Involvement

Act Three

Rockbothem is patrolling the streets of Lower City with  Fist Virry and a  Steel Watcher. They can be found at the Grey Harbour Docks at X: -171 Y: -102, bullying traders  Rox Flunter and  Cinna Brewcellar and trying to confiscate the wines the latters brought to the city, accusing them of smuggling goods. Both Fists seem to feel their impunity, being accompanied by an automaton.

After the Steel Watch Foundry is destroyed, Rockbothem remains at the same place, now complaining that without a Steel Watcher to back them up the bullied traders will not treat them nice.  Saer Deelia,  Flaerian and  Yeller Dawg nearby try to reason with the guards, but to no avail.

  This is a legitimate shipment of ale bound for the Blushing Mermaid here.

  It's contraband, and I'm confiscating it.

  You can't just confiscate my cargo of ale. Where's your authorisation?
