Fernando's Business
The overseas merchant Fernando in the Upper Quarter of Khorinis asks the hero for a report on the state of the mines in the Valley of Mines. He promises a reward in return. When the hero returns from the Valley of Mines in Chapter 3 and reports that the mines are nearly exhausted, Fernando is devastated but honors his deal. Fire Mages receive a Blank Runestone, while militia soldiers and mercenaries receive a Ring of Vitality. Note: This quest is unavailable if "The Bandit's Arms Dealer" was completed in Chapter 1, as Fernando is then already imprisoned.
Rewards
Fire Mage: 1 Blank Runestone. Militia/Mercenary: 1 Ring of Vitality.
Walkthrough
2. Travel to the Valley of Mines and complete your business there (this happens naturally through the main story).
3. Return to Khorinis in Chapter 3 and speak to Fernando again. Report that the mines are exhausted.
4. Receive 150 XP and your reward: a Blank Runestone (Fire Mage) or a Ring of Vitality (Militia/Mercenary).
5. **Important:** Do not turn Fernando in to the militia before Chapter 3 if you want both this quest and "The Bandit's Arms Dealer".
