Spider Cave |
This is the home of the GIFTS (Giant "Intelligent" Friendly Talking Spiders). You should have already heard about them from a number of people like Golizar in Formello. You need to talk to the chief whose name is surprisingly Spider. The only trouble is that all the spiders here seem to be named Spider. (These spiders really seem have a lot of fantasy!)

Spider | Chief | It is a bit of a pain trying to get information out of these spiders. They are all named Spider and tell you to talk to Spider. The one by the name of Spider who will give you the mission to free a spider prisoner from the Araneae to the west is to be found in the northeast of the caves. You have just got to be persistent and talk to them all until you find the right one. | Quest |
It is always a good idea to talk to everybody. The following notes give hints on hidden rooms, traps and puzzles.
There are few things you can pick up here. All I found was a bottle of Almaria Yellow '91 in the SW.
When you have freed the prisoner, you have to find the spider who gave you the mission. When you eventually find him, he gives you 25 xp and 1 reputation and opens a passage to the north which you can loot as soon as you have killed the five wights which are skulking around. The Malachite Brooch is on the corpse in the NE corner. The other bodies also have a few useful items.
