Samuel and Lena

Samuel and Lena is a side quest that begins in the Gibberling Mountains area east of the Nashkel Mines. Lena will ask you to carry her very ill friend Samuel to Gellana Mirrorshade at the Temple of Wisdom in the Friendly Arm Inn area. If you insist on payment (would you be so petty?) she will give you a Jade Ring.

This quest is in direct conflict with the Samuel the Deserter quest given by the Flaming Fist Mercenary in the Gibberling Mountains area. Only one of these two quests can be completed. This one offers far better rewards, but the Friendly Arm Inn is far away, Samuel (who must be carried) weighs 100 lbs, and the quest is on a very short timer.

If you get Samuel to the Temple of Wisdom before he dies, you get 500 exp, a Potion of Heroism, an Elixir of Health and +1 to the party's Reputation.
