The Quest Rewards: 3 Quest Points, 2000 coins, 1406 crafting experience.
Free up some inventory space, then head to Sinclair mansion north of Camelot. Speak to a guard to discover that there is a murder mystery involving the death of Lord Sinclair. Offer to help discover who killed him. This quest plays out a bit like a game of clue. First, you'll need to go to the eastern crime scene room and pick up the murder weapon, pot and search the window for a thread. Now head to each of the rooms of the suspects and search their barrel for their unique silver item. When you've collected two from the ground floor, head upstairs to find the other four.
With all the evidence collected, head to the attached shed on the western side of the building. Grab seven pieces of fly paper from the sack. It's worth saving time later if you don't get a fingerprint match on the first try. Return to the kitchen in the house. There is a barrel of flower there, where you can use your pot. Dip the murder weapon into the pot first, then use flypaper on it to capture the murderer's fingerprint. Now go through the silver items and eliminate them one by one. Dip the item, use flypaper, then use the flypaper of the item on the criminal's print. When you find a match, you're done with figuring out the murderer, you just need more evidence.
Head to the pub on the west side of Camelot, past the bank. Interrogate the poison seller there, and discover that all the sinclairs purchased poison. Show him the pot you found at the crime scene and he'll tell you that it smells like his special poison. Return to the mansion and interrogate the person who you think is the culprit. Ask them why they bought poison, and they'll tell you they used it on something at the mansion. Invesitage that object. For example, I was told by Anna that she used the poison to kill flies at the compost heap. I checked the heap and the poison hadn't been used. Once you've determined this, talk to the guard and tell him you know who did it and receive your reward.
