Conjur aspires to be a critical success.

Quick Walkthrough[edit]

  1. Talk to Conjur at Helnim's Zarfirbel Bay Company about much of a reader.
  2. Read Conjur's review.
  3. Let Conjur know what you think of his review.
  4. Deliver the review to Ewein Samantine, in the Ebon Tower palace library, Old Ebonheart.

Detailed Walkthrough[edit]

The Zafirbel Bay Company has its building nestled in the southern corner of Helnim, near the waterside. Inside, the Wood Elf, Conjur, is looking for somebody to deliver his book review to Old Ebonheart. Ask him first about much of a reader, and then book review. He will ask you to take a look.

Agree, and read Conjur's Book Review. Once done, ask him again about the book review. Conjur will ask for feedback, although is not too bothered by your opinion either way. At this point, he will request that you deliver the review to Ewein Samantine in the Ebon Tower's palace library, Old Ebonheart. If you agree to this, Conjur will also supply you with a copy of The Hope of the Redoran, a Blunt skill book.

The quickest way to Old Ebonheart is via ship from Helnim to Darvonis, and then Old Ebonheart itself - although the cost of a return journey will easily wipe out the gold portion of your reward. From there, make your way to the city's large castle, the Ebon Tower, and seek out the Palace building. The entrance to the library is just inside the entrance of the palace, and the Ebonheart Bellman's editor, Ewein, can be found within.

Hand the review to Ewein for your payment, and to complete the quest. Ewein will note with trepidation that he had never expected Conjur to write the reviews himself, and will consider it not quite what he is looking for. If you (optionally) return to Conjur however, he does not seem too bothered.

Notes[edit]

  • Conjur's initial dialogue changes slightly depending on if your intelligence is 50+, in which case he will treat you with a little less arrogance.
  • If you speak to Conjur again after quest completion, he will supply you with another copy of his review.
