He called upon forces he could not control and died. He fulfilled all her wishes, and she took advantage of his might. V: But the end differs, for a wicked woman she was. All changed when a woman entered his life. Vaska: A powerful sorcerer once lived in the swamp, an apprentice his only companion. Geralt: Kalkstein, an alchemist, claims you know about the mage from the tower and the guard. Why after five years of playing am I still finding new stuff in the game? I know the answer to that one, because it's a bloody quality product.Ĭlick to expand.Here's the conversation, copied and pasted by opening the conversation file in Djinni: Could the two of them have been lovers, and caused the old mages dowfall? Is he Alzur or one of the mages apprentices? Was Vaska Alzurs lover who caused his damnation? Her Sephirot and bitterness seems to hint at this.

Eventually parting at Meliteles shrine, I meet him again at his charming domicile and question him thoroughly on the Mages tower, whereupon he reveals a wealth of knowledge that does not seem to be covered in his copy of 'Ain Soph Aur'. So I do Gramps grand tour around the swamp, stopping at the homes of the rich and fantastical, during which he displays a damn lot of knowledge for a simple old cannibal. Now it seems that Gramps has an almost intimate knowledge of the tower (it's actually the 'I hate droughts' brickmaker who advises me to see him, always thought there was more to that comment) and its defenses and Vaska advises me to ask him, refusing to divulge her knowledge before he does. Okay i'm having a tootle through the Witcher 1 again, because.hell why not it's fucking gorgeous, anyway on looking for information on the Swamp tower I head out to the swamp first instead of acquiring the grimoires through old Golan. What's the deal with Gramps and Vaska (SPOILERS)
