I have decided to get the ransom for
the noblewoman the kidnappers...um...
kidnapped. I get the reward and...
it's a pair of stupid pantaloons?
I can't even sell them! What use do you
have of them?

Probably an easter egg of sorts. There was a pair of golden pantaloons in the first Baldur's Gate.
You couldn't do anything with those either, except give them back to the nobleman who wanted them ironed for some XP. ;)

Gah! Then I missed 16500 Xp!
But on the other hand...I still got -2 rep.
and Viconia became very happy to see I
got the guts to do such a thing.
Thanks for your help anyway.
