The Missing Magisters Divinity: Original Sin 2 Quest
Group: Chapter 4 - Mastering the Source
Starting Map: Reaper's Coast
You can start this quest in several ways, for example by talking to Magister Carver or Stewart.
We have learned that the Magisters are investigating several disappearances from their ranks that have occurred around Driftwood. They suspect foul play, and are hunting for a fugitive. Their top suspect is a tinkerer - a Sourcerer named Higba. It might be worthwhile to conduct our own investigation...
