The Jewel of Odea

The Jewel of Odea is a major quest line near the start of the Sabre of Meitor campaign. Occurring in Rausten and Arman City, the Heroes of Time are tasked with stealing the priceless Jewel of Odea from Arman Castle by Nekro Sander. He claims to be able to stop the Trident Association from gaining more power through a magical ritual that requires star metal, a valuable ore that the Jewel of Odea is made from.

Plot
After the battle with Drago Duneswal, the heroes encounter Doris Strongheal, who offers them a chance to heal at her temple. Arriving in Rausten, the Heroes of Time visit various houses in search of work. They first visit the Magic College, where Seth Qualls is kept behind by Athos Blackpelt to learn the Ray of Frost spell.

Arriving at a strange building, the rest are greeted by Nekro Sander. He offers them the chance to stop the Trident rising through a magical ritual. To prove his worth, Nekro separates the body and soul of Count Benjen III. Nekro Sander teleports the Heroes of Time to the house of his brother Sage Mancer in Arman City. After making their way through the town (during which Zenaxus reduces some peasants to a red paste) they are escorted into the castle by Letra Musca, head of the Armanian Army.

However Zenaxus encounters his Thicket leader, Bramble the Brutal, who orders everyone under house arrest under suspicion. Zenaxus pleads with his boss, and Bramble allows Azrael to search the castle under escort after a letter is delivered promising that the Jewel would be stolen that night.

Simultaneously trying to find, steal and hide the Jewel, Azrael tricks the guards into showing him the Jewel Room, only to find it empty. Panicking, the guards blame Azrael after Bramble shows up. Bramble murders the guards and explains that the jewel had been hidden to prevent theft. Upon showing Azrael the Jewel's true location, it is also discovered missing. In his anger, Bramble slays two more guards.

Azrael notices a figure running in the shadows. Chasing the figure into the night, the Jewel of Odea is seen catapulted beyond the castle walls by the figure who is promptly captured and shown to be Harry. After a night of torture, Harry claims to have been possessed by Trident General Luther Render. Spending the morning aiding in the hunt for the jewel, they are initially unsuccessful and are forced to return to Rausten due to the time constraints on the teleport gem.

Upon return to Nekro's house, Doris produces the Jewel of Odea from under her robes, having found it during the search. Nekro performs the ritual and the party decided head back to the Magic College to pick up Seth...
