Solberg	Mage	Solberg has decided to hide away in this remote place, mainly in order to get away from Linda who has brought the demon Adze-Haakai into the Tower of Magi. He talks about the Demonslayer and if you already have retieved any parts of it, will confirm that they are really parts of the wonderful blade and that you can get it repaired in Fort Draco. He will later teach you some spells, give you some useful information about Grah-Hoth and will help you in your fight against him.	extremely cheap

Notes

The recluse Solberg talks a lot, but does not like giving any real information. He lets you sort out many problems yourself.

Crystal Key

The key you need to get to Adze-Haakai is hidden in a secret passage NE of the lava. Solberg tells you that you should not take it until you have the Demonslayer. To get there you can use the Portal in the upper level, which can be reached from the secret room to the east of Solberg's bedroom north of the main hall. The portal transpots you to another room on the upper level. The trapdoor there leads you to the tunnels NE of the lava. The key is in the chest. If you go north from the chest, you can look into the scrying pool and see an image of Linda and Adze-Haakai.

The only way out of this area is via the portal which takes you to the entrance cavern.

Treasure

There is a passage outside the tower to the west. This leads to a cavern with a drake and three fire lizards. When they are dead you will find a ruby and a corpse which has an Ensnaring Wand.

In the north of of the tower is his bedroom. If you want you could steal a few coins and mundane items from the chest and cupboard.

Mage Spells

If you tell Solberg that you have killed Adze-Haakai he will reward you with about 55xp and will teach you some spells.

Secret Doors

In the NW corner of the library to the south is a button which opens a path to a hidden room in the SE of the tower. There you can find a ladder which takes you up to a spell tome which teaches Holy Scourge (Smite) L3.
In the north wall of Solberg's bedroom is a button which opens a path to a ladder leading to the portal on the upper level.
In the north wall of the E-W passage N of the lava fields in the NE (reached via portal above Solberg's bedroom) is a button which opens the way to a chest, a scrying pool and a further portal.
