[Spoilers] Is it worth receiving quests from House Doemenel?

[R E Q U I E M]

I've got this robbing order on a letter and stole Heart of the White March, however as I entered Reymont Manor everyone were quite pompous which I found irritating, ended up toying with the man and not handing the jewel over - finally got into fight, killed everyone residing at the ground floor. I enjoyed my defiance although not sure about what I've lost by declining them this early. Should I complete some of their quests before choosing my side with a faction, or is it okay to become their enemy right away (experience points and quest rewards are not that pleasing)?

[Du-Vu]

You might have missed a couple of minor quests from the Doemenels' victims, but if you weren't planning on working with them the rewards for looting the house ought to make up for it. I'd stick with it. There's still enough XP in the game to hit the level cap and you'll probably get some different reactions from other NPCs based on wiping them out that could be interesting.

Let's get this straight. You've broken into Reymont Manor to steal the gem, then you wanted to return the stolen gem to Lord Reymont within the same house? Why?

If you want to work with Lord Reymont, a shady noble man, don't steal the gem, but inform him about the letter and turn against the Doemenels instead.

Or did you mean to say that you fought the Doemenels? They are a worthwhile ally, particularly for a cruel/aggressive/deceptive watcher. Bricanta Doemenel is related to some extra quests and offers a shop with some good items, too.

Oops, my bad. I meant Doemenel Manor. I decided that I won't be changing my action, they are not my cup of tea. I love thievery, but I am not letting them control me like a pawn. A pawn is at least what I'd feel in their faction.

Yeah, especially as a "nobody" (despite being a Watcher), early on you need to role-play a subordinate if you want to work with them.
