Description
"Clerk Valannor, I do not wish to hear speculation and hearsay in this matter." "If you wish to bolster the case, you must seek out a suitable eye-witness. Obviously the noodle-maker is unreliable. Thus, I wish you to speak with the entertainer known as Jasmine. She claims to have seen Tam murder Gai-ken." "She is nearby, plying her trade."

Quest Offering "Clerk (name), I do not wish to hear speculation and hearsay in this matter." "If you wish to bolster the case, you must seek out a suitable eye-witness. Obviously the noodle maker is unreliable. Thus, I wish you to speak with the entertainer known as Jasmine. She claims to have seen Tam murder Gai-ken." "She is nearby, plying her trade." Entertainer Jasmine You ask, "What did you see the night Tam Silverbowl murdered Clerk Gai-ken?" Jasmine looks at you through her eyelashes. You get a disturbing sense that she can sense your thoughts. Jasmine asks, "What would the Magistrate like to hear me say?" You say, "I am intereested only in the truth, Jasmine." Jasmine giggles, with a bell-like quality. "No, (name), you are ambitious and want only to complete your tasks and move on." Jasmine continues, "I know that you do not care if an innocent man goes to the sword in place of the guilty one." You protest, "No, I am truly seeking justice. Now please, tell me what you saw!" Jasmine shrugs and says, "I was entertaining a young and amibtious Juritor, by the name of Kyosh. We had just finished our tea when a Voice came to him and spoke in his ear." You motion for Jasmine to continue. "Of course, I would not listen to a private conversation betwen a Voice and Juritor Kyosh, so I moved aside to prepare more tea." Jasmine continues, "As the Voice left, Kyosh took a knife from the table and put it in his robes." Jasmine says, "Then he bid me follow him to the home of Clerk Gai-ken. There he met the half-elf Tam Silverbowl." You ask, "What happened next?" Jasmine quietly says, "Tam and Kyosh entered the house. There was a struggle. I saw Tam and Kyosh exit. Tam looked frightened. Kyosh merely handed him the knife he had taken from my table." You say, "This is... exceptional. What next?" "Tam bowed to Kyosh, and Kyosh took a small silver bowl from his robes and gave it to him." "We then went back to Kyosh's home, where I offered to draw up a bath for him. He refused, which is unusal for him." Jasmine concludes, "He sent me away then, so I saw nothing further." Quest Completion Knowing better than to continue to protest the innocence of Tam Silverbowl, you merely report what Jasmine has told you, leaving out names. "This is good, (name). Jasmine's testimony will help us close this case." (continue) "Now that Jasmine has confirmed that Tam was the murderer, the final step in building a case is honesty." "You shall go to the Juritor assigned to the case, a promising and talented man named Kyosh." "Tell him what you have learned - the facts, and not your speculations." "He will build the case against Tam and present it to the Magistracy."

Notes
Jasmine is upstairs in the Autumn House, in the Northeast corner room. If you use /targetauto her name is just "Jasmine", not "Entertainer Jasmine" as the quest NPC says.
