-Version History-
---

0.1 – 9/14/02 – This is the first release of this walkthrough. I’ve covered the 
game up until you leave Aleroth for the first time.


-Aleroth-

You start the game next to a bed. You can use this bed anytime you need to 
recover health and mana. Go up the ladder and go left and Joram will talk to 
you. He tells you that Aleroth’s leader, Mardaneus, has gone mad. He also tells 
you to take what you want from his house, so take him up on that offer. When 
you are done looting, go on outside the house and you will see a scene between 
Mardaneus and Lanilor, another healer. Take a look around town.


 -------------------------------
-Quest: Collect herbs for George-
 -------------------------------

When you first go inside George’s shop you’ll see him arguing with someone over 
a delivery. When you talk to George afterwards he asks you to get some Drudanae 
for him from Lanilor’s garden. Go to Lanilor’s garden and pick a stalk of 
Drudanae, and go back to George for a reward.


 ---------------------------------------
-Quest: Find a cure for Simon and Verlat--
 ---------------------------------------

Note: These are actually two separate quests, but since they are identical so 
they get rolled into one.

When you talk to Goemoe the lizardman or Otho the dwarf they tell you that they 
are caring for a sick soldier. They say that they need a healing gem to heal 
them, but they only have one gem available. The healers can’t decide on which 
soldier to use the gem on, so it’s up to you to heal them. Go to the healing 
shrine north of Goemoe’s house and ask for the last Healing Gem. Now, you could 
use that gem to heal one of the soldiers, but there is a way to save both. What 
you need is the Magic Mirror from an abandoned house on the north side of town. 
Take the mirror to any puddle (you should see your reflection on the ground) 
and drop it in. It should disappear, (if it doesn’t, try it again at a 
different spot) then place the Healing Gem at the same spot as the mirror. You 
should now have two Healing Gems, so go and talk to Simon and Verlat and give 
them a Healing Gem to heal them. When you heal both talk to Goemoe and he will 
train you in a level of Restoration.

Note: If you wait until after you cure Mardaneus’ insanity, the soldiers will 
die.


 -------------------------------------------------
-Quest: Rescue Lanilor the elf from his iicy prison-
 -------------------------------------------------

When you arrive outside Mordaneus’ house you will see Lanilor trying to help 
Mardaneus not be crazy, but fails miserably as Mardaneus thinks Lanilor is a 
demon and freezes him. Talk to Lanilor and he will ask you to convince 
Mardaneus to unfreeze him. Mardaneus’ door is locked, so talk to Lanilor and he 
will tell you to take the well.


-The Well-

Go down to the lower left hand room. There is a locked door there, but the key 
is just sitting there on a crate in the same room. Continue on and go up the 
ladder into Mardaneus’ house.


-Mardaneus’ House-

When you get inside you will be accosted by the mad mad Mardaneus. You will 
(eventually) convince him to unfreeze Lanilor. The freshly thawed Lanilor will 
tell you about the catacombs beneath  town.


 --------------------------------
-Quest: Restore Mardaneus’ sanity-
 --------------------------------

To enter the catacombs, go to the statue in the center of town surrounded by 
four dragon statues. Click on each of the dragon statues until they all face 
north. (They lock into place when they reach the correct position.) When all 
four are positioned, the stairs down to the catacombs are opened. When you 
first try to enter Lanilor stop you and give you a teleporter stone.


 -----------------------------------------
-Quest: Find the second teleporter pyramiid-
 -----------------------------------------

Lanilor will give you a single teleport stone and tell you if you can find its 
twin you can use them to teleport between the two. Unfortunately he has no idea 
where the other one is. You can find it on the fourth floor of the Catacombs. 
To use them just drop both on the ground and click on one stone and you get 
teleported to the other. To pick up a stone when it’s on the ground, just open 
your inventory then click and drag the stone into your inventory. AND DON’T 
FORGET WHERE YOU PLACED THEM!


-Catacombs: First Level-

In the room below the starting area throw the lever on the upper wall to unlock 
the door. Follow the hallway to the end and throw another lever to unlock the 
nearby door. Go through the door and clean out all the skeletons in this room. 
Continue on and clean out the next room and the one after that. Grab the magic 
orb from the next room then continue on and grab the sapphire key. Continue 
down the next room until you come to a fork in the road, the locked door to the 
left needs the sapphire key and leads back to the first hallway. Both left and 
down lead to the same place, but the left fork has another magic orb. Continue 
down and left to the next room and grab the final orb. In this room if you 
light the 5 candles around the pentagram a skeleton will attack you. Throw the 
lever to unlock the door and continue on. In the next room you find a group of 
orcs. They are reasonably friendly (i.e. they don’t try to disembowel you on 
sight) and their leader, Smiruk even has a quest for you. (see Quest: Retrieve 
the magic axe called Slasher, below) The ladder in the room leads to the middle 
of an orc camp, you DON’T want to go there, so go down the hallway and to the 
right, the right fork leads to a dead end, and the lower path leads to an 
intresting room where you can get your self your very own zombie bodyguard (see 
Gregar Brock, below.) Take the upper path and in the next room place one Magic 
orb in center of each of the three pentagrams to open up a portal. Go through 
the portal and in the next room take the stairs down to the next level. The 
stairs up create a shortcut to town.


 --------------------------------------------
-Quest: Retrieve the magic axe called Slaasher-
 --------------------------------------------

In the next room you will run into a group of Orcs here that demand that you 
find an axe called Slasher for them. If you refuse they will attack, and likely 
kill you, so agree to find it. You can find the Slasher on the Catacomb Second 
Floor. When you come back with Slasher and give it to him (or you could give 
him a fake axe) and he tries to test it (by attacking one of his companions!) 
and is satisfied with the results. (Or angry if you gave him a fake axe.) Then 
he gives you a warning (Orcs rule, humans drool.) and leaves.

Note: He keeps any axes you give him to test. So don’t give him any more axes 
than you need to.


-Gregar Brock-

When you reach this room you see a statue by the wall with a candle at its base. 
Simply light the candle and a zombie named Gregnar Brock will be summoned. 
After a bit of dialog Gregnar will join you. This guy is has a lot of health, 
so he’ll be with you for awhile.

Note: If you go above ground after you get him, Gregar will die.


-Catacombs: Second Level-

This level has VERY difficult puzzle to solve on this level. To solve it you 
have to go the stairs in the upper left corner, and then click on the stairs. 
Slasher can be found on this level, it’s it in a treasure room that’s under a 
Floor Tile.


-Catacombs: Third Level-

From the stairs go right and then down into the large room. The stairs down are 
in the coffins in the center of this room, but they are locked. To unlock the 
coffins you have to open the 4 tombs on the platform around the coffins. When 
you open a tomb you will be attacked by a legion of undead. Open all 4 tombs 
then open up the coffin and go down to the next level.


-Catacombs: Fourth Level-

Go to the left through the first and second rooms, in the third room take the 
hallway down to the end. At the end of the hallway continue down to the next 
room and head down to the next room. Go left and down until you find doors 
leading to the right and left. The right door leads to the area with the second 
teleport stone. Flip the lever and enter. The teleport stone is in the next 
room, to pick it up just open your inventory and click and drag the stone into 
your inventory. If you got here by using the first teleport stone, you have to 
use the teleport pad near the door to escape. The left door leads to the stairs 
down.


-Catacombs: Fifth Level-

You are in the home stretch! Go down into the inner room, there is a skeleton 
there who will talk to you. He will complain that the resurrection ritual is 
not working. Badger him enough and he will let you see the ritual. Now play 
Tech Support, go to the upper left lever and when they start the ritual again, 
flip the lever. This resurrects Thelyron. He tells you it was he who is causing 
Mardaneus’ insanity. After he’s done talking you he suddenly becomes wracked 
with pain. He can stand it, and begs you to put him out his misery. (what a 
wimp) Go ahead and kill him. When you do, Thelyron’s minions are mildly upset 
that you killed their master and bring a whole boatload undead down your throat. 
Fight your way out and when you get out of the room Mardaneus shows up and zaps 
all the undead. After a brief conversation revealing that Mardaneus isn’t crazy 
anymore, go into the portal and back to the surface.


-Back in Aleroth-

Now that he is back to normal, Mardaneus will gladly heal you for free.


 ------------------------------
-Quest George has been murdered-
 ------------------------------

When you first enter George’s shop after finishing the catacombs, you Go and 
talk to Mardaneus about George’s murder, he will suggest talking to the other 
healers. You won’t be able solve this mystery for a while.


-Outside the town-

When you first go out of town there is cutscene of some soldiers getting 
slaughtered by some orcs. Then a knight named Seth will arrive and order you 
back inside the town. Inside the town Seth will explain that there is a plague 
ravaging Rivelon, and he has come ask for the aid of the healers of Aleroth. He 
wants you to tell the healers his plight. Go to Mardaneus and tell him about 
the plague and Madaneus will agree to help. Go back to Seth and tell him the 
good news. He will tell you to deliver a message to General Alix to arrange for 
an escort for the healers. Leave the town.
