In an MP game yesterday, I (player 1 - Ardent Mage) parleyed with a Ceratan village. I received the quest 'Too many chiefs' which asked me to come back to them to give them 100 dust. Since I was saving for another hero I opted to ignore that quest and continue exploring. Parleying that village completed my main quest objective to parley with 2 minor factions.



The next turn, my friend (player 2 - Ardent Mage) came across the same village. Since she was also looking to complete her main quest, she parleyed with the same village. When she did, I received quest completion for the first part of 'Too many chiefs' and 100 dust was deducted from my coffers without any interaction from me. She also did not receive credit for the parley. Essentially her hero's parley acted like it was my parley.



I'd attach a savegame here, but I don't have a copy of a save prior to this incident.



Hope this helps. Both of us were playing customized Ardent mage factions in case that has anything to do with the mixup.
