Primary

The primary objective is to eliminate Ironfists envoy, and steal their garb. After this you will be disguised as Ironfists envoy, and you will be able to follow Captain Besuz to the meeting with Kahyet. When you meet Kahyet she and Captain Besuz will become hostile. You must kill Kahyet in order to complete the mission. Watch out here, Kahyet is level 18 and Captain Besuz is level 15. Try to round up Kahyet's minions together with Captain Besuz and kill them with AOE attacks. Then have a Warrior tank Kahyet as she hits hard. Degen is very effective to help finish her.

Bonus

The bonus is simple, but takes time. You must kill all the Rinkhal Monitors. They are around the X's on the map. There are Kournan Guards that will prevent taking the fastest paths to the Monitors; follow the cyan paths in the map. The western group can be reached by two different ways.

*Note: You do need to complete the mission to get the bonus reward. Simply killing all of the Rinkhal Monitors will not give you the bonus until the mission is complete.
