Aldernon the Sage | Back to Neverwinter Neverwinter Nights 2 Guide

Depending on which side you're on, you'll be escorted by a city guard or your acquaintance Katrina. You can't walk freely around the district, you'll be shown directly under Aldernon's door. Talk to the elder through it and convince him to let you in. Once you're inside, have a long talk with him, and you'll find out a few interesting thing about the shards. You now have to access Neverwinter Archives. When you leave Aldernon's house, tell your escort to lead you there.
