Erana looks a lot like Genesta, a Faerie that Hero once knew...

Wait. What? Where is this in QFG2?

Yes, when you enter W.I.T. as a magic user, there are a bunch of portraits on the walls. The first one on the right side (the blonde woman) is Erana. Looking at the portraits reveals various messages about the graduates.

Ah, that explains it. I assume this is only available as a magic user? Because I never saw this building. And I just looked on the QFG2 maze... I mean, map... and I was definitely in that area in my play through.

As a Paladin this never opened up for me.

(How rude...)

Just about every alchemist, apothecary, and pharmacist (even Freddy Pharkas) used to use a mortar and pestle to grind ingredients into powder and make pills.

Is there a size where one stops being the other?

I'm pretty sure they've never been the same size. The only mortar and pestle that big only belongs to Baba Yaga.

What does that have to do with a yellow bird?

The grapnel is yellow, and you lower it from the ledge up above. I suppose a grapnel could be a metaphorical bird; after all, the hooks look like wings, and it's "flying".

Yes, you need to be a magic user (or at least have some points in the Magic skill, and have some magic spells) to find it.

Both Keapon Laffin and Aziza will tell you about it. It is ... *drumroll* The Wizards' Institute of Technocery, or WIT.
