=========================
[2.15] The Ancient Tome
=========================
You discovered this old book in a dark cave in the hills near
the Outpost.
From the magical power that resonates from it, you guess that
it must have belonged to a mage.
It is clearly seen better days, but you can still make out most
of the words inscribed on the cover. Unfortunately, you are
unfamiliar with the language in which it is written.
Objectives:
* Locate someone who can identify the ancient tome.
* Fill a vial with Aman'lu's blessed water and bring it to Mage Nari.
* Find a mana-infused stone and bring it to Mage Nari.
* Find a suspended soul and bring it to Mage Nari.
* Capture a lonely voice and bring it to Mage Nari.
* Find a memento of the past and bring it to Mage Nari.
* Speak to Mage Nari.
* Speak to the spirit of Historian Arisu.
After finishing Part 1, Chapter 1 and obtaining Kanred's Staff, you can
explore previously blocked caves south of the Dryad Outpost. In the first one
you come to south of the Outpost (due west of the Blasted Valley (North)
teleporter), you'll find an ancient tome in a side tunnel. Picking it up
kicks off this quest.
Return to the Outpost and find Mage Nari. She bides her time in the northeast
sector, just past the arcanist (near where Amren waits). Talk to her to fill
in the remainder of the quest. You'll find the items as you adventure, but
the final one won't be found until near the end of the game.
* Vial of Aman'lu water: when you first enter Aman'lu, go down to the
riverbank between the Inn and the ruined building where Kylis is working.
You'll find an elf there, Liranth, who will give you a vial of water.
* Mana-infused stone: this is in a ruined mana shrine north of the Outpost.
After crossing the first bridge, you go down into a gully and follow it north.
You'll then go down a couple of ramps. Just past the ramps, look for a cul-
de-sac to your right (southeast). The ruined mana shrine is in there. Click
it to obtain the stone.
* Suspended soul: you fill this requirement with a faerie frozen in amber.
You pick this up (automatically) from a boss-level naldrun while fighting
through the Calennor hills (north of Aman'lu). The naldrun's name is Triari
and she's in a western cul-de-sac just north of the Calennor Wood (South)
teleporter.
* Lonely voice: throughout the wilderness north of Aman'lu you'll find Elven
wind chimes. Click any one to pick it up and use it as the lonely voice.
There are two chimes in the Western Vai'kesh Forest and two in the Calennor
Wood.
* Memento of the past: this is lying on a bookshelf in one of the rooms of
the city of the Cinbri at the end of the game. It's glowing, so you should be
able to see it easily.
