Chapter 2 - Aldwyn the Conjurer
Here in Ix, you will find an assortment of homes, shops, and problems. The mayor's house is infested with spiders (you'll see why during a cutscene shortly after the chapter begins), and the bridge to Aldwyn's cottage is washed away.

Quest: Find Aldwyn's Cottage in the Village of Ix
The cottage is in the northeast part of the village, across a river. The bridge keeper will apologize for the washed-out bridge when you finally meet him. First, you'll see cutscenes in which a necromancer summons a spider and sets him on the townspeople and another in which Henrick tames a wolf. You will also spend some time wandering the town, talking to people and taking the gold from the chests inside their homes.

You may elect to enter the archery contest by buying a bow and talking to the guard in the northwest part of town. He will let you inside, where you can try your skill. If you win, your prize will be only a tenth the cost of the bow, but you will receive 500 experience points.

When you finally speak with the bridge guard, he will bemoan the loss of his boots.

Quest: Find the Boots Stolen from the Bridge Guard by the Urchins and Bring Them to Him
The urchins' lair is to the southeast of the bridge guard, down a circular elevator. This maze of urchin homes is best navigated with the help of the mini-map (it appears when you hit the Tab key). The map helps you know which areas you've already explored as well as what's left to explore.

In the middle of the map is a gate, behind which sit the prized boots. The gate requires a ruby key that you will find in a room in the far east of this level, in a chest. Another chest, in one of the northernmost rooms, holds an urchin beast scroll. Possessing it will give you better damage against urchins and will also let you charm them once you gain that ability.

Next: Aldwyn the conjurer (cont.)
