Here's the crate of fish.

Step 1

Quest Text So, this here is Sogyeong's estate.
Actually, I s'pose "palace" would be a more fittin' term.

Step 2

Objective Here's the crate of fish.

Summary Oh my stars, yer workin' so hard, Inspector!
I knew ya could do it. See? Not a drop of sweat!

Step 3

Hey now! Don't be givin' me that look now!
Alright, alright, I'll quit my teasin'. Let's get a move on!

Step 4

Objective Is anyone there?

Summary Who're you?
Haven't seen you before.
Howdy! I'm Dolswe,
and this here is the Traveler I serve.

Step 5

Sure, and what brings you to my gate?
I'm busy, so speak quickly.

Step 6

Objective We're here to meet Master Sogyeong.

Summary Is he expecting you?
I can't just let anyone in to see him unannounced.
Please, ya gotta hear us out!
Somethin' big's goin' down in town right now!
Hold on. That dialect...
...You from...

Hanji?
Eh? Feelin' like it's deja vu all over again here.
Yeah, I'm from Hanji County, alright.

Step 7

It warms my heart to meet a fellow from my neck of the woods!
Come on in! Now, what brings ya 'round these parts?

Step 8

Objective The police are taking the fishers.

Summary What? Why the fishermen? That's some big news, for sure.
Now, hold your horses just a minute.
Master'll be out soon... Ah, there he is!
Master! We got ourselves a bit of a pickle in town!

Step 9

Master Sogyeong! Name's Dolswe from

Hanji,
and this here is the Traveler I serve.

Step 10

Yes sir, Master.
Right this way, if ya please.

Step 11

Well, I'll be... Ain't this the most unbelievable tale?
Still can't wrap my head 'round it. Can you?

Step 12

Objective You think it's okay to lie to him?

Summary Well, do ya reckon we oughta spill the beans?
Tell him the truth and watch him crumble like week old yakgwa?
They say knowledge is power, but sometimes ignorance is bliss, y'know?
Some things are better left in the dark.
It wasn't a complete fib neither. They did leave together,
happy as a clam in high water, to some far-off place.

Step 13

And after all the old man did, he can spend the rest of his days
filled with lonely remorse.

Step 14

Objective Wonder what Seodong was doing with the swellfish.

Summary I'm guessin' he wanted the poison. He was a centipede after all.
But why would a healer need swellfish poison?
Ya know the poison they use to execute criminals?
It's brewed up by the royal physician who serves the king.
They say a third of all medicine's just poison in disguise.
The only difference is how much and how ya use it.

Step 15

So a healer would know how to handle poison, sure as shootin'.
But why would a healer need

swellfish poison, specifically?

Step 16

Objective At least one thing is clear.

Summary Yeah. the Centipede Market took some swellfish poison
from Bukpo and tried to use a Jigwi to cover it up!
Now, we ain't got no direct proof of these here shenanigans,
but we know they had their eyes on it.
I got me a strong gut feelin' this is tied up
with the poisonin' of His Majesty.

Step 17

But where could they have used it?

Swellfish poison kills quicker than you can say swellfish.

Step 18

Objective Could Seodong have poisoned the late king?

Summary Nah, I reckon not. His Majesty passed away
hours after his last meal.
They probably had a whole mess of folks to get rid of before they got to
His Majesty. My guess is the poison was used on them other folks instead.
Anyways, we can bet there's some Centipedes crawlin' around the royal court.
And who knows what kinda mischief they're up to!

Step 19

Now, shall we mosey on back to Yuunru?
At least we know the two lovebirds are happy together.
