Thanks Saiko, but do you know where to find Arian? I looked all over Shettera and could not locate him. Also, I'm not sure if you need to have the officer's patent for this to work. He mentions something about having stones and I think it may be just part of the quest script. My guess is that it's a bug but could be wrong.

The stones are the Stones of the Gods, you need at least one I believe, but then I think most people would have two or three or even more when coming to Sheterra. The first one is given by Frederick at the very beginning.

Maybe there are other items which can fulfill the role of Officer's Patent, can't be sure. He needs something official, to write a contract on it.

Arian is located in a cage-like structure named House of Arian, which is next to the bridge on main Sheterra island.

Saiko,
Thanks, I completely missed the cage. It could have done with a quest objective circle around it at least

.

Secondly, I've just confirmed your first observations - that an Officer's Patent is required for the turn in to Arian. He then "defiles" it and what you're left with is one that can be used with all the trophies you currently have, as always, but without the ability to earn more.

My opinion that last is a bug Katauri should fix since they are advertising this as another quest, and it does in a way break what you're intended to do afterward - save up more trophies for Demon upgrades.

It should either be that you are limited to demon upgrades only after signing it but can still earn trophies, or just provide the added bonus of demons when completing the quest as a reward, perhaps as Arian the only one who can upgrade them (if you really feel the need to be restrictive - people likely aren't going to use it if you are).

I'll update the OP now.

I think I know what's the last quest - actually, it just lengthens an existing quest. On Debir when you get the contract for Demenion's spy, now you cannot battle him just by talking to him - he refuses your claims and you need to find proof. Go back to the fisherman for whom you did the Devilfish quest, and he will let you know he found the missing tax papers, as well as seen a suspicious fellow try to dump them in the sea. Confront the spy with this evidence, and he will attack you now.

BB Shockwave; The special skill for paladin is the holy armor, which sometimes reduce the damage a unit takes by 50%.

Thanks for telling me about the defiled patent XD. It's now useless since I have 0 trophies.

Thanks - that skill sounds awesome!

I actually had to restart my Hard game with the Paladin - simply, I could not kite away the troops guarding the maps to Verona, and I could not beat any of those - or the remaining heroes and troops on the first 4 islands - without no loss. Darn "Lots of" Ancient and Polar Bears. I am now trying out the Fauns/Royal Thorns combo.
