The Mage's Treasure
I have traded with him, stolen from his stump and killed/looted him. None of these actions resulted in obtaining the quest The Mage's Treasure as mentioned in the "Involvement" part of this article. Can anyone else confirm? I haven't found any connection between the Mad Hermit and that quest yet. Ashes2flames
Re: The Quest
I had the quest before talking to him by seeing the Great Oak first. Perhaps you should try that instead?
