PS: T query, this is driving me nuts.

Ok, in the Lower Ward, when you are trying to free Tris, I have talked to Cinder, Corvus, Tris again, and Lenny told me that the papers are stored at the warehouse. But, the darned clerk will only tell me about the money> Is this a bug?

Errr... can't remember. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

LOL Galadria - I thought the idea of these games was to work them out for yourself, otherwise you don't feel the reward of finishing the game yourself.
(Arrghhhh - I'm sounding like the person in Sazs' post)

Hmm, that's weird, I think it's a bug of some kind... Not really much of a help here, but I wasn't able to finish this particular quest in a satisfactory way either. I was able to retrieve the documents without any problems, even freed Tris afterwards, but for some reason, Corvus had some kind of mind blank and that Pikit guy who got Tris in this mess in the first place was never caught in result, he just kept walking around aimlessly. Mind you I'd played that particular part of the game three times, just to make sure I wasn't missing out on any parts of the mystery.
And Staralfur, it's nice and all that you were trying to put out game ethics to Galadria, even though it was a bit misplaced here... She definitely had to go to the Warehouse and pick up those documents.

Anyways, from one of the walkthroughs some quotes as to how the quest should be played:
SPOILER!

...Cinder will also tell you that Corvus is very
interested in solving the crime of Zak's murder (Zak was Trist's husband).
Go back and talk to Lenny. Bluff him into giving you the papers and 1000 exp.
Learn about Pikit's documents at the Warehouse for another 4000 exp. QUEST: Get
evidence that Byron Pikit is a criminal.
You should have noticed the Warehouse, it's just by the auction block where Trist is being held. This area is pretty buggy, because everyone says there's a management problem that you need to solve here, but I've never encountered it.
For version 1.0 of the game, you can just talk to the Vault of the Ninth World and simply claim whatever items you need. Take the papers and claim a large bag of coins, too. It's probably yours from some time ago, since you correctly
guessed the amount of coins, so it's not really stealing.
Now go talk to Trist and free her by showing the documents to Deran. You'll win 4000 exp and Trist's freedom. Talk to Trist again, and she'll come back and reward you with 4000 exp and some copper. Return to the Marketplace to converse
with Corvus. Give him the evidence about Pikit for 2000 exp to get that scum off the streets.

Maybe you missed a part of the mission in particular?

Well, I freed Trist, but I can't get Byron Plikt arrested, either. Agh, well, I got my alignment changed to Neutral Good.
