Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura Hints
Cassandra Pettibone wants me to retrieve an elven burial stone for her.
1 of 9: You can find Cassandra on the street corner right next to the bridge where you cross into the main part of the city.
2 of 9: She'll tell you to meet her at her house, which is right up the road you're next to, so go to it.
3 of 9: She'll tell you about the quest and will mark the elven ruins on the map.
4 of 9: Whenever you're ready, go there.
5 of 9: When you get to the area, you'll encounter a group of elves, who will attack you -- you can betray Cassandra to be spared, but that will botch the quest.
6 of 9: The elves are fairly easy to kill if you're level 15 or so -- they have bows, but they're not terribly good with them.
7 of 9: Once you kill them, head down into the ruins, and you'll find it's inhabited largely by weak zombies and ghouls, which should pose little or no threat.
8 of 9: The stone you're looking for is off the passage to the north -- it's the really big stone in the middle of the room with some mummies and ghouls.
9 of 9: Once you have it, bring the stone back to Cassandra for your reward (assuming you didn't betray her).
