The Keen-Eyed Lapidary

A Keen-Eyes Lapidary has been robbed! Some villain has emptied her shop of moon-pearls.
Unlocks: Watchful 30

Your reputation precedes you

Her horologist clients are furious:moon-pearls are vital to their work. Could you use your investigative talents to find the culprit? Or at least retrieve her stock?

Watchful challenge

Rewards spoiler

The pearls!

The thieves are long gone, but you track down the moon-pearls to a dingy pawnbroker's shop in Spite. The foul-mouthed owner isn't keen on returning them, but capitulates when you mention the Constables. The Keen-Eyed Lapidary is greatly relieved by their return: but the pearls are all spoken for, and she has no funds to reward you. She promises to return the favour in future.
