Walkthrough
The upcoming plan
Exit the quarters and go left towards the Chronicum. There you will find Lexil Merrâyil and Yuslan. Talk to Lexil. Lexil will tell you that apparently Kurmai has broken into the storerooms and stolen some shadow steel, which he needs for finishing his starship. According to Lexil, the blueprints Kurmai used were very similar to the ones used for the beacon, and that may be a lead to the Numinos. The arcanist will give you a teleport scroll, which you may use to travel to the Powder Desert. From there, you must locate the workshop. It is to the west of Duneville, inside Old Dust Cave. Once you arrive there talk to Kurmai and he will inform you that the starship, or "Gertrude" as he calls it, is nearly finished. Only a few materials are missing. These can be found in the powder desert. Kurmai will also inform you that a teleport rune has been placed in the cave, and you will get a scroll, so don't worry about walking back to the airship.
Finding the materials
The copper alloys are located in the Old Starling Mine, which is just north of the Old Dust Cave. Anter the mine and follow the tunnels. The five parts are scattered on the floor near the machine at the end. They give off a small green glow so they shouldn't bee too hard to spot. The Pyrean Cube can be found in the Old Starling Workshop The entrance to the Old Starling Workshop is located on the beach with orcs and a ship. Inside the cave you will find a tall structure. Climb it, and you will find the Pyrean Cube.
The take-off
Once you have callected all the materials, return to Kurmai in the Old Dust Cave by using the teleport scroll given to you. When you are ready, speak to Tealor in the Starship. You will be told to wait for the final preparations of the journey. After waiting, Tealor will give you Narathzul's brooch, and the ship will take off. On board you can either go to sleep or talk to your companions, Jespar and Calia.
Journal Entries
- Initial
- Apparently the arcanists found a trace leading to the Numinos - that peculiar object that is missing for igniting the Beacon. I have to meet them in the Chronicum.
- After speaking to the arcanists
- According to Archmagister Merrâyil a starling called Kurmai recently burgled in a storage of Ark's Guardhouse - his motif: to get shadow steel for his airship which he wants to use to find the 'lost homeland' of the Starlings. For some reason the old Starling blueprints which Kurmai uses to build his airship resemble those of the Beacon. Does this mean that the Ancient Starlings also build the Beacon? Even if not - it seems as if they knew about the Cycle. Merrâyil wants me to help Kurmai with finishing the airship.
- After speaking with Kurmai
- I met the Starling Kurmai in his workshop in the Powder Desert. What he created with the help of his machines is impressive. The only things missing for finishing the airship "Getrude" are a smattering of alloys and a Pyrean crystal cube. Kurmai wants me to obtain these for him.
- After delivering the items to Kurmai
- I brought the missing components to Kurmai - Gertrude should be ready for departure shortly.
