Act Three[edit | edit source]
The corpse of Franc Peartree without a hand, can be found on the floor of Peartree House near main entrance at X: 32 Y: -96. The only thing that can be looted from it is a threatening letter.
Franc Peartree is a victim of the serial killer 
, who murders people in order to become an Unholy Assassin of 
, the God of Murder. Peartree's name can be found on a 
Bloodstained Parchment among other planned victims, marked Killed.
If spoken to with the 
spell, Peartree's corpse does not tell anything important, except from that he had been feeding the barracks' inhabitants and was impelled to retire after injury. Everything else concerning him and the possible causes of his murder may be discovered while visiting the basement of his house.
Letters which can be found in the basement hint that 
contacted Peartree after his retiring and blackmailed him into his covert armsdealing, presumably due to Franc's multiple contacts among Flaming Fists of different ranks.
The threatening letter found on Peartree's body claims that the man was killed for helping the lordling. As it goes, this scornful moniker is used by 
when speaking of Gortash.

Notes[edit | edit source]
- A copy of threatening letter addressed to Franc Peartree can be found in the mailbox of the Rainforest's Home (house of another murder victim), - obviously a mistake.
