It says option 2 (leave the village and run far away) results in nothing happening. Does that mean if you take option 2, he'll just stay in cassardis, not allowing completion of the quest? Because right below that, it also says whatever you decide, the quest will be completed. I'm a little fuzzy on that because it's been days now, and I keep returning to cassardis to find pike still there. The quest marker, however, highlights the gate exiting cassardis. Then just outside of cassardis, the quest marker moves back to aernst castle. Then if I go back to talk to maul, nothing changes. He doesn't give the option to report pike's status. How do I complete the quest having told pike to run awa? WTF??!!??
