It is also generally considered the least satisfying way, since you are kneeling to the corrupted. The... much more satisfying way is to simply flip your finger to the powers that be and happily cast away, knocking some sense into the enforcers that fail to see the folly in trying to bridle your right to cast where you want to and when you want to. You get loot, experience, plenty of high-level scrolls, and that warm fuzzy feeling a person gets when he/she knows that the world is less one corrupt being. This is by no means an easy path, but if you persevere, the Cowled Wizards will eventually get the message that perhaps meddling with you is strictly not in their best interests and continued longevity. Cheers.

That's the rub though, Dundee. Corniel doesn't offer a dialog option to pay him. Is this a bug, or do I need to look around and complete something else first?
