Might and Magic VIII: Day of the Destroyer Hints
Ally with the Necromancers.
1 of 7: Talk to Sandro and Thant about that.
2 of 7: They're lounging around in their mutual throne room in the Necromancers' Guild in Shadowspire.
3 of 7: Take the big transparent lift in the SE corner of the guild building.
4 of 7: Talking to them, you'll discover that the Temple of the Sun in Murmurwoods stole their precious Nightshade Brazier. They want you to get it back for them.
5 of 7: If you do, they'll join the alliance, and Sandro will head off to the Merchant House of Alvar in Ravenshore. (Thant will also go somewhere, but his head will be in the throne room after Sandro leaves, though it won't say anything.)
6 of 7: Note that the throne room is permanently locked when you push past the guarded area that's past the central locked door (the one you can only open with Dyson Leyland in your party).
7 of 7: That means that if you want to ally with the Necros, you have to do so before rescuing the shield Eclipse, since you have to push past the guard point to do that.
