Blackthorn & his demon-guards behaved like nothing unusual had happened, even after I returned to Level 3 where they are located. As I was wearing the Black Badge when venturing inside Blackthorn's Castle, navigating around the fortress was a relative breeze - no interrogation or interference whatsoever from Blackthorn.Īlthough there was a threatening commotion at Level 3 of the castle immediately after I "stole" back Lord British's crown at Level 4, hilariously enough the incident was forgotten as soon as I exited to Level 2. ![]() ![]() I have yet to test the above-mentioned method, since all of the shrines are fine during my gameplay. (Background: Glinkie had been searching unsuccessfully for the Shrine of Spirituality, & was afraid that it had been destroyed.) One has to yell the relevant Word at the destroyed shrine, & then meditate for 3 cycles with the appropriate mantra. Glinkie (an adventurer located in Paws) revealed that the Words of Power can be used to restore destroyed shrines. I'm not sure if there's a way to restore it." However, you can cast an "unlock" spell or wait for Jerone's brother to show up at noon and ask him for keys.įrom post: "when you visit the Shrine of Honesty, you find it destroyed. Q: What happens if you commit a crime (theft, murder, refuse to give guards their tribute) and "go quietly"?Ī: You end up in jail in Yew, in a cell next to Jerone. Q: What if you're not on the magic carpet, and you fall down the trap doors in Stonegate?Ī: You take a long fall to the center of the world, and everyone dies. I did, and was able to kill him (I used the glass sword just for the heck of it), but the game only tells you that he "vanishes." Later, he'll reappear in towns, or Stonegate, just as if you had never fought him. The only problem is that when he gets "critical," he retreats to the center of the screen, where you can't hit him unless you have a pole-arm. He's a little tougher than a daemon, but you can defeat him without too much trouble. Then, you enter combat with your party members divided by magic fields (which you would need the scepter to dispel). If you engage a Shadowlord in combat, first, he takes back the scepter. Q: What happens if you attack the Shadowlords?Ī: I don't know why I didn't try this before. ![]() However, if you don the invisibility ring, Blackthorn flees from battle and the game tells you that you have achieved "VICTORY!" Blackthorn doesn't appear in his castle anymore, even if you leave and return. Q: Can you kill Blackthorn, even with the glass sword, magic axes, invisibility rings, and the crown in effect so he can't summon daemons or cast spells?Ī: Doesn't look like it. Maybe it was because I had already killed the Shadowlords and stolen the crown. I didn't experience that-I got caught and thrown in jail just like before. Q: How does Blackthorn treat you if you show up with the "black badge" of the Oppression?Ī: Supposedly, he treats you nicely and the guards don't seize you. Q: What happens if you get caught in Blackthorn's castle, but you don't have a companion for him to execute?Ī: He just tosses you in his dungeon. I'm not sure if there's a way to restore it. Then, when you visit the Shrine of Honesty, you find it destroyed. ![]() Q: What happens if you give Blackthorn the Mantra to the Shrine of Honesty?Ī: He kills your companion anyway. (Thus, the only thing I didn't have to re-do was the long "grinding" process.) I took the opportunity, while running around Britannia to solve the game again, to learn a few things I hadn't figured out in my initial play. This meant that I hadn't killed the Shadowlords, visited the dungeons, or explored the Underworld yet, but with the notes I had, these things ended up not taking as long as I thought-especially since I hex-edited my saved game so that my characters would have the same experience as when the file got corrupted. As I noted in an edit to my last posting, I was able to find a backup of the saved game that I had made on September 1.
