Tsen-Ang (1507W 296S)
Tsen-Ang is the homeland of the Dark Elves. Feel the difference from the ordinary ones. Zan-Lan Lurin stands near the entrance. She will agree to join you. I advise you to take her, you may soon lose two allies.
Editor’s note: before entering Tsen-Ang, equip the Hand of Moloch amulet:
Conversation with Min Groad
When you talk to Min Groad, you can say that you are her person. She will tell you that they were given the order to kill Stennar. But Stennar died and passed something on to another survivor. Now they need to kill him:
We will also learn that the Blackrock clan was exiled to the Void – some otherworldly realm where Nasserdin banished Arronax. And now the dwarves are trying to create a certain Vendigroth device.
It turns out Arronax will soon emerge from the void. Incidentally, Stennar somehow managed to escape the void, meaning Arcanum has a chance to survive and avoid the Dark Elves’ influence. You can steal a note from Min Groad. The note is addressed to someone named Ka-Nua. It talks about a device and the city of Vendigroth.
A Maniac’s Harassment
When you leave Min Groad, a maniac will accost you. He’ll claim that Moloch’s men are after you. But you can talk him out of it, and you’ll also become a friend of Moloch’s Hand.
Incidentally, you can help the Ogres by killing the wizard who’s keeping them from his spell. When you leave the city, Virgil will leave you. He doesn’t offer any motivation.
If Volinger has joined you, he’ll also leave and ask you to go alone to his designated location as quickly as possible. We go to the meeting point, leave the reinforcements, and go down to the basement of the house. It turns out Volinger is also Moloch’s man. He’ll attack you here, joined by an ogre and a dwarf. Now we’ll report to Kintarra.
