There is a little more to this quest I think... but it's optional. You can trade the rod back to the boy and he does something. I forget, been a very long time. Ganiman

It was misleading and seemed like you have to do this quest before being able to open up paladin --Tattersail 11:55, 11 November 2006 (EST)
Except that you can't do Sharpening the Sword without doing A Squire's Test, and consequently, the others. --Chrisjander 12:02, 11 November 2006 (EST)
But wait, I make your case for you, as they go to Sharpening the Sword, they will see it has other prerequisites that are not connected to Father and Son, point taken. --Chrisjander 12:03, 11 November 2006 (EST)
