Completed the quest "Rudal's Favor"

Dialogs:

NPC:/nope That young Rudal fellow is behind this, isn't he? He's been hounding me about Serpentis since the day he got here.

NPC:/talk I don't know how he convinced you to help him, but I promise you Serpentis isn't the answer to his problems.

NPC:/contend If you really want to help, why don't you go speak with Hermas in Nuimari? He's an expert on ancient relics and magical artifacts. If there's anything that'll cure Rudal's beloved, he'd probably know about it.

Stage summary:

Report to Archeologist Hermas in Nuimari.

Dialogs:

NPC:/dialogue An object capable of lifting any curse?

NPC:/quarrel Well, that's quite a tricky one. There's all sorts of stories about magical swords and holy grails, but I wouldn't exactly call them reliable.

NPC:/contend But I have recently stumbled across a rather fascinating tale that might just fit your description.

NPC:/talk In Solzreed they tell the legend of King Peredin, a young man who won his kingdom by completing a deadly magical labyrinth.

NPC:/handover They say Peredin only survived because of a magic ring known as the "Kidella Ring." Here, I think I have the manuscript with me somewhere. If you get it bound, you could read the story for yourself!
