will eventually die, after the Broken Valley got poisoned by Damian, all the quests there, that weren't finished by that time are listed as failed, including Hearttaker: "Because of Damian's invasion, everybody in Broken Valley is dead. That includes Richard". This is, what my closed quest tab reads. I guess they didn't include him in the expansion's streets of Aleroth as magically saved, or anything, did they? So the Hearttaker quest will eventually fail regardless of your actions, kill Richard, or not, the story goes on even without him. Though there's no one to buy the goblin hearts off of you. Wasn't Richard supposed to get higher price for them in Aleroth? I mean when you read his mind, there's something like that, which makes him rise your reward. So supposedly there should be someone to buy the hearts off of Richard, but it doesn't work for the player.
