The Crystal Disks: Cyrus is Late

Did we miss anything in this section? Is there something we didn't discover? Let us know!


Overview

One of the quests for the crystal disks has you following Cyrus in order to find the druid who can heal the broken disk from the first chapter.

Cyrus is Late

This quest is received from Inquisitor Mendoza (#1) once you talk to him about the crystal disks. He'll say that the broken disk they recovered earlier from the excavation sites (during chapter I) needed to be repaired by the druids. Cyrus was the one to handle the issue, but he's been missing.

Your task is therefore to find Cyrus. He's located over at the druid's hut at #2. To reach him, you'll need to cross a tunnel a bit to the south. Talk to him and you'll finish the quest with 250 experience. Cyrus was hoping that Eldric would show up anytime soon, but he had no luck so far. He'll suggesting searching the hut for clues.


Searching the Druid's Hut

Having talked to Cyrus (#2) about the druid Eldric, search the hut to find a sleeve. Pick up the green patch of cloth and you'll receive 150 experience.

Talking to Cyrus gives you 50 additional experience, along with information that he's seen another hut a bit to the south. Since he plans to stay at the hut in case the druid shows up, he sends you to that direction.


No Sign of Eldric

Since Eldric isn't really planning on returning soon, your only option is to check out the hut to the south that Cyrus (#2) told you about. Head over to #3 where you'll meet Jasmin and her pet Rufo. Tell her about Eldric who's missing and she'll offer to help you if you buy a pack of her skins. You'll have to pay 200 gold for that and then she'll lend you Rufo who can track down the druid for you.

To get Rufo to trust you, you'll need to give him a piece of raw meat. In case you don't have one, Jasmin can sell you some. Afterwards, just show him the sleeve and follow him. While you're following Rufo, you'll come across Cyrus again. Talk to him and ask him to join you. He'll come in handy once you have to fight.

Every once in a while, you'll have to hold out sleeve to Rufo, and at the end you'll reach the temple entrance (#4). In order to pass that red barrier, consult Cyrus. He'll give you some scrolls which you can use to remove the obstacle. Upon entering you'll encounter a few lizardmen. After dispatching them, head to the right to find a region map of the place (#5) as it's going to be useful.

After you're done exploring the corridors, move to the main area of the temple. There's an Inferno scroll at #6, guarded by a lizard priest. He shoots rather powerful fireballs, so try not to get hit. To cross the chasm, use Levitation spell. The room at #7 contains a watchman - a warden who has the key to the cells in the same room. Defeat him, loot the key and then explore the cells. The ones on the lower floor aren't particularly interesting, but one on the upper floor has a crystal used in smithing and an ogre captive named Grok (#8).

Once you free him, ask him about the whereabouts of Eldric and he'll talk about a ring which you can pull to reach him. You'll also gain the Ogre Friend achievement. Next thing would be to move to the place Grok described, which is the room behind #9. First thing though, will be to use the winch located near #9 to open that door. Afterwards, look for the metal ring at #10 to open up a secret passage.

Eldric is located at #11. Before reaching him, you'll fight a priest who drops a teleport stone, along with a nice amulet and a few scrolls. As soon as you talk to Eldric, you'll receive 500 experience, which ends this quest.


Get the Damaged Disk from Cyrus

After talking to Eldric (#11) and mentioning the disc, talk to Cyrus who should be near you (as your companion) and ask him about the disc. He'll be unpleasantly surprised that Eldric doesn't want him during the ritual, so he hands over the disc to you because he knows that the Inquisitor would be angry if he didn't get it repaired in any way.

Anyway, you'll receive 200 experience for this. Next step is to talk to Eldric again.


Follow Eldric to His Hut

After obtaining the disc for Cyrus, Eldric (#11) will suggest moving over to his hut in order to prepare for the cleansing ritual. Just follow Eldric until you reach his hut again (#2). Once you arrive at the hut, you'll get 100 experience. Talk to Eldric again to prepare the ritual.


The Broken Disk

After saving Eldric from the lizardmens' temple, talk to him about the damaged disk. He'll say that he can attempt to heal it, but he needs an active magic crystal for that. At first he'll hint that the monastery has those, but he'll also say that there's one in his chest.

Once you give him the crystal, he'll warn you to inform him about the mysteries of the volcano temple that you and Inquisitor are trying to open. There could be many secrets inside which should be carefully handled. This gives another quest Report to the Druid about the Temple, which can be completed in chapter 3.

Once ready, talk to him about charging the crystal again. Eldric will lead you to a small shrine located at #12. Talk to him again to initiate and complete the ritual. The quest then completes with 250 experience and a disk in your hands. Before leaving, Eldric warns you one more time about the Inquisitor and the whole plan of his.


Eldric Needs a Magic Crystal

To continue with the ritual, you'll need a magic crystal which you can find in Eldric's hut (#2). Once he gives you the key, just loot it from the chest and get back to him. This mini-quest ends with 200 experience.

You might also wish to take that recipe for permanent mana increase potions right below the broken table to the right of the chest.
