Dialogue
 * "With the true nature of the White Mantle revealed, it is time to restore the Royal Family of Kryta to power. Unfortunately, the Royal family was largely destroyed during the Charr invasion, and those who survived fled across the sea. The royals, however, were known for theirâ€¦errâ€¦indiscretions, and it is likely that there are a few with royal blood in their veins who still live in Kryta. I had arranged for papers from the royal scribe to be brought to me that I might examine them and find a legitimate successor to the throne, but the caravan I sent for was plundered by the Tengu in Stingray Strand and the chest containing the papers was carried off."

Walkthrough
Although this quest is acquired in The Fisherman's Haven, it is actually closer (and easier) to depart from Sanctum Cay and follow the coastline north-ish until reaching a narrow ravine. There is a decent sized group of Skale that wander this path, but they are not too difficult to overcome. The ravine allows access to an open plains area, where there are numerous roaming groups of Tengu. The group you are interested in will be clearly indicated on the map. Wipe them out, open the chest, grab the royal papers, and return them to Watchman Arad.

Note: This is an example of a "single item" quest, meaning only 1 instance of the quest item will drop, and be assigned to whichever party member's turn it is. Thus, it will take several trips for all of the party members to accomplish this quest. Furthermore, as henchmen claim their fair share of the party loot, there is a chance the quest item will be assigned to one of them, and never even appear. For this reason, it is not advisable to use henchmen on this quest.
