(Click or tap on any clue to reveal the clue.)
How do I see underground? It's dark.
- You need a source of light. The lantern, perhaps? Perhaps not.
- If you've been to the castle, reflect on the problem for a while. If not, you need to get there before continuing.
- Experiment with the jar. And with the mirrors.
- Reread the description for the Rock Wall Room carefully.
- Blow a bubble mirror just inside the Rock Wall.
- The mirrors rotate, as if they were on pivots.
- From the secret doorway at Rock Wall: GO INSIDE. OPEN THE JAR. TAKE THE CIRCLET. BLOW A BUBBLE. TURN THE MIRROR TO THE SOUTH.
- Using a series of mirrors, you can reflect sunlight into any one of the Underground passageways.
Is there any way to stop the lucksuckers?
- Read The Lore and Legends of Quendor.
- HIT THE LUCKSUCKER with the best weapons you've got.
- Lucksuckers aren't affected by ordinary weapons.
- Good luck charms can forestall their attack.
- Try showing one of your good luck charms to a lucksucker.
- Throw a good luck charm at a lucksucker.
How do I deal with the lurking presences in the dark?
- You can't see them to fight them without Magick.
- Wearing the helmet will enable you to attack them normally.
- The grues are the toughest monsters in the game. You need to be well prepared to fight them.
- Protected plate mail and a honed elvish sword are the best weapons against the grues.
What is the shadow in the corner?
- It is unwise to speak of such things.
- It's an ur-grue. Consult The Lore and Legends of Quendor for all the terrifying details.
How do I deal with the shadow?
- Very carefully.
- The Lore and Legends of Quendor may shed some light on the matter.
- You need to shed some light on the shadow.
- Sunlight.
- Arrange some mirrors so that a beam of sunlight illuminates the Treasure Chamber. BLOW A BUBBLE in the Chamber. TURN THE MIRROR TO THE EAST.
I don't want to strangle baby grues! How do I survive the ur-grue's attack?
- Uh-oh. Looks as if all your compassion was sucked away. Nobody with an ounce of compassion could strangle a baby... not even a baby grue.
- You didn't accumulate enough compassion during the course of the story to survive the ur-grue's attack.
- There are three ways to gain compassion.
- Rescuing the minx. (Which you've probably already done.)
- Releasing the unicorn also gains compassion.
- The third way to gain compassion is to rescue the baby hungus by using the levitation wand.
Look at all that plunder! How do I bring it home?
- Don't you want to gloat over it first?
- Don't you want to SEARCH IT?
- Oh, my. What have we here?
- PICK UP THE COCONUT. And don't let it go!
- Congratulations.
