I've
chosen to right the walkthrough for Lorelei from the perspective of
entering through the West Gate, so directions will be given as if you
started there.
Just
north of the West Gate is Lewis's Store. Lewis sells horses for
600 coins. The horses themselves are located just south of the
gate.
South
of the horses is a small park or garden. Start looking here for
Sandra, if you didn't already find her in Shamirik. She's wearing
a brown and yellow dress, and has red hair, if that helps you to locate
her. I most often find her in the park itself, but she could be
anywhere outside in Lorelei.
East
of the garden is an Anama temple. You can't enter the temple
without Anama rings, either real ones from joining the Anama church, or
fake ones, which can be bought here in Lorelei. Either way,
you'll want to get into the church, as this is where you'll find Mundt,
the object of the quest from Mother Melamed of Kuper.
At
the end of the street running north/south just east of the Anama temple
is a pair of doors leading to the southwest section of the inner wall.
The
next building to the east is the inn. It's run by
Winterhouse. Ask him if he's heard any interesting rumors and
he'll tell you he has, and that he'll give it to you for 50
coins. Pay him the coins and take note of what he says.
He'll tell you to go talk to Randall, the item salesman, so when you
get to Randall remember to ask him about the rumor.
The
next building to the east, on the other side of the South Gate are two
empty shops. Across the street to the east from these shops is a
block of apartments. The two western ones aren't that important,
but the one to the west is very important. Entering the apartment
you'll notice the sun symbol of Avernum. Go to the southeast
corner of the room and look for the hidden passage. Once you're
in the passage go down to the bloodstains on the floor and through
another secret door into a concealed room. The man sitting here
is Dwaine, and he has quite a bit of information for you.
Once
you're done with Dwaine exit his apartment and go through the doors to
the west. This takes you into the southeast section of the inner
wall.
Go
back into town and check out the building just to the north of Dwaine's
apartment. The westernmost of these two shops is the training
center for Lorelei, which is run by Yukiko.
Next door to Yukiko is Carson. Carson sells weapons, but more importantly, he provides training in the Barter skill.
Across
the street to the west from these shops is the Internal Affairs office,
which is run by Lyle. Lyle is the job dispatcher, and he'll also
sell you Hawke's Manse, in the northwest corner of town, for 8000
coins. Once you've talked to Randall about the rumor from
Winterhouse he'll send you to talk to Lyle. Lyle in turn will
tell you you need to speak to Foxfire, who wanders the smaller towns in
Midori Province. Make sure to buy Foxfire's secret when you see
her, because it might take a while to find her again.
The
building just to the north of the East Gate are two more apartments,
and just north of that is the University. Unfortunately the
University is not providing any teaching right now, but Carlos, the
teacher there will sell some alchemical recipes.
Just
to the north of the university is Gertrude's Shop. Gertrude is
the armorsmith for Lorelei, and she has some pretty decent items.
The
road next to the armorsmith ends in the doors which lead to the
northeastern section of the inner wall. This section is worthy of
note because it contains a cell with a Giant in it. The Giant
isn't hostile, but it doesn't want to talk to you either.
The
building just across from the armorsmith is where the residents of
Lorelei apparently keep their cows. Feel free to go commune with
them for a while. I sometimes let them out of their pen just
because I think it's funny to see a couple cows wandering around the
town. I once found one all the way over by the horses after doing
that.
Just
to the west of the North Gate is the mayor's office. The mayor in
Lorelei is Bruette, and she's pretty useless. She'll give you a
quest to find a way into Blackcrag Fortress, but she isn't doing
anything to deal with the Giants, since she doesn't want to interfere
with what the Empress may have planned.
The roadway just west of the mayor's office ends in the doors leading to the northwest section of the inner wall.
Next
to the mayor's office is the coutryard to Hawke's Manse, and Hawke's
Manse itself. If you bought it from Lyle you can enter and
explore a bit if you want. There's a walkthrough under the Midori
section for Hawke's Manse.
To
the south of Hawke's Manse, against the western wall is Kendra's
shop. This is who you're supposed to deliver the package from
Irvine to. Once you've delivered the package Kendra will let you
enter the Thieves Guild. Kenra also sells gloves.
The
Thieves Guild entrance is in the northwest corner of Kendra's
shop. Sitting in the middle of the room is Geoffrey. He'll
do many things for you, but they all come with a fairly hefty
price. All in all, Lorelei is probably one of the most expensive
cities you'll visit. For 2500 coins he'll sell you a set of fake
Anama rings, for 3000 coins he'll give you permission to pass through a
secret passage to Blackcrag Fortress, and for, I believe, 1000 coins
he'll tell you where you can find treasure all through Valorim.
He also sells a few items, which you might want to take a look at.
Just
west of Kendra's shop is Randall's shop. Remember to ask him
about the rumor you got from Winterhouse, and he'll send you to talk to
Lyle in Internal Affairs. Randall sells a variety of items, which
are definitely worth looking at, including a Blessed Longsword.
South
from Randall's shop is someone's house. There's some halfway
decent items scattered around, which you might want to pick up.
Just
south of that house is the Lorelei Library. The library is run by
Yessenia, who sells maps of Midori and identifies items. Yessenia will
tell you about a book in the northwest corner of the library once
you've completed the Troglodyte/Giant quest. This book teaches Return
Life Lv.3.
East of the library is the food shop, which is run by Ligaya. All she sells is meat...birds, in particular.
The
last remaining block is the barracks for Lorelei. In the
southeast corner of the barracks block is Commander Bruskrud's
office. You'll get two quests from her. First she'll ask
you to recover some soldier's possessions which the Giants have kept,
and then, if you ask her if there's any other quests, she'll ask you to
free some prisoners from the Giant's Cave. Now that you
have your quest, it's time to head off to the Giant's Caves, which are
to the southeast of Lorelei. Just hug the mountains and you can't
miss them.
