Clearing neutral creatures.

I think it would be a good idea to develop the guild of mages to at least the second level. I say this because, without Hafiz, the losses among the gremlins could be significant. And also, get a wizard as soon as possible. Another option is to take Nazir. He already has 30 mana and a fireball at the beginning, which is a good option for a rush. And if there are also mages here, it's even better.
