All you need to do now is talk to Salina. She will thank you and promise to say a good word for you to Nandor M1(15).
Q3 The Missing Magician
Two novices will approach you on the bridge M1(11). They will ask whether you've seen their master, Rakoriuma M1.1(2).
1. Find Mage Rakorium
You will find Rakorium in one of the caves of the Old Mineshaft. | Convince him to come with you and he will join your party until you leave the caves. |
IT seems almost impossible for those two to find their mentor, so you're their only hope. You will find the magician in the Old Mineshafti M1(18).
2. Lead Rakorium out of the Caves
Archmage Rakorium will try to teleport you out of the caves, but apparently he doesn't remember the spell formula, so you will have to get out the traditional way. For the length of the "journey" Rakorium will join you. After you leave the caves he will remember the spell and will teleport away.
3. Meet Rakorium in Avestreu
You will meet him on the bridge with his novices. There, he will give you the letter for Nandor M1(15).
