Gothic/Aid of the Magicians of Fire

You get this quest from Saturas as a subquest prior to Banishment from the Old Camp, so you actually can only get this quest late into the game, and you may only have access to it if you belong to the New Camp. For reasons related to this, talk to Mordrag in the bar about being a courier for the magicians.

With all five Focus Stones and the Almanac, Saturas is prepared to blow the ore mound and destroy the ore mound, but he needs the help of the Magicians of Fire to recruit the necessary twelve. You are asked to go to the Old Camp and try and get the ears of the Fire Magicians; Saturas gives you a rune that will teleport the user to his chamber, for Corristo.

Before you leave the Old Camp, you can stop by Cronos and he can give you a letter for the Magicians of Fire. He will also give you a necklace that indicates you are a courier for the Magicians. When you join the New Camp, it is also possible to pick up this necklace then, which will allow you access to the Magicians of Fire normally. You can, of course, always ask Mordrag to "take you to the New Camp" (Thorus's Quest) and kill him in route for his necklace at an earlier point, but I don't recommend it.

In any case, this quest is padded with journal entries that involve learning more about the collapse of the Old Mine, the securing of the Old Camp's gates, the murdering of the Magicians of Fire, and how Gomez plans to raid the Free Mine. You will learn about these topics from Milton and Diego, respectively watching the North and South gates of the Old Camp.

When you report back to Saturas, the quest ends with a completion, even though you've done nothing.

Additionally, with the information you learn from Diego - initiating The Meeting - you can tell Lester about the murder of the Magicians of Fire.
