[edit] Walkthrough
Approach Dagail and ask her about her recommendation. Her response is cryptic, to say the least. Find Agata and ask her about this and she'll explain that Dagail is a seer and that her visions are crippling her because her protective amulet, the Seer's Stone, has gone missing. She asks you to investigate.
Ask around and you'll find that the finger of blame points towards Kalthar, a rather arrogant member of the guild. Talk to him and he proves to resent Dagail's position in the Guild and mentions that her father had similar problems. Head back to Agata and talk to her again - she assumes that Kalthar must have overheard a conversation between her and Dagail, but doesn't remember Dagail's father ever being mentioned. Kalthar lives in the basement of the Mages' Guild. Go to talk to Dagail again and before you get to ask her anything, she proves that the visions are definitely working by anticipating the question. She goes all cryptic again, but fortunately this time around your journal bails you out by translating for you - you've got to head for the fort where her father was stationed. This is Fort Blueblood, not too far out of town - this will now appear on your map.
Fort Blueblood is a two-area dungeon populated by Marauders, a mix of fighters, archers and battlemages. Battle through to the last room, where you'll find the coffin occupied by Dagail's late father, in which you'll find the amulet that he used. It's protected by a couple of beasties, which vary depending on your level. There's some pretty good loot around the place, so be sure to check any containers that you might find around the place, plus the Marauders have some pretty good kit.
Note: Before you pick up the amulet, you might want to strip him naked and sell all the armor you can find in the rest of the dungeon. As soon as you pick up the amulet, you will be accosted, and the bodies and their loot will be cleared from the map. You can loot as much as one or two tons of armour and weaponry from the marauders depending on your level.
Before you get very far on the way out, Kalthar stops you. He reveals that it was he who stole Dagail's amulet, planning to return it after she'd been forced to step down from her position within the Guild; as you might expect, he has a very specific idea about who should take her place. You don't get any choice about fighting him.
NB: Ensure that you talk to him first. If you don't, you will be unable to give Dagail the amulet. Likewise, whilst it is perfectly possible to (providing you have a high enough sneak) pickpocket Kalthar and take the key required in order to get out of the fort, you need to talk.
Take him out and return to Leyawiin. Give the amulet to Dagail and, restored to coherency, she'll gladly give you your recommendation.
