Point 1
Rings and Chains is an another quest you can do only in the [8th chapter], before you head to the Castlewood. Talk with your sister on the courtyard to understand her worries. Ask Elyana about everything connected with canceled wedding and supposed betrayal. She also tells that in dungeons you can find Lord Roxton, member of a House with which Elyana has problems.
Point 2
After dialogue with sister find a representative of Roxtons. You'll hear about Elyana's debt and searching for Lord Roxton.
Point 3
To know the truth, interrogate Criston, man who is supposed to be Elyana's lover. After going on the streets talk with guard to join him temporarily to the team.
Go to the market square where, under the Criston's house, Roxton's men are waiting. Accost one of bodyguards and ask Criston to go out to you. Bodyguards attack him at once - don't let him die, or the quest will fail.
Now you have to lead Criston to the castle, to explain all this chaos. Go through the main gate, because docks seem to be more dangerous.
Point 4
After exiting market square you'll be attacked again by the blue robes. Focus on enemies attacking the young lad, to distract them.
Point 5
Another group will attack you at the top of the bridge. Move back, downstairs, because Criston has a dangerous tendency to run into the center of enemies.
Point 6
Just behind the gates you'll be attacked once again. Repeat your tactic and don't let them kill your companion.
Point 7
With Criston talk to Elyana. She will confess that the innocent boy was only her tool to cancel betrothal with Roxton. You'll ask to bring Roxton, to clear the situation.
Roxton demands compensation. You can pay off Elyana's debt, sacrifice Criston or fight for your honor (insulted during the conversation by Roxton). If you choose the last option, old Roxton nominates young Edwyn as his representative in the fight.
You can fight personally or let Criston fight. Young will die easily, so it's better to fight alone. After your victory, Roxtons will get out of there and Elyana's debt will be canceled.
