He's just making his standard comment for entering Arnika. In the game story, the Higardi have abandoned the city, so there's supposedly lots to loot. He won't tell you any specifics outside of the "myles quests" which don't amount ot much anyway.The RPC bug is: if you release an RPC in a Zone that has any unrecruited RPC's (or booted ones) any number of them can disappear. (so release on a road, etc.)
