"fight poison with poison" aye? I see the locals witnesses have also corroborated most those events, but is a bit sketchy on what exactly you did...
Well, I'd say no matter how gory... some of us receptionists appreciated ALLL the details...
Regardless, whatever, I think... I like to imagine you had "eliminate all hostile forces". At this point in time the guild will have to accept that you did.
Since... we are unable to prove otherwise.
Here is your reward.

'Oh, this one was memorable, all right. Those f***ers tried to ambush us. One particularly flooded tunnel? Water snakes waiting just under the water's surface to bite at whoever was wading through. The other snakes even hid around in the darkness to match their timing.
They were so quiet up until then that I had the dwarves toss a kobold head in the water just because the lack of movement was real unsettling. Then, the minute the head touched the surface...oh boy.
Yeah, there's a reason why I don't enjoy horror movies that much. They disagree with me on the fundamental value, so I tend to fall asleep whenever one is being played. Sadly, this wasn't a movie and I couldn't sleep either.
Now, the thing about basilisks that make them insufferable is poison. The quest says many varieties so I might end up running into one that doesn't fit that description, but most of those corrode whatever they touch. And how does one identify a basilisk from it's fellow snakes? The name says it all.
Basilisk. Little Crown. A rather dashing name for something not really that dashing. There tends to be a row of spikes around their collar that resembles a crown, hence the name.
Which is why...yeah. For safety purposes, you'd usually want to take them out from a distance, but 1) there's basically no distance in a tunnel, and 2) it's flooded, so we can't use firebombs that effectively.
Instead I took a few pages out of a certain Lupo's book, and...well, there's a reason my arms are tingling like mad while I'm writing this report.
It's a tad too gory, so I'll have to censor whatever I did in the report. For appraisal's sake, let's just say that I made use of 'fight poison with poison' and took it extremely literally. It doesn't bother as much as firing an Origium Round does, but it's still annoying because my body isn't structured to use it perfectly, or in Basic, I lack the right parts to be using it as it's intended.
Still have to give it to her though, that ability of hers is uber-nasty...anyone fighting her on a one-on-one would definitely be crying of unfairness. But then again, my colleagues are all freaks so that doesn't count...dear lord.
I was planning to take the tin-mining quest afterwards, but with my arms in this state, I might have to think of other ways to go about it. After all, that quest's requirements is only collection, right?'
