The Blackwold brigands seized Old Bauman's farm during the early days of their uprising.
'Have you heard that Archet gave them Blackwold villains what-for? Kicked 'em right out, they did, and good on 'em! If little old Archet can manage it, I say Combe can do one better, and sweep them Blackwolds out o' the Chetwood for good!
'Now I lost my Sally's chain when them brigands took over my farm. She's been gone for many a year, but that chain always did bring me comfort. One o' them Blackwolds probably picked it up, and I want it back! Farm's far to the east -- just follow the road past all them brigand campfires.
'Eh, what's that? No, it's a chain, not a necklace. What a queer question.'
Old Bauman's farm lies far to the east of Combe, beyond the brigand camps in the Chetwood, at the end of the eastward path. Old Bauman is at the logging camp, south of the Chetwood, east of Combe.
Old Bauman lost his farm to the Blackwolds when they retreated from Archet, and he would like you to go there and retrieve his Sally's chain for him.
