Q2.57. Worth its Weight in Gold
Phase 1. Letter
Yaevinn asks you to deliver a letter to Vivaldi (M8.8) in Temple Quarter.
Phase 2. Reply
Tell Vivaldi that you have a message from Yaevinn. Regardless of what you answer to his question, you have to leave his house and reenter.
Phase 3. Messenger
Vivaldi gives you a note for Yaevinn.
Phase 4. Elven Encampment
When you ask the Druids (M10.32) about where to find Yaevinn, you'll know that he's moved to the Squirrel encampment (M10.35).
Phase 5. Quest Completed
Bring the letter to Yaevinn in nonhuman camp (M10.35).
Q2.59. Force Recon
This quest in its two forms is initiated in phase 3 of Q2.57. Worth its Weight in Gold. On the one side of the forest (M10.35) Squirrels are readying for battle, led by Yaevinn. At the other side there is the Order (M10.23) led by Siegfried. You can choose which side to support.
If you decide to help Yaevinn...
Phase 1. The Guide
Yaevinn asks you lead his men to the golem cemetery (M10.25).
Phase 2. Reconnaissance
At the spot there will be 7 Order scouts - kill them all. You'll find some weaponry and 350 orens by their bodies.
Phase 3. Success
Go back to Yaevinn (M10.35) and deliver the good news to get 200 orens and know that Berengar is still alive.
If you decide to lead the Order, be sure to complete Q2.57. Worth its Weight in Gold - or you'll loose the opportunity to do it.
Phase 1. The Guide
Siegfried asks you to lead his men to the golem cemetery (M10.25).
Phase 2. Reconnaissance
At the spot you'll see 6 Scoia'tael - kill them all and loot their bodies for some weapons.
Phase 3. Success
Go back to Siegfried (M10.23) and tell him the good news. You'll get 200 orens and he'll tell you that Berengar is still alive.
Q2.122. Finders Keepers
Phase 1. Family Heirloom
Every morning you'll meet a Con Artist near the entrance to the sewers (M8.1). If you talk to him, you'll be able to accept this quest.
Phase 2. Key
The Con Artist will give you a key to a gate in the sewers (M7.21). You'll access the crypt from there - be prepared to fight off Graveirs and Ghouls.
Phase 3. Success
Search the crypt to find a chest - take its contents.
Phase 4. Loot
Give back the family heirloom to the Con Artist (if you met him in the morning and did the quest quickly, he might still be there; if not, wait until sunrise). It seems he kind of pulled your leg on this one, but the important thing is you completed the quest.
Q2.123. A Long Way from Home
Phase 1. Monsters
When you complete Q2.56 Flowers and Gold, you can take another quest from Yaren (M10.22) - kill some monsters and deal with the vodyanoi.

Phase 5. Fishpeople
When you talk to her, you can choose to kill the vodyanoi...
Phase 6. Vodyanoi killed
.. if you choose that, go to Vodyanoi Altar (M10.7) around midnight and kill the warrior who's lurking there.
Phase 7. Reward
At the end go back to Yaren (M10.22) and tell him about your deeds. If in Q2.56. Flowers and Gold you didn't cheat on Yaren, you'll get 400 orens. (quest is over)
Phase 8. Yaren's Axe
If you decide to make peace with the vodyanoi, Vaska tells you to place Yaren's weapon on their altar.
Phase 9. Offering
Go to Yaren (M10.22) and convince him to give you his axe.
Phase 10. Quest completed
Place the axe on the altar (M10.7) and wait until midnight. A Vodyanoi Warrior appears and swaps the axe for Vodyanoi Amulet.
Phase 11. Reward
Give the amulet to Yaren (M10.22) as a sign of peace (you can also kill the warrior after you get it). The reward is the same as if you were to kill the fishman.
