Grand Magister Arkenias:
There is a way, but...well, I did promise to help. Just don't tell anyone that I told you this.
Ever heard of Hardin? He's a wizard from the Ivory Tower, back from the time of Elmoreden.
He was extraordinary in talent, but his ambitions reached too far. Far enough to get his hands on dark magic.
You can find him at Hardin's Academy. Well, I'll be on my way, then.
