On the trail of Gabrielle
After getting past the welcoming committee, Xena must now confront King Valarian's soldiers. His army is known as gang of vicious thugs. The king has placed a bounty on Xena's head, and all are anxious to claim it!
Sketch
: The only way to King Valarian's castle is via a shaky bridge, but this thing's being guarded by an angry trole. To scare him off, Xena must lure a hive of bees near him (after breaking through some malicious soldiers...). The bees will kill the trole for Xena.Walkthrough: Kill the two soldiers ahead, trying to avoid the archers arrows in the meantime. He can be taken care of by your Chakram. Continue along the path. Four soldiers in total will cross it. While trying to kill them, jump over to the right, on a green, slightly higher patch. Grab the health power-up here. From here you can take out the soldiers with the Chakram, without getting hit yourself! Pretty sneaky, eh? (Try luring all four soldiers near the patch and then, shoot from it. This will save you some health.) Ahead of the path, near a sign, an archer is shooting you, from a higher area, whom you can probably take care of from your patch. When he's dead, continue along the path and climb up the higher area. Get the health power-up there, kill the incoming soldier. Further by the path, there's a little hill carrying scroll#1 and a health power-up. You can also kill the archer lurking behind a tree on another hill from here. Remember this spot. (If you feel like being cruel today; hitting the cows on the hills will make them moo in pain. Hey come on, don't you like animals? Leave the alone ;-)) You can take either way of the road now to continue your quest. But for getting an extra pick-up, take the one in the far corner and get the Super Chakram behind a bush. Continue the path along the corner, collecting a health power-up along the road. In total, twelve soldiers will come along, in different groups. You might want to use your Super Chakram here. After you've taken care of them, go to the hill where there was an archer (whom you shot from the hill where you got scroll#1). There's a health power-up there, as well as a Hand of Zeus hidden in a bush. Go up the path leading left to a Y-intersection (you'll find a pair of signs here). Take the fork on the right side.. Kill the two soldiers and take out the two archers nesting by the tree on a higher hill ahead. Now comes the fun. Look at the tree growing close to the sign. After getting the health power-up beside it, aim your Chakram at the beehive hanging from it and run back to the Y-intersection. (Don't waste time or the bees will keep stinging you.) Take the other fork of the road this time. You'll be able to spot the big fat trole guarding the bridge ahead. Go close to him but back out before he strikes you with his club. This will lure the bees to sting him. Mr. Scaredycat Trole is afraid of bees, so he'll fall off the bridge. Hurrah, he's dead! Before you go near that bridge, get scroll#2 by your left (behind the high tree). Now run over the bridge before it breaks under your weight (guess Xena is heavier than she looks) to end the level.
