The player must then fight their way through a snowy wilderness to find the small town of Steelight. However, once there, it is no simple matter getting a hold of the stone necessary to defeat the Shadow Mage. The current Duke of Steelight's health is rapidly ailing, and his mother fears for the continuity of their bloodline. She asks the player to find her son's illegitimate heir, whom she exiled several years before, in exchange for the stone to save the Archmage of Silverfall's child. With little choice but to accept, the player must find their way through an icy labyrinth inhabited by 'ice fairies', to find the child's mother. Once the child's mother is located, she tells the player that her son has been kidnapped by the frozen fey, and the player must then track him down.
