Lady Grey's Invitational Side Quest

Location: Bowerstone North

After completing the Arena challenge, visit Lady Grey in Bowerstone North. To court her, you must:

  1. Talk to the lady in the northwest part of town to learn about a suitable gift.
  2. Buy a Black Rose from the store in Bowerstone North (the only place that sells them).
  3. Buy a vacant house. If you already own houses, sell one and buy it back.
  4. Perform a heroic deed: retrieve Lady Grey's necklace. Follow the green dots on your auto-map to gather information. The necklace is in Oakvale, on the west beach between two boats. Use the Spade from your inventory to dig at the correct spot.

Return the necklace to Lady Grey. She will then challenge you to a duel with Thunder at Headsman's Hill. Travel to Headsman's Hill via the Gibbet Woods. Fight Thunder by getting behind him using rolls or the Assassin Rush spell, as blocking is difficult. After dealing enough damage, the fight continues down a hill. Continue attacking his back until he flees into a cave. Enter the cave and defeat him. You will earn Thunder's Helmet trophy and a Mana Augmentation from a Silver Chest.

Silver Key #19

Location: Headsman's Hill

Method: Fish out of pond

After falling down the hill during the battle with Thunder, you will see a cave entrance and a small pond. Fish the key out of this pond after Thunder seeks refuge in the cave.

Silver Key Chest #6

Requirement: 15 Silver Keys

Defeating Thunder will cause the nearby Demon Door to open, leading back to the Gibbet Woods. If Lady Grey agrees to marry you, you will receive a dowry of 15000 Gold and can enter Bowerstone Manor. In Lady Grey's bedroom, you will find Silver Key #20 and a 15-key Silver Key Chest (#7) containing the Katana Hiryu.
