Some of the guards who aren't restraining your attacker chase after Hope. When they return, they inform Gryan that Hope has fled into the Deadmines. With the rest of the local militia, you invade the Deadmines at the position you've seen. The forces you encounter are more numerous than you saw before, but your allies have greater power and appear to have the element of surprise. By nightfall, the locals have been routed and the Defias seemingly thwarted. With your help, an old evil has been defeated, one that you didn't even know of coming in. And as for what you did come here for, a certain Detective Horatio Laine uses the knowledge from your raid to finally finds the culprits to a particular mystery concerning a pair of Furlbrows and closes the case after seeing those culprits brought to justice.
Nice.
