Determining Outcome
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 chooses.
There are keywords that will be used throughout:
- Circumstance:The supporting evidence, as explained by Angohind
- Motive: The evidence that indicts a thief. (or implicating evidence, according to Angohind)
- Thief: The thief accused.
- Climate:The overall mood of Bey Lah.
