Kith and Kin is the final quest in the optional {{favilink|Bey Lah}} questline. It is started automatically once {{favilink|Hindriarch Keh}} is spoken to after {{favilink|Eskhind}}'s return and [[Find Eskhind]] is complete.


Once you obtain the quest, Angohind will helpfully offer his expertise on how to find clues and solve a mystery. Warden Neelahind can offer information about the various suspects. Clues can be items on the ground, geographical features, information from the populace, or the looker descriptions of key NPCs.<br><br>
Once you obtain the quest, {{favilink|Angohind}} will helpfully offer his expertise on how to find clues and solve a mystery. {{favilink|Warden Neelahind}} can offer information about the various suspects. Clues can be found by either asking the populace or by looking at the description of items on the ground, geographical features, or key NPCs. When the player is ready to make an accusation, they must present their evidence to Neelahind. If an accusation can be [[#Invalid Accusations|proven false]] by Neelahind's knowledge of the suspect, that suspect is ruled out from further accusations.


If an accusation can be proven false by Neelahind's knowledge of the suspect, they are ruled out from further accusations.
The outcome of the player's investigation can significantly alter the fate of Bey Lah, for better or worse.
==Determining Outcome==
 
{{main|{{BASEPAGENAME}}/Determining Outcome}}
== Gathering Evidence ==
==Journal==
Gathering evidence involves searching the village for two types of clues:
{{Quest step|title=Brief Warden Neelahind|xp=250|subtask=Tell Bey Lah's Warden about the disputed nature of [[Kindrish]]'s theft.}}
* '''Circumstance''': clues that reveal the circumstances of the crime (or "the supporting evidence" as described by Angohind)
{{Quest step|title=Optional: Discover all the evidence|xp=250|subtask=Discover all evidence that might lead to the thief.}}
* '''Motive''': clues that suggest a particular suspect's motive (or "the implicating evidence" as described by Angohind)
{{Quest step|title=Accuse the thief|xp=1000|subtask=Speak to Warden Neelahind with evidence of the event and accuse the thief that took Kindrish.}}
 
The player can find up to eight clues: four circumstance clues, and one motive clue for each of the four suspects. Finding all the clues fulfills the optional quest objective. However, making an accusation only requires one circumstance and one motive clue. The clues are randomly chosen when the quest is started, and therefore the set of clues available cannot be influenced by the order in which the player searches the village{{Code Reference|namespace=XRL.World|class=HindrenMysteryGamestate|method=init}}.
 
Additionally, every clue has an influence: Craft, Trade, Illness, or Violence. The influence of the clues used when the player accuses the thief is an important factor in determining the quest's [[{{BASEPAGENAME}}/Determining Outcome|outcome]] and [[#Rewards|rewards]].


==Rewards==
===Circumstance Clues===
The rewards for Kith and Kin depend on who the thief is and their motive. The circumstance adds a bonus to that reward.

==Accusing the Thief==
The thief can be one of four suspects: Hindriarch Keh, Eskhind, Kesehind, or a kendren (an outsider). There is no predetermined correct answer; a successful accusation by the player will be treated as the truth.
However, each suspect cannot be accused by certain clues{{XML Reference|conversation|KithAndKinExclusion}}. Making a poor accusation prevents the player from accusing that suspect again.
===Invalid Accusations===
{| class="wikitable"
!Possible Thief
!Cannot be accused with
|-
! Keh
| heard infighting, heard loud splashing, scratched copper nugget, severed tongue, leather scraps
|-
! Eskhind

|-

| splintered weapon haft, talking late at night, yuckwheat chaff, smell of yuckwheat tea, sound of crafting at night
|-
! Kendren

==Rewards==
* '''Reputation''': Bey Lah's [[{{BASEPAGENAME}}/Determining Outcome#Climate|climate]] determines how much [[hindren of Bey Lah]] reputation is awarded to the player: +200 for Prosperous, +100 for Mixed, or 0 for Tumultuous.
* '''Items''': The item rewards for Kith and Kin depend on the thief's identity and their motive. The circumstance adds a bonus to that reward{{Code Reference|namespace=XRL.World.Conversations.Parts|class=KithAndKinFinale|method=Reward}}.

==Tips==
{{Opinion}}
* If you are missing clues even after searching the entire village and speaking with everyone, make sure that you have looked at all the clues, and did not pick any up without looking at them.
