When you talk to Sven to trigger the quest, he will tell you that he discovered one of his mother’s letters addressed to a man named Phaesus. He wants you to investigate the letter and report back to him. What makes the quest so tricky to complete is that you don’t get any guidance on where to go next.

After getting the letter from the young monarch Sven, head to the Forbidden Magick Research Lab located in the Bakbattahl region. You need to overhear a conversation to proceed with the quest.

It’s a hostile zone, but you can sneak in by going through the door past the Dye Stores. Head across the bridge, and you can enter the lab through the door.

Once you’re in, go to the opposite side of the large dead dragon. You’ll overhear two people talking about a missive from Vermund. After the conversation plays out, go inside the Laboratorium – Workshop #2 and pick up the Letter to Lord Phaesus on the table.

Now, simply go back to Vernworth Castle and hand the letter over to Sven to complete the quest.
