PQUCIHOR \_______________________________________________________
------------------------------------------------------------ -----------------
Side Quest: Arioc Blockade
------------------------------------------------------------ -----------------
Location: Horned Temple
Requirements: Have completed the Story Quest Trial by Fire
Info: The pass to Ar has been blocked by Hill Giants. You must confront
them, chase them away and clear the path.
Places Unlocked: Ar
Completion:
Ar is a small area right in between the Horned Temple and Alfland, which
provides you a shortcut between your lands and the Realms of War.
Unfortunately, there is a huge road block in the way by the form of a Hill
Giant. The Hill Giant is found between the Horned Temple and Ar. Defeating
a Hill Giant is no easy task. Hill Giants have lots of Battle and HP.
Also, they have the Thump! skill which deals direct damage and the Stomp!
skill, which can stun you and get rid of all the Green Gems on the board.
Depending on your level, this might be a difficult battle to win. If you
manage to defeat the Hill Giant, you will continue on to Ar. When you reach
Ar, you will receive a message to head back to the Horned Temple. Make the
return trip and you will receive a reward.
Reward: +200 Gold, +150 Experience

Side Quest: Sacred Flame
------------------------------------------------------------ -----------------
Location: Horned Temple
Requirements: Have completed the Story Quest Trial by Fire
Info: You must journey to the Volcano and help the Firewalkers to relight
their Sacred Flame.
Places Unlocked: Volcano (eventually disappears)
Completion:
Now that you are a Firewalker, you will need to perform some duties that a
Firewalker performs. One of those duties is relighting the Sacred Flame at
the Volcano. To relight the Sacred Flame, you will need to defeat a Fire
Elemental. This is the same fight you did when you completed the Trial by
Fire mission. Fire Elementals have the spell Wall of Fire, which causes all
damage you deal to be taken from their Red Mana. Also, they can cast the
spell Fire Siphon, which drains your Red Mana and heals the Elemental. If
you've defeated the Elemental the first time, you should be able to defeat
it the second time. When the Fire Elemental is defeated, return back to the
Horned Temple with the flame. This will relight the Sacred Flame and your
mission will have been completed.
Reward: +200 Gold, +150 Experience

Side Quest: Fresh Eyes
------------------------------------------------------------ -----------------
Location: Horned Temple
Requirements: Have completed the Story Quest Skull of Sartek
Info: You must somehow replace the Orb you stole from the Elves of
Silvermyr.
Places Unlocked: Dragon's Graveyard (disappears eventually)
Completion:
Sunspear detects that you are troubled over the whole deal with the Elves
and the stealing of the Eyes of Sartek. He suggests you make it up to them
by providing them with the eye of a Dragon to replace the eye you stole. In
order to get an eye of a Dragon, you must head over to the Dragon's
Graveyard, which is northwest of the Dragon Valley. However, you end up
getting jumped by a Dragon Spider in the process. Dragon Spiders can
inflict Poison with their attacks. Also, they can use the Web spell which
will stun you for a couple of turns and the Breathe Fire spell, which deals
direct damage to you. When you have defeated the Dragon Spider, you will
find the eye you have been looking for. Now, make your way over to
Silvermyr. Queen Titania will still be very upset at you for you reviving
Sartek. Apparently, Sartek is no friend of the Elves, but neither is Lord
Bane or the Undead. Apparently, even your gift of a new eye will not heal
relations between you and the Elves. Well, Elves were never big on doing
things until it was too late to stop it. Just leave the Elves to live in
their deluded world as you go out and save their hides.
Reward: +260 Experience

Places Unlocked: None
Completion:
Minotaurs are causing havok in the Realms of War. What else is new? The
Minotaur tribes in question are located in Hornburg. Make your way over to
Hornburg and challenge the Minotaur. You should be familiar with Minotaurs
by now and how they attack. When the Minotaur at Hornburg is defeated, your
quest will be complete. It's almost too easy. For some reason, you can
repeat this quest, but that's only for Gold and Experience. You should have
already captured a Minotaur by now.
Special Quest Notes: Repeatable indefinitely.
Reward: +200 Gold, +150 Experience

Location: Tusk
Requirements: Have completed the Story Quest Horns of Sartek
Info: You must chase away the Gnolls that have been desecrating The Pike.
Places Unlocked: None
Completion:
Gnolls have been seen at The Pike. Your job is to get rid of the Gnolls
there. Head south to The Pike and attack the Gnolls. Gnolls start off
relatively easy. However, each time they match up Gold or Experience, they
get stronger and more powerful due to their Gnoll Pack accessory. Try to
finish off the Gnoll as soon as possible in order to avoid having to deal
with a much stronger opponent. When the Gnoll is defeated, the rest of the
Gnolls will scatter and your mission will be complete.
Reward: +100 Gold, +100 Experience

Requirements: Have completed the Story Quest Horns of Sartek
Info: You must travel to Arik's Arena to battle the Minotaur King and
recover a magical helm.
Places Unlocked: Arik's Arena (disappears eventually)
Completion:
According to Minotaur law, everything goes to the strongest fighter.
Therefore, in order to get a magical helm away from a Minotaur King, you
must defeat the Minotaur King and take the helm. The Minotaur King in
question can be found at Arik's Arena, which is south of Tusk. When you
reach Arik's Arena, challenge the Minotaur King. Minotaur Kings are the
same as Minotaurs except for the fact that they have the Berserk Rage spell
which turns Red Gems into Skulls. This particular Minotaur has the Freeze
spell, which can turn Red Mana into Blue Mana, which almost completely makes
the Berserk Rage spell useless. Along with these two spells, the Minotaur
King also has the Charge! skill, which takes out an entire row and deals
damage to you, and comes equipped with a Great Axe, which gives him a 50%
chance to take another turn if he deals damage to you. You should treat
this as a normal Minotaur battle except against a stronger Minotaur. When
you have defeated the Minotaur King, you receive the helm as your prize
along with some Experience.
Reward: +250 Experience, Drowning Helm

Completion:
The Queen of the High Elves, Queen Ehlanna, also known as the Ice Queen, has
requested your presence. Elistara tells you that it is very important and
wants you to go right away. Unfortunately, in your way will be a
Doomknight. Doomknights should be a common foe right now, so you should
know how to dispatch one of these (it's mainly just throwing your best
spells or looping anyways). When you appear before the Queen, your smart
mouth almost gets you in trouble with the Queen. You receive a reward from
the Queen as a thank you for your efforts in regards to the Skullguard Keep.
That was well worth the trip.

going out due to Lord Bane's armies. You must go to both of these places
and battle a Fire Elemental to re-light the flames. Fire Elementals have a
decent Fire Resistance along with the spell Wall of Fire, which can direct
all damage you do to their Red Mana, and the spell Fire Siphon, which drains
your Red Mana to heal them. When you defeat the first Fire Elemental, you
must go to the second keep and defeat the second Fire Elemental. When both
Fire Elementals are defeated, you will be rewarded.

is probably one of the first Dragons you ever went toe to toe with. Frost
Dragons have four spells to go along with their high stats. They have the
Breathe Ice spell, which deals damage to you based on their Blue Mana. To
increase the power of this spell, they can use the Channel Water spell,
which increase their Blue Mana. Also, they have the Wing Buffet spell,
which destroys all Yellow Gems on the board and stuns you, and the Tail Whip
spell, which is a direct damage spell. A potent foe indeed. Because of the
Frost Dragon's weapon and because of it's Wing Buffet spell, Yellow Mana may
be hard to come by. When you have defeated the Frost Dragon, you will
receive some treasure it was guarding.

Harpies have the ability to halve your Yellow Mana with the Swoop spell.
Also, they have the Charm spell, which destroys all Skulls on the board and
heals them based on that. Finally, since this is the Harpy Queen, she is
stronger and tougher than the other Harpies. She has the Stun spell, which
can prevent you from taking a couple of turns. This spell is the one you
need to look out for, as a couple of turns can turn into a long wait as they
can set themselves up to match 4 and 5 gems in a row. When the Harpy Queen
is defeated, you will receive your reward.

you to free the mines from the Undead. The Ice Crystal Mine is east of
Iceguard Keep. Make your way over to the mine and attack the Undead there.

the Baneguard and Lord Bane himself. Lord Bane tells you that the Elves

Battle and Morale skill and they have two more spells. Those spells are
Cleave, which destroys all Yellow Gems on the board and deals damage to you
based off of that, and Bone Strike, which can reduce your Green Mana to 0.

Citadel. They are probably going there to deliver a shipment of weapons for
Lord Bane's army, so jump the caravan before it can reach the Citadel. Make

be a common foe. They can Duplicate your items and use them against you.
They can also inflict the Fire Bomb status on you, which will deal damage to
you if you have too much Red Mana. Finally, their Flame Cannon is like a
Catapults Besiege on steroids. It will target four gems and destroy

be stopped and you will receive your reward.

Info: Arboleth have been sighted near the Lake of Blood. You must drive
them away.

anywhere near them, so it's your mission to drive it away. Make your way
over to the Lake of Blood and attack the Arboleth. Arboleths can heal
themselves whenever you cast a spell. Furthermore, their spell set is
designed to give them as much Mana as possible with Wild Magic and Consume
Mana and then hit you hard with a Chaos Bolt, which is a direct damage
spell. Finally, they have a 10% Spell Resistance for all spell fields, so
it may be difficult to cast a spell on them. When the Arboleth is defeated,

PQUCHARQ \_______________________________________________________
The second classification of side quests are character side quests. These
side quests are mainly centered around one of your companions. Some of these
quests give you the chance to recruit the characters into your group, while
others are designed to flesh out the companions and complete their
storylines.
Not all of these side quests are centered around your companions. Some of
these quests involve other characters in the game, such as Neehi or the two
Giant Brothers.

Lord of Orcs

Kor.
Places Unlocked: None
Completion:

for him. He's looking for an acquaintance in Northern Kor. Northern Kor is
north of Dhun-Kor, so make your way over there and search the area. You
will end up finding a Wight and having to fight it. Wights can steal your
Red Mana and convert it to Blue Mana for them. Also, if they have 30 Blue
Mana, they can use their Spectral Force skill, which can make your miss a
few turns, so avoid that if possible. When the Wight is defeated,
Darkhunter cannot find his acquaintance. Since there is nothing else to do,
your quest is complete.

Greythane.
Places Unlocked: None
Completion:
More of Darkhunter's past is coming out. Darkhunter needs to go to
Maethelburg, the place where he is not allowed at, to talk to Lord
Greythane. Even though he isn't talking about his past still, something is
bound to come out. Anyways, make your way over to Maethelburg. Lord
Greythane is not exactly welcoming of Darkhunter and asks Darkhunter to
leave. Darkhunter refuses and still wants to talk, but Lord Greythane is
beyond talking and sends a Knight to attack you. The Knight has the skill
Divine Right and Thrust, neither of which is anything to worry about, so
this shouldn't be too hard of a battle. When the Knight is defeated,
Darkhunter decides to leave, still refusing to provide any information about
this person named Liandra. Once again, a quest for Darkhunter ends in
failure.

with the old acquaintance. The meeting place is an area called Sartek's
Maze, which is west of Tusk. When you get there, wait for the meeting. You
will see that Liandra will appear and have a pleasant conversation with
Darkhunter. By pleasant, I mean unexpectedly twisted. Liandra has turned
undead and has a new master who wants Darkhunter to become undead as well.
Darkhunter refuses and Liandra promises to meet up with Darkhunter again.
Now Darkhunter's story has gotten a little bit more interesting.

Location: Ylarie
Requirements: Have Darkhunter in your party and complete the Story Quest
Northern Tundra and the Side Quest Liandra's Offer
Info: Darkhunter has received another summons to meet with Liandra. You
must accompany him once again.
Places Unlocked: Skullguard Keep
Completion:
Liandra isn't finished with Darkhunter yet. She says she wants to return to
Darkhunter, but you and Darkhunter know better. She wants to bring
Darkhunter to the Undead side. You will need to hide while Darkhunter talks
to Liandra alone. The meeting place is Skullguard Keep, which is north of
Ylarie. Make your way over to there and meet with Liandra. Of course, it's
a trap and of course, Liandra underestimated Darkhunter. You jump out and
attack Liandra to assist Darkhunter.
+----------------------------------------------------------- ---------------+
| Boss Battle: Liandra |
| |
| Info: Like an Arkliche, she has the Death Gaze and the Soul Swap spells |
| along with a high Fire Resistance. She also has the ability to cast |
| Charm and Chaos Bolt. |
| |
| Equipment: |
| Helmet and Crowns: Noble Helm |
| Adds +4 to your Morale Skill |
| Armor: Death Shroud |
| Creates a +5 Skull for every 8 points of damage that you take (max |
| 3 per turn) |
| Weapon: Arkliche Staff |
| Reduces the enemy's Experience Points by 2 for every point of |
| damage you do |
| Miscellaneous: Arkliche Ring |
| Generates a point of each color Mana for every 3 points of |
| Experience you receive |
| |
| Skills: |
| Death Gaze |
| Does damage equal to half of enemy's current Life Points. |
| Randomly creates a Skull for every 5 damage done |
| Soul Swap |
| Swaps Mana Reserves with your enemy. Does not end your turn |
| Charm |
| All Skulls in play are destroyed. Adds +1 to Life Points for |
| every Skull destroyed |
| Chaos Bolt |
| Does damage equal to the Mana of a random Mana Reserve. The |
| respective Mana Reserve is reduced to zero |
| |
| Tips: |
| Liandra is quite the formidable foe. Darkhunter knows how to pick |
| his women well. The Death Gaze spell cuts your Life Points in half, |
| which means it won't kill you, but it is a nice opening move to set |
| set you up for death. The Soul Swap is there just in case you think |
| you think you are doing better than she is. The Charm spell will |
| heal herself while the Chaos Bolt just gives her another way to kill |
| you. She also has a 25% Fire Resistance, which means that your Red |
| Mana spells won't be working a fourth of the time. Finally, her |
| her equipment allows her to be all shades of annoying. Her weapon |
| will drain your hard earned Experience points, although luckily, it |
| doesn't take too much of it away. Her Death Shroud will cause random |
| +5 Skulls to appear on the board. If anything, the only good thing |
| about Liandra is that she is Undead, which allows Darkhunter to pop |
| her for ten Life Points at the start of the battle. At least he is |
| doing something before letting you deal with his girlfriend. You |
| really should know better than to get into the middle of disputes |
| between a man and his dead girlfriend. |
+----------------------------------------------------------- ---------------+
Darkhunter tells you that finally, Liandra can rest in peace. There's just
one more thing left to do in regards to Liandra.
Reward: +150 Experience

Location: Ylarie
Requirements: Have Darkhunter in your party and complete the Side Quest
Liandra's Return
Info: You must accompany Darkhunter as he returns Liandra's ashes to her
home in Maethelburg.
Places Unlocked: None
Completion:
Darkhunter must now deal with the final task left involving his fallen love.
He must take her ashes to her home land in Maethelburg. Lord Greythane
probably won't be very happy to see Darkhunter and to hear the news of his
daughter, but this is something that must be done. The journey will be long
and there will be a bunch of random monsters in the way. When you reach
Maethelburg, Lord Greythane will first attempt to kick you and Darkhunter
out of the Red Tower. However, Darkhunter returns the ashes of Liandra to
Lord Greythane. Lord Greythane tells Darkhunter that he should be cursed
forever and Darkhunter agrees.
Reward: +300 Experience

Ogre Magic
Info: Khalkus would like you to help him find part of a device called the
Great Machine.
Places Unlocked: None
Completion:
Khalkus apparently talked to the Ogres in Gluk, which is a feat unto itself,
and heard about an Ogre Mage in Gork that has part of something called the
Great Machine. What the Great Machine does, no one knows, but Khalkus wants
it badly, so help him out and head to Gork to get that part of the Great
Machine. Make your way north to Gork and battle the Ogre Mage. Ogre Mages,
when attacked, will cause a +5 Skull to appear at random. They can also
create Wildcards on the field, so also watch out for that. When you have
defeated the Ogre Mage, you will have found the part of the Great Machine,
which apparently is just a metal gear. Of course, Khalkus thinks this is
the greatest thing since the dawn of creation, so as long as he is happy and
quiet, the rest of the world should be happy.

gear can be found in Alfland and is being held by a Centaur. Apparently,
curiosity is getting the better of you, so make your way over to Alfland and
confront the Centaur about the Gear. He won't give it to you without a
fight, so you might as well fight him. He is a regular Centaur, which means
he has the Archery skill, which deals damage to you based on your Yellow
Mana. The more you have, the more damage you will take. When you have
defeated the Centaur, you will have the second gear, which turns out just to
be another metal cog. Of course, Khalkus is just going crazy over it, so

Side Quest: Third Gear
------------------------------------------------------------ -----------------
Location: Dhun-Kor
Requirements: Have Khalkus in your party and have completed the Story Quest
Horns of Sartek and the Side Quest Second Gear
Info: You must help Khalkus find the third piece of the Great Machine.
Places Unlocked: Worm Cave (disappears eventually)
Completion:
Apparently, Khalkus has built a device that can locate pieces of the Great
Machine. The detector has picked up a piece that is located in the a Worm
Cave. Of course, with it being a Worm Cave, it means that there is a Worm
in there. The Worm you are fighting is the Sandworm. Sandworms are nasty
in the fact that they can use Sinkhole with will halve all of your Mana
Reserves except for your Green Mana, which gets added on to the Sandworm's
Green Mana Reserves. This just sets up the Swallow Whole skill, which deals
damage to you based on their Green Mana. Furthermore, they can use the Hide
skill, which when Hidden, an enemy will deal double damage. The only way to
get rid of the Hidden status effect is by hitting the enemy. When the
Sandworm is defeated, you will find the third piece of the Great Machine.
This time, it is more than just a cog. Finally, something impressive is
starting to build up.
Reward: +100 Gold, +135 Experience

Side Quest: Fourth Gear
------------------------------------------------------------ -----------------
Location: Tusk
Requirements: Have Khalkus in your party and have completed the Story Quest
Tail of Sartek and the Side Quest Third Gear
Info: You must help Khalkus gather the fourth piece of the Great Machine.
Places Unlocked: Arik's Arena (disappears eventually)
Completion:
Khalkus' device is going off again and this time, it seems like it's a big
piece of the machine. The detector is detecting the gear is at a Minotaur's
Arena south of Tusk. Khalkus thinks he can buy the gear from the Minotaur,
but you probably know better than that. Make your way to Arik's Arena and
face off with the Minotaur King. Minotaur Kings are the same as Minotaurs
except they are stronger with more Life Points and have the Berserk Rage
spell, which can turn Red Gems into Skulls. When you have defeated the
Minotaur King, according to Minotaur law, the strongest takes whatever he
wants from the loser. In this case, you want the Fourth Gear of the Great
Machine.
Reward: +1250 Gold, +250 Experience

Side Quest: Fifth Gear
------------------------------------------------------------ -----------------
Location: Ehlariel
Requirements: Have Khalkus in your party and have completed the Side Quests
Elven Forge and Fourth Gear
Info: You must help Khalkus find the fifth piece of the Great Machine.
Places Unlocked:
Completion:
Khalkus has detected the last piece of the Great Machine. It is in a castle
to the north that is owned by Dark Dwarves. The castle is named Kal-Unger.
Here, you will need to fight a Dark Dwarf to get the fifth gear. Dark
Dwarves are not about power. They are more about cunning and using various
methods to annoy you while dealing damage to you. Dark Dwarves can
Duplicate an item you own and equip it to themselves. Granted, they are
already decked out in a full set of Full Plate Armor, but if you have
something they want, they can have it. Also, they can use the spell Fire
Bomb, which gives you the Fire Bomb status. If your Red Mana gets above 12
while you are under the Fire Bomb status, you will take five damage.
Finally, they can cast the spell Flame Cannon, which is like a powered up
version of Besiege that the Catapults use. Flame Cannon destroys four
random Gems, destroying everything around those Gems and providing the full
effect of all Gems destroyed. When the Dark Dwarf is defeated, Khalkus will
inform you that a piece is missing off of the final gear. The button that
turns on the Great Machine is missing. Looks like there is just one more
thing left to do before you find out what exactly the Great Machine does.
Reward: +250 Gold, +250 Experience

Side Quest: Assembly Required
------------------------------------------------------------ -----------------
Location: Kal-Unger
Requirements: Have Khalkus in your party and have completed the Side Quests
Fifth Gear
Info: You must finally help Khalkus put the Great Machine together.
Places Unlocked:
Completion:
You must find the button that starts up the Great Machine. Of course
Khalkus would rather talk about it than do something about it. Hunt for the
button in the city of Kal-Unger. Another Dark Dwarf has the button. This
Dark Dwarf is the same as the Dark Dwarf you fought for the fifth piece,
which means you have to deal with the spells Duplicate, Fire Bomb, and Flame
Cannon. When this Dark Dwarf is defeated, Khalkus almost has an orgasm
after finally realizing that he has assembled the Great Machine. What the
machine does is anyone's guess, so just start up the machine and hope it
works. Khalkus asks for an old item that you may have. You give him your
Broken Shield that was given to you by your father so long ago during the
first few quests. When the Great Machine is done with the Shield, the
Shield is better than new. Why can't you do that with all of your items?
Reward: +450 Experience, Shield of Albion

Side Quest: Spider Meat
------------------------------------------------------------ -----------------
Location: Gluk
Requirements: Have unlocked the city of Gluk during the Story Quest Ogre
Magic
Info: Drong the Ogre is looking for someone to hunt down some exotic
creatures for him to eat.
Places Unlocked: Dragon Valley, Drong's Tower
Completion:
Drong, an Ogre, has heard about you and your exploits in fighting. Drong
doesn't fight, but he wants to hire you to find him a Dragon Spider so he
can eat it. Apparently, he likes eating exotic stuff and is willing to
trade you a magical hat for one, so it's time to find a Dragon Spider. The
Dragon Spider can be found in the Dragon Valley, which is north of Northern
Kor. When you reach the Dragon Valley, search for a spider. Dragon Spiders
can poison you and can also cast the Web spell, which stuns you, and can
cast the spell Breath Fire, which can deal damage to you. When the Dragon
Spider is defeated, make your way over to Drong's Tower to present him with
the spider meat and receive your reward.
Reward: Ogreblood Helm, +50 Experience

Side Quest: Troll Meat
------------------------------------------------------------ -----------------
Location: Gluk
Requirements: Have completed the Side Quest Spider Meat
Info: Drong the Ogre is after some more food - this time it is a Troll.
Places Unlocked: Troll Hole (disappears eventually)
Completion:
Drong has another item he wants to eat. The next course, after Spider, is
obviously Troll. However, not just any Troll, but an Ice Troll, which
you've fought before for Neehi. Drong has been hanging around bad
influences again. Either way, this time he will offer to give you a magic
stick, which seems like it's a downgrade from the magic helm you received in
the past, but either way, it's time to find an Ice Troll. The Ice Troll can
be found in the Troll Hole, which is east of Alfland. Ice Trolls are just
like regular Trolls except for the fact that they have the Freeze spell.
Just like regular Trolls, if they have a lot of Blue Mana, they will begin
to use the spell Regeneration, which restores some of their life, which is
very annoying. When you manage to drain the life bar of the Ice Troll, take
the carcass back to Drong's Tower and present the feast to Drong to complete
your mission.
Reward: Trollblood Helm, +50 Experience

Side Quest: Wyvern Meat
------------------------------------------------------------ -----------------
Location: Gluk
Requirements: Have completed the Side Quest Troll Meat
Info: Drong the Ogre is after some more food - this time it is a Wyvern.
Places Unlocked: Wyvern's Roost (disappears eventually)
Completion:
Drong has something else on the menu. Apparently, the troll meat isn't
going down so easily, so now Drong needs something to wash it down with and
a Wyvern's poison will do the trick just nicely. Drong tells you that you
can find a Wyvern in the Wyvern's Roost and has a magical stone for you if
you get him the meat. The Wyvern's Roost is south of Blood Moon, so make
your way over there. Wyverns can poison you and can also use the Rend
spell, which deals direct damage to you and while allowing them to still
take their turn. When you have defeated the Wyvern, make your way over to
Drong's Tower and give him the Wyvern to eat. He will have a special
request for you later on.
Reward: Wyrmblood Helm, +50 Experience

Side Quest: Ogre Meat
------------------------------------------------------------ -----------------
Location: Gluk
Requirements: Have completed the Side Quest Wyvern Meat
Info: Drong the Ogre has a special request for you. There is something
very unusual that he would like you get for him to eat.
Places Unlocked: None
Completion:
Drong has one more thing that he would like to eat...for now. What he wants
to eat an Ogre, which is really weird, considering the fact that he is an
Ogre himself and is surrounded by Ogres. Either way, he will give you his
magical hanky (which is probably very dirty) if you give him an Ogre to eat.
You should find lots of Ogres in Gork, so make your way over to there and
fight an Ogre. Of course, to feed Drongs appetite, you will have to defeat
a big Ogre. Big Ogres mean they are stronger and tougher to defeat. When
you have taken the big Ogre down, make your way back to Drong's Tower and
give him the Ogre. Apparently, Drong's hanky is a rare cloak, so take it
and move on with life.
Reward: Earthblood Cloak, +250 Gold

Side Quest: Serpent Meat
------------------------------------------------------------ -----------------
Location: Gluk
Requirements: Have completed the Side Quest Ogre Meat
Info: Drong the Ogre would like you fetch him a serpent to eat, but not
just any serpent will do...
Places Unlocked: None
Completion:
Drong is still not full yet. He wants to eat a Sea Serpent. He has heard
they can be found at Drakenburg. It's a long trip over there and you will
probably run into all sorts of random monsters in your way. If you complete
the journey and get him the Sea Serpent, he has a surprise for you at the
end. Make your way over to Drakenburg, which is a very long trip. When you
finally reach Drakenburg, you will have to take on a Sea Serpent. Sea
Serpents can Spit Poison at you, which not only poisons you, but also blinds
you. When you have finally gotten the meat from the Sea Serpent, make the
long trip back to Drong's Tower. Again, you will probably end up facing
many random monsters along the way. When you finally reach the tower, Drong
will have his feast of Sea Serpent. When he is done, he will inform you
that his surprise is that he is joining you on your quest as one of your
companions. Apparently, he wants to eat many things in this world (and he
will, too), so you might as well just accept his companionship.
Reward: +150 Experience

Side Quest: Granite
------------------------------------------------------------ -----------------
Location: Horned Temple
Requirements: Have Drong in your party and have completed the Story Quest
Slave Trail
Info: You must find some Granite for Drong to eat.
Places Unlocked: None
Completion:
Drong is all about eating everything and this time he has something weird he
wants to eat. Drong wants to eat a granite statue in the Valley of Kings.
On your way to the Valley of Kings, you will probably get stopped by a
Liche. Liches can randomly create +5 Skulls when you deal damage to them,
which can either be a good thing or a bad thing. It's a good thing if you
manage to get an extra turn and it's a bad thing if you don't. Also, the
Liche has the spell Death Gaze, which is kind of like the poor man's version
of the Warrior skill Deathbringer. When you make it to the Valley of Kings,
Drong will have already eaten the statue. How anyone can eat rock, I have
no clue.

Side Quest: Volcanic Rock
------------------------------------------------------------ -----------------
Location: Horned Temple
Requirements: Have Drong in your party and have completed the Story Quest
Trial by Fire and the Side Quest Granite
Info: You must travel to the Volcano with Drong and help him find some
tasty Volcanic Rock. The Volcano is home to many Fire Elementals.
Places Unlocked: Volcano (disappears eventually)
Completion:
Before, Drong was big into eating the meat of various creatures. Now, it
seems like Drong has a taste for rocks. This time, the rock of choice is a
volcanic rock from the Volcano. Well, it's time to go back to the Volcano.
Of course, when you are on the Volcano, you are probably going to run into a
Fire Elemental. Fire Elementals have the Wall of Fire spell, which
redirects all damage you deal to the Fire Elemental to his Red Mana
Reserves. Also, they have the Fire Siphon skill, which can drain your Red
Mana and heal the Fire Elemental. Of course, you should be very well versed
in fighting one of these, since you've had to do so to advance in the story.
When the Fire Elemental is defeated, Drong will find some tasty volcanic
rock and be satisfied...for now...

Location: Ylarie
Requirements: Have Drong in your party and have completed the Side Quests
Volcanic Rock and The Banesguard
Info: You must travel to the beach at Tirianin to help find sandstone for
Drong to eat. The beach is guarded by Sea Serpents.
Places Unlocked: None
Completion:
Drong wants to eat another rock. This time, it's a sandstone. There is a
Sandstone at the beach of Tirianin. Unfortunately for you, it is being
guarded by a Sea Serpent. Well, you knew this wasn't just a quest to pick
up a rock on the beach. Sea Serpents can Spit Poison at you, which will
Poison you and Blind you at the same time. The Poison is bad enough, but
Blind prevents you from using any skills or spells. When the Sea Serpent is
defeated, you will obtain the sandstone, which Drong will eat. I wonder if
you can cook the rocks?

Side Quest: Diamond

Location: Ehlariel
Requirements: Have Drong in your party and have completed the Side Quest
Sandstone
Info: You must travel to the Lake of Blood to help find diamonds for Drong
to eat. The Dark Dwarves are fiercely protective of their diamonds.
Places Unlocked: None
Completion:
On the menu: more rocks. This time, it's a diamond. Can you eat a
diamond? Drong can. Drong can eat anything. Make your way over to the
Lake of Blood and fight the Dark Dwarves for a diamond. Dark Dwarves can
Duplicate your equipment and use it against you. They can also inflict you
with the Fire Bomb status, which will deal damage to you if have too much
Red Mana. Finally, their Flame Cannon spell will randomly target four Gems
on the board and destroy them and all the Gems around it. Dark Dwarves,
luckily, are not very powerful, so if you can get past all the annoying
things they do, you can beat them pretty easily. When the Dark Dwarf is
defeated, Drong eats a diamond. He ends up breaking a tooth on one. Serves
him right. Some things are not meant to be eaten. Some things are meant to
be sold for lots of money.
