Yeah I see what you mean, I can consider adding the NPC there beforehand so people aren't too lost, but the relic itself points you there in a way, now that you've found the way to progress the game is gonna get much more open ended and have many more "cryptic" puzzles like that which refer to dialogue and other stuff you might have found. Also, eternal chalice does have a function if you play the classes with summons, its mostly useful for them, but if you are playing solo you can sell it for a lot of gold.

yeah, I made it off the exile island by now.
Not sure if I missed something but on the balista fight before leaving, I didnt really have much choice right?
like., before the fight the guy told me I had like 3 choices:
help his guys defeat the enemies and support them, go destroy the ballista or conquer the ballista so they can use it against the enemy
which might prove difficult.
I personally would have preferred the last option, however I didnt really see much wa to get there since there was only a ballista-destruction-switch there.
Oh, and by the way, in the ocean area, Lavos (I mean cretus ;-)) was harsh! :O
When I first got there, I could barely defeat the minions before him and hi tons of spells he casts in ne round easily wiped me.
well after like 4-5 level ups and not to mention buying new weapons and armor, I finally beat him :-)
for now will go through the sewers on the new island and see whats there, maybe some (partially very old) unsolved things might come to fruiting there.
