Tips and Misc
- Jurin'ildren's library is one of the few intact remaining buildings in Myth Drannor – although with a horde of fire elementals trashing the place, it won't be intact much longer without your intervention.
- This quest is very linear, with only a single side area. First, enter the Lower Library and fight a handful of creatures from the Elemental Plane of Fire, including an orange-named Salamander.
- Once you've done this, you immediately do it another two times (including, apparently, killing the exact same Salamander.)
- After clearing the second zone (the Sorting Room), you can head down a side path and deal with the Fire Giant Thulkaan, either by succeeding on a Diplomacy, Spellcraft or Haggle skill check, or by killing him. You get two chests for talking the Giant down or one for killing him. Note: On Legendary Reaper, 88 Diplomacy failed and 95 Diplomacy succeeded.
- Finally, head into the Upper Library and face Nepri the Efreet. Once Nepri reaches half health he'll flee into a portal to the Elemental Plane of Fire, prompting you to chase him there and finish the job.
