On a given playthrough, the player can find up to four circumstance clues and four motive clues (more specifically, one motive clue for each potential thief). The clues are randomly selected when quest is started and therefore are not influenced by the order in which the player searches the village. Finding all eight clues fulfills an optional quest objective, though this isn't necessary; the player can make an accusation with as few as one circumstance and one motive clue, if desired.

==Making Accusations==
==Accusing the Thief==
The outcome of this quest is dynamically generated and based only on the player's choices in the quest. There is no correct answer, as whatever is chosen will be the truth. However, who is Hindriach and the future of Bey Lah is altered depending on the four choices that a player makes.

===Thief===
The thief can be 4 different characters: Hindriarch Keh, Kesehind, Eskhind, or a kendren (an outsider).

===Climate===
===Climate===
Climate represents the overall mood of Bey Lah and has three different values depending on the Circumstance and the Motive. If both are either Trade or Craft, the climate is Prosperous. If both are either Illness or Violence, the climate is Tumultuous. Else, the climate is mixed. This directly has an effect on the final outcome: however, the accusation's climate is not always the outcome's climate. The climate also alters how much [[reputation]] is given to the player after completing the quest: +200 reputation for a prosperous climate, and +100 for mixed climate. The player does not gain any reputation for a tumultuous climate.

* Prior to the quest being revamped, there was a chance for the village to collapse under the right accusation. If the village collapsed, the village would be covered in [[putrescence]] and hindren corpses, and the {{favilink|hindren afflicted}} you found would be inflicted with [[Glotrot]]. This is no longer possible, since the only result will choose ravaged instead.
