(SPOILER) Question about pestilence quest

[morph113]

So I "finished" the quest by giving everyone the remedy in the village and waiting an approriate amount of time. When I talked to that one guy in the town, he said that everyone started to get better after I gave them the remedy but later they got the fever again and everyone died. The village is a ghost town now.

Now my question, is it possible that I gave them the wrong remedy? Like when you have to read the book to come up with a remedy, i picked "black death" as the cause for the infestation, because I had no idea what to pick. Without telling me what the correct solution would be, did I pick the wrong solution? Basically does that monk always agrees with my decision no matter what I pick but we won't see if it was correct until we see the effect later? So can the town be saved or are they supposed to all die? Did I mess this up? Again, if yes then please don't spoiler the correct solution so when I do a second playthrough I can try again.

You gave the wrong remedy my friend.

The town is dead if you give the wrong one. Unless you reload to a save before you gave the remedy. It is not a plague it is poison via the water.

I told you not to spoiler the correct solution :( Well thanks anyway.

I'm gonna go with Yes - *SPOILER* Since I learned how to read (shade thrown :O ) I went with Poisoning and they all go better. The monk seems skeptical no matter what you pick I guess. I mean it also makes sense that the bandits would poison the water supply after failing to kill the village. Idk if you can fix the problem, but my guess is it's permanent.

Everyone is dead, I don't think I can fix this :)

You pretty much have to read what the book says about the illnesses.. The black death has boils turning black. Also I think it does not affect animals if I remember it correctly.

I got in a bit of a different issue with this mission. First thing I did after making the cure was knock out the guard by the barn. Then I lockpicked the door and cured the prisoner. Then I proceeded to cure the rest of the town. After a long time of waiting to hear from the town I proceeded to talk to whatshisface... the mayor,lol. He thanked me for curing the town but I got no option of asking to be allowed to question the prisoner. So I tried knocking the guard out again... Then the prisoner come running out the now unlocked door to fistfight me. Apparently he noticed my "bad behaviour". Then the "mayor" came to help aswell. I died.

I tried again to knock out the guard and this time I was alone to fight the prisoner and knocked him out. Pulled him into the barn to wait for him to wake up for questioning. He woke up and ran away.

Once more I give it a go. This time I just sneak in, the guard notices but I dont care. I question the prisoner, done. Then I get a neverending loading.. In the background I hear threats if I dont get out I will be in trouble. Final warning. Then a fight. All inside of the loading that never ends..

I now have to try again.

For a game that encourages the player to go about missions in different ways it sure doesnt work very well in that regard.
