Description:
Found in Gulf of Gunthak

You say ‘Hail, Ofala Olan’

Ofala Olan says 'Salutations! It is nice to see one such as you in
these parts; I do get lonely for some intelligent conversation
around here once in awhile. The majority of the time however, I am
much too preoccupied [researching]. There are so many interesting
things to discover in a new area!'

You say ‘What researching’

Ofala Olan says 'Many things actually. The very land of this
island has interesting peculiarities due to the foreign plant life
and substances the pirates have introduced into the ecology. I
have been working most specifically on deciphering what portions
of the strange materials may hold magical properties that could be
useful to our work as Enchanters. Why, just the other day I
believe I was on the verge of a great breakthrough with some odd
substances I had mixed together, unfortunately I was careless and
did not seal the vial tightly enough. When I awoke the next
morning the [specimen] had completely evaporated.'

You say ‘What specimen’

Ofala Olan says 'Among some of the substances I was experimenting
with, I began to notice some peculiar attributes. I noticed some
of the dark priests taking cuttings from certain mushrooms, and
began experimenting with that first. I discovered that they could
be boiled into a salve that had the most wondrous properties for
the eyes! It will take me ages to get the [necessary
components] back to pick up where I left off on that particular
spell, not to mention the research that I am compiling for my
[brother] to assist with his specialties. I have enough material
here to keep me swamped for ages, those spells will just have to
wait!'

You say ‘Who is your brother’

Ofala Olan says 'My brother is also an accomplished enchanter by
the name of Stofo Olan. He has been hard at work in Erudin
researching for his teacher Jeb Lumsed. He has a keen sense for
the properties of stone and other such solid objects. For some
time now he has been attempting to harness the power of stone for
use in some form of mind control, that could be activated through
a piece of jewelry. Entirely by accident, it seems that such a
substance has been in use on this island for some time. It is very
dangerous however, and as such most of my work has been based in
theories tossed back and forth between he and I. Are you
[interested] in this [strange rock] as well?'

You say ‘I am interested in strange rock’

Ofala Olan says 'What a small world! I have skill with gem setting
as many of our kind do, although I am afraid my specialties lie
more with other types of elements and power. There have been
stories of miners down in the Torgiran Mines losing their wits or
becoming near zombie like in their actions. I have a hunch that
whatever is doing this is being harvested there. Take good care
down there, I fear that the miners themselves may not be too
friendly. Travel into the mines and bring me two chunks of
whatever the ore is that they are gathering, be sure it is of the
type that glows brightly. Most likely the miners will have a few
samples, but their masters probably have a few as well. Bring
these to me with an enchanted bar of gold and I can fashion a test
ring from it. Be careful!'


The ore you need is ‘Gleaming Zraxthil Ore’ (No Drop). This can be
found in Torigran. I got 2 of these from Broken Skull guards
although miners can drop this also.

Return to Ofala and hand in 2 Ore and an enchanted Gold bar.

Ofala Olan says 'What a small world! I have skill with gem setting

You receive ‘A Dimley Glowing Ring’ and a ‘Note to Stofo’.

Now head to Erudin and hand the ring and the note to Stofo.

Stofo Olan scans the note quickly and gasps. Hardly glancing at
you, he begins examining the ring, tearing through notes and books
scattered about his dark room. As he pores over a scroll of
parchment covered in strange texts his eyes light up, 'Yes, yes
this is it! Ofala really found something quite remarkable in this
one! Watch my friend.' The slim Erudite slips the ring onto his
finger and the gem begins to throb, Stofo seems to draw the power
into himself for a moment then carefully places the ring back onto
his desk. He closes his eyes a moment then turns to you, the
darkness in his eyes almost lends fear for a moment before he
smiles. 'Thank you my friend, this stone is very dangerous, but I
believe that I have accessed the powers within me through it. Take
these words and use them well, perhaps the power shall work for
you as well, and please tell my dear sister hello.'
