The next target is a Wood Elf named Ungolim. He can be found in Bravil by the statue of the Lucky Old Lady between 6pm and 1am.
Walkthrough
Travel to Bravil and wait for the hour Ungolim will appear by the statue. He knows the Hero will appear and will attack them on sight. There is no need to worry about the guards, as they will not interfere and the Hero will not get a bounty on their head. Ungolim uses a rather powerful bow, but he can be easily killed if the player plans the attack.
Disarming attacks work very well against him, as do disintegrating attacks/spells on his bow. Standing next to a guard as he aims and then dodging to the side so he hits the guard instead will make all the city guards attack him, and the Hero can simply wait until he is dead.
Once Ungolim is killed, Lucien Lachance will show up and start yelling at the Hero. He will claim that they are a traitor, but he will soon realize they are both being set up. Apparently, every dead drop since the mission Next of Kin has been false and has had the Hero systematically killing off members of the Black Hand.
The Black Hand now believe that Lucien is the traitor and are relentlessly hunting him down. He asks them to watch their next dead drop, believing that they may be able to intercept the false delivery.

I must go to the city of Bravil, and lie in wait near the ancient statue known as the Lucky Old Lady. A Wood Elf named Ungolim visits the statue every night between around 6:00 PM and 1:00 AM to make a wish, as is the local custom. When I see Ungolim, I must kill him. I should be warned, however, that Ungolim has been alerted to danger, and if he senses an assassin will probably attack on sight. He has also bribed the guards to look the other way if there is a fight. Perhaps a stealth approach would be best... |

Ungolim is dead. I must now journey to the city of Anvil, and pick up my reward and next contract at the dead drop there. It is located in the barrel just behind the pond, in the city of Anvil. |

I was intercepted by Lucien Lachance shortly after Ungolim was killed.

Trivia
- If the Hero kills Ungolim in an area inaccessible to an NPC (a rooftop for instance), a journal entry will appear that says Lucien is coming to talk to the Hero, however since he cannot reach them, even if they get off the roof, the quest will remain unfinished.
- All fake dead drop orders actually have a different appearance in the inventory. When read, the "handwriting" looks different from the real dead drop orders, with more of a flourish compared to Lucien's print style. As well as these cosmetic differences, they all explain who want the targets dead and why, something that the real dead drops never do.
Bugs
This section contains bugs related to A Kiss Before Dying. Before adding a bug to this list, consider the following:
|
- If the Hero is on the roof and immediately kills Ungolim and then comes off the roof, Lucien might find the Hero. If he doesn't, wait a few days in the same place. It is unknown if this bug always occurs or if it's conditional.
