Bit behind the times, aren't I?
Well I liked the original, but got out of PC games for a goodly while and thus missed the sequel later. I saw it was down to around $30 at the local Wal-Mart and picked it up. But I'm stuck and don't know how I can kick the plot back into gear.
I've taken a ride on Oswald's amazing crashing airship and cleared the valley area, the glacier area, and both levels of the Aurilite temple. I've done all the tinkering with the prism, killed all of the priestesses, found all the hidden rooms with the teleporting staircase and found everything I can think of and done it.
So here's the thing: the temple architect, Nickademus, says he wants a favor from me and I agreed to do it way back when I first found him. Since then I've found his lost items and done all that other stuff, but every time I go back to him to try to get that favor, he tells me he'll tell me later. He's been telling me he'll tell me later for the better part of a month while he and my party sit on their butts in an empty, frozen temple. What do you have to do to unlock Nick's quest?
I'm half tempted to kill him for the XP and move on, but I messed up a few other quests earlier on (reuniting the ranger with his druid pal and the gnome with his spider) so I'm trying to make up.
Do you have to clear all nine levels of that battle square game or something before he'll let you know what he wants you to do so you can get on with doing it? I've done up through level four. I'm pretty sure the quest is a typical give him back his stuff quest, but I've got his stuff and he wont tell my poor PCs he wants it back.
