What to do
Description
There seems to be a problem student at the academy. I have heard reports that a student, Tytalor Goldenblade, is stirring up trouble in Sunstrider Isle. I'd go myself but I have my hands full running practice here already. Could you go check on him and... educate him of his misgivings?

You there! I've heard whispers of your so-called "heroics," but I'm convinced they must be false. For if they were true, it would mean you would have achieved more than I, Tytalor Goldenblade--the finest, smartest, and most handsome mage at this academy.
