Prerequisites and Limitations
You will not be offered the quest A Final Act until you have completed Tier 1 of The More the Merrier deed. After that you will only be able to complete it once per Yule Fest.
A Final Act – Something Is Brewing (and it’s not just the Ale)
Although you have participated in the official Yule Festival events, the Mayor not impressed you have mixed with those ‘unsavoury’ folks. The time has come to decide who will you side with? Do you Assist the Rich or Support the Poor this year?
Support the Poor: Self-Sacrifice
Self-Sacrifice: Gareth’s Plan
Under Self-Sacrifice you aim to dash his hopes when you go and speak to Gareth Rust.
Mr Rust himself believes the Mayor uses money from their low wages for himself and not to invest in Winter-Home. He has seen someone coming from a small fort out in Frostbluff collecting money each day and taking it away – so he sends you to investigate if this is true or not!
With the evidence of the Mayor’s mis-deeds in-hand you can now confront him!

Giving the Poor Their Jobs Back
The Mayor tries to bribe you to keep people from finding about his abuse of money. Which kinda proves he did have spare money around! Anyway, instead of being bribed, you can now go and give all those folks their jobs back!
Having done your good deed for the Season, you can go give the good news to Gareth Rust!
Self-Sacrifice Rewards
- Cosmetics: Fingerless Gloves, Shabby Leggings, Shabby Cap, Shabby stocking Hat. Also a choice of Shabby Tunic or Dress.
- Yule Festival Tokens × 5
- Title: The Blameless
Assist the Rich: Gain and Glory
Gain and Glory: The Mayor’s Mishap
The Mayor freely admits that he put money into unwise investments when he first took the position. The reason the Yule Festival exists is to raise money for the town. He says he can’t give workers their jobs back until he gets himself out of debt first.
As the event is not as profitable as he had hoped he has to cut down on the workforce (again). So, as you want Winter-home’s finest garb, he wants you to dig up dirt on his workers so he knows who to fire!
Coaxing the Workers
Under Gain and Glory, it is Gareth Rust who finds the piece of paper showing the Mayor’s unwise investments. While Daley does not want to believe it, he says you should speak with the Mayor. The dialogue for both can be found in the images below/to the right.
So now you need to head out to the Mustering Horn so the Mayor can summon his workers!
