==Walkthrough==
After completing some minor quests for the School of Julianos, the Agent will be asked to conduct a special task by one of the School's Missionaries. The Missionary will reveal that a "prodigal" member has abandoned the School, and has now begun conducting research of their own under the guise of a nightblade. The Agent is duly tasked with ending the nightblade's life, right in the middle of their private "laboratory".
===An Endangering Education===
The nightblade's "laboratory" is, in fact, one of the Iliac Bay's many dungeons, and features many of the generic creatures found in any other. Entering and then searching the dungeon is they only way of finding the nightblade, although it is likely that there will be several similar nightblades within the dungeon.
The Agent will be informed of the target's death when a message appears, at which point the Agent must escape the dungeon and return to the Missionary to complete the quest.
