In the embattled city of Treviso, the Antivan Crows stand as a stalwart shield against chaos. Yet, even the most vigilant guardians can be betrayed from within. As the gods clash and the Antaam's occupation tightens its grip, a more insidious threat festers in the shadows. Venatori blood mage cultists, those who traffic with forbidden power, have found willing collaborators among the city's own protectors. This treachery threatens to unravel the last threads of order in Treviso. It falls to a resolute adventurer to pierce this veil of deceit, aid the fractured Crows, and expose the spies who have sold their city for a taste of corrupting magic.
🕵️♂️ Initiating the Investigation: Finding the First Clue
The hunt for the traitors begins at the heart of Crow operations. To start the 'Spies Among Us' quest, one must first travel to the Cantori Diamond in Treviso. Here, amidst the organized chaos of the Crows' headquarters, the first evidence awaits.
Look for the circular red couch marked by a distinct quest indicator. On a nearby round table, you'll find a suspicious scroll. Interacting with this document and absorbing its contents officially sets the investigation in motion, revealing the grim reality of the Venatori's infiltration.
🧭 Following the Trail: Confrontation at the Rooftops
With the quest active, the next lead points to the city's higher vantage points. From the Cantori Diamond, head outside and take the zipline across to the Crow's Road Rooftops beacon. This area offers a panoramic but perilous view of Treviso's strife.
Proceed through an open doorway, where the atmosphere shifts from urban tension to overt hostility. This location is guarded by a small contingent of Venatori operatives. Notably, this is also the site of a level 25 Blight Cyst, a key objective for the separate 'Gate of Deep Sorrow' questline. Engage and eliminate the three Venatori cultists to secure the area.
Once the area is safe, scour the vicinity where the Venatori were initially stationed. Look for a pile of wooden debris; perched atop it will be a readable note. This intelligence document is the first tangible proof linking specific individuals to the conspiracy.
💬 Consulting the Contact: Reporting to Chance
Armed with the incriminating note, return to the Cantori Diamond. Your point of contact within the Crows is a man named Chance, who can be found standing to the left of the central catwalk. Present the discovered evidence to him. This conversation is crucial, as Chance provides context and reveals the next phase of the operation: the spies are using dead drops—hidden locations for passing messages—within the treacherous Drowned District.
🌊 Navigating the Drowned District: The Three Dead Drops
The investigation's core moves to the waterlogged and perilous Drowned District. Fast travel to the beacon at the district's entrance. Three separate hidden notes are concealed in close proximity to this arrival point, each requiring a keen eye to locate.
| Drop # | Location Description | Note Position |
|---|---|---|
| First | In a room to the east of the beacon. | On a round table in the room's corner. |
| Second | In a building near the docks. Go up stairs, west, then through a southwestern door. | On a rug on the balcony, surrounded by pillows. |
| Third | Same building as the second drop. | Climb a ladder (blocked by wood at the hall's end). Note is on a table to your left. |
Methodically search all three locations. The notes are often tucked away in seemingly innocuous spots—on furniture, among personal effects, or in secluded alcoves. Retrieving all three provides a complete picture of the spies' communications and plans.
🏆 Wrapping Up the Quest & Claiming Your Reward
After securing all three dead drop messages, make your final return to Chance at the Cantori Diamond. Delivering this full intelligence dossier concludes the 'Spies Among Us' operation. The Antivan Crows can now act on the information, rooting out the corruption within their ranks.
Your efforts in safeguarding Treviso do not go unrewarded. For completing this vital counter-espionage mission, you will receive:
-
A substantial chunk of Experience Points (EXP) to aid your progression.
-
200 Gold to fund your further adventures.
-
Five Fade-Touched Crystals, rare and potent alchemical components essential for high-tier crafting.
-
A significant boost of 100 Reputation with the Antivan Crows, strengthening your alliance with one of Thedas's most influential organizations.
This quest is more than a simple fetch mission; it's a narrative thread woven into the fabric of Treviso's survival. By excising the Venatori's influence, you help stabilize a city on the brink and ensure the Antivan Crows can continue their guardianship without the poison of betrayal. The rewards are valuable, but the true prize is a slightly safer, more secure Treviso in the face of overwhelming darkness.
