    I have this mask , from windspear hills.

    I have completed the quest , but there is a journal entry in my book , saying , found the mask put it together , just need to find out what it does.

    But I have already discovered the secret area , I think , you get the sword and helmet there.

    What's up with this ???

    One other thing , is it possible to let Mook not get killed.

    When you got the mask you've already put the pieces together. The journal was from the bitch Samia who wanted yo uto get the mask but then tried to kill you. So there's nothing to do with the mask anymore. But it's still useful. The mask can be worn by every class, also the mage who normally can't wear helmets and the mask gives protection against critical hits so my mages still uses it.

    I never tried to let Mook stay alive. I don't think it's possible but maybe you can try to give him protection from normal missiles, magic missiles, stoneskin etc. before talking to him... don't think it works but you'll never know. Maybe you should give it a try.

    Yep, journal entries stay put until the quest has been fully completed. In this case it is not enough to just find the area, you need to retrive the items and have a 'little chat' with Samia afterwards. If you do all that the journal entry should move to the 'completed quests' section.

    As to Mook, good idea about casting protection on her before talking, but it looks like a scripted game event for her to die. You don't get to control anything while the scene plays out so you're pretty much helpless.

    It seems I have done all of that , got the items , had the chat with samalia and I think i killed the Fire elemental. But the entry is still there, must be a bug or something . Cool thanks for the help guys / girls (one never knows on these boards , better to be politically , no that's not right sexually correct is more like it.)

    As for Mook , I think the spell used against her was Disentegrate - don't know if the is a protection I can put on her to save her against that.

    No I thought it's no desintegration, if I remember well, Mthe vampira had a dagger or something and he stings Mook, you can try protection from wepons, a globe and some other protections but indeed I think, Mook will die whatever you try.

    I'm pretty sure there isn't any way to keep Mook alive. It's part of the storyline for her to get killed.

    Just do it the Evil way: kill her and get the package for our Mistress Bodhi, as she requested. So we can all stay around a litte longer and don't have to worry about wooden stakes and burning Holy Water from those pesky shadow thieves when we're at rest in our catacombs! Saving the life of a little mortal tool...... Bah, so 'good' it makes me puke....
