In my first play-through it took me over 100 hours to find the Trader, if I would have turned right I would have found him nearly straight away but being me I went left. Moder was the worst though, nearly 230 hours to find her. Yet in my new play-through I saw a Tower on the side of a very steep mountain and thought "I bet that's hard to get to" then I realised what that mean't and I found her nearly straight away.
