New threat.

The last quest on the surface killed me. After getting all the hints, I have no idea where to find what I'm looking for... The accessible location doesn't work – I've thoroughly searched everywhere. Attempts to go to other locations are blocked by invincible elves...
Maybe I'm missing something? Then – especially for the slow-witted – maybe you should make the hint more specific? And, at the very least, hint that you should experiment with the mentor regarding Aschi's patronage (if, of course, you need to dig)...
And once you think about the return trip, it becomes even more depressing. They could have at least added a fort near the second entrance to the dungeon – the "Portal" spell is wasted. I was looking for it for 10 months...
