No, really... where are my Masteria quests?

Odd... it DID teleport me on one of the maps... Maybe I was using a Nearest town scroll... I'll check it later.

You can use NLC scrolls on the Purple Plains maps, just not the two Purplewood maps or at Amos's training ground. I'd be willing to be that if you died it would send you back to Amoria now, though, and before it would not do that; only respawn you right back at the purplewood map, in the middle of the monsters, with 50 HP. >_>
