Walkthrough
When you read the
3rd Sealed Note, you'll learn that you found the
Crux of Ages while scavenging a battlefield, and that to protect yourself from Gramuk and the other goblins searching for it, you had your memory erased. You'll also learn that it was your former self who left these notes for you to find, which hopefully will allow you to use the
Crux of Ages to thwart the goblins' plans. Finally, you'll discover that your brother had been helping you with the Crux, but that just before you erased your memory, he was captured by the goblins at
Vela. You'll now need to go and rescue him.
Vela is located to the west of the Tangletree Forest, past
Baron's Thicket. You'll have to battle lots of goblins in
Vela, including a bunch of Goblin Bombthugs, who will detonate themselves when they get next to you -- if you let that sad event take place. So before heading to
Vela, if you don't have any sort of ranged attack, then it's a good idea to get one. Bombthugs only have 15 hit points, so even a weak attack will do.
You'll find your brother on the western side of
Vela, in a torture chamber (#2) guarded by a creature called a Taurax (#1). You'll earn 1000 xp when you get to your brother, and he'll tell you that Gramuk is controlling the Chancellor's mind and that the goblins are planning on taking over all of Thaermore. However, he'll add that the goblins fear a wizard named Erubor who lives in
Shadowmirk Tower, and he'll recommend that you go there and meet with him. Finally, your brother will reveal that he's dying and in great pain, and he'll ask you to end his life. You can do this or not, and nothing in the game will change.
