Possible endings
Depending on your choices the quest ends differently – with different rewards. A playthrough only reaches one of the endings.
Ending 1 (spoiler)
I found Radu in the abandoned wing of the almshouse – and killed him. He was working for Xanthe and the vrakhir thanked him for his service by turning Radu into some monstrosity. I delivered the grim news to the deacon – he was quite shaken, but still gave me access to the cathedral library.

Failed (spoiler)

Ending 6 (spoiler)
I never found out what happened to the missing caretaker - after I killed all the residents of the almshouse, there was no one to tell me what was happening in that place.
