- Go to Rimuldar
- Check Up the Dwarves in Cave of the Dwarves
- Seek Advice in the Faerie Village
- Gather Ingredients and Return to the Faeries
- Deliver the Medicine and Return to the Warlock
Go to Rimuldar
To get the Magic Key, you will first need to go to Rimuldar, located east of the map. Upon entering the town, a cutscene will play in which the Captain of the Guard will fall ill from sickness. You will need to seek the help of a Warlock of Doorlocks in hope of helping cure the Captain.
The Warlock will be located at the northwest part of the town. The Warlock will be impressed by your possession of the Thief's Key. He will agree to help you cure the Captain if you also help him in delivering the cure to his Dwarven friends.
Check Up the Dwarves in Cave of the Dwarves
Check up on the Dwarven friends of the Warlock in the Cave of the Dwarves, located near the south of Rimuldar. This cave is a dungeon where you will face monsters and utilize your Thief's Key in opening red doors.
You will find the ailing dwarf in a bed in Basement 3 of the cave. Conversing with him will lead you to diagnose that his ailment is the same one as the Captain of the Guard.
Seek Advice in the Faerie Village
Go to the Faerie Village, located west of the map, to seek medical advice for the Captain of the Guard and the Dwarven Craftsman. You will meet faeries that will be initially unwelcoming to humans but will entertain you after your interaction with them in the Craggy Cave.
They will ask you to gather ingredients for the medicine and rest in their inn before you go forth on your journey. Which will show you a dream sequence of Princess Gwaelin's nightmarish state.

Gather Ingredients and Return to the Faeries
Gather ingredients for the medicine in the Fields of Flowers located near the south of the Faerie Village. After gathering the needed ingredients, make your way back to the Faerie Village.
Upon arrival, the village will be attacked by a Knight and Dark Skeletons. Use your multiple target spells like Sizz to deal with these enemies. After defeating the invaders, you will hand the flowers to the faeries and let them concoct the cure: sunup syrup.
