Walkthrough

Spoiler Warning About a Story plot's Main quest

This quest cannot be completed until you visit Arl Howe's estate to rescue Queen Anora. Once there, he is located in Arl of Denerim's Estate - Dungeon. You get the key to his cage from the Jailer. This can be done before or after facing Arl Howe.

Check one of the rooms located in the eastern section of the dungeon (Denerim Arl of Denerim Estate - Dungeon Map, L3), marked as the lower prison level. Start off by eliminating a prison guard (mini-boss) and once he's gone check his body for a prison key.

You can now proceed to the next room where you'll find a couple of cells. Locate the cell where Rexel is being held (Denerim Arl of Denerim Estate - Dungeon Map, L4). Naturally you shouldn't kill him during the initial conversation. Instead find out more about who he is. You can't do much to help him, however your journal is going to be updated. You can also meet the other prisoner while you're there (Denerim Arl of Denerim Estate - Dungeon Map, L5), but it's optional. In order to end this quest you must return to Denerim Market district. Go to the board and talk to Rosamunda to tell her about Rexel's fate.

Should you decide to put Rexel out of his misery, the quest will end there. You will not have the option of reporting back to the Chanters Board and will thus receive no reward. In this case the completed quest note will state, "You killed Rexel in Arl Howe's dungeon. His family and Chanter Rosamund are unlikely to discover his fate."

Rewards

If Rexel is not killed, you may turn it in at any chanter near a Chanter's Board for a 2 gold reward and 175 experience.
