is there any way to set my citizen score back up so i can complete this quest? i'm almost certain that this is not something ill get a second chance at
There are several ways to solve this,
1. Buy fake IDs from happy merchant, that will reset your morality.
But before that you have to get into Noer via Goblin cave that leads into starting sewers, where there is no guards around.
2. Raise your barter skill, and trick the guards to think you're not a criminal.
3. Or raise your moral stats by donating to the refugees or beggars. I'm not sure how that work, maybe it's an event only thing? 🤔
Rescuing captured ladies in goblin caves also increases your moral stats.
I never tried sneaking through the guards into the fort, maybe try that? Like during battle, just sneak into the South side of the map? Probably won't work.
Regarding your questions,
1. Why you are wanted in all over Noer after you purged those Saints bastards?
Because Noer is like Taliban Afghanistan, priests or religious workers are considered political VIPs. They can do whatever they want, but you can't do whatever to them no matter what. You shouldn't care about the corrupted law and culture in Noer, and you should just kill them on sight.
Being good in a lawful way is impossible in Noer. Noer's moral standards is just corrupted to the core.
2. Why you are wanted even if you leave no survivors behind?
Ears and eyes everywhere in Noer, ears and eyes.
Except when you are killing those slave traders and robbers.
the problem is that i got a quest to rescue a noble lady, and despite being right outside her castle, her guards wont let me in since they say im a criminal, there really needs to be some way for her to notice this fact since the quest is functionally completed but i cant actually get her to get her ass in the castle
