In level one of the temple dungeon, you may have freed some prisoners, one of whom was Princess Tillahi (probably identified as "elven prisoner").
From that point on, there are bugs:
Sometimes her reward party doesn't show up period.
Sometimes they show up but the blue(?) elven chainmail you're supposed to get isn't given.
I think I got a unicorn ring from her once, but never the chainmail.
If you do a search here and on the Atari ToEE forums you'll find a fix for not getting the elven chainmail, although IIRC you will have to edit a game file to do so.
I have the Co8 patch and still get bugs with the rescue reward, so it has not (AFAIK) ever been fixed completely.
I'll see if I can find the thread that has directions to fix the bug, but meanwhile it is worth noting that the woman (Smigmal Redhand) in Falrinth's section of temple dungeon level 3 has a set of blue elven chainmail, too.
Here you go, courtesy of Auldar's response to the issue on the Atari forum:
"To fix the Blue Elvish chain armour missing from the reward for Spoiler: rescuing Tillahi, edit "Elven Maiden" NPC inventory in data/Rules/InvenSource.mes.
The reason for the bug is that the dialog with the Elven maiden calls a function to transfer the Blue Elvish chain from her inventory to the PC's, however she doesn't *have* the blue elvish chain. She was mistakenly given the *green* chain, twice. As such the transfer fails.
Change this:
{138}{Elven maiden: 100,6214 100,6214 100,6126 100,6057 100,6058 100,4081 100,6027 gold,2-12 silver,4-24 platinum,2-12}
to:
{138}{Elven maiden: 100,6214 100,6125 100,6126 100,6057 100,6058 100,4081 100,6027 gold,2-12 silver,4-24 platinum,2-12}

Sha-zam!
Oh, When all else fail, put the Dwarf up front!
... tut tut.. very dissapointing, hi i'm very new, but very good, *sigh this whole thing could be avoided if you simply attack and kill the elven pricess, you recieve the armour.. money and weapons from her brady bunch behind her!
