When you look for the dwarven council member- you also open up the stone axe quest. When I was looking for the axe, I talked with the mayor, and - as I guess everybody knows- he asks for some mead.
Now, I solved the quest - by accident actually - as I went down the tunnels and killed the mage and recovered the axe.
As you know there are some walkthroughs on the net, and in one of them it actually says that if you get the mayor drunk, he tells you that the axe is in the tunnels.
As I have looked in nearly all the inns and havent found any mead, I wonder if this walkthrough may be true.
Does anyone have any idea about this ? Can you actually find mead in the game?
