Knights of Solamnia (partial spoiler?)

Post by Jasper »

After some frustration in the Planar Sphere, I finally made it out. I was checking the walkthrough and it says you can rescue the knights by giving Ribald in the A.Mart 9000gp. When I go there, i dont get that option. Any idea why not?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I think you have to be a mage and get the Planar Sphere as your stronghold to rescue them.

If you're not a mage, you can still talk to the knights and explain the situation. They will walk away and say something about future adventuring encounters. I think that you get some xp for this, but I can't precisely remember.

If you've successfully brought the mage out of the planar sphere and completed its quests, you can rescue the Solamnic Knights in one of two ways. Neither is tied to being a mage.

You can talk to Ribald, and he'll offer the option of sending along a mage to help get them home. (Be sure you speak first with the Knights themselves, and try a variety of conversation options--except telling them you can't help 'em, of course.)

The second option is to speak with the Prelate at the Order of the Radiant Heart. He'll provide the Knights with a home away from home.

Either way, you get good experience, but if you get the Knights back to their own land, they'll give you a Golden Girdle. Very nice, indeed.
To the Righteous belong the fruits of violent victory. The rest of us will have to settle for warm friends, warm lovers, and a wink from a quietly supportive universe.
