The test of Master Abrax
You must click on Abrax (M4.25) the alchemist two times before he'll want to talk with you. After a looong conversation, he'll order you to find two novices and will order you to find two novices and give a list of plants he needs. You will find Sirius and Krayban at spots #1) and #2.
Sirius #1 is sitting by a campfire at Severin's farm (M1.9). He'll give you some plants and direct you to the woods. At spot #2 you will find Krayban's body and some gnomes. Before you return to Abrax, you'll have to collect 6 healing plants and 4 mana plants.
The quest (M4.25) will end with giving the alchemist the plants, but you can additionally get 2 small healing potion for information on each of the novices.
The test of Master Illumar
Begin Illumar's (M4.21) test with reading the two books by the entrance. Return to your teacher and inform him about the progress. The next step will be finding the quill. You can buy it from Enzo (M4.17) for 250 coins or ask Caspar (M4.13) about it and receive it for free. Quite the tough choice... As for the spell ingredients, you should talk with Abrax (M4.25) (and read the old book next to him) and Rufus (M4.24), who will cooperate only after you complete Rufus is seeking wisdom in combat. Exiting the library, you should read the old book to the left of the entrance.
Afterwards speak with Erlan (M4.20). You will learn about his fight with Enzo (M4.17). Head to the kitchen and talk with Harlok (M4.14). You will have to pay him 200 coins for a turkey. Share your knowledge with Enzo and go to Erlan to give him the food and get to know about the needed ingredients. Just a word with Jervis (M4.19) and you can return to Illumar (M4.21). The quest will end after you finish learning about creating scrolls and make one of you own. You can buy blank scrolls from Caspar (M4.13) for 50 coins.
Mutual aid
Jervis (M4.19) needs a Create illusion scroll and two blank scrolls [buyable from Caspar (M4.13) for 50 coins each]. In return for our help, Jervis will teach us skills typical for a hunter.
Assist the Warriors of the Order in Harbour Town
This quest is given to you by Pallas (M4.3) if you choose the warrior path and have undertaken the other tests. You need to go to Harbor city (the entrance gate is marked on the map) and complete Medicine for everyone and Talk to the commandant of Harbour Town. Afterwards do a favour for the mages four times in appropriate quests. Then complete Where are the artifacts disappearing to? And you can return to the Monastery. What's intriguing is that if you complete the tasks in favour of the bandits, nothing will really happen. Pallas will cancel the test but Ignatius (M4.22) will recognize it as passed, which won't disrupt the Initiation.
A worthy weapon
Karlsen (M4.9) will give you a fighting staff. With the new weapon, return to Ignatius (M4.22).
The initiation
If you have finished all the Master tests and the A worthy weapon quest, you can begin the ritual during which you'll have to answer some questions. As a result of each answer, your stats will increase (adequate information about the choices are visible on the screen). Once the ritual is over, your crystals knowledge will increase by 1 point. Follow the Inquisitor to the volcano entrance. You will begin another chapter and receive your first teleportation stone (Volcano Keep).
