A wraith rising from the campfire smoke

Speak to the Quester, who says:

"I am (Quester's name). One of the local nobles, (noble's name), has just gotten the deed to an abandoned piece of property. Too late, (he/she) found out it is haunted. Someone needs to go out and banish the ghost that haunts it. Are you willing to take up this quest?"

Accept

The Quester goes on:

"(Noble's name) wants to begin rebuilding within (time limit) days. (He/She) has the deed to (dungeon), where you'll find the spirit."

Decline

The Quester answers:

"Ghosts are normally the temple's problem. Maybe I'll turn this one over to them."

Exorcise the Spectre

Head to the haunted dungeon. Once inside, find and kill the spectre that is terrorizing the noble's property. The target may be either a ghost or a wraith; the chances for each are 50%. There may be more than one spirit within the dungeon, but when you kill the target a message appears:

The ghost has been laid to rest. (Noble's name) can now rebuild (dungeon).

Report back to the Order after the task is done.

Reward

Upon your return, the Quester says:

(Noble's name) will be quite pleased. (He/She) has even offered to dedicate a fountain in your name."
