Quest[edit]
Location[edit]
Walkthrough[edit]
Head back to the Mage's Guild. Once inside, find Valaste. She marked, making her much easier to find. Once you have, approach and talk with her. She will explain that the mages would use a special ink that could only be revealed when exposed to Arcane Fire. She will point out the one brazier in the Mages Guilds that has an arcane flame.
Dialogue[edit]
Introduction[edit]
Were you successful? Do you have the tomes?
Yes, I have them right here. And something strange happened.[edit]
Well done! You're already proving your worth to the Guild.
Sorry, did you say strange? What happened?
An old man in robes appeared to me. He said his name was Shalidor?[edit]
Shalidor! Labyrinthian's father, the Spellmirror's forger. Are you speaking truly?
And um ... this book's pages are blank. Why is it glowing?
Shalidor appeared right after I picked up that book. He said fire would show you the words.[edit]
The spellwrights of the First Era used a special ink that would remain invisible until immersed in arcane fire. perhaps that'swhat he meant?
We have a brazier nearby burning with such a fire. Let's see what the flames reveal.
I'll give it a try.[edit]
Cast the book into the arcane fire. Fear not. The pages will not burn.
Can you tell me more of Shalidor?[edit]
Shalidor was the most famous arch-mage of the First Era. His dedication to spellcraft and his commitment to research were unmatched by any before or since.
Most mages revere him, though he does have his critics.
Why would he be criticized?[edit]
Shalidor left that one should earn the right to be called "mage." He created many trials to test the spellcasting mettle of men and mer.
His loudest detractors were those who failed these tests.
Goodbye.[edit]
