Chaos in Altinova

I have way too many things to deal with at the moment. The barbarians in Altinova, the situation at the Abandoned Iron Mine, the delegation from Valencia... The list goes on! Given the fall of the monarchy, we must apply what little resources we have at our disposal to the defense of Altinova. Where are the knights when we really need them? Is it not their sworn duty to protect the last descendant of the Royal House Bareeds...? Have you met the Shroud Knights? Go to Sarma Anin, the commander of the knights, and request aid from them.

We must carefully weigh our options during chaotic times such as these. Sausan interference with maritime trade is indeed a problem, but... there are more important matters that require our immediate attention. Return to Sarma Anin and tell her what I've told you.

So, how did Neruda Shen respond? Tell me what you discussed with him.
