He reigned over the kingdom of Daventry with his wife by his side, but he had no heir. The kingdom's prosperity was maintained by the presence of three great treasures, known as Merlin's Mirror, the Shield of Achille, and the Chest of Gold. The Magic Mirror foretold the future, and was extremely valuable, as the King used it to view the weather. This knowledge was used to enhance the harvest, and as a result, Daventry was always well fed, and the excess food was sold to neighboring kingdoms. The Magic Shield, which was made of titanium and set with precious jewels, made the bearer invincible and granted success to his army. The King led his soldiers into battle with this shield, and Daventry easily fought off any attackers. The Magic Chest was a simple wooden trunk, but contained within was an unlimited supply of gold. Edward used this to pay his soldiers, and buy whatever materials and such that Daventry could not supply. Even when gold was taken out of it, the Chest would magically refill itself, and Daventry's treasury was always full. One day, while strolling through the castle gardens mourning their lack of heir, the King and Queen stumbled across a sorcerer. The sorcerer, seemingly eager to enhance the prosperity of the kingdom, offered his services in exchange for the Magic Mirror. The King and Queen, eager for an heir, consulted the Mirror, and, seeing a sturdy youth wearing a gold crown, determined this to be the son they had always wanted. They gave the sorcerer the Mirror, and he hid it away in his underground lair. Many months passed, but still the Queen was not blessed with a child. The sorcerer disappeared, and the kingdom was left heirless and Mirror-less. The years wore on, and Daventry was weakened by the loss of their crops. They were forced to buy food from neighboring kingdoms, and a Plague was brought into the kingdom. This plague struck down the Queen, and for many days she was bed-ridden. On the fourth day of her illness, a dwarf arrived at the castle with a root that he claimed would cure the Queen. Touching it to her lips, the Queen's eyes flickered open, and everyone rejoiced. The King, grateful for the dwarf's services, offered him whatever amount of treasure he might desire. The dwarf requested that he be given the Magic Shield in payment, and the King, his wife not yet out of danger, agreed. The dwarf hid the shield in the earth in the fashion of his kind, and the Queen consumed the root. The supposedly magical cure, despite its miraculous effects when touched to her lips, did nothing more for the Queen. Her condition worsened, and within a few days, she perished. The kingdom mourned her loss, and that of the Shield, and neighboring countries, hearing of the weakened condition of the army, attacked. Without the Magic Shield, many battles were lost, and the kingdom sank deeper into despair. The King was lonely without a companion, and often took to riding with his men. On one such trip, they came across a pack of wolves surrounding a tree. At the approach of the armed men, the wolves scurried away, and a young woman descended from the branches of the tree and thanked them profusely for the rescue. The King, infatuated by the young woman's beauty, took her back to his castle, where she stayed for many a day and night. Eventually, realizing that this was to be his partner in life, Edward proposed to Princess Dahlia, as she was called, and the kingdom rejoiced at the thought of a wedding and, later, an heir. But, on the night before the wedding, Dahlia stole the keys that hung at Edward's belt, and went into the Royal Treasury. The treasurer, noticing the door ajar, peered in, and witnessed in horror the transformation from the beautiful girl to a wrinkled crone. The witch, cackling madly, stole the Magic Chest and flew off on her broomstick. The King's heart was broken, and his treasury empty. He could no longer afford to pay his soldiers or buy food for his starving country, and the woman he loved was gone. The years wore on, and Edward realized that his days were nearing their end. He summoned his closest knight, Sir Graham, and informed him of his troubles. Sending him on a quest to retrieve the three lost treasures, the King promised Graham his throne upon his death. And so Graham set off on a great quest, hoping to return the lost treasures to his country. + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + \| Chapter 1: Graham Goes A-Questin' (And Nearly Loses A Hand) \| + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + Sir Graham, having received summons from King Edward, walked slowly towards Castle Daventry. "I wonder what his highness wants of me," mused the young knight, strolling casually through the short grass. When he reached the castle, he crossed the bridge, avoided the plants growing along the walkway (one mis-step and it was right into the moat with the crocodiles--and death was something Graham felt he was far too young for). He trudged through the thick red carpet covering the floor of the hallway, and turned the corner, heading towards the throne room of Edward the Benevolent. As he reached the steps, Graham removed his hat and bowed. "Welcome, my good knight," stated Edward, his eyes sparkling below his heavy white eyebrows. He passed a shaking hand over his face, then looked to his favorite knight. "Sir Graham, I am an old man. I fear my end is near. I have chosen you to prove yourself worthy of the throne. As you know, our kingdom is weak and poor. I have knowledge of three things that would make our kingdom wealthy and strong. Somewhere within our kingdom, there is a magic mirror which tells the future. There is a magic shield that will protect the bearer from mortal harm. Finally, there is a magic chest that is always filled with gold coins. Go, Sir Graham! Go and bring me back those treasures. If you succeed, you will inherit the throne." Blinking, Graham stood. Not knowing what else to say, he looked to his king and said, "I shall do my best." Smiling, Edward dismissed the young man and settled down in his soft throne cushions, muttering imprecations at his weakened body. Graham fought his way through the carpet to the end of the hall, and let himself out. "Well," thought Graham, the gate shutting behind him, "this is lovely." He walked down the steps, careful not to slip on the wet moss and fall into the moat. Scratching his head, he looked around, wondering where to start. He needed a weapon first of all, he decided. Looking to the left, he saw a tree, and in the distance, a pond. To the right, he saw a boulder, and a forest. Thinking he might be able to pick up a club or something, he went right. As he reached the boulder, he stopped to look around. He leaned on the boulder as he bent to remove a pebble from his shoe, and nearly fell over as it began to wobble. Patiently, he sat down upon the ground, removed the pebble, returned his shoe to his foot, and examined the boulder. It was nearly as big as he, but Graham as a strong fellow, and it was on a downhill slope, so he pushed on it until it slid away, revealing a small hole. Reaching inside, he nearly cut himself on a sharp dagger. He carefully removed it, and, hefting it, marveled at its construction. "My, but this is a fine weapon!" He said to himself, wondering how such a thing came to be buried in the ground under the boulder. He waved it around slightly, getting used to the feel of it, then put it away. The next order of business was food. One cannot travel on an empty stomach, as his father always told him. + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + \| Chapter 2: That Probably Hurt Coming Out... \| + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + Seeing nothing to the south, he turned his toes north, and soon came upon a large tree. Squinting up through the branches, Graham could barely make out what might have been a bird's nest. Noting the rough bark of the oak, our hero grabbed on and scurried up the tree with the speed of a squirrel. He was right about the nest. Edging along the branches, he peered in, expecting to see a few tiny eggs. Imagine his surprise when he saw a massive egg the color of gold! The knight was a kind-hearted fellow, and had it been what he was expecting, he would have only taken one egg and left the others for the birds. But this...this was too much to pass up on! He lunged out and grabbed the egg, the weight of which surprised him ("This must be solid gold!"), then toppled over backwards out of the tree. "OOF! Ouch..." He said, hitting the ground with great force. He winced as he stood up, gently rubbing his lower back. Stretching, he cringed at the cracking sounds coming from his spine ("I'll have arthritis before I'm through here,"), then checked on the egg, which was still intact. He debated whether or not to return it (it was, after all, the only egg there), but didn't really feel up to the climb, so instead kept it. Of course, the egg, being made of gold, wasn't exactly suitable for eating, so Graham pocketed it, and walked east, to the castle gardens. It was far too early for harvesting, but Graham could see a few carrots growing on the western edge that looked ripe. He picked one and chewed on it thoughtfully, then grabbed another one for the road. + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + \| Chapter 3: Graham Is Distracted By Small Shiny Objects \| + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + On a whim, Graham turned north, and as he left the sheltering walls of the garden, he saw a merry little elf skipping around the pond. "Hello," called Graham. "How goes it, my small friend?" "Oh, hello!" The elf smiled cheerfully, and handed Graham a ring. "This is for your kind words, good sir. Everyone else I have encountered has ignored me or tried to kill me." "Why, thank you," said Graham, and slipped it into his pocket, for fear of losing it. "What does it do?" "It makes you invisible, sir! Just rub it!" The elf squeaked, his shrill voice hurting Graham's ears. He glanced at a small pocket watch, gave a small start, and disappeared with a popping noise. Graham looked at his own time gauge, the sun, and noting that it was not very far along in the day at all, decided to go north some more, and very soon, nearly tripped over a bowl. He picked it up, and looked at it. Noticing a small word written on the bottom of it, he read it aloud, in his usual fashion. "Fill." As he spoke, the bowl magically filled with a thick stew. Hungrily, and with no thoughts as to witchcraft or curses or even poison, Graham spooned it down, then wiped his mouth with a sleeve. This bowl, of course, was more useful (not to mention more tasteful) than the carrot, so Graham pocketed it, grinning triumphantly. North seemed to be a good direction for him, so Graham took off that way. He soon came to a river, and on the banks, some pebbles. Always a sucker for anything shiny, Graham picked out some of the prettier pebbles and put them away. Seeing nothing but more river to the north, he turned south again. When he reached the area where he picked up his bowl, he paused and looked around. Seeing a forest to the left, he changed directions and soon came upon a walnut tree. "What good fortune," thought Graham, as he scooped up a walnut. Opening it, he tipped the contents into his hand, and found the nut within to be solid gold. "What GREAT fortune!" He thought, not even wondering how it came to be that nearly everything that he would normally consider to be food was now made of gold. He was tempted to take another walnut, but decided against it, leaving the precious nuts to the other travellers. He smiled to himself ("This quest isn't so bad after all..."), then turned his footsteps once more to the south. + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + \| Chapter 4: Starvin' Lumberjacks... Where Are The Pancakes? \| + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + After a few minutes of walking, he found a door at the bottom of a mountain. Ever the explorer, Graham walked up to it and tried to open it, but it was securely locked, and not even the hardest pulling would budge it. He sighed, slightly disappointed, but then continued on his way. Very soon, he found himself at the very same area in which he had found the dagger. Looking towards the forest to his right, Graham saw a lake. As the sun would very soon be reaching its pinnacle, and the knight was already sweating profusely, he ran up to the lake and jumped in. He swam around a bit, then paddled over to the other side, where he climbed out and shook himself in a dog-like fashion. Wiping the water from his eyes, Graham noticed a log and a stump sitting nearby. Curious, he peeked in both, and was pleased to find a small leather pouch in the stump. He pulled it out, and opened it. "Oh! The gods have been good to me today!" He quickly tucked the diamonds he had found back into their pouch, lest he lose any, and put them securely in his pocket. Laden down with goods and treasure, Graham skipped to the south, where he could see a small log cabin in the distance. When he reached it, he found an axe and a pump in front of it. Try though he might, he could not get the axe out of the stump in which it had been wedged, nor move the pump handle. Giving up, he walked up to the door and knocked, then walked in. His heart ached as his eyes fell upon the hollow faces of a starving woodcutter and his wife. Deciding instantly what he must do, he took out his bowl, and said the magic word. He then set the full bowl upon the table, and the man's eyes began to shine. "Thank you, good sir! Please, take my fiddle in thanks!" Graham, seeing no possible use for it in either the hands of the woodcutter or those of his wife, edged around the hole in the floor, and picked it up, then, remembering his music lessons of so long ago, played a lively tune for the couple. After a bit of socializing, Graham left them to their food, and continued on his journey. South seeming like a good way to go, he took off, passing a lake, and moving towards another house. + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + \| Chapter 5: That Boy Sure Does Love His Cheese (But Not Swiss) \| + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + Getting close to it, Graham could smell baking gingerbread, and his mouth began to water. He began to run, and very soon found out that the house itself was made of gingerbread! Unable to control himself, the knight set upon the house ravenously, but had taken no more than a small bite (but it was by far the best taste he had ever been fortunate enough to experience), when he heard a screeching voice from within. "Nibble, nibble, little mouse. Who's that nibbling at my house?" Recognizing that immediately as the chant of a wicked crone, Graham scurried off and hid behind a tree. Within a minute, he saw her run out of the house, leap upon a broom, and fly off. He stole up to the house, and took another bite out of it. His hunger satisfied for the time being, he opened the door and went into the house, thinking perhaps he could find something useful within. The first stop was the witch's bedroom. Glancing in, Graham could see a piece of paper sitting on the nightstand. He picked it up, and just as he began to read it, he heard the door open and close. His instincts told him to run, but, as there was nowhere to go to, he instead dropped to the floor and crawled over to the doorway. Peering out, he saw the silhouette of the witch against a fire. Siezing this opportunity, Graham ran stealthily out and pushed her. She fell forward, and very soon was nothing but harmless ashes. Graham wiped his hands on his pants, then noticed a cupboard out of the corner of his eye. He walked up to it, and, hoping it wasn't locked, tugged gently. It yielded to his efforts, and within, he found a piece of swiss cheese. Graham was never much of a swiss man himself, always preferring sharp cheddar, but took it anyway, figuring he could always give it to another starving traveller somewhere if need be. He then left (taking a final bite out of the house while doing so), and pointed his face to the west, away from the sun which was nearing its peak and would very soon be overhead. + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + \| Chapter 6: Graham Goes Skinny Dipping (Well, Not Quite) \| + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + After quite a bit of walking, Graham stumbled into a clover patch. Bending down out of childish habit, he scanned the ground for a four-leaved clover, and was pleased to find one rather quickly. He tucked it into his buttonhole for good luck, then straightened up. "Well," mused our hero, "it's really about time for me to stop idling about in the clover." He sighed, and decided that it was about time to go find the Magic Mirror. Remembering something in the old tales about sorcerers hiding their treasures underground, Graham headed to the only outlet to the underworld that he knew of: The old well. As he walked south, a sparkling apparition appeared before his eyes. "Good Sir Graham, I am your fairy godmother," stated the beautiful woman. She sprinkled him with powder as Graham wondered if it was illegal to marry your godmother. Before he could ask, she vanished, but he felt somehow protected against anything evil. With his thoughts on the fairy, he walked east, hands in his pockets as he whistled a tune. He stopped for a bit and watched a goat in his pen, then was reminded of more urgent matters, and ran off to the well, which was fortunately only a short way past the goat pen. Graham thought the rope would be easier to climb without the bucket in his way, so he hacked through the tough cord with his trusty dagger, grabbed the bucket before it could fall, and turned the crank as far as he could. That done, he tightened his belt, checked his pockets, and climbed over the edge of the well. He grabbed onto the rope, and within a minute was sliding down, burning his palms and losing control. He hit the water with a mighty splash, and, after floundering around a bit, managed to regain his composure, and began to tread water. Hoping to find something at the bottom, our hero did a surface dive (never a more graceful diver than Sir Graham has there been), and found himself in an empty pool. Seeing nothing but broken bottles and empty cans, Graham made to go back up, then saw a hole in the wall. Without returning to the surface for a breath, Graham swam down, then wormed his way into the hole, and burst out into scorching heat. + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + \| Chapter 7: Got Water? \| + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + "Yowch!" Shouted Graham, hopping from foot to foot on the hot stone. Glancing up in order to find the source of this heat, Graham found himself face-to-face with a large, fire-breathing dragon. Whipping out his bucket, he turned to fill it with water from the pool, but discovered it to already be so from his swim. Almost without thinking, Graham ran up to the dragon and threw the bucket of water into its face. With steam rising from its nostrils, the dragon shoved a boulder out of the way and ran off into a cave, leaving Graham free to take the Mirror, which had been hidden behind the dragon. "That was almost too easy," thought Graham, looking into the mirror and seeing what he supposed would be the events that would occur in a few days. He saw himself being crowned (he smiled at this), among other minor things. With mirror in hand, Graham swam back out through the well, jumped out of the water with the agility of a dolphin, and somehow managed to climb back out. + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + \| Chapter 8: Farmer Graham Is Also A Psychic And A Goat Trainer \| + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + Strolling over to the goat pen he'd passed earlier, the noble knight leaned on the fence and looked in. A billy goat was wandering around within, and no owner was in sight. Figuring a companion would be nice on his lonely journey, Graham opened the gate and stepped in, making sure to close it again behind it. He walked up to the goat (which meandered over to the over side of the enclosure as he approached), followed it around for a bit, then showed him his carrot (the vegetable, you perverts!). The goat began to follow him. Graham opened the gate and walked out, goat in tow. The companions wandered east, past the well and the area where Graham had met his godmother, then turned north. They reached a bridge spanning the raging river, and Graham started to cross it. As he approached the center, an incredibly ugly personage appeared and grunted a warning of sorts. The goat, having a natural hatred for trolls, charged him, knocking him into the rapid river. The goat, satisfied for the time being wandered off, never to be seen again. Graham shrugged and crossed the bridge. When he got to the other side, much like the fabled chicken, he encountered a short little bearded man with a cane. He ambled up to him and said hello. "Hello, hello! My name is--no, guess! If you do, I'll give you something special! If you don't, I'll still give you something special! But not quite as special as what you'd get if you'd guessed correctly! Unless of course you guess incorrectly but pronounce it wrong! Then I'd give you the specialer of the special prizes! Of course, that wouldn't be right, because you didn't guess my name!" After 5 minutes more of such talk, Graham interrupted the jolly fellow. Reminded of a storybook character his dear old mum had told him about when he was a wee lad, Graham guessed Rumplestiltskin. The gnome laughed, shook his head, and said gleefully, "Two more guesses!" Graham put his hands in his pockets, chewed his lip, and leaned against a tree. He felt a piece of soggy paper in his pocket, and pulled it out. It was the note he had taken from the witch's house. "Sometimes it is wise to think backwards," it said in smudged lettering. The knight put it away, and asked if Nikstlitselpmur was the proper answer. It wasn't. The gnome's eyes glinted as he grinned, and Graham sat down with a box of crayons and tried to figure out what the note meant. After about an hour of this, he decided to try a backwards alphabet. The result? Ifnkovhgroghprm. The gnome looked furious, jumping up and down in his fury. Suddenly, he disappeared in a puff of smoke, and Graham was left alone. Where the midget had been standing seconds before, there were 5 small beans. Graham picked them up, then skipped off to the east. + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + \| Chapter 9: Graham Starts A Garden, And Kicks Some Major Butt \| + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + Tiring quickly of the strenuous activity of skipping, Graham stopped in a patch of flowers and sat down to rest. Poking at the damp earth and choosing not to have gas when he returned to the king, he planted the beans he'd gotten from Ifnkovhgroghprm in the ground, and was knocked off of his feet as a beanstalk sprouted out of the ground at a magnificent rate. Graham craned his neck, but he couldn't see the top of it. It seemed to go through the clouds. Being the adventurous chap that he was, he tightened his bootlaces, spit on his hands, and began climbing. Three hours, twelve falls, and several bruises later, Graham reached the top of the beanstalk. By the time he was twenty feet up, he had been holding onto the stalk for dear life, as a fall would break his neck and kill him. Not something Graham was prepared to do. He carefully stepped off the stalk, onto the cloud-covered land. Stepping gingerly along lest he fall off the cliff, he made his way over to the east, where he could see some trees, and a tall figure. He stepped into the visual range of the giant, and was immediately chased. He ducked away, hiding behind a tree, and soon lost him. Creeping along around the trees and trying to avoid the violent giant, Graham managed to find a slingshot hidden in the crotch of a tree. He loaded it with one of his shiny pebbles, then bravely ran up to the giant. The giant raised the trunk he was carrying and tried to bash a dent into Graham's head, but before he could, Graham popped him with a pebble. He fell like a rock, and Graham strode over to his fallen enemy. He opened the chest, and was surprised to find it full of gold. Correctly assuming it was the lost Chest of Gold, he pocketed it. How, I know not. After all, it was a massive wooden box filled with gold. However, Graham's a husky lad, so I guess he managed somehow... He also probably had a strong belt. With the Chest in his possession, it was time to head down the mountain, so Graham looked around. The idea of climbing down the beanstalk didn't exactly have him bouncing in his britches, so he opted to attempt to go down through the cave he could see in the east. And so off he went to explore the great unknown. + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + \| Chapter 10: Graham Finds Another Midget, And Nearly Loses His Stuff \| + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + Midgets certainly are common in the land of Daventry. As Graham was making his way down the steep and slippery stairs he found within the cave, a bearded dwarf appeared out of nowhere and tried to get all of Graham's cool stuff out of his pockets. Graham leapt down the stairs three at a time, nearly breaking his ankles (and neck), but making it safely to the bottom. Once there, he ran around in circles with the dwarf in tow for nearly five minutes, then made a dash for the door, which magically disappeared. He ran out, followed by the hairy midget, who immediately retreated to the cool darkness of the cave when the blinding sun showed its face. The door reappeared, and Graham recognized his location to be that of the area in which he had tried to pull the door open, but to no avail. He did a dance of joy, having found two of the three lost treasures, then went off to find the third. + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + \| Chapter 11: Graham Hitches A Ride On A Giant Bird, Then Gets Stoned \| + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + After wandering around Daventry for awhile, Graham found himself to be outside another cave. As he was debating whether or not to go in, a giant Condor swept down upon him, knocking off his hat and ruffling his hair. He put the hat back on, and glared up at the bird, which stared back. As the bird passed overhead once more, Graham jumped up and grabbed onto its talons. With a screech of rage, the Condor took off for its nest, taking along the rather frightened Graham. As they neared the Daventry border, Graham let go of the bird, and fell to the ground with a resounding "THUMP!" Nursing a sore rear end, Graham hobbled around the area. He noticed a rather large hole in the ground, and a colorful mushroom as well. He picked the mushroom, then jumped down the hole, bruising his bum once more. He stood up, brushed himself off, and limped over to a passageway leading into the rock. Rubbing his posterior, he followed the dark passageway to its end... where he was stopped by a giant rat blocking a door. Thinking quickly, he whipped out the swiss cheese and threw it at the rat. The rat gulped it down, then scampered off, leaving Graham free to enter the door. Almost at once, he was set upon by two more midgets, who backed off when they spotted Graham's clover. Assuming the latest set of undersized inviduals were leprechauns, the knight nodded to them, then walked out into a large room. This room was filled with leprechauns of all sizes, and Graham, as a giant (to them, anyway), intimidated them. Ignoring the clover, they started to approach him with menacing looks in their eyes. He whipped out his fiddle, and started playing a merry little ditty his father had taught him. Graham was an extremely talented fellow. He was strong and agile, a five star diver, a master musician, a champion climber, a goat tamer, a gardener, a crayon artist, a psychic, and he made a mean omelette. The leprechauns were suckers for good music, and danced themselves away. When they were all gone, Graham ran over to the throne previously occupied by what must have been the leprechaun king. He picked up the scepter, as well as the shiny shield beside it. Feeling infinitely stronger, Graham took the Shield of Achilles and followed the dancing leprechauns. Except Graham had one slight handicap. The leprechauns had danced their way out through a tiny hole in the rock, and Graham could barely fit a hand through there. Sitting down to think, he pulled out the mushroom. Slightly depressed, he nibbled on it, and finding it to be quite tasty, ate the entire thing. His head spun, colors flashed, and suddenly everything seemed huge, including the hole. He went through. + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + \| Chapter 12: Graham Goes Home And Does Something Cool \| + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + Shortly following his escape, Graham's cool magic mushroom lost its effect (he was greatly disappointed), and he decided it was time to head back to the castle. So off he went. Upon arrival, he returned to King Edward, bowed, and showed him the treasures. Edward announced his successor to the kingdom, then had a heart attack and died. The kingdom mourned his loss, and Graham was made king. He rescued the land from famine and poverty, paid the soldiers, fed his subjects, and was generally a good guy. The End. + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + \| .:~:._.:~:._.:~:._.:~:._.:~:._.:~:._.:~:._.:~:._.:~:. \| + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + \| .:~:._.:~:._.:~:._.:~:._.:~:._.:~:._.:~:._.:~:._.:~:. \| + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + \| < 3.

Game Basics -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- o Story (Manual Version) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- A long, long time ago, when unicorns still roamed the forests and the merfolk still dwelt in the shallow waters frequented by men, there ruled in the kingdom of Daventry King Edward and his lovely Queen. The people of Daventry were prosperous and happy, and everywhere peace reigned. But the King and Queen were sad because they were childless. They had no son to inherit the throne, nor daughter to gladden their hearts. One bright, sunny day King Edward the Benevolent (for so he was called) and his Queen were walking in the castle garden when suddenly before them appeared a powerful sorcerer. "I know your problem and I can cast a spell that will bring you a child," he said. "Oh, great sorcerer, if you can help us, we will be everlastingly grateful," said the Queen. "We will bestow upon you many honors, and great riches," said the King. "I have no use for honors or riches. MY payment will not be so great. All I ask in return is the mahogany-framed Mirror that hangs in your private chamber." The sorcerer's words gave them pause, for that Mirror was priceless. It had the power to read the future, and helped Daventry prosper. The royal couple used it to foretell the weather for planting and harvest, as had the kings and queens before them. It had been hundreds of years since a crop had been planted before the last frost, or had been ruined by autumn rain. What the sorcerer desired was indeed valuable. The King and Queen retired to their chamber to consult the magic Mirror. King Edward and his wife gazed into the Mirror's depths and saw a young princely figure with a gold crown upon his head. Imagining the youth to be the son they yearned for, the royal couple gladly bestowed the Mirror upon the sorcerer. He took it to his dwelling, where he set one of his beasts to guard over it. The months passed and the Queen did not conceive a child. For the first time in four hundred years, Daventry lost the harvest to an early autumn rainstorm. The King and Queen wept, and everyone tightened their belts. Instead of having excess produce to sell to neighboring kingdoms, the people of Daventry had to supplement their stores with food bought elsewhere. With famine came the dreaded Plague, and the Queen was stricken. For three days she lay in the grip of a great fever, with Edward maintaining a constant vigil by her side. On the fourth day of the Queen's illness, a diminutive figure pushed his way between the legs of the castle guards. "I have a cure for the Queen," he claimed. Quickly the courtiers ushered him into the Queen's chamber, where the King despaired. "I have traveled a great distance to bring relief to our dear wife. This powerful root known only to dwarves will cure any plague." The dwarf leaned over the Queen and touched the root to her lips. Her eyes fluttered open and she smiled at Edward. The Queen's attendants looked at each other in wonderment. "Only a touch revived her," they whispered. "Imagine how fast she will recover when given the whole root!" "Ask any reward for this miraculous gift, oh small one," exclaimed King Edward. "I ask in repayment the Shield left you by your father when he died," said the dwarf softly. The King paled at the thought. The Shield, made of titanium and set with emeralds, was traditionally carried in battle by the ruler of Daventry. Legend held that he who bore the Shield was invincible, and his army always victorious. Thus there had been no successful attack on the kingdom of Daventry for over five hundred years. "Ask again, little man. I will give you your weight in gold, but please do not ask for the Shield," said the King. "You do not appear to value your wife's life, your Highness," said the dwarf. "I will take no other reward than that which I have requested." Haughtily, he turned to go. "Come back," Edward called. "I'll give you the Shield." The Dwarf took the Shield, and secreted it away in a hold in the ground, in the way of Dwarves. The Queen partook of the root, but to no avail. She worsened and died. Daventry's church bells tolled in mourning, and the King vowed vengeance against the false dwarf. Years passed, and the news of the loss of the Shield spread. Armies attacked the weakened Daventry, and the King went out to lead his armies without the Shield. Many years passed, and the King was very lonely. One day, while out riding with his courtiers, Edward came upon a pack of wolves tearing at the lower limbs of a big tree. When the group approached, the wolves scattered to reveal a beautiful young woman perched in the tree. The King was charmed with the Princess Dahlia, and brought her back to his castle to visit. He felt new life coursing through his veins, and knew it was because he had met someone who might fill the loneliness left by his late Queen. In due time Edward asked Dahlia to marry him, and she accepted. The people of Daventry were wildly excited at the prospect of a new Queen (and hopeful again of an heir), and made preparations for a glorious wedding celebration. On the night before the wedding, when the air resounded with toasts and merriment, Princess Dahlia bid Edward good night. He never noticed her hand stealing up to his belt and extracting the ring of keys hanging there. Much later, the Royal treasurer approached the King with alarming news. He had discovered the treasury door standing open, with the King's own key in the lock. The Princess Dahlia had been inside, holding a small chest of gold. The treasurer stood frozen to the spot. The Princess' bright laughter changed to a witch's cackle as her form grew old and withered. She grasped the Chest and mounted her broom to fly out the open window. The treasurer watched with horror as she swooped up through the clouds and disappeared. When the King heard the news, he wept in despair. That Chest was magic, and the last great treasure remaining in Daventry. No matter how much was taken from it, the Chest always remained brimming with golden coins. Without the Chest, Edward could buy no more food, pay no more soldiers. Many more years passed, and Daventry grew poor and weak. King Edward was old and feeble, and saw that his end was near. Fearing that the country would fall into even greater disorder when he died, he sent for his favorite knight, Sir Graham. "You are the bravest and truest knight in my kingdom, Sir Graham. Long ago I envisioned your form in my magic Mirror, and thought I was seeing my son and heir. The years have proven me at least half wrong. But the prophecy may yet be fulfilled. "To prove yourself worthy of my crown, I command you to journey out into the world and retrieve the three great treasures taken from Daventry by treachery and stealth. Fail, and our beautiful Daventry will grow ever weaker until it is invaded and conquered by an unfriendly nation. Succeed in this great quest, and you shall become King upon my death. This I promise by all that is honorable and right. "Look to the fables and fairy stories of yore for clues. Leave no stone unturned, no avenue unexplored, and you will triumph in your quest. Along the way, collect as many treasures as you can. The kingdom of Daventry will need everything you can bring back. And you will profit from the experience." Go now, Sir Graham. And in the words of King Edward, "May you return victorious!" -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- o Story (My Version) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Once upon a time, there lived a mighty king named Edward the Benevolent. He reigned over the kingdom of Daventry with his wife by his side, but he had no heir. The kingdom's prosperity was maintained by the presence of three great treasures, known as Merlin's Mirror, the Shield of Achille, and the Chest of Gold. The Magic Mirror foretold the future, and was extremely valuable, as the King used it to view the weather. This knowledge was used to enhance the harvest, and as a result, Daventry was always well fed, and the excess food was sold to neighboring kingdoms. The Magic Shield, which was made of titanium and set with precious jewels, made the bearer invincible and granted success to his army. The King led his soldiers into battle with this shield, and Daventry easily fought off any attackers. The Magic Chest was a simple wooden trunk, but contained within was an unlimited supply of gold. Edward used this to pay his soldiers, and buy whatever materials and such that Daventry could not supply. Even when gold was taken out of it, the Chest would magically refill itself, and Daventry's treasury was always full. One day, while strolling through the castle gardens mourning their lack of heir, the King and Queen stumbled across a sorcerer. The sorcerer, seemingly eager to enhance the prosperity of the kingdom, offered his services in exchange for the Magic Mirror. The King and Queen, eager for an heir, consulted the Mirror, and, seeing a sturdy youth wearing a gold crown, determined this to be the son they had always wanted. They gave the sorcerer the Mirror, and he hid it away in his underground lair. Many months passed, but still the Queen was not blessed with a child. The sorcerer disappeared, and the kingdom was left heirless and Mirror-less. The years wore on, and Daventry was weakened by the loss of their crops. They were forced to buy food from neighboring kingdoms, and a Plague was brought into the kingdom. This plague struck down the Queen, and for many days she was bed-ridden. On the fourth day of her illness, a dwarf arrived at the castle with a root that he claimed would cure the Queen. Touching it to her lips, the Queen's eyes flickered open, and everyone rejoiced. The King, grateful for the dwarf's services, offered him whatever amount of treasure he might desire. The dwarf requested that he be given the Magic Shield in payment, and the King, his wife not yet out of danger, agreed. The dwarf hid the shield in the earth in the fashion of his kind, and the Queen consumed the root. The supposedly magical cure, despite its miraculous effects when touched to her lips, did nothing more for the Queen. Her condition worsened, and within a few days, she perished. The kingdom mourned her loss, and that of the Shield, and neighboring countries, hearing of the weakened condition of the army, attacked. Without the Magic Shield, many battles were lost, and the kingdom sank deeper into despair. The King was lonely without a companion, and often took to riding with his men. On one such trip, they came across a pack of wolves surrounding a tree. At the approach of the armed men, the wolves scurried away, and a young woman descended from the branches of the tree and thanked them profusely for the rescue. The King, infatuated by the young woman's beauty, took her back to his castle, where she stayed for many a day and night. Eventually, realizing that this was to be his partner in life, Edward proposed to Princess Dahlia, as she was called, and the kingdom rejoiced at the thought of a wedding and, later, an heir. But, on the night before the wedding, Dahlia stole the keys that hung at Edward's belt, and went into the Royal Treasury. The treasurer, noticing the door ajar, peered in, and witnessed in horror the transformation from the beautiful to a wrinkled crone. The witch, cackling madly, stole the Magic Chest and flew off on her broomstick. The King's heart was broken, and his treasury empty. He could no longer afford to pay his soldiers or buy food for his starving country, and the woman he loved was gone. The years wore on, and Edward realized that his days were nearing their end. He summoned his closest knight, Sir Graham, and informed him of his troubles. Sending him on a quest to retrieve the three lost treasures, the King promised Graham his throne upon his death. And so Graham set off on a great quest, hoping to return the lost treasures to his country. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- o Characters -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- King Edward the Benevolent: Edward has led the kingdom of Daventry through many years of prosperity and famine.

Insert your game disk or CD into the proper drive. Since you're probably running Windows 95 or better (which doesn't really take much in Windows), I'll start with the installation instructions there. Go to the Taskbar (it's that thing at the bottom of your screen) and hit the Start button. From there, select the Run option (it's near the bottom), and hit the browse button. Go to the directory of your disk or CD drive, and select install or setup or whatever. Follow the on-screen instructions. If you're running Windows 3.x (and if you are, no offense, but you deserve to be shot...), in the Program Manager, left click on the menu choice File and choose Run. Do what they say. If you're running MS-DOS, type the letter of your disk or CD drive followed by a colon (:), and press enter. You'll see the drive's prompt. At said prompt, type 'dir' to view the drive's directory, and type the file name of the install or setup or whatever program. Voila. To play in Windows, open the directory in which you installed the game, and double click on the game icon. In DOS, go to the prompt of the drive on which you installed the game and type 'dir' to see the directory, then type the .bat or .exe file matching the name of the game. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- o Basics -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Score: Throughout the game, various actions and items will earn points for you.

This Menu Bar option determines the Speed at which the game runs. Normal: If you're using a modern computer, this is the Speed you'll wanna be using throughout the game. Fast: If you're on an old computer, this might be the Speed for you, but you're just asking for trouble if you use it on anything fast. Slow: This Speed is far too sluggish for me, so I never use it. Do so if you want to... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- o Controls -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- F1.................Displays the Help screen F2.................Toggles sound on and off F3.................Retypes last line F5.................Saves F7.................Restores F9.................Restarts Tab................Opens your Inventory Esc................Displays the Menu Bar/Pauses the Game Enter..............Acknowledges that you've seen the message or something 0..................Jump -..................Duck =..................Swim Ctrl+J.............Sets up your Joystick Alt+Z..............Exits the Game Arrow Keys.........Moves Graham Letter Keys........Types an Action -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- 4. In-Depth Walkthrough -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- o Introduction -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- You'll start out on the bright green grass outside Castle Daventry. Nobody tells you this, but the general idea here is to get your bum in there and talk to Edward. So cross the bridge. It might look 3D, but it's only 2D. So just go across. It's easy to do. Once across the bridge, make your way over to the left, and walk that way until you're in front of the door. Walk up to it, and open it. You'll end up inside the castle. It's not much of a building, is it? Make your way down the hall and around a corner, and you'll reach the throne room. Walk up to the big guy, bow, and talk to King Edward, who'll give you the following message: "Sir Graham, I am an old man. I fear my end is near. I have chosen you to prove yourself worthy of the throne. As you know, our kingdom is weak and poor. I have knowledge of three things that would make our kingdom wealthy and strong. Somewhere within our kingdom, there is a magic mirror which tells the future. There is a magic shield that will protect the bearer from mortal harm. Finally, there is a magic chest that is always filled with gold coins. Go, Sir Graham! Go and bring me back those treasures. If you succeed, you will inherit the throne." Now it's back outside for our coral-clad protagonist. So go outside, then head to the left. See that rock? Stand behind it and push. If you stand below it, it will fall over you and kill you. So make sure you're behind it. When it's out of the way, look in the hole, and grab the dagger. Yay. Now go north. Climb the tree with the hole in it. Creep along the branches and get the egg, then climb back down. Or jump. Your call. Now go east. You'll end up in a big carrot patch. Grab a carrot. Yummy. You can eat it, but it would be easier not to, 'cause if it's eaten, you'll have to get another one. Go north. If you're lucky, there'll be an elf wandering around. If not, enter and exit until there is one. Then walk up to it and talk to it. Graham's a pretty lovable guy, so the nice li'l elf will give him a ring. Ooooooh. Purty. Go north again. Grab the giant bowl on the ground. Have fun while doing so. I always enjoy picking up dishes in the middle of nowhere, don't you? Look in the bowl, and say "fill." Ooh. If you go north again (north is quite a popular direction these days, no?), you'll end up by a river. It's kinda hard to tell, but those brown and grey things in the sand are pebbles. Grab 'em. They make great slingshot ammo. Go back south, then head west. You can nab a walnut, but this ain't no ordinary nut. Open it. Oooooooooh. Now go south. Ignore the door for now, and go south for two more screens. You should end up back at the boulder under which you found your dagger. Now go west. You'll end up by a lake. Get in, and swim. Splashy splash splash. Whee. Swim across the leg and get out at the west shore. Walk west for a screen, then look into the stump. Get the pouch, and open it. Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet. Now go back east, then south. You should be at the woodcutter's pad. Nothin' you can do outside, so go on in. They look depressed. Or maybe they're just hungry. Say "fill" if you haven't already, then give them the bowl. Yummy. Now head down into the lower-right corner of their shack (avoid the holes... you're too young to die), and grab the fiddle. Play them a song, then go back outside. Go south for a few screens, and you'll run into the Gingerbread House. Save your game, then eat the house. If the coast is clear, the house will be yummier than it looks. If not, someone will say the nibble mouse thing. If you get the nibble mouse thing, just leave the screen and return, then try again. When you get the yummy line, go in, then go to the bedroom and pick up the note on the nightstand. Read it. "Sometimes it is wise to think backwards." Hmmmmmmmmmmm... Wait where you are until witchy witch comes home, and do the cool thing and save your game. When she gets there, she'll walk over to her oven and start jiggling around. Walk up behind her and push her. Ding dong, the witch is dead... Now that that's taken care of, open that cupboard against the back wall and take the cheese from it. I don't like swiss, but somebody must. Of course, if you're a pacifist, you could just stand outside the witch's door and use the ring the elf gave you to do all that stuff, and the witch won't return. But it's more fun to burn her. When you're done in the Gingerbread House, go west three times. Ignore the bridge (you can't cross it yet anyway) and go south. Ooooooh...Clovers. Get one. It's got four leaves. Lucky you. Now it's time to get the three treasures. In the original version, this can be done in any order. Since I'm playing the original version, and this guide is for it, I'll just do the treasures in whatever order I feel like doing it in, and you can skip around as you like. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- o Obtaining the Magic Mirror -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Now, if you're doing things my way, you should be in the clover patch at this point. Head south. If you're lucky, a Fairy Godmother will show up and protect you from evil such as the dwarf and wolf and stuff. When she goes away and you're armed against all evil, go east for three screens. Ignore the goat for now. You should end up by a well. Now that you're there, make sure the bucket is up, then cut the rope. Move around to the right side of the well and lower the rope, then climb in. When you reach the bottom, you'll fall off. Swim. Dive. Swim down and into the hole on the left side. You'll see a dragon. There are two ways to get rid of the dragon. Either way, move up close to it. Not too close...just to where its breath ends. Once their, it's decision time. The best method, and the one that earns points for you, is to throw the water at the dragon. Yea...when you were swimming around, your bucket was filled up. That will extinguish the flaming breath, and he'll scurry off. The other way of doing things is cruel and inhumane. Throw your dagger at it. It dies. Meanie! Once the dragon's outta the way, pick up the mirror. Look into it, and you'll see yourself as King. Oooooooh. Decision time again. Now you have to choose how to get out. It's best to go out the way you came. You get more points. If you don't want to go out that way, you can follow the dragon out. But you probably shouldn't do that. If you take the first way out, just swim back up to the surface and climb the rope. Get your scurvy bum outta there, and you've finished part 1 of the three quests. That was easy, wasn't it? -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- o Obtaining the Magic Chest -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- From the well, head left one screen and you'll find the goat pen. Open up the door, go in, close it, and find the goat wandering around in there. Graham has no respect for his fellow citizens, so he'll have no qualms about stealing someone's goat. So show the goat the carrot. Don't give the carrot to the goat, or it will not follow you. With the goat in tow, reopen the gate and head west for two screens. From there, go north twice, and you'll be in front of a bridge. Walk onto it. Your goat will take care of things from here, then run off. Go north, and you'll encounter a gnome. When you talk to him, he'll tell you to guess his name. Remember the note at the witch's shack? It said "Sometimes it is wise to think backwards" or something to that effect. Well, this is the hardest puzzle in the game, so listen up. The name "Rumplestiltskin" is the one you've gotta start with. From there, you have to reverse the name, not by making it "Nikstlitselpmur," but by reversing the alphabet. Like this: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z Z Y X W V U T S R Q P O N M L K J I H G F E D C B A So anyone with any logic whatsoever should be able to figure out that the guy's name is "Ifnkovhgroghprm." How you're supposed to pronounce that, I know not. But it might be something like "if-nuh-kov-grog-hip-urm." Ah well. If you've guessed it right, Iffy goes away, leaving 5 or so beans for you. Get 'em. If you waste your guesses, you'll get a golden key. Oh well... It gets you to where you need to go, so be happy about it. Or something. Now that you have your prize, we'll split up the walkthrough for a bit. If you got the key, skip to the section below this one. Otherwise, check out the next part. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Beans -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Take your new food, if you haven't already. But DO NOT EAT THEM. Unlike the carrots, you can't go out and get new beans whenever you feel the urge to do so. With beans in hand, head east two screens. You should be at a flower patch. This looks like a good place for gardening. Plant your beans. A beanstalk will sprout. If you know what's good for you, save your game. This next part is EVIL. It's all about saving every time you move a single pixel and going at the slowest speed. The beanstalk is big, it's tall, and it has lots of little things that you'd think Graham would be able to climb, but he can't. So anyway, make sure both of yer grubby little paws are on the vine at all times, and creep your way up there. ...That was your reward for guessing the name...Snort...some reward. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Key -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- If you guessed the gnome's name wrong, then he'll leave you with a key. Take it, then head over to the door in the mountain. For those of you lacking knowledge as to the exact placement of that location, just go south twice and east 5 times from the gnome's shack. Use your key in the lock, and you'll be granted access to the stairs within. Save your game, and go on up. If the gnome steals anything, restore. 'Cause you ain't gettin' it back, buddy. Make your way upstairs, and then it's on to the next section for you. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- When you reach the top, save your game again, then head over to the right. Go south from there, then east two screens. Move on over to that tree with the hole in its base, and peek in. Grab the sling outta there, then go north. There are two possible ways to eliminate the giant. The more profitable way, point-wise, is to do it without killing him. So wear your ring, head west, and rub it upon entrance. Wander around, avoiding him, until he falls asleep, then walk up to him and get the chest. Whee. Insta-money! The other, violent, not-as-profitable way, is to shoot him with your sling. So from the cave entrance, go west, and use your sling. You'll kill him. Meanie. Either way you went about getting it, the chest is now yours, so go east. You should see a cave. Save your game, then head in. Edge your way down the stairs, and leave through the bottom. Of course, you could also take the beanstalk if that's how you got there... But I wouldn't recommend it. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- o Obtaining the Magic Shield -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Now that you've got 2/3 of the magic stuff in your possession, it's off to leprechaun land to get the last thing. So head west 3 screens from the door in the mountain. At this point, you should be outside the small cave, the very same small cave that you emerged from if you chased the dragon out of there. If you hang around for a few seconds, a giant friendly bird will show up. Prepare to jump. As the Condor swoops overhead, jump. Graham will end up clasped tightly in his vicious talons. And they call this thing FRIENDLY? >LOOK AROUND You see nothing special. Nothing special? You're flying through the air in the talons of a giant bird with flashing eyes! After a minute or so of this, the Condor will drop you, and you'll land in an area with lotsa bushes with purple berries and a hole in the ground. You'll want to jump into that hole eventually, but for now, just head west. Nab the mushroom sitting beside the river, then go back over to the right. Step on over to that hole, and you'll fall in. So now you're in... LEPRECHAUN LAND!!!!! Whee. Go down, and left from there. Go right up to the edge of the rat's circuit, and give him the cheese. Count your fingers. Now open the door and go in. The leprechauns will be impressed by that clover you picked up earlier and will leave you alone. Go down, and play a pretty song. Everyone will go away. Pocket the scepter and the shield. Imagine the glances Graham would get while walking through town with THAT in his pocket. Go left. Walk up to the tiny hole in the wall and eat your mushroom. Graham will turn into a midget. Normally, the pixellation would decrease and the character would look grainy. I see no difference. I don't think Sierra maxed out their graphical capabilities when the made Graham... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- o Return to Castle Daventry -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- You've got all your treasures, so it's back to the castle for you, young man. Walk north twice then east twice, open the door, and go see Mr. Benevolency. Bow to him, then walk up to him, he'll stand up, have a heart attack, and you'll be King. Coooooooooooooooooool. Game over. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- 5. Maps -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ASCII maps are hard to make, but I'll try my best.

FAQs -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Q: I keep falling off the bridge in the beginning! Why? A: I don't care if it looks 3D, it's not. Just walk across it like this: && G&&&& \|___\| \|\| <-- /\<--\ <-- /╞╞╞╞\ \| \| Or something. I'm bad at ASCII art. That G represents Graham's starting point, of course. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Q: I lost points! What now? A: It's not really a big deal if you don't get every point in the game. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Q: The dwarf stole my Mirror/Chest! A: Restart or restore. There's nothing you can do to get it back. Maybe you should've gotten the Shield first... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Q: Where can I buy this game? A: It comes with the other King's Quest games in a few collections (such as the King's Quest Collection or the Roberta Williams Anthology), or you could try eBay.com. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- 8.

So far, only one person has taken me up on this offer. Where are the rest of you? I know you want to... ∙ You found something that the author missed and you want to tell her about it. This only works if It's in a part of the game covered by the guide. ∙ You want to worship the author and build a shrine for her. (Hey, why not? I might as well let people do this, since they seem to want to anyway...What, you want to use me for a human sacrifice? AAAAAahhh!) ∙ You want to make a suggestion that you feel will help make the author, the world, and/or this guide a better person, place, and/or thing. I probably won't take it, though...I don't think the same way the rest of you do. ∙ Your pants are on fire and you want to borrow a fire extinguisher. ∙ You're a really cool person who knows how to spell and speak relatively decent English (or Russian or Spanish) and you want to be my friend. ∙ You speak perfect English and perfect any-other-language and want to translate this sucka for me.

Yes, I appreciate the thought, but unless I missed something major, like a boss battle or something, I really don't need (or want) your assistance. It's annoying to open your inbox and find 15 emails from people wanting to help and 5 more with people who have already assumed their help is wanted and have therefore sent poorly spaced and atrociously spelled partial walkthroughs for parts of the game that are either covered already or I haven't reached yet. When I'm ready to accept help from the rest of you, I'll ask. ∙ She has a headache. Stupid emails (and even moderately intelligent ones) make headaches worse, which leads to mean emails and flaming. Don't do it. It's a big, big, no no. And remember, the mood is posted up there, so you might want to check it before emailing me. I generally keep the same mood for a few days, unless something extreme happens, but if it does, chances are, I won't be checking my email, anyway. ∙ You have nothing intelligent to say. "I finished the game before you. Nyah." is not intelligent, and I'll have to delete it. Sorry. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- If you have reason to contact me for anything other than those circumstances stated on the allowed list, your email will be read, laughed at, and deleted. Or maybe just deleted. The same actions will be taken if you ask a question that is answered within the guide. And don't be surprised if I don't reply to you immediately. I get lots of email every day, and I try to answer all of it, but things sometimes get out of hand. If you contact me with something from the no-no list, I'll probably reply and call you a dirty name that you won't want to repeat to the younguns (Lord of the Flies!), then be generally surly and mean to you until I forget about your entire existence. Then I'll just treat you like everyone else, until you make me mad again. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- 10.

Solution #3 for King's Quest 1: Quest for the Crown K K IIIII NN N GGGGG SSSSS QQQQQ U U EEEEE SSSSS TTTTT IIIII K K I N N N G S Q Q U U E S T I KKK I N N N G GGG SSSSS Q Q U U EEEEE SSSSS T I K K I N N N G G S Q Q Q U U E S T I K K IIIII N NN GGGGG SSSSS QQQQQ UUUUU EEEEE SSSSS T IIIII Q (The quest for the crown) [original version] sissor_man sissor_man@hotmail.com 7/13/00 ------------------------------------- --------------- THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ------------------------------------- --------------- There are a few things you should know while playing kings quest 1. It is an old game, a very old game and that means that the speed and sprites aren't as high tech to today standards, but that gives no reason to hate a classic. Much like my other faqs I take you through this in story form and since this is such an old game, i will tell you how to solve it, for those of you who want to beat it than and there. I apologize if anything is misplaced or mispelled. As always i have a box of thank you's to everyone that has helped this faq prosper. oh and one more thing. This faq is protected under copy right law 1998, Joey Rowland (you get what im saying) ------------------------------------- --------------- ON WITH THE FAQ ------------------------------------- --------------- 1. A VISIT TO THE CASTLE ------------------------------------- --------------- As you stand in front of the grandest castles in the land, you begin to think of your calling to this place. Hmmm you think as you hold your chin in deep concentration. What could the king of this fine land possibly want with me? You shake all guesses out of your head as you will only get yourself confused, instead you cross the bridge to make your way over to the castle door. You look down into the moat as you see many hungry alligators eye you in hopes that you will fall, and become lunch. Not today you say aloud as you cross the bride, they swim away. You contine to scale the castle until finally you find the big door. Here it is you say aloud as you wipe the sweat from your forehead. You open the humoungus doors and step in. Inside you see grand trophies and even grander wall plaques. You cant beleive it you think as you follow the red carpet to where the king sits. You tend to lose your train of thought as you reach the king. Uhh you say aloud as you stand in front of the king, not knowing what to say. (o.k. This is what you do, when you start, walk left over the bridge, be carful not to fall in the water, then keep heading left until you are in front of a big door. In front of that door type "OPEN DOOR" and the door should open. keep following the red carpet until you are in front of the king.) ------------------------------------- --------------- 2. WHAT DID YOU CALL ME HERE FOR GREAT KING ------------------------------------- --------------- As you stand in front of the king speechless, all you can do is walk a couple of feet in front of him and bow. You drop your hat and in attempt to pick it up the king begins to lauph. You put your hat back uptop your head and begin to smile also. You clear your throat, and begin to speak with more confidence. Yes your highness, you wanted to speak with me? (o.k. stand in front of the king and type "BOW" you should bow, you have to be in a perfect spot for this to happen, then type "TALK TO KING", you should find out your mission. thats it leave.) ------------------------------------- --------------- 3. YOU CANT WAGE WAR ON AN EMPTY STOMACH ------------------------------------- --------------- As you leave the castle, you look up into the sky. ahhh you say as you take in the nice fresh air what a pleasant day this is. You cross the bridge closest to you and head north. you stop to take a look around, and to think. so this is what the king wanted, for me to be heir to the throne. This is too good to be true. Your stomach begins to growel as you look ahead of you and see a dirt farm of freshly grown carrots. your mouth begins to water as you pick one. You put it into your pouch knowing that you will be even more hungry later, and you better save it. Now you say as a smile crosses your face, time to become king. (o.k. when you leave the castle cross the bridge closest to you and walk up, then walk on the dirt and type "TAKE CARROT", you should get a carrot.) ------------------------------------- --------------- 4. THAT WOULD MAKE ONE HUGE AMLET ------------------------------------- --------------- You begin to head west looking for the three treasures the king ordered you to get. you stop as you notice something shining in a tree right above you. You try to get a better look from where your standing but alas you cannot. There is only one way to solve this you think to yourself as you hug the tree and begin climbing it. After a couple of seconds of climbing the giant tree you see lying smugly in a nest a gigantic golden egg. You eyes begin to get wider as you walk over to it. This is what i need you yell out as you take it and put it into your pouch. you make your way back down to the ground, you sit down and admire your golden egg for a second. (o.k. keep walking left after you get the carrot and there should be a giant tree. stand in front of it and type "CLIMB TREE" when your up in the tree walk over to the golden egg and type "TAKE EGG" after you have it make your way back to the ground.) ------------------------------------- --------------- 5. SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FREIND ------------------------------------- --------------- You stand up as you begin to wander, hmmm you think to yourself, what would being a king be like, would it be grand? would it be hard? would you get respect or hate. You walk over to the biggest rock you see to have a seat and to clear your head for a long journey. you sit on the rock and instantly fall as the rock rolls. Hey you yell out as you stumble to your feet. You look at the rock and begin to walk forward only to fall face first into the ground. What in the great name of our land you yell out as you get back on your feet. You look to see what triped you, and to your suprize you triped into a hole. I wonder whats inside this you say as you put your hand in. you take out a dagger. Hey you say out loud, what luck i will need this. You look at it for a second and connect it to your belt. You sit down by the hole in hopes to clear your mind. (o.k. head straight down from the tree you climed and you should see a rock. stand in front of it and type "MOVE ROCK" then stand in front of the hole the rock reveals and type "LOOK INSIDE HOLE" it should say you see a dagger than type "TAKE DAGGER") ------------------------------------- --------------- 6. HELLO IM YOUR FAIRY GODMOTHER ------------------------------------- --------------- You stand up after you clear your head, its going to be hard to concentrate on this quest if i keep thinking about this you think to yourself, you continue traveling until you see something. You blink a few times to double check that this isn't an illusion. you see a woman, a woman with a wand and she spoke to you. Uh good day m'lady who are you? The woman smiles as she gives you a spell. My child do not be a fool, i am your fairy godmother. Then as quick as this meeting took place it was over. Strange you say to yourself as you continue on your journey taking the spell only as a peace offering. but what could be so dangerous I need my fairy godmothers help you think to yourself. (when you get the dagger head up to the big tree you climbed, now keep heading right about two times she should be there, if not leave and comeback. she should give you a spell and then leave. and then you should leave as well.) -----------------------------
