Finished the game as all classes. Looking back I still have some unanswered questions.

- The runic stone outside the library. It only glows for the sorceress, and the glowing rune looks like the rune for lightning bolt. Could I have leveled up the lightning bolt spell and break the stone with it or something?

- The chest in Aurvandel's study. As a rogue, I tried opening it with the strange tool and was eaten for my trouble. Could I have gotten anything out of it?

- Was there a way to traverse the swamp for a non-warrior class?

- Was there anything to do with the soldier corpse that appears outside Thrivaldi's cave? I tried using the runic stick on it to no avail. Same goes for the transvestite corpse in Svartalfheim.

- Anything to do with the medals from the cave of bones?

- Why can the rogue purchase the magic staff from Aurvandel? I couldn't find a use to it for the life of me.

Thanks!

Don't know, never tried that. I doubt it though.

Nope. There's really no reason for a sorceress or rogue to fight the monster in the swamp anyway. Nor do they have any use for the battle axe.

- Was there anything to do with the soldier corpse that appears outside Thrivaldi's cave? I tried using the runic stick on it to no avail. Same goes for the transvestite corpse in Svartalfheim.

Beats me. Probably just for bragging rights.

- Why can the rogue purchase the magic staff from Aurvandel? I couldn't find a use to it for the life of me.

I think it's something you can trade to Eitri, for the runic stick, but I've never tried it myself.

×Yes, in fact that's where he keeps the right eye of Thiassi. However, you got eaten because... "Ah, ah, ah! Didn't say the magic word!"; which you'll only find out if you get your fast talk skill up to around 50 or so and talk to him about the eye while he's at the tavern. After you say the word to the chest, then you can pick it open.

Thanks! Also, DOH! I forgot all about it. I noticed the signposting, told myself to come back and talk to him when I have high fast talk, then forgot about the whole thing

Oh, one other question: what's the deal with Lithrasir's cooking herbs? Who needs them?

But it makes your Varg-food taste less like Varg

Thanks!

It is really useful to have a blunt weapon when fighting certain creatures. I used it A LOT.
