Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura Hints
Gildor Nightwalk wants me to retrieve a gem for him.
1 of 7: You find Gildor in a house in the northern part of town.
2 of 7: He'll tell you the story of the ruby glade and will ask you to go retrieve it for him.
3 of 7: The glade will actually show up on your world map. It's a bit hard to get there right now unless you have teleport, but once you can, go there.
4 of 7: Then, if your character has Prowling, have all your other companions wait, and prowl along the path to the ruby.
5 of 7: If you go off the path and the demons appear, run back to your companions, get them to rejoin you, and fight.
6 of 7: The demons are actually pretty weak (they're only level 10-15), so they shouldn't prove much of a problem.
7 of 7: Either way, once you have the gem, bring it back to Gildor for your reward.
