    [​IMG] Is the valgar tax notice worth anything?

    The book on how to make a GOLEM(found it in the sphere)?

    the book i found in the cabin of valgar in the umar hills?

    letters from mazzy or the shadow thieves?

    any leftover pieces of coal from the sphere?

    The mirror you got back from the imp to the wizard you eventually killed in the sewers?

    anything happens at nalia's dad funeral? should i go at night or day?

    IIRC:

    -valygar´s tax note: when you have it you can go to the government building to ask one of the officials and he will tell you that Valygar´s house is in Umar Hills; otherwise useless

    -the golem guide: gives you a *HINT* what to do with the gloem arm and head - otherwise useless

    -letters from Mazzy & shadow thieves - give you some background information on the plot - otherwise useless

    -the fourth piece of coal, I think it´s there in case you overlook one - otherwise useless

    -mirror: you need it to complete the wizard´s quest and to get the xp (better way: kill that scum and you´ll get some nice wands and a robe of fire protection :D ) - otherwise useless

    I don´t remember the book in Valygar´s cabin and about Nalia´s dad´s funeral.

    I'm pretty sure that the funeral is just part of the Nalia quest, it just sets the scene for what happens next to Nalia. Of course, that means you still have to go or you won't get to complete Nalia's quest.

    Also, I'm pretty sure the funeral will happen during the day. It would be a bit over the top spooky to bury someone at night!

    What about the bit of red cloth you find in the graveyard. Has it a value after you use it to identify "the man in red"?

    With many of these things, they have little value after you have used them in a particular quest. Howvever, to play safe the best things to do is store them away when you are not sure. Once you get a stronghold (or failing that use a quiet room in a pub) find a table, drawer, trunk or whatever, click on it. Two boxes open at the bottom of the screen, the one on the left shows the contents of the box. The one on the right is your inventory. Click on an item and it will be transfered for one to the other. You can leave the items there in complete safety to be collected later if neccesary. (Make a note of where you left them though, in case you forget)

    Another probably completely obvious to everyone (but you never know) tip from Slappy.

    Nalia's father's funeral is not limited to the daytime. It happened at night for me.

    "This might seem a little silly but at least in the daytime you can see what's coming...tee hee..."

    [​IMG] Nalia's father's funeral starts the Nalia kidnapping quests. You can avoid it by killing Isaea Roenall at the funeral but you might as well let him kidnap her as you get some exp for rescuing her and it really isn't that hard to do.

    With the red piece of cloth you need to find the guy who wears clothes of the same color. There is a post from a while a go called "the man in red" or something like that which will indicate where the guy is. A little tip is to talk to Seth the gravekeeper in the graveyard. He's the guy in the upper right corner (looks like a begger), otherwise the man in red won't be there when you go looking for him.
