Re: Not bugs but typos...
When talking to Harlenn the second time in the Agent and the Beast quest, I am given the option of saying: I talked to Guthbered in Prim. They say you are the ones doing the attacks .... This option leads you to the same conversation I had the first time I talked to him. If possible, I believe this option should be deleted when I talk to him the second time.
When I complete the quest No weakness, Herec says: Would you like to trade some potions? It should be: Would you like to trade for some potions? Without the word 'for' it sounds as if he's asking if I have some potions to trade to him.
When I search through Prim's plans In the Agent and the Beast quest, the first paragraph says: You try to sneak as much as possible... For that sentence to make more sense, it should be: You try to be as sneaky as possible. Just a suggestion.

Not sure if this one has been mentioned or not..
Almars, in Remgard...
"He he. They will never KNEW what hit them."
I am assuming knew should be know.

Re: Not bugs but typos...
I almost said BMW instead of BWM.
•Harlenn in BWM says: This calls .... We have to act quick .... The word 'quick' in this case should be changed to 'quickly' because 'Quick' is an adjective; i.e. it describes a noun or an action. 'Quickly' is an adverb which describes the manner in which an action is performed. *got that explanation from google*
•Harlenn in BWM says: Fine.... I don't want to deal with them any more. The way it is used, 'any more' should be changed to 'anymore'. "Anymore" is an adverb meaning "any longer". "Any more" is more often used as "quantity". The difference between the two meanings is illustrated in the sentence: "I don't buy books anymore because I don't need any more books." Despite this, some people recognize "anymore" as an alternative spelling of "any more", but do not recognize a difference in meaning. *thanks google*
•Blackwater chamber guard says: Oh, It is you. The word 'It' should be 'it' (lowercase I)
•Laede in BWM says: You are .... Pick any any bed you wish. One of the words 'any' needs to be removed.
