I made an attempt at restoring the Nimbre situation in Obsidian's expansion Storm of Zehir.
Now you can convince the captain to let the villagers go if you find evidence that there is a traitor living in their village.
Additionally this restores the Inquisitive Pig.
Installation: Extract the folder "nimbre" into your override folder. You can leave the folder structure intact.
You *may* have to start a new game if you've been to Nimbre before. You *must* start a new game if you've been in the loremaster's house before.
Spoilers: Spot 8 will let you notice the loremaster's snake tattoo. He then proceeds to attack you. Two cultists will join the battle (not terribly difficult).
On the loremaster's body you will find a certain scroll which you can show to the captain outside.
The villagers won't be terribly thankful, though...
As far as the pig is concerned, just speak to it.
Well done fixes always deserve a 10 from my pov!! Thank you very much for sharing!! _________________________ Cyphre's Animal Companion Pack

Excellant fix to the programmer's poor decisions to cut this little quest set. They might as well have cut Nimbre from the whole game. Anyways, I found it's "sorta" compatible with version 1.22. The action happens, but I wasn't getting the scroll??? So, I hilt ~, DebugMode 1 (ENTER), RunScript i_g_yuanti_scroll_aq (ENTER), DebugMode 0 (ENTER), ~ and voila! The journal updated and everything works fine from there.

A great fix for a game-breaking bug! Please note that the player doesn't need to start a "new" game if the player's talked to the Loremaster in Nibre. Rather, the player can load up a saved game from prior to talking with the Loremaster. I read that Obsidian is unlikely to patch this bug, which means that this fix is absolutely necessary if you want to play out all the options for the Nimbre encounter.

Ah perfect, I can confirm manually giving myself the scroll did indeed allow me to complete this without restarting my game. Thanks! Daniel.

The item code is "g_yuanti_scroll" without quotes.

Excellent mod! I didn't want to restart the game so used the above file Kaldor added, trouble is the Loremaster doesn't drop the scroll. Could you give the scroll item code so I can add it via debug mode? Cheers, Daniel.
