The Eight Virtue Quests

The Order of the Crux Ansata has grown ever more dismayed at the lack of knowledge and popular support for the eight virtues. It has therefore been decided that a campaign to reeducate the citizenry is necessary to ensure that the virtues continue to hold their rightful place in Britannia. To help the Order achieve this goal, we're adding eight virtue-related quests with Publish 38. It the hope of the Order that through participation in these quests, the citizens of Britannia will come away with a better understanding of their importance to Britannian society.
