The Witch's Apprentice quest
start when you talk to Grizelda
the Hag, who can be found in some old
ruins out in the middle of the woods far south of Yew. Grizelda seems
to have a problem keeping her apprentices alive, mainly because of a certain
Imp named Zeefzorpul. Therefore she will ask you to go look for her last
apprentice, who has gone missing.
 To find
the apprentice you will have to go to the road west of the ruins and follow
it north towards the cemetery in Yew. Somewhere along the road you will
come across the body of the apprentice and notice an Imp stealing a piece
of paper from the corpse. Examine the corpse to find out that it is the
missing apprentice and then return to Grizelda with the bad news.
Grizelda, now being an apprentice short, asks you to track down the Imp
and get the recipe it stole from the apprentice back. The Imp, who is
named Zeefzorpul,
is a notorious troublemaker and very good at hiding when he's in trouble,
but Grizelda is sure that most other Imps will be able to tell you where
he is, although you might have to beat it out of them.
You should then go find some Imps
and start killing them, any Imps will do. After you've killed a few, one
of them will talk to you and give you a map leading to Zeefzorpul's hideout
and a magic flute with the power to summon him. Look at the map and see
if you can figure out which location it points to, if you can't then try
looking at this page.
Now go to the location the map shows and play the flute, this should
make Zeefzorpul appear. He wont be too happy to see you of course, but
he ends up giving you Grizelda's recipe anyway and then he steals the
flute from you, so you can't disturb him again. You can then return to
Grizelda and report your success.
Grizelda isn't going to give you a reward just yet though, you will first
have to complete the original apprentices job, which was to collect the
items required for the recipe. The recipe will list three random items
from the following list that you will need to find:
If one of the items is Captain Blackheart's Whiskey, you will need to
go to The
Pirate's Plunder Tavern in Buccaneer's Den and talk to Captain
Blackheart himself. The captain is not going to give just anybody
a taste of his whiskey though, so you will have to prove yourself to him.
First you will need to look like a pirate, that is easily done by wearing
a Tricorne Hat. Next you will have to show that you can hold your liquor,
so you will have to drink about 5 or more pitchers of alcohol and then
talk to the captain again. Once he is convinced you are a proper pirate
he will offer you some of his rare whiskey.
Once you have found all three items and brought them back to Grizelda,
she will reward you with a bag containing about 2000 Gold Pieces, 30 of
each Reagent, A Magic Item, A Treasure Map, A Cauldron and A Bottle of
Magic Moonfire Brew. If one of the ingredients on the recipe was Captain
Blackheart's Whiskey, she will also give you a bottle of Grizelda's Extra
Strength Hangover Cure.
