Samuel the Deserter

Samuel the Deserter is a side quest from a Flaming Fist Mercenary who's encountered on the west side of the Gibberling Mountains area, which is located to the east of the Nashkel Mines. He asks you to watch for the Flaming Fist deserter Samuel, and to turn him in if you find him. The Flaming Fist Mercenary will stay there after initial dialogue and only says, "So we meet again. I'm sorry, but I don't have any time for talk." when spoken to again.
  
The party will find Samuel laying on the ground near his friend Lena and you'll have to accept to undertake the Samuel and Lena side quest in order to place him in your pack. He is heavy ( 100 pounds & 115 pounds), and will need to be carried back to the Flaming Fist Mercenary. You will receive 50 as reward and no other penalties or rewards will be accessible.
This is in direct conflict with the more involved (but much more rewarding) Samuel and Lena quest obtained from Samuel's friend Lena. The only way to complete both quests is to first complete the Samuel and Lena quest, kill Gellana Mirrroshade, loot Samuel's body from her corpse, and then deliver it to the Flaming Fist Mercenary.
