Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Who did not attempt to rescue Elminster from Avernus at some point during the book?

Answer: Khelben "Blackstaff" Arunsun

Khelben and Laeral did at one point question each other as to why a certain memory came to mind all of a sudden. However, they didn't think much of it, and dismissed it.
2. Who did Alassra attempt to bargain with while trying to save Elminster during her first attempt going into Avernus?

Answer: Asmodeus

It would make sense for her to seek a bargain with Asmodeus. Asmodeus is the Lord of Avernus, and as such, he was very likely to know where Elminster was, as well as who had him.
3. What was Nergal so eager to find and gain access to, as well as the use of, in Elminster's mind?

Answer: silver fire

Nergal was looking for a way to ascend higher in the hierarchy of Avernus. Nergal decided that Elminster, being a Chosen of Mystra, would have the power to allow him to do so. As such, Nergal went through Elminster's mind, trying to find instances when Elminster used his magic and the silver fire.
4. How many memories seen dealt with the Srinshee in some way?

Answer: 3

Those who have read "Elminster in Myth Drannor" would remember the Srinshee. She was one of the few elves who were welcoming of Elminster when he had first arrived in the Elven capital city centuries before. According to the memories seen, the two had met at times after the fall of Myth Drannor as well.
5. Which of the Seven Sisters is shown in a memory wanting desperately to become a Harper?

Answer: Alustriel

The memory shows that the man caring for her at the time thought very little of Alustriel's desire to become a Harper, considering her too pretty and girlish to take her seriously. In fact, according to the dream, she was about to be married off to a man who obviously had an even poorer view of her. Thankfully, she managed to kill her "fiance" before he had the chance to despoil her.
6. What is not mentioned as being found in Avernus during this book?

Answer: dragons

There is no point in the book at all where a dragon is seen or heard of.
7. What year is listed in the beginning of the book, indicating the point at which these events happened?

Answer: 1372 DR

Before anything really takes place, the book indicates that the events take place in 1372 DR (Dale Reckoning). It even gives indications as to the years in which the memories found in the book take place.
8. Who eventually got Elminster out of Avernus?

Answer: Alassra

Although both Mystra and Halaster both entered Avernus attempting to get Elminster out, Alassra was the one who eventually succeeded. It wasn't easy for any of them, though, although they certainly caused a great deal of havoc in Avernus in the doing.
9. What had caused Elminster to be trapped in Avernus to begin with?

Answer: closing a rift between Avernus and Toril

The rift (or scar, as it is referred to in the book) would have allowed denizens of Avernus to enter the Prime Material Plane. Elminster had to close the scar, but to do so he had to do it from within Avernus.
10. Where did Elminster reappear when Alassra brought him back?

Answer: Aglarond

Given that Alassra is the Witch-Queen of Aglarond, it was one of the two most obvious places for her to take him.
