Daeva, good. I caught you before you moved on.

I have been made aware of a more serious problem than the guards you eliminated.

You may have to carry out another operation.

• "Tell me."

In the shadows near every Mist Mane leader is an escort of Elite Bodyguards.

These are the real reason why the assassination plan failed. These local fools neglected to mention this in their reports.

So now, you and I have wasted time. I do not apologise, but the task remains undone. Will you eliminate this last obstacle?

• Accept.
• Decline.

This time, you have to eliminate the Brutal Mist Mane Bodyguards and Brutal Mist Mane Protector.

One should be carrying a Bodyguard's Knot Ornament, most likely the Brutal Mist Mane Protector. Bring it back to prove your work.

You can find them in the Mist Mane Village and the Kasaka's Wood Cave. Be sure to bring along those colleagues from before, the ones afraid to speak to me.

• "The task is mine."

In order to assassinate the Mist Mane leaders, their bodyguards must be eliminated first. Defeat the Brutal Mist Mane Bodyguards and the Brutal Mist Mane Protector as Anund has asked, and take the evidence to her.

There is a time for all things, Daeva.

Pending your next words, the time of the Mist Mane is at an end.

Show me the Bodyguard's Knot Ornament, so that the Assassins may ply their trade.

• "My actions speak for me."

Is this truly what you want me to hear?

Without Bodyguard's Knot Ornament in your hands, I can only assume the Brutal Mist Mane Bodyguards and Brutal Mist Mane Protector still live.

It is not just my time being wasted here. Complete your mission, and let your actions tell a different story.

• "I will."

Your words and mine condemn them. That sound you do not hear is my associates speeding to their task.

All thanks to you, Daeva.

More remains to be done, if you are interested in true justice. Return to me when you have time.

Anund said that the guards of the Mist Mane Village were not the true obstacle to eliminating the Mist Mane Mau leaders.

The bodyguards escorting the leaders had to be eliminated for the operation to proceed. You went back to the Mist Mane Village and defeated the Brutal Mist Mane Bodyguards and the Brutal Mist Mane Protector.

When you reported the result of your mission, Anund thanked you, and mentioned more tasks ahead.
