. We could use these corpses... strategically.

It seems that Amalia isn't taking to undeath well. I know an herb that may help. This cemetery is crawling with gravebloom. For the living, it grants the ability to see spirits. As for the undead... This may tie her back to reality just enough to be... sane.

We have the key. We found the crypt. Next, Valentine's body shall be ours. No need to wait for Lilian and Stone. Let's finish this now.
The Marshal's Grave has 7 steps, from A Stroll Through a Cemetery to Operation: Grave Digger.
