For being THAT stupid of a crime, you should go kill him.

The spearmaster that is. Not the giant.

It will probably end up going into a town slaughter, but that's good.

Beware. Not of the E, or of the U, or even of the &, @, and b. Beware the #.<BR>(Translation:) Beware. Not of the elephants, or of the unicorns, or even the demons, carp, and badgers. Beware the husks, for they are relentless, corrupting, and unstoppable. Only the might of hell itself can even keep it in check; and only for a small period of time. If one sees such a being; run away, unless you like the idea of joining their ranks.

Oh the horror.   ::) ;D

Now if it was the hoary marmots asking you to kill him I might understand...

What's a hoary marmot look like? is it like a monkey, or a woodchuck? I have no idea.

Sort of like a woodchuck, but smaller. It's just another kind of ground squirrel. Brown, fuzzy, four legs, lives in a burrow, and get's eaten by everything.

Yeah, it's pretty much a woodchuck. Hoary marmots also have a silvery fur pattern on their face, which is why they're called hoary. Theres also yellow-bellied marmots, among other kinds of marmots.

An atrocity!  The marmots of the world cry out for vengeance.

Obviously such a dispute must be carried out in court. We now recognize the case of the Marmots VS the Giants. All rise before the honourble (Yet Idiotic) Judge Dilol Sporrokamca. "Wheres mah spearz? I'll finish this case up quick and right! I'll poke that giants eyez out I will!"

Yes my friends, this merciless fiend must be stopped! His awe-inspiring hoary marmot meat heist was merely the beginning of a terrible crime spree. If fail to act immediately, he may move up to pig tail sock theft, jaywalking, and failure to meet mandate deadlines. Truly we face a fearsome criminal mastermind, strong in both mouth and stance.

You should track down the giant and cut off his right hand.

I had to kill a giant with no title who had stolen a dog leather bracelet.  I expected that the giant had more loot, and the bracelet was just the only thing he took from this one town, but no.  I scoured that cave from top to bottom and found nothing to take but that one bracelet.  Lazy-ass giant.
