Dragon Age II Hints
No Rest for the Wicked
1 of 11: Do the "Isabela's Regret" mini-quest, then go to the Hawke Estate and talk to Isabela next to the writing desk to get this quest.
2 of 11: With Isabela in your party, travel to Hightown at night and enter the Blooming Rose brothel.
3 of 11: Go to the upstairs area and approach the middle door to get a conversation with Isabela, then open the door to start a conversation with one of Castillon's men.
4 of 11: After he gives you 3 gold coins and leaves with Isabela, use the "gather your party" gimmick to replace her, then leave the brothel and look for a little sparkly thing labeled "Isabela's Trail."
5 of 11: Examine it, then look to the north for another little sparkly. Walk up to it to get another one to appear farther to the north.
6 of 11: The sparklies will lead you to the market area's map exit, which you should use to travel to Lowtown (since that's where the quest arrow is).
7 of 11: Follow Lowtown's sparklies east to the eastern map exit, then travel to the Docks region and follow the sparklies to a door that leads to Castillon's Landing.
8 of 11: After entering the landing, go through the open doorway to start a combat with Velasco and his men.
9 of 11: Open the southern door with Velasco's key and loot the chest in the room past it to get some incriminating documents, then exit the room to meet up with Castillon.
10 of 11: If you want to get friendship points with Isabela, go along with her plan to let Castillon go in exchange for his ship. For rivalry points, insist on killing Castillon.
11 of 11: The quest will be over after a final conversation with Isabela. Before you leave, go through the entry room's north door to find an area with some trap-guarded treasure.
