FormID: 01009917 HCTithes 10 0 Steward Ignatius has told me that if we are to afford hiring guardsmen and a staff for Hoarfrost Castle, we need to re-establish the tithes system that has, until recently, funded the castle. Inwold Mannick, a farmer living just south-east of the keep, is the representative for those under the protection of the castle. I am to see if he (or those he represents) needs any help, and ask him if they will resume paying tithes.
FormID: 01009917 HCTithes 20 0 Inwold Mannick was distraught with grief when I met him. His wife 'Annie' had been carried off to the nearby 'Glowing Tunnels' (and presumably killed) by mystical beasts of some kind. It was difficult to get details from him - such as when this happened - but I suppose losing his wife that way could leave any man... unbalanced. Inwold said that if I collapsed a tunnel in the caves (to keep the beasts in) using a trap he made years ago, he would persuade everyone to start paying tithes to Hoarfrost Castle again.
FormID: 01009917 HCTithes 30 0 I have arrived at The Glowing Tunnels. Now I just need to find this trap Inwold Mannick spoke of, and set it off.
FormID: 01009917 HCTithes 40 0 I think I've found Mannick's trap; this pull-rope must set it off. But... I can see a note near it; written in blood. It might be important.
FormID: 01009917 HCTithes 50 0 The note I found near Inwold's trap seems to indicate that his wife Annelie was still alive when the creatures dragged her through there. Perhaps I should explore deeper into these caves to see if I can discover what happened to her - before sealing off this tunnel with Inwold's trap.

FormID: 01009917 HCTithes 57 0 The minotaur keeping Annelie Mannick captive is now dead. I should return to her cell.
FormID: 01009917 HCTithes 60 0 I have found Annelie Mannick alive in The Glowing Tunnels! A minotaur was keeping her caged there for some unknown reason. Inwold will be overjoyed to have his wife back, after giving up hope of seeing her alive again. Firstly though, I need to get her out of these caves. I can collapse the tunnel - and stop any more beasts coming through here - on our way out.
FormID: 01009917 HCTithes 70 0 I have collapsed the tunnel using Inwold Mannick's trap. Now to escort Annelie back to her husband, at their farm.
FormID: 01009917 HCTithes 72 0 Whatever measures Inwold put in place all those years ago to keep the obviously weakened tunnel from caving in have given way. The tunnel collapsed behind me, mere moments after I passed through. Now to escort Annelie back to her husband, at their farm.
FormID: 01009917 HCTithes 80 0 I have returned Annelie safely to Inwold, at Mannick Farm. I should speak to Inwold, and see if he's now willing to persuade everyone to start paying tithes to Hoarfrost Castle again.
FormID: 01009917 HCTithes 90 0 Inwold was overjoyed to see his wife back safe and sound. He has promised that everyone will start paying tithes again, after what I did to stop the monsters coming through the Glowing Tunnels, and for rescuing Annelie Mannick. I should go tell Steward Ignatius the news.
FormID: 01009917 HCTithes 100 0 Ignatius was pleased to hear that the settlements under Hoarfrost Castle's protection will begin paying tithes again, and told me that from now on, a portion of each week's tithes will be placed in a money box near the bed in my master bedroom. The first payment is due tomorrow. In the meantime, Ignatius has asked me to come speak with him again when I'm ready to discuss hiring guards for the castle.
