    Title: Highvale Outskirts: Captain Burnes' Head Quest Slipped Through the Cracks
    Reproduction Rate: 1 for 1
    Blocker? No
    Details: Hello. Problem child reporting in. I made it through the Highvale Outskirts quests without doing Capt. Burnes' elf head quest. I never even noticed it. I went from the wheat and such turn-in to the Esmeralda portion of the arc. He is still tagged as a quest giver in the compass, but does not give me that quest. He does not do the blue sparkly wave, either. Please note that I made the decision that he step down when I came to the end of that scene's quest arc, so he is no longer commander.
    Steps to Reproduce: See details.

    As a secondary question, is completing all of the quests in that scene a prerequisite for receiving the /formalcourage emote from Horatio?

    Did you complete Lieutenant Simone's quest "Bedrolls and Wheat Sacks"? This isn't turned in to Esmeralda, it's turned in and completed by Lieutenant Simone. Once that is done, you can go back to Burnes and use keyword "help" to get the elf head quest.

    Yes, I completed Simone's quest.

    "Help" to Burnes now results in:

    Code:
    [10/27/2017 2:18:57 PM] Ian Berie: help
    [10/27/2017 2:18:57 PM] Captain Burnes: Thine aid with the refugees is most appreciated, Ian Berie.

    I played through the arc with my second account. I made sure to visit Burnes after finishing the wheat and bedroll task. I thus received the head quest. I've gone through the entire arc and completed it. Burnes does not show as a quest giver this time.

    Now I'm stuck with Daddy's Girl quest, which I started after completing the main arc. If Burnes has info concerning Michael, he's not talking now.

    I got the note and it says to go see the girl but when I go See her. Then when i tell her about the letter she doesnt respond at all. No answer every time i ask about it.
