| Act II : Side Quest Six: Arinth the Mad
Location: Find the Elven Prison in the Lost Valley of the Azunites and free Arinth from his cage.
The Elven Prison is behind a number of secret doors in the Lost Elven Ruins, which is directly to the east of the teleporter in the Lost Valley of the Azunites. It initially doesn't seem to lead anywhere, but there are a number of secret buttons inside; if you press all of them, you'll come to the Elven Prison, where Arinth has been holed up for millenia. If you equip Arinth's Staff and use it on the central pillar of the prison, you can free him, and he'll immediately run off.
If you track him down in the Temple of Istaura and Isteru, near the Elen'lu Isles teleporter, he'll politely ask for his staff back. You'll be forced to kill him, sadly enough, which will net you a couple of skill points, as well as the decent Arinth's Robe, which will be usable on your Combat mage unless, again, you've found the robe from the Chaos' Avatar set. |
