A messenger called me back to the sphere.
  • 1 of 9: Yep, and I suggest going back too.
  • 2 of 9: Teos will appear, but he will not know what's going on.
  • 3 of 9: Obviously, it's an ambush.  The messenger will return with a whole lot of backup.
  • 4 of 9: Kill them, and Teos will reappear.
  • 5 of 9: Teos will tell you that it's the doing of Lord Argrim, a serious anti-magic fanatic.
  • 6 of 9: He will give you a rune and tells you to use it on Argrim.  He also tells you not to kill Argrim.
  • 7 of 9: Go to the inn in the city gates, and go upstairs.
  • 8 of 9: Use the rune on him from your quick item slot, and then kill off his guards.
  • 9 of 9: Go back to Teos for a little XP and some explanation about Imoen.
