The Shadowy Figure

Haunted by the massacre of his family, the hermit Sven Yorgen tasks you with discovering the identity of a mysterious stranger seen lurking near his farm on that fateful night. Armed only with an enigmatic book recovered from the ruins, you must consult the residents of Darkshire to trace the stranger's footsteps.

I must know who was that skulker in the shadows I saw the night my family was killed!

Please, friend, you have shown your resourcefulness. Please find that shadowy figure. I must learn what secrets he holds!

I do not have clues that you do not already know, but here - take the book you found at my farm. Perhaps some of the townsfolk can link this book with its owner.

If you have something that belongs to the shadowy figure for whom you seek, then let me see it. I may be able to divine something of its owner.

Hmm... Someone handled this book recently, someone who is driven by revenge. But the impressions left on it, at least the impressions from the original owner, are faint.

I can tell, however, that the original owner of this book is not a native of Darkshire.
