Quest objectives of Tough Love
1. Find out about the weeping woman from the Executioner.
There's a woman crying on Gallows Hill. Maybe the Executioner can tell me something about her.
1.1. Talk to Executioner Hermann.
2. Talk to Elishka.
Elishka is unhappy at the Executioner's. Talk to her and find out if she has any kin who could help her.
Elishka is a young woman whose convict husband was executed by Hermann the Executioner. He saved her from being chased out of town by the self-righteous citizens and gave her a roof over her head. But her problems were only beginning - staying with the Executioner would make her as much of a pariah as he was.
3. (Optional) Find out more from the Bailiff.
If Elishka had some kin who were willing to take her in, it would solve her situation. Only Elishka has no kin of her own, although her dead husband might have had some family. I'll have to try and find out from the Bailiff if they exist, and where they might be.

Get embrocation for him or tell him that Bailiff sent you.
