Involvement

Farlin is on the Western Beach west of the South Span Checkpoint in Wyrm's Crossing during Act Three at X: -212 Y: Y:87. She and a group of Guild members are arguing with the  Stone Lord's crew lead by  Caïros near a docked ship from Moonrise Towers, accessible by taking the western path between the South Span Checkpoint and Open Hand Temple.

Upon approaching the two groups, Farlin asks for help fighting the Stone Lord's men, promising that the Guild will pay. The party can choose either of two sides, or confront both. If they agree to help Farlin, the Guilders join them in the fight against the Stone Lord's men. If the party declines to assist, appeals to Caïros, or prevents either side from fighting, both groups turn hostile. The party can also wait nearby for the fight to begin, join in, or wait for it to end.

Depending on the party's choice, some of the following inspirations may be granted:

• ⁠Backing the Established Players ( Noble background) - for supporting the Guild
• ⁠Cleaning up the Scum ( Haunted One background) - for killing both groups
• ⁠Easy Pickings ( Criminal background) - for killing both groups
• ⁠Stacking the Deck ( Criminal background) - for supporting the Guild

If the party sides with Farlin, she puts in a good word for them with  Tusgront who guards the entrance to the Guild. He then lets the party inside the Guildhall without requiring a dialogue check.

After the combat, if Farlin's side wins, Farlin claims everything in the area for the Guild. If a party member asserts that the loot is theirs, she becomes hostile and attacks. However, if she is knocked out instead of killed, and a long rest occurs, she still puts in a good word with Tusgront.

Speak with Dead

If Farlin is killed, her corpse can be communed with using  Speak with Dead. She explains she was sent from the Guild to seize the Stone Lord's haul for  Nine-Fingers Keene, though she did not know what it was besides being a valuable item.
