[edit] Background
Return to Hook Coast is a gold quest that becomes available from The Guildmaster, immediately after the quest: Gateway to Hook Coast. Before being abducted by two minions, your mother found a way of disabling the barrier, at the entrance of the ruined abbey at Hook Coast, that stands between you and the "key" - a relic that is needed to claim the Sword of Aeons. She found a copy of Arban's Thaumaturgica, a book that describes forgotten ways of erecting and disabling force fields in Hook Coast. However, it is written in an archaic language that you don't understand. The Guildmaster, however, does.
[edit] Walkthrough
[edit] Taking the Quest
Taking this quest comes with a stipulation: you'll have to "forsake" all other quests its expense, as it is much too important. This is somewhat misleading. The quests that you have "forsaken" will become available again after you battle Jack of Blades. There will be some tough fights ahead, so consider completing any unfinished quest, so as to make your character as powerful as possible beforehand. Otherwise, accept the quest. After accepting the quest, the Guildmaster will tell you to head back to Hook Coast, where once you are in the presence of the barrier he will read out the correct passage in the book over you guild seal for disabling barriers.
[edit] Disabling the Barrier
Once in Hook Coast, you will be confronted by a guard who tells you that the village has been evacuated, as per the Guildmaster's request.
[edit] Battling Maze
Maze can be a tough foe. You will have to engage him multiple times. After a few hits he teleports away to a new location in the area. At the beginning of each engagement he puts up a shield and can't be damaged. Once the shield goes down, then he's fair game. He does a lot of damage with his Enflame, and he also has a projectile spell.
