You then need to head to Henrietta’s Hideout, in the Manor Cape. It’s to the west of Clagmar Castle, on the small piece of land that kicks out from the side of the map. You can see the building in the image above, you need to head there, deal with the enemies, then enter the cavern underneath.

Open the doors by matching the flaming cube to the flame icon and the same with the freezing one. Casting a flame spell when the correct cube is on the correct icon will cause the door to open, where you’ll find even more Ashwinders. Clear them out before proceeding.
