    I have the problem with Lady Thorncombe and Onix.

    When I speak with the lady, she did not say that she is addicted and I can not tell this to Onix.

    When I speak with the lady she does not answer me, I need ask her again and again.

    My PC has Wisdom 16.

    Could somebody give me a clue what to do?

    Thanks

    Speak to one of the Mages-in-Training in the mage training room. They will tell you that she is addicted to sensory stones. Then confront the Lady Thorncombe, who will deny any such thing. Then speak to Onyx. Finally go back and speak to the lady again.

    I already spoke with one of these Mages-in-Training. He told something like "Lady Thorncombe spends plenty of time in sensorium, may be too much", no word "addicted".

    May be I need to sppek with one specific mage?

    Strange, it should work if only one of the mages have told you she is addicted to sensory stones.

    Have you asked the lady to train you as a mage?

    No. There is not option to ask that.

    ---------- Added 6 hours, 6 minutes and 5 seconds later... ----------

    I loaded old save before I entered Sensates' HQ. I spoke with Onyx, then with one of the student-mag, then with Lady T. The lady said "no" on my question about teaching. But when then I spoke with Onyx nothing happened. All options in dialog with Onyx are the same as first time.

    I had a little issue with this. It seems that after you speak to a mage-in-training, you must then go to Lady Thorncombe and address her by her name. Then keep on the line of questioning about her being a mage trainer. Once you deviate from that line of questioning, you lose the conversation option for good. Eventually TNO will ask her about being addicted.

    Some of the conversation options in this game are less than intuitive. Lady Thorncombe doesn't really do much for you, except sell a few spells that you can get in other places anyway. Of course, you miss out on like 10k exp if you can't get her to return, but at least it's not a game breaker or anything.
