ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Does the orb of scrying count as a magical device for this quest?
I had both scrying for dummies and the curse of magic quests open, before I died,
and was wondering if I get the orb and use it without failing the other quest.

You can use the orb of scrying and the rod of recall.

OKay - got the orb and it's working, and the curse quest is still active. I haven't tried scrying a mystery object yet.
Thanks grey - didn't see your reply until I posted
