I activated the following runes to complete the quest:
Taam
Talar
DreglaJust make sure only those 3 are activated when you talk to the mage and you should be good to go. Otherwise, you take roughly 12 million damage (Can be immuned).

I'm a warrior, Ritssyn! I'm a fury warrior. You're lucky I know how to read, much less have the patience to figure out magical runes. Why are you trusting me with this?

Description
Levia must have used these runes to aid her ritual. Even if she is as powerful as Modera says, she was a novice in demonic magic, so the runes must have helped stabilize the portal. I'll need you to find out what runes need to be activated to recreate her ritual. There are several books on runic magic in this room, which she no doubt studied for her ritual. Once you have activated the runes, I will complete the spell.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Acolyte Imperiled
Truthfully, the Council knows little of Agatha, but she is more than just your average succubus. She has many allies within the sayaad, and is known to command armies of imps that swarm and overwhelm her foes. To seek her out is folly, but Ritssyn Flamescowl repays his debts.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Following the Scent
You will have to continue through the portal without me, <class>. I have assisted you in locating your mage's whereabouts, so I consider my debt to Modera paid. However, I will lend you one of my felhounds to help track this mage down.
