[Trial Of The Beast]The Crooked Kin - Small Spoilers

[Blackbot]

Hey guys,
be warned, small spoilers ahead. If you are a player and your group has already reached Lepidstadt, you've passed the discussed point in the adventure.

Spoiler:

I really don't get the Crooked Kin. "Thanks for confirming our friend is dead! Here, have this dagger! If we sold it we could live an average life style for almost three years, but nah, you should totally have it."
(10 GP/month says the GMG - if they sell the dagger for half its worth that's (4000/12)/10 GP, that's enough for 33 Months!)

I think I will switch that around somewhat. They will give them a couple of magic potions - most of them are just superstitius stuff (though they themselves belive in it), but among them will be the Fox's Cunning potion they would find by defeating the phase spider - and the dagger will be where the potion was.
Or if the spider manages to send them running it will be carried by an orc trying to rob the party that doesn't even realize what kind of treasure he carries with him. (No, the orc will not be alone. He will be part of a small group).

Thoughts?

A perfectly good exchange. The dagger is pretty useful in book 3, so you'll want the players to get it one way or another.
