Well, I've continued playing, trying to get past the fact that I don't enjoy the turn based combat just for the fact that this is amazing.
But, I've encountered a huge issue. I think I've done with the second area (done the mines, troll cave etc.), having found the scroll for the hut only after running around like a madman.
Went in, killed everything, talked with the lake, got the book but I can't seem to be able to find where to use it.
Is it in the next area and I am wasting time running around?
