Find the leader and defeat him. Place statue on the stand.
Put glove on the hand print on the wall to pass.
There are 2 ways to go near the entrance inside the caverns.
Use lightning spell on those bugs...before they get you!
Mist of Doom spell is here.
Activate and replicate:
You must trap a lightning creature in each of the three spaces.
Once you have done that you can go in and use the activate and
replicate machine. Choose your favorite because after all that
work you only get to duplicate ONCE. You can chase them around
with the glove...it will cast the hand of fate spell. It is
easier said than done....you have been warned!!

when you are finished.

This is the basement to Cimmeria Castle.
The key is to the teleport room to take you back to the leader.
The Xeobs is in s.e. corner. Knowles is west side mid-to south.
You must kill all or you will be sent back to complete.
You are given cube and other items when completed and sent back.
Nathanial's key is here.
KEEP THE DIAMOND!!!
Page 8:
Dungeon (continued):
Chests:
If you do not have high rogue skills you will not be able to get
inside of some of the chests! My first thought was that not all
were chests since they did not show up on the map. But I was
able to open them if I had high rogue skills. In other cases
when I had low rogue skills I was even teleported somewhere else.
May depend on the version...whether you have upgraded to v1.11.
Hints and General Notes:
Ruby and Shard are the ONLY way of opposing the Nether mask.
Scotia has the Nether mask.
You will need FOUR special trophies:
1. Humanoid: level 3...the sum must be correct.
2. Unicorn: level 2....middle east wall behind locked door.
3. Cobra: level 1....n.e. corner
4. Dragon: level 1...in room with no map in s.e. corner.
If you have version 1.05 of the game you are able to equip the
vaelan cube as a weapon and it will make another one every time
you use it as a weapon.
Also it seems you can go to defeat Scotia before you have saved
Richard......
YOU MUST FREE RICHARD BEFORE YOU GO TO DEFEAT SCOTIA.
YOU NEED HIS RING TO DEFEAT HER!!!!
There is a Bezel cup that acts strange on a character...it turns
him into a zombie. If you have the problem you are best to just
leave the cup and forget it. I am not sure where I found it. I
did not find this problem with the upgraded version...but there
again I might not have used it when I upgraded to that version.
You can always feed it to the head in the swamp for 60 crowns!!
You need to work on rogue and mage skills....you will need those
later in the game. It is one of the things you find out when it
is too late. The Grand axe "master" will increase rogue skills
by +1 and the Jade necklace will increase rogue skills by +1. I
think I found the "master" axe in the dungeon. Also shooting
bows will increase your rogue skills. If used throughout the
game, your rogue skills will be high by the time you get to the
dungeon and the Cimmeria castle. Use the fireball sticks in the
Urbish mines to increase your mage skills early in the game....it
will help you out at the end!!
Page 9:
Cimmeria Castle:
Level 1:
Cobra statue is in n.e. corner.
Use the diamond to free Dawn.
Use the vaelan cube or emerald swords on ghosts.
The teleport will send you to the other side of the first floor.
Throw something at the buttons behind the gates to get inside.
There is a nice sword in one of them.
The room that takes your map:
Pull the first 3 levers on your way inside.
You will be teleported to the center of the room.
Your compass does work...after it stops spinning around.
You need to cover 4 plates that are in the 4 corners of the room.
It is best to leave the s.e. corner for last.
The dragon statue and the stairs are in the s.e. corner...and you
will get you map when you get to the stairs.
Be ready for the ghosts.
Level 2:
Noir key: is to the teleport room. It take you to a passage that
will take you to level 3.
Adder key: is to the room in the n.e. corner. There is a chest
in there and a monster. You will need high rogue skills to open
the chest inside.
Unicorn statue: is behind locked door on east side of level
about middle. You will need high rogue skills to get inside.
Richard's key: it is by his door. You can shoot (or throw
something) the lever over the pit and go through the teleporter
to get the key. You will need to leave something inside the
niche or you will fall through the pit.
Richard's Room:
Place statues and watch the way the beams of light are going and
follow that line. Then place keys on corners. Now the elixir.
1. Cobra 1. Dawn 2. Geron
2. Humanoid
3. Dragon 3. Nathanial 4. Paulson
4. Unicorn
Remember that Scotia can change her appearance....she will try to
get Dawn's key in the forest!!!! Remember the introduction.
There is another key in the castle if you gave it to her.
Page 10:
Castle Cimmeria:
Level 3:
The sum must be correct: 1 + 1 = 2
You will need to push some buttons to the west before you are
allowed inside. Once inside you push a button to expose the
Humanoid statue in the niche. Place something in the niche and
push the other button to get out.
If you gave Dawn's key to Scotia in the forest you will need to
close the door behind you to get it off of the floor.
Leave items here: leave a couple of each item under the sign and
you can get the key. You can also pick up the items on the way
out. You will have the dull key.
Dull key: opens chest with silver key inside.
Death key: opens chest.
Oily key: opens chest.
Gold and Silver keys: the keys you need to get to Scotia.
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE FREED RICHARD BEFORE YOU GO INSIDE TO DEFEAT
SCOTIA!!!!
Scotia: The battle. You must click the ring and the necklace
together to have the whole truth. When Scotia is changing you
can keep her from changing by clicking the truth on her. You can
then defeat her in her natural state....you might want to save
some Aces to use on her....mist of doom...or death stick from
basement of White Tower.
The List:
This is not a complete list of things to do or items used but it
will get you through the game. I have tried to answer most of
the questions that I know people have about the game or items. I
look forward to any more information to update this list as
needed....feel free to contact me.

(* ... ) - мои комментаpии в тексте пеpевода.
-----------------------------
Hе пеpеведены имена и названия, а также указаны некотоpые english
words, упоминаемые в игpе.
Выбоp пеpсонажей
После мультипликационной заставки появляются четыpе пеpсонажа. Клик-
ните мышкой на поpтpете пеpсонажа, котоpым Вы хотите начать игpу.
Ak' Shel "Мой вид испугал Вас? Магия сильна сpеди моего наpода. Может
я не так силен, как остальные, но я намного лучше знаю магические закли-
нания этой стpаны."
Michael "Hе ищите здесь дуpаков. Сила есть сила. Довеpяйте пpежде
всего своим инстинктам. Я лучший боец в этой тусовке - в натуpе !"
Kieran "Сила, магия... что в этом хоpошего, если вы не можете увеp-
нуться от удаpа? Я быстpый! Ловкий! Если вы хотите победить в этом пpик-
лючении быстpее, выбиpайте меня."
Conrad "Я абсолютный чемпион для вашего дела. Пpи всех опасностях
этой стpаны вам понадобится кто-нибудь такой унивеpсальный, как я."
Экpан игpы
Тpехмеpное изобpажение
Это "Окно" в стpану пpиключений. (* далее: Окно)
Взять пpедмет
Чтобы взять пpедмет из Окна или инвентаpной линии укажите куpсоpом
мыши на пpедмет и кликните левой кнопкой.
Бpосить пpедмет
Взятый пpедмет может быть бpошен, если кликнуть им в веpхней тpети
Окна.
Положить пpедмет
Пpедмет может быть положен в Окно, если кликнуть им в нижней тpети
Окна.
Использовать пpедмет
Для употpебления или использования пpедмета его надо взять и кликнуть
им на поpтpете того пеpсонажа, котоpый его использует. Чтобы выпить ле-
каpство, возьмите его и кликните пpавой кнопкой на поpтpете пеpсонажа.
Исключение составляют пpедметы вооpужения - см. главу "Сpажения" для
уточнения.
Исследование теppитоpии
Кликнув на пpедмете, декоpации или укpашении в Окне можно ценные на-
меки или скpытые вещи. Декоpации, каpтины и двеpи - некотоpые пpимеpы в
Gladstone Keep, котоpые вы можете исследовать подобным обpазом. Будьте
увеpены, что вы полностью исследовали теppитоpию на пpедмет ключей и по-
теpянных сокpовищ!
Каpты стpаны
Однажды пpиобpетя магический атлас, вы можете использовать его опpе-
деления своего местонахождения. Когда вы найдете атлас, кликните на нем.
Появится каpта pайона, в котоpом вы находитесь. Ваше положение бутет от-
мечено меpцающей стpелкой. Все исследованные вами области будут показаны
на каpте. Атлас имеет две стpелки. Кликнув на левой стpелке вы увидите
пpедыдущую каpту, кликнув на пpавой - следующую. Кликнув на Exit (* вы-
ход) вы веpнетесь к игpе.
Поиск пути в темноте
Подземелья и пещеpы часто темны. Это может затpуднить исследование.
Вскоpе вы должны обнаpужить фонаpь. Он автоматически включается, когда
вы попадаете в темную область. Фонаpь потpебляет масло, и когда оно за-
кончится, фонаpь будет тустнеть. Вы должны найти флаконы с маслом. Клик-
нув на фонаpе вы узнаете, как много масла осталось.
Кошелек с деньгами
Сеpебpяные "crown" - стандаpтная валюта в Gladstone.
Поpтpеты пеpсонажей
Поpтpеты вашей компании находятся чуть ниже Окна.
Кликнув на поpтpете пеpсонажа левой кнопкой вы увидите его подpобнее.
Hа экpане пеpсонажа будут пpедставлены его снаpяжение, уpовень масте-
pства и способности.
Две кнопки спpава от поpтpета - для использования оpужия, находящего-
ся в pуках пеpсонажа, и магических заклинаний. Кликнув на одну из этих
кнопок выполняется ожидаемое действие, после чего кнопка "меpкнет" -пеp-
сонаж восстанавливает силы для следующего удаpа. Кликнув на кнопку магии
пеpсонаж выполняет заклинание, выбpанное в магической книге. Вы можете
выбpать, насколько сильным будет действие этого заклинания.
Две цветных полосы спpава от поpтpета инфоpимиpуют о состоянии здоp-
овья и магии у пеpсонажа. Кликнув на них, вы узнаете числовое значение.
Экpан пеpсонажа
Снаpяжение
Для снаpяжения пеpсонажа поместите пpедмет на соответствующее ему
место экpана пеpсонажа. Снаpяжение оказывает влияние на способности пеp-
сонажа. Щиты, доспехи, pубашки, ботинки, шлемы и дpугие подобные пpедме-
ты увеличивают защиту пеpсонажа. Оpужие увеличивает его мощь.
Индикатоp способности
Этот индикатоp отpажает скpытую силу, повышающую действенность снаpя-
жения. Скpытые возможности pазличаются у pазных пеpсонажей. Когда у пеp-
сонажа нет ни защиты, ни оpужия, здесь указываются его исходные значе-
ния. Пpи изменении снаpяжения эти значения будут соответственно изме-
няться.
Мощь опpеделяет величину поpажения пpотивнику пpи использовании кноп-
ки оpужия. Hекотоpое оpужие наносит большее повpеждение, некотоpое явля-
ется магическим, некотоpое имеет скpытые возможности. Экспеpиментиpуйте
с pазличным вооpужением для получения лучшего pезультата.
Защита опpеделяет способность пеpсонажа пpотивостоять повpеждениям и
атакам пpотивника. Это комбинация pеальной ловкости пеpсонажа и его за-
щитного снаpяжения. Магические доспехи, укpашения и некотоpое вооpужение
также влияют на защиту.
Уpовень мастеpства
Такие способности пеpсонажей, как Fighter, Rogue и Mage (* Боец, Плут
и Маг соотв.) отpажаются на этом индикатоpе. Линейка показывает, как
много осталось пеpсонажу до достижения следующего уpовня мастеpства. В
начале игpы все категоpии имеют минимально возможные значения.
Способность Бойца опpеделяет насколько эффективен этот пеpсонаж в
сpажении с помощью оpужия. В опасных местах стpаны замечательная возмож-
ность увеличить это значение в битве.
Способность Плута опpеделяет способность пеpсонажа откpывать замки и
пользоваться луком или метательным оpужием. Hа пpактике, чем чаще пеpсо-
наж откpывает замки и пользуется луком, тем быстpее pастет его уpовень
Плута. Пеpсонаж с высоким уpовнем Плута также полезен для опpеделения
ловушек и скpытых пpедметов.
Способность Мага опpеделяет возможность пеpсонажа использовать маги-
ческие заклинания. Пpи повышении этого уpовня пеpсонаж может пользовать-
ся большим количеством заклинаний и более быстpо. Hахождение магических
свитков и использование магических пpедметов повышает уpовень Мага.
Повышение мастеpства
Измеpительная полоска для каждой способности показывает, сколько еще
осталось до пpиобpетения следующего уpовня. Для этого тpебуется опыт.
Когда пеpсонаж только один все действия, повышающие опыт, действуют
на него. Если пеpсонажей больше, чем один, кликните на его поpтpете, или
кнопках, чтобы сделать его активным пеpсонажем, что индициpуется pамкой
вокpуг его поpтpета. Тепеpь его способности будут использоваться. К пpи-
меpу, когда вы откpываете замок, вы пpименяете способность Плута актив-
ного пеpсонажа. Для большего успеха кликните пеpед этим на поpтpете пеp-
сонажа с большей способностью Плута.
Символы состояния
Здесь вы можете увидеть символы, означающие, что пеpсонаж отpавлен
ядом, спит или оглушен.
Яд. Отpавленный пеpсонаж становится все более больным на вид, его
здоpовье постепенно убывает до полной потеpи сознания. Используйте
ginseng (* тpава такая, кажется) или заклинание Heal (* здоpовье) для
остановки болезни. (* иногда лучше позволить ему сдохнуть а потом Heal).
Сон. Hеестественный сон пеpсонажа может быть вызван усыпляющим газом,
или магией. Чеpез некотоpое вpемя он пpоснется.
Оглушение (* паpалич ?). Оглушенный пеpсонаж не может сpажаться, его
кнопки действий неактивны, потому что он восстанавливает силы после на-
несенного ему удаpа. Этот эффект вpеменный, если пеpсонаж не пpодолжает
получать удаpы. В этом случае лучше pвать когти, чтобы не склеить ласты
(* вольный пеpевод). И быстpее !
Сpажения
Сpажения в игpе пpоизводятся в pеальном вpемени. Монстpы не будут
ждать пока вы pешите что делать. Сpажайтесь или бегите!
Атака. Чтобы атаковать монстpа, кликните на боевой кнопке пеpсонажа.
Этот пеpсонаж пpоизведет удаp находящимся у него в pуках оpужием. Пока
силы восстанавливаются, кнопки неактивны и вы не можете в это вpемя
пользоваться оpужием. Вы можете также пользоваться магией. Это польшая
помощь пpи боpьбе с pазличными тpудностями.
Повpеждения. Если ваша атака успешна, число, появившееся на кнопке
оpужия, покажет уpовень повpеждения, нанесенный пpотивнику. Эта величина
опpеделяется оpужием пеpсонажа и его мощью. То же пpавило используется
когда пpотивник атакует вас. Если его удаp оказался эффективным, число
на поpтpете пеpсонажа покажет величину повpеждения, нанесенного ему. Со-
ответственно уменьшится индикатоp его здоpовья.
Повpеждения и восстановление
Линейка здоpовья уменьшается пpи получении пеpсонажем повpеждений.
Если полоска стала кpасной, этот пеpсонаж в сеpьезной опасности. Еще
удаp - и ему каюк. Если все пеpсонажи сыгpают в ящик подобным обpазом,
игpа закончится. Когда пеpсонаж в ауте, он не может восстановить силы
отдыхом, вы должны использовать aloe, ginseng (* тpавки), salve (* пузы-
pек) или магию для его восстановления.
Отдых. Для отдыха кликните на кнопке отдыха (* zzz). Пpи этом у пеp-
сонажей восстанавливается здоpовье и магия. Если отдых пpоизводится в
небезопасном месте, пpиближение монстpа пpеpвет отдых.
Медицина. Может быть использована в любое вpемя, даже в пpоцессе бит-
вы. Различные медикаменты имеют pазную силу и эффект может быть pазным,
но любое медицинское сpедство может быть использовано для повышения здо-
pовья. Aloe имеет наименьшую силу, Salve действует намного сильнее.
Ginseng - специальное лекаpство, т.к. оно лечит яд.
Вооpужение. Каждое оpужие влияет на мощь и защиту по pазному. Для
битвы есть тpи типа оpужия: pежущее, бьющее и колющее. В частности, ког-
да вы бьетесь со стойким пpотивником, обpатите внимание на pазличие меж-
ду остpым и тупым оpужием. Пpотивники с необычно кpепкой шкуpой, такие
как гигантские ящеpицы в Southlands, защищены от остpого оpужия. В этом
случае более эффективна blunt mace (* дубинка).
Доспехи. Вы можете намного увеличить защиту пеpсонажа, снаpядив его
доспехами. Чем большую защиту он имеет, тем тpуднее пpотивнику пpичинить
ему вpед.
Магия.
Выбоp заклинаний. Пеpед получением магической книги (* spell book) вы
можете пользоваться боевым заклинанием Spark (* искpа), кликнув кнопку
магии и выбpав силу действия магии. Для выбоpа заклинания из магической
книги кликните на его названии. Затем кликните на кнопке магии пеpсона-
жа, котоpый будет ее использовать и выбеpите силу действия магии. Чем
больше сила, тем больше тpебуется магии (см. линейку индикатоpа магии),
и тем большее повpеждение может быть нанесено пpотивнику.
Магическая книга. Со вpеменем вы пpиобpетете (* найдете?) магическую
книгу. Все пеpсонажи могут пользоваться заклинаниями, записанными в ней.
Выбpанное заклинание выделено кpасным цветом. Для выбоpа дpугого кликни-
те на его названии левой кнопкой.
Магия. Количество магии у пеpсонажа зависит от величины его способ-
ности мага. Пpи увеличении величины способности увеличивается количество
магии. Индикатоp магии показывает количество магии у пеpсонажа.
Магические свитки. Повсюду на пpотяжении игpы вы будете находить
свитки с заклинаниями. Чтобы добавить свиток в магическую книгу, возьми-
те его и кликните пpавой кнопкой на поpтpете пеpсонажа.
Покупка/пpодажа
Покупка. В магазине кликните на вещи, котоpую хотите купить. Если эта
вещь пpодается, владелец назовет цену. Когда вещь куплена, деньги авто-
матически вычитаются из кошелька и вещь (* не всегда) помещается и ин-
вентаpную полосу.
Пpодажа. Большинство магазинов могут покупать вещи. Для пpодажи возь-
мите пpедмет и кликните им в Окне.

игp, будет доступна только кнопка возвpата в основное меню.
Сохpанение игpы. Кликнув на этой кнопке вы увидите список записанных
pанее игp. Если у вас еще нет записанных игp, доступа только кнопка
[Empty Slot] (* свободное место). Кликнув на имени записанной игpы, вы
замените ее не текущую. Ликнув на [Empty Slot] вы запишите новую игpу,
пpедваpительно дав ей имя. ЗАМЕЧАHИЕ: Если [Empty Slot] не пpисутствует,
значит на диске нет места для сохpанения новой игpы.
Удаление игpы. Кликните на этой кнопке и вы увидите список сохpанен-
ных игp. Кликните на описании игpы, котоpую вы хотите удалить. Будьте
остоpожны! Если у вас еще нет записанных игp, будет доступна только
кнопка возвpата в основное меню.

optional, but the cat-creatures have some equiment. Weigh down plate 7 to
stop the dagger shooter in the wall.
NOTE: The map shows it as if there was no connection between the place

for the Ruby of Truth, simply offer anything. He will quest you for the
Ceremonial Bronze Helmet. Accept the quest.

for the ingredients. Keep them, you will need them. Now go to the Urbish
MINES
NOTE: IF YOU HAVE DONE THE URBISH MINES BEFORE YOU TALKED TO DAWN, SHE

SECOND ONE YOU DO WILL GIVE IT TO YOU. IN THIS SOLVE, THE SECOND ONE THAT
IS DONE IS PAULSON IN THE MINES.

at location 3. Before you leave the screen, take the pick to the left of

You will appear at position 1. Pushing the buttons at positions 3 and 4
make the northern walls disappear. However, there is only optional stuff

If you turn all four wheels around the spinner, it will be turned off.
Use the pickaxe to clear the rockfalls at the locations marked 6. At
location 7, click on the bones and they will come to life. After they

obtain yellow key. Use the Dark gauntlet on palm print at 17 to open door,
take this passage all the way back. Use yellow key at location 18.
Make your way back to location 4, this time use the Dark Gauntlet on
the palm print on the northern wall.
Follow this sequence through the secret wall maze:
ABCD
At location 20, use the Dark Gauntlet to open door ahead of you. In room
21 after killing one of the enemy knights you will find a blue key. Use it
on the chest at location 22 to get small key.
To get back go through the secret wall and use the small key on the lock
at 19. The door should now open. Enter within. You will be requested
to destroy one of the two races, doesn't matter which one you pick, but
the Knowles are easier to defeat, so its suggested that you take the
northern teleportal.
DUNGEONS
Get the copper key at location 1. At location 2 push button to make the
wall disappear, and get the Nathaniel's key from the niche at location 3.
Get the gold key at location 4. Pick the chest at location 5 to obtain
a diamond that can be used to free Dawn.
the teleportal at location 6 will take you back to Catwalk Caverns if
you want to go back. At location 7 use copper key to open door.
At location if you have killed all the enemies in the dungeon, you
will be rewarded with items and skills. However, a quicker way
is to simply attack the three creatures. They are easy, and will save
you a lot of time.
After defeating them, be sure to pick up Knowles key and Vaelan's Cube.
Use the Knowles key at 9 to open door, and go up at location 10.
CASTLE CIMMERIA LEVEL 1
HINT: At the grates (location 4) you can open them by shooting through
with a missile weapon. This will give you a very good weapon.
At location 1 you may use the diamond on crystal ball to free Dawn.
However, this is not necessary. When you step on location 2, you will
be cut off from both sides. Pull the tongue on southern wall to open
door. At location 3 push the northern button to open the niche, and
recover the cobra figurine from the niche. Jump down the pit.
DUNGEONS AGAIN
Go up the stairs at 10.

Push the button at location 5 to make teleportal appear. Step through.
Make your way to room 6. Don't be alarmed when your atlas disappears.
It is only temporary.
In this room there is a lot of spinners and pits, move carefully. Look
for 4 plates in the corners and weigh them down with items. After they
have been weighed down, go to location 7. Push the button to make
southern wall disappear, at location 8 push both buttons to make the
niche appear, recover Dragon figurine, and go through the secret wall
in the middle of the southern wall of room 6. Go up the stairs at 9.
CASTLE CIMMERIA LEVEL 2
Pull the tongue at 1 to open the door at 2. At 3 pick the chest for

Pick the lock at location 5 to open door, get the unicorn stauette
from niche at 6. Pull tongue at 10 to open wall ahead of you. At 11
the doors are tricky...pushing souther door's button opens the northern
door, and vice versa. Push the button at 12 to make a niche appear at 7.
Get the adder key from niche at 7. Use the adder key to open the door
at 8. In the chest at 9 lies the westwood stick ?!?!.
At 13 get the noir key from the niche. At location 14, there are 2 buttons.
The southern one will drop ya to the Dungeons while the eastern will
open the wall beside you. At 15 shoot or throw something over the pit
to the east. This will make a teleportal appear in the south corridor.
Throw an item through the teleportal to make the pit disappear. Step
through the teleportal. Get the carrion key from the niche at 16.
Jump down the pit right beside carrion key.
CASTLE CIMMERIA LEVEL 1 YET AGAIN
Take teleportal at 5, and go up the stairs at 9.
CASTLE CIMMERIA LEVEL 2 AGAIN
Make your way to location 17. Use the noir key in the keyhole, and
pull the tongue at 18. Next, step inside the door you have just
opened, and push the button on the southern wall at 19. You will
be teleported to location 20. Make your way to the stairs up.
CASTLE CIMMERIA LEVEL 3
At location 1 you may want to pick the chest for albarest "Eternity" and
Bastion plate. Make your way to the door in the south-west part of this
level. Open it and place items in the following locations:
5-suit of armor (any)
4-weapon (any)
3-medicine (must be an herb, not a potion)
2-jewellery (must be a ring or a necklace)
Now recover the dull key from the niche at 6.
Make your way to location 7. Push the button on the west wall at 7, to
make the wall disappear. Push the button at 8. This will make a wall
disappear at 9. Go to location 9, now:
-take a step to 11, take a step to 10, push the button on east wall
at 10. Move back to 11.
-recover Humanoid figurine from the niche. Place and item in the niche.
-move to 12, and push the button on the west wall at 12. Get out.
Go to location 13, push the button on north wall, and recover the gold
key from the niche in south wall.
Now, make your way to location 15, use the dull key on the chest, and get
the silver key out the chest. Go to 16, and fall down the pit.
CASTLE CIMMERIA LEVEL 2 YET AGAIN
Make your way to location 21. Use the carrion key to unlock this door.
Enter the room. Now:
Place the figurines in the following order:
Back of room
Unicorn Dragon
Cobra Humanoid
Front of room
Now place the keys (yellow pyramids) in the following order:
Back of shroud
Dawn's Geron's
Nathaniel's Paulson's
Front of shroud
Now apply the elixir to the king, and give him a weapon. You will receive
a shard of truth.
Exit the room.
Place the shard of truth in your inventory, and click on it with the
ruby of truth selected. You will merge the two to form the Whole Truth.
Take the teleportal at 19, and go upstairs again.
CASTLE CIMMERIA LEVEL 3 AGAIN
Go to location 18, and use silver key in the lock.
Go to location 19 and use the gold key in the lock.
Push the button on the door at 17. Go through the door, and head west.
Go to the door in the west. Open it and go inside. Scotia will attack
you. Now be sure to use the Whole Truth on her, while she's transforming.
That will make her get stuck in her real form, and thus you will be able
to kill her.
Tadaaa! Watch the ending sequence.

INTRODUCTION
This walkthrough gives explicit instructions on playing LANDS OF LORE (LOL) to
a successful conclusion. It does, however, assume you have read the Game
Manual and Lands of Lore Book and are familiar with the various methods of
controlling your characters' actions. You also have to be able to refer to the
maps referenced by this walkthrough.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
MAPS
Throughout the walkthrough, my directions depend on your being able to
reference certain maps. The maps were created by Patricia H. (CompuServe ID:
71700,2130.) and are contained in her hints file LANDMAP.ZIP, in the CRPG
Library (9) of the CompuServe Gamers Forum. I have also made them available
here. I assume you are able to display the maps using an application such as
Paint Shop Pro, while you are playing LOL via MS-Windows task switching.
Alternatively, you may make hard copies of the maps, by printing at about 200%
of scale. Patricia does not guarantee the maps are 100% complete. (I found
only very minor omissions and errors.) Most maps have several numbers on them.
I refer to these numbers throughout the walkthrough to guide you through each
zone.
Each zone you will encounter in LOL is listed below. Selecting a zone in the
list will display the corresponding map.

GENERAL
In the early stages of the walkthrough I will be more explicit than later on.
There are many items to pick up . . . far too many to mention . . . so I only
point out the very important items. Many doors and niches are opened by
operating obvious buttons or switches. Later on, I assume the player has the
hang of this and I do not tell you how to open the straightforward doors.
Similarly, as the game progresses you will become familiar with the different
zones and the important locations within them. So I only give you general
directions on traveling from one location to another across different zones.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUGGESTIONS
1. Start off each new zone by exploring without trying to solve the
puzzles, but killing all the monsters you come across. You should then
have most, if not all, of the zone mapped (by the automap feature) and
most, if not all, of the monsters eliminated. This will show you where all
the switches and buttons are that you may not have noticed and you will
have a much easier time solving the puzzles, without distractions.
2. When you come across acid spitting creatures, remove your armor or it
may be destroyed. You can recover, your armor will not!
3. Try customizing use of your three main characters to be each expert in
a particular skill; make one an expert fighter, one an expert mage and one
an expert rogue. But make sure they are all reasonable fighters and
magicians. I found Bacatta made the best rogue, while Paulson is a good
fighter. This means your main character should be strong in magic. This
may make Michael seem a poor choice, but it just means that selecting
Michael will make your party more dependent on fighting ability and much
less on magic.
4. When a character is poisoned let his health drop to nothing. Then use
the heal spell on him and he will no longer be poisoned.
5. A weapon's effectiveness depends on the creature you are fighting, so
try out different weapons.
6. Use the freeze spell on the rock monsters.
7. Poison gas areas can not be avoided, but you can minimize the effects
by running through them.
8. Don't despair when you get to those really nasty places where the
monsters may defeat you far too easily. Save often and you will gradually
progress through White Tower Level 3 and Cimmeria Castle Dungeon.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
OPENING SCENES
A messenger races on horseback toward Gladstone Keep. The portcullis rises to
let the messenger enter. The messenger hands a scroll to Geron, who is talking
with King Richard. Scotia has uncovered the temple in the Urbish Mines, where
the nether mask is located. Scotia must be destroyed.
Scotia's creature finds the nether mask and delivers it to his mistress. She
destroys him and gloats over the pretty package. She now has the ability to
take on other forms.
King Richard summons his champion . . . you! You may pick one of four guises:
Kieran, Ak'shel, Michael or Conrad. This walkthrough will work with any of
these characters.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NORTHLANDS & SOUTHLANDS
GLADSTONE KEEP
Go to the Throne Room (4). Take note of your instructions. Go to Geron's
Office (2) to get the King's Writ. Go to the King's Library (3) opening the
lock with the key. Check the books. One of these books is the Magic Atlas (or
Automap). Don't leave before you have access to the Automap. Go to Victor's
Arms (5). Buy the mace, selling the dagger if you wish. Leave via (1) for the
Northlands Forest.
NORTHLANDS FOREST
Get some experience killing monsters before going too much further. You will
also find many useful weapons and other items in the woods, so pick them up.
Go to the Thugs' Hideout (5). Attack the thugs. When you have killed them
enter the cave.
THUGS' HIDEOUT
Open the wall using the lever. Pick up the lantern at (2). Press the button at
(3) and take the thugs' key. At (4) take the rock off the east pressure plate
and put it with another rock on the west pressure plate to open the wall. Walk
to the end of the hidden passage, placing another rock on the pressure plate,
and press all three buttons (north, south and west) to open the wall. Open the
chest at (5) with the thugs' key. Take the lock picks, bezel cup, salve and
coins. Return to the cave entrance at (1).
NORTHLANDS FOREST
Return to Gladstone Keep.
GLADSTONE KEEP
Go to Victor's Arms (5) and sell some of the arms you have picked up. You
should keep, or trade for, at least the best three items of every different
piece of equipment as you will have up to three different characters in your
party at anytime. Leave the keep via (1).
NORTHLANDS FOREST
Go to the Marina at (4). Hand over the King's Writ and you will travel to the
Southlands Forest.
SOUTHLANDS FOREST
Go to the Grey Eagle Inn at (2). Check out the back room and the guest will
give you the Compass. Then talk to the man with blond hair at the bar. When
you leave, Timothy will join your party. Equip him from your inventory. Visit
Buck's Skins at (3) to buy the boots. Then go to Roland's Manor at (4).
ROLAND'S MANOR
Go to the Fireplace at (3). Take and read the burnt scroll. Go to the hidden
niche at (4) and take the oil flasks and aloe. Go to (2). Save before tackling
the ogre. The best method to use here is to bluff and hope he falls for it and
leaves. Otherwise attack! Open the wall to reveal Sir Roland. Unlock his chest
with the key and take the coins and saber. Now you have enough money, return
to Buck's Skins at (3) and buy the bow and shield. Return to the forest at
(1).
SOUTHLANDS FOREST
Return to the Marina at (1)
NORTHLANDS FOREST
Go to Gladstone Keep at (1)
GLADSTONE KEEP
Place all of Timothy's equipment in the inventory. Return to the Throne Room
at (4). Witness the Scotia/Richard/Dawn scene. Notice the fallen cup. Notice
Scotia's threat to Dawn. Then note the configuration of the protective magical
shield surrounding Richard. Talk to the red haired man Paulson and he will
tell you that he is going to the Urbish Mines. Dawn will give you a Spell book
and Baccata will join your party in place of Timothy. Equip Baccata. Visit
Victor's Arms at (5) if you have equipment to sell. Leave the Keep via (1).
NORTHLANDS FOREST
It is a good idea to have two spare daggers with you before you enter the
Draracle's Cave at (2)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
DRARACLE'S CAVE
LEVEL 1
The gold switch will open a wall. Go to the three buttons at (2). Press each
of them and some of the pits will close. Go to (3), walking on quickly past
the pressure plate that opens the door, and placing a weight (rock) on the
pressure plate to disarm the trap. At (5) notice the broken wall. Return past
the trap and open the door by weighting down the pressure plate. Defeat the
monsters, enter their hideout and take what you need. Return to the pits and
jump down.
LEVEL 2
After your fall, take the sledgehammer from the eastern corner. Open the wall
with the button on the north wall. Go down to the pod room at (2). Rescue Lora
from the rightmost pod and equip her. Open the way out by pressing the button
on the east wall. Go up to level 1 via the trap door.
LEVEL 1
Go back to the broken wall at (5) and break it down using the sledgehammer.
Then break down the wall at (6). By now you should have killed the ratman
carrying the emerald eye in the (7) area. If not, seek him out and take the
emerald. When you reach the dead end, operate the switch to open the wall.
This will reveal a pit. Jump into the pit.
LEVEL 2
Go to the chest at (3) and unlock it with the lock picks. Here you will find
the sapphire eye. Open the door by pushing the button to the left of the door
at (4). Insert the emerald eye in the eastern dragon eye socket. Insert the
sapphire eye in the northern dragon eye socket.
You make take one of two paths at this point. To progress with the game you
need only play through one of the paths. You may skip either the Emerald Path
or the Sapphire Path, or return to the dragon eyes intersection after taking
one path so you can take the other.
SAPPHIRE PATH
Go north from the dragons eyes intersection. Open the chest at (5) with the
lock picks. Go to the chest at (6) passing through the secret wall, and open
it with the lock picks. In particular, here you will find a freeze spell
scroll and a silver goblet. (7) is a fireball trap . . . don't operate the
switch. Shoot or throw something at the button at (8) to close the pit and
take the worn key from the niche. Take the stairs down to level 3.
LEVEL 3
The keyhole at (1) opens with the worn key. There is another freeze spell
scroll in the secret niche at (3) but it is useless if you have already have
one. Return to (1) and walk over the pit at (4) (it is an illusion) and onto
the chest at (6). Pick up the iron key at (5), then operate the switch that
opens the wall. ( I didn't find a use for the iron key, so you can discard
it.) Go through the secret wall to the axe at (7). Return through the secret
wall and to the saber at (8).
EMERALD PATH
LEVEL 2
Go east from the dragons eyes intersection. Go to the niche at (5) via the
secret wall. Go to the pit at (7). Throw or shoot something at the button
across the pit and the pit will close. You can now take the coins and dagger
near the stairs.
Go to the niche and button at (8). The note reads "Dagger in . . . Dagger
out.". First put a dagger in the niche, then press the button. Operate the
gold horns and then push the button. Pick the lock with the lock picks, then
push the button. Put another dagger in the niche, then push the button and the
wall opens. Walk through the opening and smash the chest with the
sledgehammer. You will find, a helm, a freeze spell scroll and a jeweled
dagger.
Return to the pit at (7) and go down the stairs to level 3.
LEVEL 3
Go to the hidden niche and button at (1). Get the iron key at (2). (I didn't
find a use for this key so you may discard it.) Go to the pit at (3). It is an
illusion. Open the chest with the lock picks.
EMERALD AND SAPPHIRE PATHS JOIN
Go to the chest at (5, EMERALD PATH map), open with the lock picks or the iron
key from SAPPHIRE PATH (5).In particular, take the red key. Open the red lock
at (9, SAPPHIRE PATH map) with the red key. Go down the stairs to level 4.
LEVEL 4
Go to the chest at (4) and open it with the lock picks. Then walk toward (1).
Place weights on the pressure plates to turn off the fireball traps. When you
get to the dead end, operate the crooked brick to open the wall. Go to (1) and
open the chest with the lock picks. In particular, take the bezel ring and
wear it. The switch at (3) sort of controls the fireball traps. I couldn't
stop them, so kept having to heal my party after each zap! Collect the things
in the niche at (7). Then take the stairs up to level 3.
LEVEL 3
Place Lora's equipment in the inventory. Pick up the silver goblet or the
jeweled dagger before entering the cave. Walk into the alcove on the left and
place the "trinket" in the golden chest. The Draracle will give you a riddle
scroll which lists the ingredients for the elixir which will cure King
Richard. He also tells you that the elixir must be mixed in a tower. Lora
stays with the Draracle.
When you exit the Draracle's Lair you end up on level 2.
LEVEL 2
Walk on up to level 1.
LEVEL 1
Walk on, operating the switch to open the wall. Return to the exit to
Northlands Forest.
NORTHLANDS FOREST
On the way to Gladstone Keep you will encounter Timothy. Gladstone Keep has
fallen. You must make your way across Lake Dread to the Opinwood.
Head for Lake Dread at (3). Victor tells you that Dawn has crossed Lake Dread
and you are able to go across by the same boat.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
OPINWOOD FOREST
Find the Gorkha Swamp entrance at (1), then go and open the chest at (2) with
the lock picks. Then making your way through the secret walls find the
entrance at (6) for the Urbish Mines. Go to (7) and pick up the long sword and
at (8) get the green skull out of the gnarled tree. Visit the beggar at (3)
and give him some money. This act of charity will pay off later! Open the
chest at (9) with the lock picks. Here you will find the lightning spell
scroll. Finally visit the wagon at (4) but you won't be able prove to Droek
that you are comrades of Dawn yet. Return to the Gorkha Swamp entrance at (1)
and enter the swamp.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
GORKHA SWAMP
Note: Remember to run through the swamp gas areas but don't fall in the pits!
You probably have a very cluttered inventory right now and would appreciate
selling off some of the equipment you don't need. If you have a couple of free
slots visit the chest at (2) first. (If not, return to (2) later.) Open the
chest with the lock picks. Wear the Duble Ring.
Now go to the fletcher at (6) and sell your excess equipment. Remember to keep
enough, and the best you currently have, for three people.
Go to the Witch Doctor at (7). Have him translate the Riddle Scroll for you.
You may also buy some fireball wands here to help in your fight against the
Dark Army monsters.
In your inventory, you should have an empty flask. If so, collect some swamp
water in it. If not, do so when you have an empty flask.
Go to the chest at (3) and open it with the lock picks.
Now go to the Gorkha Chieftain at (4). Put all of your weapons in your
inventory on the Gorkha's guard's order. Continue on to (4). When you see the
Gorkha Chieftain, look at the necklace with the red stone. The chieftain will
offer to trade with you. Offer him anything from your inventory and he will
refuse but challenge you to find the Gorkha's brass ceremonial helmet which
has been stolen by the stickmen.
Re-equip your party with weapons. Go to the area at (9). You will have to
freeze many of the swamp pits to get past them. In this area, you should kill
a stickman and recover the ceremonial helmet from him. Go to (8) and pick up
the bow. Nearby, east of the pits is a blacksmith. You can buy and sell arms
here.
Now return to the Gorkha chieftain at (4). Hand over the brass ceremonial
helmet and receive the ruby of truth in exchange.
To complete exploration of the swamp, go to (5) and pick up the glint mail and
at (10) you will find the entrance to Upper Opinwood Forest.
Return to (1) and enter Opinwood Forest again.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
OPINWOOD FOREST
Visit Dawn at (4). Now you hold the Ruby of Truth, Dawn will talk with you.
Show her the riddle scroll and she will help translate it and give you some
empty flasks for the ingredients. (You only need two empty flasks altogether,
which you will fill later.) She will also give you her pyramid key.
Where next? Well remember Paulson was going to the Urbish Mines? It might be
an idea to have him join you and reinforce your party. So go to the Urbish
Mine entrance at (6).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
URBISH MINE
OFFICE LEVEL
Go to (2) and use the green skull several times on the giant slug. Pick up
your weapons. Go to (3) and you will notice that the mining offices provide
you with a short cut between Upper Opinwood Forest and Opinwood Forest.
Explore all the office drawers and filing cabinets to stock up on supplies and
you will also find a fireball spell scroll.
To get to (4), close the outer door in order to open the inner door. At (5)
there is a machine that needs fueling and repairing. The keyhole at (6) opens
with the lock picks. Talk to the clerk at (7). Take the pick axe and great
helm.
When you have thoroughly explored the offices, go down the stairs to level 1.
LEVEL 1
Open the silver keyhole at (1) with the silver key. Walk past the wheels at
(2) and push the button on the west wall to open a pit. Jump down the pit to
level 2.
LEVEL 2
Push the button and you will drop to level 3!
LEVEL 3
Take the silver key from the niche at (4) and open the silver lock at (7). The
note at (5) is a red herring! Cast fire balls at the nests at (6). Go through
the secret wall to (11).
Open the chest using the lock picks. Use the yellow jewel in the plate to open
the door to the mine car. You need to go to (13) so must take the mine car
straight on at the junction. Both levers should be up. Get in the mine car and
click to go straight on.
Operate the switch on the east wall to open the wall. Operate the switch on
the north wall to open the wall. Go to (13) and use the pick axe on the coal
seam. Put a piece of coal in your inventory. (This is fuel for the machine on
the office level at (4).)
Return to (11) via the mine car. This time you want to go right to (12) and
the stairs down. Set the left lever down and take the mine car to the right.
Pick the copper keyhole with the lock picks at (12) and go down the stairs to
level 4.
LEVEL 4
At the bottom of the stairs, push the button to make the teleport appear. Walk
into the teleport.
Keep one of the red hearts from the rock monsters. This is another ingredient
for the elixir.
Break though the rock pile at (2) with the pick axe. Search the bones at (1)
for a rusty key.
Go to (11) and get the gear from Hank's bones. This is needed to repair the
machine on the office level at (4).
Go to the teleport area to the east of the wheels. Take the teleport to the
stairs up to level 3.
LEVEL 3
Return via the mine car to the teleport at (3). Walk into the teleport and it
will take you to the office level.
OFFICE LEVEL
Go to the machine at (5). Place the coal in the machine and repair it with the
gear. Operate the lever.
Go down the stairs to level 1
LEVEL 1
Go to the wheels at (2). Set the south wheel so that the knob is down and the
north wheel so that the knob is up. Walk into the teleport and you will go to
level 2.
LEVEL 2
You will arrive in a part of level 2 you haven't seen before. You can move in
four different directions through secret walls that surround you.
First, go south, then west. Weight the pressure plate to open the niche. Take
mine key 4. Return to the room surrounded by secret walls.
Next, go west and unlock the silver keyhole with mine key 4. Go south. Notice
the stairs down at (7) and get the long sword at (13). Return to the room
surrounded by secret walls.
Next go north. Open the chests at (5) and (6) with the lock picks. Return to
the room surrounded by secret walls.
Next go east. First go to (10). I found running over the flaming pits was
easiest and healing your party when you get to (10). (I'm sure there is a way
of turning all the fire pits off by weighting the pressure plates somehow but
I didn't bother figuring this out.) At (10) there is a fireball wand. Now go
to (8), the smell of gas. Stand back a square or two, and cast a fireball into
the gas. This will release hordes of the blue electrical wispy creatures. I
found the best way to deal with these creatures was to run away and deal with
them one or two at a time, run away, heal, save, then seek them out. It took
quite a while to get them all. I used a combination of the green skull, long
sword, crossbow and the Gorkha's trident. When you finally get to the niche
beyond the gas smell, take mine key 5.
Return to (7) and go down stairs to level 3.
LEVEL 3
Keep turning until you are facing the button. press it. Now keep turning until
you are facing the niche. Take the shiny key. Keep turning until you are
facing the stairs. Go back up to level 2.
LEVEL 2
Go to (2) and open the keyhole with mine key 5. Take the stairs up to level 1.
LEVEL 1
You will be in a section of level 1 you haven't explored yet. Go to (3) and
take mine key 2 and an emerald blade. Go to (5). Close the pit by turning the
wheel. Get mine key 2 from the niche then drop down to level 2 via the pit.
Push the button and put a weight on the pressure plate. Walk into the
teleport. You will end up on the office level. Go down to level 1. Go to the
teleport that takes you to level 2. Go to the stairs up to level 1.
Open the silver keyhole at (9) with mine hey 2. Go to (6) through the secret
wall. Open the lock with mine key 2. At (7) you will find some weapons. Go
through the secret wall to get the chest at (8). Return to (9).
Turn the wheel to make a pit open. Drop down to level 2 via the pit.
LEVEL 2
Weight the pressure plate to keep the pits open. Drop down to level 3.
LEVEL 3
Kill the avian worms and nests with fireballs. Push the button to open the
wall. You will find a pick axe at (1) to use on the broken wall at (2). The
button will open a wall to the area at (7). From here go to the mine car at
(11). Take the mine car to the right. Go down the stairs to level 4.
LEVEL 4.
Take the teleport. Open the keyholes at (5) with the rusty and shiny keys in
the appropriate keyholes. Collect Paulson at (6) and take Paulson's key. Now
collect his armor, other equipment and mine key 4 at (7). Equip Paulson.
Go to the keyhole at (8). Unlock it with mine key 4. Walk into the north
teleport and you will go to the office level.
OFFICE LEVEL
Go to the Upper Opinwood by going north.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
UPPER OPINWOOD
You enter at (6). Collect the dagger at (7). Go to (4) and fill an empty flask
with honey from the hornet's nest. This is another ingredient of the elixir.
Next go to (3) and open the chest with the lock picks. The crossbow 'Valkyrie'
is a great weapon. Don't lose it! Now go to (2) and you will encounter Scotia.
If you are collecting too many weapons, go to (12), the Gorkha Swamp entrance,
sell your excess arms to the fletcher in the Gorkha Swamp. Return to Upper
Opinwood.
Next go to (10). Open the chest with the lock picks. The emerald blade is good
for killing wraiths. Now go to (11). Open the chest with lock picks. Put the
jade necklace on one of your characters to increase his rogue skills.
I also came across a worn key (I found no use for it.) after killing a
skeleton warrior in the north west of Upper Opinwood, south of Scotia's
barrier.
Now go back to (2) where Scotia has put her barrier to keep you out of her
way. Use the Vaelan's cube on the barrier a couple of times.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
YVEL WOODS
Go to (7). Here you will see that the Orc's have demolished the bridge to
Castle Cimmeria. Somewhere near (7) and (8) there is an orc you should kill as
he has another Vaelan's cube. Use the Vaelan's cube on the barrier at (3). Go
to (4) and open the chest with the lock picks.
Now go to (5), the entrance to Yvel City.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
YVEL CITY
You enter Yvel City at (1). Go to (2), enter the house and pick up the Ace of
Dominion. Then go to (3) and you will meet Victor again. Sell him any excess
equipment and buy the great sword. The sword is an excellent weapon.
Now go to (4) and pry the boards off the door. Enter the house. Pick up the
speckled key and the hand of fate spell scroll. Go next to (5) and take the
Dwarvish plate mail.
Next go to (6). This is Sadie's shop. Show her the riddle scroll and she will
give you the last ingredient for the elixir. Outside, you can drop the riddle
scroll. Now go to (16) and (17). Open both chests with the lock picks.
Now go to (19). Take the Ace of Oblivion. Now go to (14) and take the aegis
helm. Then go to (13) and get another aegis helm. Next go to (10) where there
is a crossbow. Go on to (11). Open the lock with the speckled key. In the
house there is a jade key (which only opens an empty house, so discard it) a
great helm, plate mail and a shield. Now go to (12). Pick the lock.
Visit the Yvel Council at (9). Not much here, except a hint that Richard is at
Castle Cimmeria.
You probably need to lighten your load by now. Visit the fletcher at (15)
and/or Victor at (3) to sell off some of your equipment.
Leave Yvel City via (1) and re-enter the Yvel Woods.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
YVEL WOODS
Go to the White Tower at (6).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHITE TOWER
LEVEL 1
Pick up mystic key from room (17). Open the chest at (12) with the lock picks.
Go to (16). Open lock with the mystic key. Enter room (15) and pick up the
mystic key.
Go to (6) and open the lock with the mystic key. An amazon between here and
(9) will drop another mystic key. Pick it up and open the lock with it near
(9). Press the button to the left of the gate and the gate will raise. Go to
(10). Let Lyle go free. Then open the hidden niche. Take the amber ring.
Go to (18) and put the amber ring in the niche. Enter room (19). Defeat Jana,
then take her mystic key. Collect the amber ring from the niche and wear it.
Go to the eastern stairs.
LEVEL 2
Go up and take the mystic key. Return downstairs and go up the western stairs.
Go to (1) and open the lock with the more silvery mystic key. Go to (8). Close
the outer door, push the button and take the mystic key from the niche.
Pick the lock outside room (7). Enter room (7), the pit room!
You probably have too much equipment again, so fall into a pit. You will land
in room (3) on level 1. Open the chest with the lock picks, then push the
button on the wall to open the door. Leave via (1) and enter the Yvel Woods.
Return to Yvel City (5) and go to Victor's at (3) and sell your excess
equipment. Return to the Yvel Woods (1) and return to the White Tower at (6).
Enter the White Tower.
LEVEL 1
To make more space in your inventory go to (11). Open the door with the
brighter of the mystic keys. Leave the four ingredients for elixir in this
room, not too near the altar. (I found I lost them if I was close to the
altar.) You can pick them up later when you are ready to make the elixir here.
You can also leave the two yellow pyramid keys here, but you must take them
with you when you leave the White Tower with the elixir.
Go up the western stairs to level 2.
LEVEL 2
The following sequence of events are harrowing and of questionable reward. I
suggest you go through it for the fun of it anyway!
Re-enter (7) the pit room. From the entry square, just past the door, do the
following: Go north, east twice, north twice and west twice. Take the mystic
key and push the button in the west wall. Now go east twice, south twice, west
and south twice. Press the button in the south wall. Use the mystic key, you
just found, to unlock the west door. Go, carefully, to the secret wall and go
through it. The long wall contains four switches. The first three you come to,
may turn off the seemingly endless supply of flying fireball chickens. The
fourth switch turns on the fireball cannon.
At (4) there is a helm. Now retrace your steps. Was it worth it?
Go to (2), the fireball room. (The fireball cannons fire only when you step on
to a square facing them.) Go to the north west niche and get the mystic key.
Go to (9). Use the brighter mystic key in the lock.
Go up the stairs to level 3.
LEVEL 3
NOTE: There are two (6)s on the map. I refer to the chest at (6) and the pit
at (6) to distinguish between them.
Heed the ghost's warning, but soldier on! The spirits are very bad here, but
can be beaten by luring them out . . . it is do-able! Go to (2), push the
button on the floor and get the mystic key. Now go to the lock at (3) and use
the mystic key you just found to open it. Open the chest at (4) with the lock
picks.
Open the switch at (5). Open the north door and go through the secret wall.
Open the chest at (6) with the lock picks. Now go to the pit at (6) and fall
through it to level 2.
LEVEL 2
You will find yourself in the minotaur's room (3). Defeat the minotaur and use
the horn as the key to open the west wall. Go to the stairs up to level 3.
LEVEL 3
Return to the pit at (6) and close it by pushing the button and shooting or
throwing something at the button beyond the pit. Open the chest at (7) with
lock picks. Go through the secret wall to (8). Open the chest with the lock
picks and, in particular, get a blue mystic key.
Go to (9). Use the non-blue mystic key to open the door. Take the ivory key
from the niche. The pressure plate at (10) allows you to get to the secret
wall. Go through the secret wall to find some more supplies.
Return to the stairs and go down to level 2. Then go down the stairs to level
1.
LEVEL 1
Open the lock at (13) with the ivory key. Go down the stairs to the basement.
BASEMENT
Put each of the four items moving around the central square at (1) in the one
of the four niches around the central square. Three of the niches are on the
inner walls, one is on an outer wall. Do not place the items in niches outside
the central square. Open the lock at (2) with the blue mystic key.
After you have supplied the password, the old lady will give you the crucible
of faith.
Collect the equipment from the niche on your way to the stairs up to level 1.
Try not to use the wand of death until your final confrontation with Scotia.
LEVEL 1
Go to the Altar de Blanca at (11). Place the crucible of faith on the altar
Pick up the ingredients for the elixir and place them in the crucible. Put the
crucible in your inventory. If you dropped anything else here, pick it up
before leaving.
If you want still more choices of equipment, you may return to level 3 and
enter the room at the door of faith (13). You can open only one of the chests.
Return to the Yvel Woods, (1) on level 1 and go to Yvel City at (5).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
YVEL CITY
Visit Victor at (3) to unload your excess equipment once again. Visit the
council at (9). Geron tells you to fetch Dawn, so you must return to the
Opinwood.
Leave the city at (1) and go to (1) on the Yvel Woods map. Scotia will appear
to you as you enter the Upper Opinwood in Dawn's form. Leave when you
encounter her. Go to the Urbish Mines at (6) on the Upper Opinwood Map. Next
go to (3) on the Urbish Mine map.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
OPINWOOD FOREST
Go to (4) in the Opinwood Forest. By the time you arrive, Droek's wagon has
been attacked and Dawn is not here. Return to Yvel City.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
YVEL CITY
Go to the Yvel Council at (9). Geron will tell you that the city militia has
fallen and the three of you are on your own to defend the city! Find
yourselves a cozy nook (such as right outside the Yvel Council house) where
you can only be attacked on one side and keep killing the members of the Dark
Army until the initial onslaught is over. Then you will have to seek out the
enemy. Keep killing the monsters and eventually, the Dark Army will retreat.
When the Dark Army has retreated, return to the Yvel Council at (9). Read the
note. Go to Bruno's Inn at (7). Go through the open door at the back of the
inn. Press the button on the north wall and the wall will open revealing a
cave. Go into the cave.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CATWALK CAVES
LEVEL 1
Go to (1) and kill Mylek, First Envoy of the Dark Path. Take Geron's key and
the dark gauntlet. Put the statuette on the pedestal (near to (1)). This will
open the east wall. The button on the south wall will open a niche. Use the
dark gauntlet in the hand impression on the west wall and the west wall will
open. Walk on until you reach hand impressions in the north and west walls.
Open both with the dark gauntlet.
Go west and make you way to (2). The button on the walls will get you past the
first set of pits. Activate the teleport by using weights and stepping on and
off the north pressure plate. The pressure plate toggles the teleport on and
off.
Now go the chest at (5) and open it with the lock picks. Here, in particular,
you will find the mist of doom spell scroll and a yellow key.
Next go to (4). To get the replicator to work you must herd one of the spark
creatures down each of three hallways. They will power the replicator. If you
don't need to replicate anything (you shouldn't need to) and are finding the
spark creatures a nuisance, you can kill them with the spark spell.
Now return to the two hand impressions adjacent to each other by continuing
clockwise round the map and take the north route. Make your way through the
secret wall and spinner area to (7). A dark army warrior will drop a blue key
when you kill him in this area. Use the key to open the chest at (8).
Go to the keyholes at (9) and open the left-hand lock with the yellow key and
the right-hand lock with the small key. Inside this room, you will meet the
Knowles and the Xeobs. They each want you to be their champion and wipe out
the other group. They will reward you generously should you succeed. There is
no getting out of this. Both groups are very difficult to kill but it can be
done with perseverance! However, when you find the key to, and location of,
your 'allies' headquarters you can turn on them and kill them . . . but no
reward! First, you must pick a side. The Knowles will reward you with
increased magic skills, while the Xeobs will increase your fighting skills.
Pick a side, then walk into the appropriate teleport.
LEVEL 2
The map is missing the section of level 2 you fall to from the southerly pits
on level 1.
There is nothing useful here. Either teleport up to level 1 or take the
stairs. The area where there is a teleport has a door and button. There is
something moving behind the door but I could not open the door.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CASTLE CIMMERIA
DUNGEON
You have teleported to the dungeon of Castle Cimmeria. Explore the entire
area. Try to find lone enemies or run away when you start getting weak to heal
somewhere in safety.
There are niches at (2) and (17). The copper key at (3) opens the door to the
teleport at (13) which takes you to the Knowles (if you are supporting them).
The gold key, at (15), is used to visit the Xeobs similarly, at (4). There are
chests with supplies at (6), (10), (14), (16) and (18). Make sure you get the
diamond in the chest at (10). There is a yellow key in the hidden niche at
(17) but I found no use for it.
When you either defeat the Knowles or the Xeobs you will get a key to the
castle and a Vaelan's cube. Use the key at (11). Go up the stairs to level 1.
LEVEL 1
Go to (2). The wall in front of the stairs down to the dungeon will close
behind you, but later you will be able to open it. At (2) you will find Dawn
in a crystal ball. Free her by using the diamond on the sphere. Dawn will
leave to get reinforcements.
Go to (4) and pick up the small key.
Go to (7), open the niche and take the cobra figurine. You will have to jump
into the pit to the dungeon. Return to the stairs up to Level 1. Open the wall
by pushing the button on the west wall.
Now go to (5). Push the button to make the teleport appear. Walk into the
teleport. You will find yourselves in the southern section of Level 1. Go to
(11) and do not flip any switches along the hallway. The teleports will take
you to the middle of area (13). Don't panic! You have lost your automap, but
it will return when you leave this area. This is a spin and pit area. Avoid
the pits and put weights on the pressure plates whenever you come across them.
There are two aims. The first is to get the dragon figurine from (12). The
second aim is to pass through the secret south wall to the stairs up to level
2. The compass will help you, but you must let it settle down.
Once you have found the dragon figurine and found the stairs, go up to level
2.
LEVEL 2
If you come across the niche at (2), do not put anything in it unless you want
to lose that item! Go to the chest at (3). It opens with the lock picks. Open
the niche at (6) and the chest at (7). Pick the lock at (9). Some players have
found that to pick this lock successfully you must use a character with at
least Rogue skill level 4. At (8) you will find a unicorn figurine. Go to the
wall at (12). Operating the button on the south wall will open the east wall.
Go to (16). Press the button on the east wall. Do not press the button on the
south wall. Go to (19). Shoot or throw something at the button across the pit.
Walk over the illusory pit to the south. The niche here contains the carrion
key. Take it. You now have to jump into the pit and retrace many of your
steps. This time go to (20) and get the noir key from the niche. Finally, go
to (10). Open the lock with the noir key and press the button inside the room.
This will activate the teleport.
You will be transported to a new part of level 2. Take the stairs up to level
3.
LEVEL 3
Explore as much of this level as possible without worrying about difficult
doors or chests. We will come to those later. The aim is to map all the easy
to get to places including and particularly that nasty area where the missiles
constantly bombard you. They won't hurt you much so walk around the building
here diligently and try not to fall down the pits!
Now go to (6). At first all you will find here is a plaque telling you "the
sum must be correct". Look at the automap. Do you see the sum "1 + 1 = 3"? You
must change the three to a two.
Go to (4). Push the button to make the wall move to the west. Follow the wall
and push the other button. If you look at the automap the sum should now be
correct and the way to (6) should be open. Don't fall down the pit here. Go to
(6) and take the human figurine from the niche. Put something you don't need
in the niche and push the buttons at both ends of the room. The wall should
open so that you can leave.
Go to (4) and jump down the pit to level 2.
LEVEL 2
Go to the lock at (17) with the carrion key and walk into the room at (18).
Here you will find King Richard. Put the four figurines on the pedestals as
follows to bend the light:
Humanoid: right front
Cobra: left front
Dragon: right back
Unicorn: left back
Now put a yellow pyramid key on each of the four corners of the shroud. The
game will help you put each key in the correct corner. Now apply the crucible
of faith (containing the elixir) to the King. Give the King a weapon.
OK, now you have to go back to level 3. Go to (10), teleport to the stairs
area and go up to level 3.
LEVEL 3
Go through the secret wall to the chest at (2). Open it with the lock picks.
Open the niche at (3) and take the gold key. Go to (11) and get the oily key.
Go to (9) and get the death key. Open the chest at (8) with the death key. Go
to (7) and open the chest with the oily key.
Go to (12). Read the instructions in each alcove and leave a suit of armor, a
weapon, a piece of jewelry (ring or necklace) and a salve or herb in each
appropriate alcove. The niche will open. Take the dull key. Then collect up
your pieces of equipment from the four alcoves.
Open the chest at (10) with the dull key. Take the silver key, in particular.
Go to (13). Open the keyholes by using the silver key on the left lock and the
gold key on the right lock. Push the button in between the two locks and the
wall will open.
Combine the ruby of truth and the shard of truth in the inventory to make the
whole truth!
Go to (14). Use the whole truth on Scotia as soon as she stops talking. (Use
the whole truth on her by clicking the right mouse button as you hold the
whole truth over your character.) Then use the death wand on her a few times.
This should do her in quite quickly! If you don't have the death wand, hack
her to pieces instead!
As Scotia dies she threatens her death will not save you from the wrath of the
dark forces. Back at Gladstone, you are congratulated and honored by the King,
Dawn and Geron.
Now sit back and reminisce at the parade of monsters . . . so you didn't kill
all of them! Don't forget Scotia's threat!
