Wanted spoilers or hints for Mekrath's quest....

Well, while clearing the serwers of the Unseeing Eye I ran into Mekrath from a secret entrace to his abode. Where is the imp he speaks of located? I searched the sewers as best I could and all the lower levels associated with the unseeing eye quest but no imp, unless I killed him unknowingly before I met Mekrath but then I would have found the mirror, so nope. Plus, how do I release Haer Dhalis from Mekrath's control to gain him as a party member?

Question: Who is better for rogue in a party (evil one at that): Haer Dhalis or Yoshimo?

Thanks for any help!

You could just kill Mekrath. That releases Haer'Dalis from domination. As for who's better, Yoshimo by a long shot.

haer dalis is not a rogue, he's a blade. not quite the same thing.
also haer dalis is quite useless in my opinion. he can't tank, he's too weak, his mage spells are like an afterthought and his bard song is average, and his lore ability is low. on the other hand, he's personality plus!
yoshimo is a pretty good rogue, he can set special traps which are quite good and his lockpicking and find traps skills are quite good.
what imp? i killed an imp when i first entered his lab. you free haerdalis by killing mekrath. check his body he has some good stuff. have you found the gem? search his bedroom and the adjoining rooms.

armisael, don't u have to go to work tomorrow??

Don't remind me. I'm sitting here drinking something that looks like either really flat beer or piss, but I think it's apple juice. I can't sleep properly unless I'm drunk, exhausted or lying somewhere that isn't hotter than hades.
I didn't like Haer'Dalis much. He kept calling me a hound. What's that supposed to mean? If he thought I was a prick, he should've just spoken up about it. I left him alone after he took his first dirt nap at the feet of a troll. 'Oblivion at last!'? Yeesh...

I guess I will stick with Yoshimo, he seems pretty cool, although I heard someone whisper about betrayal down the road as a possibility. I killed some of those little winged lightening thingies that you fight in the beginning of the game upon entering Mekrath's from the secret entrance from the sewers. No imp that I can remember. If I got a gem, I don't remember anything special. I do have a rogue's stone, that is about the best gem I have gotten so far. Mekrath says one of his imps has run off with a magical mirror and that he is probably in the sewer, and that the imp might have used the mirror to summon something so be forewarned, or something along those lines. No one remember anything about this?

Bah, fine. The imp's in the southeastern part of the sewers. It has an ogre or something with it. Easy pickings. Mekrath offers you a slave or somesuch in return, at which point I got fed up and killed him, but I'd guess the 'slave' is Haer'Dalis.

what's this about an imp? so mekrath gives u a subquest? didn't know that. i just killed the bugger. will have to try that out.

I see my orcish charm has worked its magic on you! Gah, I will have to go back there and look, thought I cleared out that section too. I doo remember some kobolds or something, don't think they were imps in the middle, circular section, of the sewers with a caster guy in a robe, but there was no mirror that I can recall. Does this imp guy spawn after you receive the quest?

kalrog just a hint, keep the rogue stone - don't sell it. you'll be glad you did.
