What to do
Description
Tightening her grip on the citizens is something I expected of the Queen but forcefully ascending the population of the Burrows is too far. Queen Ansurek has fallen far greater than I ever expected. I can't sit idly by and watch her lead our people to ruin. The time is now. We must kill Queen Ansurek and lead the people to a brighter future. Otherwise who knows how far she will fall.
