Detailed Walkthrough

Quest Offer

Questgiver says:

The Mages Guild has come to us for a bit of messy business that's too gross and nasty for them to deal with. A renegade mage needs an accounting fast. Interested?

or

We have the Mages Guild for a client again. Seems that one of their boys has been sniffing too much bat gut, and has gone off on a rampage. Sound interesting, (Brother/Sister)?

Quest Acceptance

Questgiver goes on:

Good. Now, this mage -- the name is (mage's name) -- has absconded with a number of magic thingies but the Mages Guild doesn't mind if you take whatever (he/she) has stolen. They just want (him/her) dead. And you've only got (time limit) days to bring in the accounting. You'll find (him/her) cowering down in a nasty place called (dungeon). Get back here with the world minus one rogue mage in (time limit) days. Mephala steady your arm, (Brother/Sister).

Quest Decline

Questgiver answers:

That's disappointing.

Quest Object

This is a standard dungeon crawl; just find the mage and kill him.

Quest Object Dead

When the mage dies, the following message pops up:

(mage's name)'s light is snuffed out. The Brotherhood and the Mages Guild will be pleased.

Quest End

When you report back to the questgiver after killing the mage, he will say:

So, you put the spark out of that Sparkcaster, (player's first name)? Ah, Mephala is pleased with you, as are her children.
