Shattered Kingdoms

I started the rock quest in Kytar, killing the 3 types repeatedly and other NPCs along the way. Upon my return, the questmob said he knew I'd fail and asked if....

I think there's a bug somewhere in it somehow.

Edit: I went back and killed all 3 in order and didn't kill anything afterward. That allowed me to complete the quest. There is still an issue with the questbits.

I did that quest not so long ago and far as I can tell it still works fine. That bit about knowing you'd fail is something he autosays when you walk in the room, I believe. It seems kind of silly that he does that, but there is a trigger phrase to make him acknowledge the results of your quest. It's not a secret since he tells you to say it to him, but I really don't remember what it is.

The trigger word made him say he knew I'd fail. I did make it work, though.

Kill all 3 you're told to kill and kill lots of them lots of times in no particular order and kill lots of slaves and lots of globs and you can make the quest not work for you. Kill all 3 in order and kill nothing else and the quest will work.
