Rewards

Town of Dion. Return to Mercenary Captain Sophya.
Sophya pays 35 adena for each trophy and adds Lion's Claw: one for 20 trophies at once, two for 50, three for a hundred. Ten claws become a Lion's Eye together with a random supply - potions, shots, scrolls - that grows as you collect more eyes.
Talk to Guildsman Morgan.
Morgan buys the cargo boxes for 100 adena and a Guild Coin; with more coins the price rises.
Talk to Mercenary Redfoot to complete the quest.
Redfoot opens a box for 650 adena; inside is a random cargo - food, pelts, gems or parts of a statue and of an ancient tablet, which Rupio puts together.
