I think logistical information would be helpful.  Things like, how can we better track down the evil and around how much time do we have?

good questions

[ZBridges]

Here's some suggestions:

1.  How much time do I have to stop the evil?
2.  Where exactly is the evil?
3.  Am I currently capable of stopping the evil, or do I need more power?
4.  What is the name of the primary person or thing causing the evil?
5.  Can you speak to me through the blade?

Hmm. We should visit a library or something to learn more about languages.

I feel like there may be more to the blade.  Is it possible that the arcanist missed something?

[Devastator]

No obvious or particularly excellent method of determining what language was written on the sign comes to you, so you decide to go with a brute-force method.  You begin canvassing the foreign quarter looking for similar characters.. you know most of the official embassys have some words in the local languages carved on their gates.  This ends up paying off fairly quickly.  The laungage is that of Mzulft, the most distant and southernmost of the three nations across the sea.  At least the three that you've heard of.

It's not impossible.

[ZBridges]

Hmm.  If we're ever flush with coin again, it might be worth getting a second opinion.  The evil is spreading, but it appears to be fairly far away at the moment.  That may be very good or very inconvenient for us.

Engage in magic self study.
