Alternative lvl 190 Sage Rune quest...

I have no words... So I was doing Tradonna and Niserine for Alfirin, and aside from coming across the mine worker (shop) on the third floor of Midgaard silver mines that was selling racoon traps, I also came across apparently a sage quest. So I figured I'd try it out and this was what happened...

( WTF-ness to follow )

Anyway the second Rune of Air is on Samael, so Tsuzuki won't have to go through Lair of the Blue Dragon for it (though at 220 we can go through there for the eq I guess). =_=

EDIT - And also, current sage debuff stats:

Spell: 'tanglefoot' modifies armor class by 200 for 77 hours.
Spell: 'faerie fire' modifies armor class by 206 for 30 hours.
Spell: 'curse' modifies save vs spell by 25 for 39 hours.
Spell: 'curse' modifies hit roll by -31 for 39 hours.
Spell: 'venom' modifies armor class by 77 for 3 hours.
Spell: 'venom' modifies save vs spell by 25 for 3 hours.
Spell: 'venom' modifies strength by -5 for 3 hours.

Also - energy web looks like it's a mass debuff + stun, but it causes the mobs to aggro unlike the bard spells

EDIT2 - Hey do you remember the mini-quest to get the key into Jyneth Tower?
