   1. Objective 1: Ask folks around Akaga about the night in question.

   2. Objective 2: Find out where the broken bit of steel came from.

      Hidden objective

      Journal: I found a sharp bit of steel in the lantern room of the beacon. I can't know for sure until I look further into it, but I have a feeling this is directly tied to who damaged the beacon.

      Success: It appears the piece of steel came off the weapon of a local Bladebrand named 'Ishi.'

   3. Objective 3: Find evidence that ties Rak and Ishi to the crime

      Hidden objective

   4. Objective 4: Retrieve Rosanjin's katana

      Hidden objective

      Journal: A Bladebrand named Rosanjin says if I can track down his stolen katana, he'll give me crucial information on who damaged their weapon in the beacon's lantern room.

   5. Objective 5: Return to Rosanjin with his father's katana

      Hidden objective

      Journal: I found the katana that bandits stole form Rosanjin. I should make my way back to him and let him know.

      Hidden objective

   7. Objective 7: Turn in the Bladebrands Ishi and Rak

   10. Objective 10: Search for more evidence

       Hidden objective
