IMPORTANT: All questions can be sent to [email protected], and if you
have anything you would like to add to the guide, send it to
[email protected]. This is because it is too tough for me to separate
stuff people want me to add to the guide from basic questions. if you send any
reader tips to [email protected] or any questions to
[email protected], they will be deleted. Thanks for understanding.

Also, Matt Hulbert is no longer a co author of this guide, as his format was,
in his own words, "outdated", and since he added no information to the guide,
he has contributed nothing to THIS version. I do thank him for taking the time
to reformat my guide back in the day, however.

come out and ask the question and be all rude if I do not respond in five

-------------------------+ 3.2 Story +-------------------------
++++++++++++++++++++++++++=========================+++++++++++++++++++ +++++++

Once upon a time, in a land far far away, there was a kingdom called
Alfegard. This kingdom lived in peace for many years. One day this all changed.
Evil monsters came and wrecked all the peace and killed many of the innocent
people. All hope was not lost however. A brave warrior named Erdrick fought
this evil with the ball of light and restored peace to the kingdom. This peace
would not last for long however. The Dragonlord came years later, and stole the
precious ball of light and hid it in the darkness. This is where you come in.
You, yes you, must take on a quest to find the Dragonlord and fight him until
the end, recover the ball of light, and restore peace to the land once again.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
CHARACTERS
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

You - The brave warrior who took this quest to save the kingdom of Alfegard.

King Lorik - A real hypocrite. He wants you to restore peace and defeat the
Dragonlord and knows you need gold to buy weapons and armor to do so but still
takes half your gold when you die anyway. It would be cool if you could say
something like this to him the second time you die: "Yeah, well if you didn't
take my gold away the first time, then I could have bought that new armor and I
would have never died again."

Princess Gwalin - The daughter of Lorik. You must rescue her from the swamp
cave.

The Dragonlord: The ultimate enemy. Defeat him to restore peace to the land!

Nester - A very confused person.

Wynn - See this man in Cantlin for information regarding Erdrick's Armor.

Orwick - Hmm. This guy should really start writing down the places he is
supposed to meet his girlfriends.

______________________________________________________________________
| Other people: |
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Townsman: Blue and white people. Once in awhile they will have some advice.

Guards: Guard castles and other places. They usually have good advice.

Wise Men: Usually very wise, but sometimes they can get on your nerves.

Soldiers: Guys with swords and shields. Usually have nothing much to say.

Merchants: The fat guys in green and white. Usually trying to sell something.

Women: If you came to Alfegard to get a variety of women, you will be
disappointed. Every single woman looks exactly the same.


++++++++++++++++++++++++++=========================+++++++++++++++++++ +++++++
-------------------------+ 3.3 Basics +-------------------------
++++++++++++++++++++++++++=========================+++++++++++++++++++ +++++++

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
TERRAIN
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Plains - The green grass. There are usually not too many enemies in these.

Forests - Areas with trees. A lot of enemies lurk in the forests, so watch out!

Hills - Hills will slow you down a bit. They are also crawling with enemies.
Unless you want to spend a lot of time there, stay out of the hills.

Craggy Mountains - The steep gray mountains. You cannot walk on these.

Water - Also impassable. The only way to get through water is if there is a
bridge. Be careful though. Each time you cross a bridge, the enemies get
stronger.

Swamps - Beware of swamps. Each time you walk on them you will lose two
hitpoints. Once you get Erdrick's Armor, swamps won't hurt you at all.

Barriers - The diagonally striped spaces. Everytime you walk on one, you will
lose 15 hitpoints. Like swamps, you don't lose any damage from them if you have
Erdrick's Armor.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
CAVES
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Much of the time you spend playing the game will be exploring caves. I have
listed each cave below and given some information about the cave.

Erdrick's Cave - Just north of Tantagel Castle. Here you will find the
Erdrick's Tablet. There are no enemies in this cave and it is very small.

Mountain Cave - Southeast of Garninham. This the first cave you will explore
that has enemies. Get the death necklace and fighter's ring here. Sell both of
them! This cave is a lot bigger than Erdrick's Cave but is very easy to learn
how to get around in it.

Swamp Cave - Located in a swamp south of Kol. It serves two purposes. One is,
that is where you will have to go to rescue the princess. Use a torch or
radiant when you do this. You will have to fight a Green Dragon in order to
rescue her and you will also need a magic key. To get to Rimildar you won't
need a torch or radiant. It is very easy to find your way out of the cave. Just
go down for a long way until you hear a thumping sound. Then go to the right
until you hear the same sound. Then down again, right, down, and finally left.
Then go up the stairs and you will be out of the swamp.

Grave of Garninham - Use a key in the town of Garninham to reach here. You will
also need another key when you get inside the grave. The silver harp is here as
well as many strong enemies. Enemies as strong as Wraith Knight's are hear so
be careful!

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
QUICK TRANSLATOR
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

You shouldn't need this, but some of the language in the game is a little,
well... ancient. They are pretty easy to understand and some of them are almost
the same but here is a quick guide anyway.

Thou - Subjective form of you.
Thee - Objective form of you.
Art - Are
Dost - Do
Thy - Your
Hast - Has

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
More About Your Character
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

*You can examine your Status by choosing the Status Command!

Level:
*This tells you your Level as a Warrior. You're at Level 1 at the beginning
of the game. As you Fight monsters and gain more Experience, your Level
goes up, your Strength increases, and you learn more Spells.

HP (Hit Points):
*This shows your Life Force. Hit Points will decrease when an enemy
inflicts damages on you. Don't forget, when this number reaches 0, that's
the end of you and the game!

Maximum HP:
*If your Life Force is very low, it can be restored to Maximum Force by
staying at an Inn. Also the Maximum HP goes up with each Level and you'll
be able to withstand more damage.

MP (Magic Power):
*This is your Power for chanting Spells. This power goes down each time you
chant a Spell. Some Spells use more or less MP than others.

Maximum MP:
*You can restored your Magical Power to Maximum Strength by staying at an Inn.

G (Gold):
*This is the Money you have obtained. You get some Gold for each of the
monsters you defeat. And when you've saved up enough Gold, you'll be able
to buy Weapons, Armor, and other Items.

E (Experience):
*This is your Fighting Experience. You can gain Experience by defeating the
enemy, the stronger the enemy, the more Experience you get. As you gain
Experience, your Level goes up and your Strength increases.

Strength:
*This number increases as your Level goes up.

Agility:
*Your character becomes faster at higher Levels. This means that you can
more easily avoid the enemy or Run away.

Attack Power:
*The higher this number, the more damage you can inflict on monsters. You
can increase your Attacking Power by becoming stronger and acquiring more
powerful Weapons.

Defend Power:
*A higher Defense rating means that an enemy's attack will inflict less damage.


++++++++++++++++++++++++++=========================+++++++++++++++++++ +++++++
-------------------------+ 3.4 Tips +-------------------------
++++++++++++++++++++++++++=========================+++++++++++++++++++ +++++++

-Make sure to save a lot, especially early on in the game, and remember to hold
down the reset button as you turn the power off!

-If enemies are running from you a lot, it will be best for you to move on to a
new area.

-Spend time leveling up and gaining gold often to keep up to speed with the
enemies.

-You need to save with the king.

-Once you get the heal spell, talk to the man in the southeastern corner of
Tantegel Castle to regain MP. You never have to use an Inn again!

----- 4.0 Walkthrough -------------------------------------------------------
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

In case you just can't figure what to do in the game, here is a complete step
by step walkthrough to help you finish the quest with ease.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
A. BEGINNING OF THE QUEST
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
To start off, you will have to read the things the king is saying. After he
is done babbling, collect the treasure chests. In the chests you will find 120
gold, a torch and a magic key. Leave the throne room by going down the stairs
and then keep going south until you exit the castle. When you leave the castle,
go directly to Breconary before you fight enemies. If be a chance, a slime
bumps into you, you can fight it because they are pretty weak, even without
weapons. If it is a red slime, you could still beat it but it is best to run
because you will lose a lot of energy before you even really started the game.
When you get to Breconary, go first to the weapons shop. Talk to the fat sales
man and buy the club and clothes. Then go to the tool shop which is in the
southeast end of town, inside another building, and buy the Dragon Scale. Put
the Dragon Scale on and you now will have more than enough protection for now,
a good weapon to start with and 20 gold, as a bonus to save. Leave Breconary
and get ready to fight some slimes. Walk back in fourth around Breconary and
Tantagel until slimes or red slimes appear and fight them. Keep doing this
until you reach level 2 which will be after 7 experience points. Now you should
go to the inn and get full HP and then go to the king and save your game.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
B. SIGNS OF A WARRIOR
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
After you do this, exit the castle again and go just a little bit north of
Tantagel Castle, about three quarters of the way to Erdrick's Cave. Here you
will fight Drakees and Slimes and Red Slimes until level 3. Depending on how
luck you are, you may and may not have to go to the inn during this level. If
you get low and the letters turn red, run right away unless you are sure you
can beat the enemy in one more hit and then go to the inn and come back. You
will reach level 3 when you have 23 experience points. Now you will also have
the spell of heal. You also have 5 MP. Heal costs 4 MP so you can only use it
once in this level. Now go up to the area surrounding Erdrick's Cave where you
will fight Ghosts, Drakees, Red Slimes and you will also run into magicians but
don't fight them, run. Keep fighting enemies and collecting experience and
gold. You should soon be able to afford the leather armor which costs 70 gold.
When you have 70, go to Breconary, buy the leather armor for 70 and sell the
clothes for 10. Use the gold you sold the clothes with and go to the inn. Then
go to the king and save your game. When you leave the castle again, go back to
where you were fighting and fight until you have 47 experience points and make
it to level 4. Now you can fight near Garninham.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
C. MOVING RIGHT ALONG
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
When you run low on energy and need to go to the inn now, still go to
Breconary because the inn in Garninham costs 25 gold. Keep fighting and
collecting gold until you get 90 gold which is when you will buy the small
shield. Save your game and go back to fighting again. When you get 110
experience points, you will be in level 5. Level 5 is a tough one. It is too
easy to be fighting ghosts because it would take forever to pass the level
getting 3 points at a time but you are still to weal for many enemies. For
level 5, you will be strong enough to fight around the outside of Kol. Go to
Kol and fight Magidrakees, Scorpions, Magicians and sometimes ghosts. If a
Skeleton appears, you are to weak to fight it so run. Use the hurt spell as
much as you can because it will effect enemies a lot better than attacking at
this point. When you run low on energy, stop into to Kol and rest at the inn
for 20 gold which won't be too bad at this point since you are making a lot
more gold. While you are in Kol, go to the northern part of town where there is
a bath that
supposedly cures Rheumatism.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
D. FAIRY FLUTE
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Walk directly underneath and take tree steps down and search and you will find
the Fairy Flute. Now, leave the town and fight some more enemies. When you have
180 gold, go back to Breconary, buy the Copper Sword, sell your club for 30, go
to the inn for 6 and go back to the castle and save, then go back to the Kol
area. You will be able to attack enemies a lot better with this new weapon now.
Keep on fighting until you reach level 6. You will be stronger now and
fighting will be easier. This is a low point in the game. You have to fight a
lot of magidrakees and scorpions to get to level 7 and you also need to save
300 for the chain mail. When you finally get enough for the chain mail, go to
Garninham and buy it, then save it and go back to the Kol area. Fight until you
reach level 7, save and then head for Breconary. Go to the tool shop and buy as
many torches you can hold. Then save quickly (you can never save too many
times) go to the mountain cave and go to the bottom floor. Fight every enemy on
the way. This is a good way to get experience and gold. Find the chest that has
100-130 gold. Take it.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
E. DEATH NECKLACE
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Then leave the cave fighting and gaining experience as you leave, and when you
are outside the cave, go right back in and do it again. Your gold will sky
rocket fast and you will also find the death necklace. If you have used up all
your torches and have still not have been lucky enough to find the death
necklace in the chest instead of the gold, buy some more torches! What do you
have to lose, you have already made several hundred gold doing this! When you
finally get the death necklace, go to Kol, and go to the tool shop there ad
sell the death necklace for 1200 gold. Then go to the weapons shop and buy the
Hand Axe for 560 gold and sell your Copper Sword for 90 gold. Since you
probably have several hundred gold from all the treasure chests, go to
Garninham and buy the large shield.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
F. CAVE EXPLORING
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
You should almost be at level 8 by now. Now, what do you do after all this
cave exploring? Do it again! The death necklace can only be found once, but you
still get a lot of experience from the enemies, and a lot of gold each time so
buy some more torches and get back there! When you have gone enough times to
have 1000 gold, go to Garninham, buy the Half Plate, save your game and go back
to Kol for just a little while and fight until you reach level 9. When you
reach level 9, save and go through the swamp cave to Rimildar. Here you will
fight Wolves, Warlocks, Metal Scorpions, and Skeletons. Fight them until you
get enough gold to buy the Broad Sword for 1500 gold. You will have to go to
the inn often because these enemies are strong and you will use a lot of MP
using sleep and heal. When you earn about 3000 dollars, go into Rimildar, buy
the Full Plate, and sell your half plate for 500. Then go to the key shop by
walking along the outside of the northern part of town and buy 6 magic keys to
last you a long time. Then go to the inn and go back to fighting to raise your
level. For now, you will be doing a lot of fighting. You will have to fight
enemies in this same place until you reach level 11.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
G. STONES OF THE SUNLIGHT
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
When you reach level 11, either go back to Tantagel Castle, or just kill
yourself. It is ok to kill yourself by this point because you won't need a lot
of gold for a long time. While you are in Tantagel Castle, unlock the door that
is guarding the right side of the castle. Go as far to the right as you can,
one step right of the castle wall and walk downward to until you see a
staircase. Go down that staircase and get the Stones of the Sunlight. Then go
back to the king and save your game. After you have done that, leave the castle
and head for Garninham. It is now time to retrieve that Harp! When you enter
Garninham, go to the right until you see a locked door. Open the door and go
in. Collect the three treasure chests. You will see another locked door with
two guards. Do NOT open this door. If you talk to the guards they both say "I'm
too busy, ask the other guard" so it is a waste of a key. In order to enter the
grave, you will have to go to the top left corner of the screen and find the
hidden entrance which is about three or four steps from the left corner, When
you go in there, keep going to the right until you see an old man and a
staircase. The old man will tell you to stay away from the grave but he is a
moron so don't listen to him. Go down the stairs, and get ready to explore the
grave!

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
H. THE GRAVE
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Turn on radiant and find the locked door, on the first floor. When you do,
unlock it, go down and then to the left until you see a staircase, take that
staircase down. Now go down until you, see a staircase and a path that leads to
the right. Take the path that leads to the right. Now go down the stairs. When
you get to the next floor, go up right away through the narrow passage for a
few steps until you can't any further, than go one to the right and follow that
path, and make a right turn at the first intersection. Then go up (up is the
only way you can go) and again make a right turn at the first intersection. Now
you will see a staircase. Go down the stairs, then go around to the other side
and go up those stairs. You will be in a big room with a treasure chest in the
middle. Take it and then die. You probably don't have a lot of money anyway,
because you bought all those keys and the full plate. Save your game while you
are in the kings room and go towards Kol to go to the Northern Cave as
explained above. Trade the old man the harp for the Staff of the Rain. Now go
back and save your game again. Now go to the Rimildar area but keep going
south, until you cross a bridge. This is the are you will be fighting for
awhile. You should be able to beat most of the enemies there pretty easily
except for Wyverns.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
I. SLAYING THE DRAGON
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
You have to try to put them to sleep which won't always work, but it is the
best thing to do. When you reach level 12, go to the inn and head for the swamp
cave and head home. Go to Breconary and buy 6 herbs and save your game. It is
now time to rescue the princess. Go to the swamp cave and chant the spell of
radiant. Now go to the right and work your way to a narrow passageway that
looks like this | | That is where the dragon always is. Heal yourself all the
way with the heal spell. Step on the square and pray he doesn't attack before
you're ready. Now chant the spell of sleep. It may work and it may not. When it
does, keep using the spell of hurt. When the dragon attacks, make sure you use
an herb for your next move, unless he just breathes fire which only takes 10-14
HP.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
I. GETTING A PRESENT
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
If you are persistent, you will eventually beat the dragon, because many times
it will sleep a long time. If you do get killed, reset the game and try again!
It is very hard but very possible too. You will just need to work at this to be
able to do it. When you beat him finally, heal yourself some more. Then go to
the locked door, unlock it and talk to the princess. Say yes you will bring her
home, exit the cave and go back, Be careful not to die on the way back because
you will have to unlock the door over again wasting a key. When you get back,
talk to the king and he will be grateful Gwaelin will give you a present.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
K. AXE KNIGHT ATTACKS!
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
It is Gwaelin's love. Now go to Breconary, have 6 more herbs and save your
game. Yup, you are gonna get Erdrick's Armor. In level 12. It is not too hard
to do either. Go to Hauksness, and heal yourself all the way running away from
everything. Go to the east side of it where there is a tree and small swamp.
Stand on the swamp right next to the tree and heal yourself. Now step on the
square and the Axe Knight will appear. Chant the stopspell immediately. No pray
he will chant it, wasting his attack. If he doesn't, use an herb. Then you
should try to put him to sleep. If it doesn't work after 2 tries, screw it.
Just keep fighting with hurt spell, and herbs, praying he will try to chant the
sleep spell. With the combination of herbs, and his wasted sleep spells, and
you possible putting him to sleep, you should be able to beat him. When you do,
search the ground and you will now have the Erdrick's Armor. Then head back for
the castle. If you die, reset the game and try again! When you get back to the
king, save your game of course. Now go back to the Wyvern place south of
Rimildar and fight until you get to level 13.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
L. BORROWING ERDRICK'S STUFF
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
When you get to level 13, it is time to get Erdrick's Sword. First of course,
you will need Erdrick's token. Do the usual, buy 6 herbs and head for
Hauksness, only keep going south. You will come to a bridge that is in the
hills. The enemies are very strong here so run every time. when you cross the
bridge, keep going north until you see the first bridge to the right. Cross
that bridge and enter the huge swamp. You won't lose any power now because you
have Erdrick's Armor. Go all the way to the other side of the swamp, running
away from enemies and using herbs when needed when you get to the center of the
right side of the swamp, or 70 40 if you use Gwaelin's love, search the ground
and find Erdrick's Token. Now go back to the castle, either by walking or death
and save your game. Now go back to the Wyvern location south of Rimildar and go
down the staircase. Talk to the old man there. Get the rainbow drop and go to
Breconary to buy 6 herbs and then save once again. Now head for the Rimildar
area again but instead of going south, go directly west until you are on sand
and come to a channel. Stand right in front of the channel and select rainbow
drop from the items menu.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
M. A WHOLE NEW WORLD?
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
The lake will flash many different colors and you will hear lots of sounds.
Then a bridge will appear. The enemies are very strong here so run and use heal
when you need to. Now go into the castle and get ready to get that sword! to
the north until you see barriers and a throne. Cross the barriers and walk
directly behind the throne and search. A staircase will appear. Now go down the
stairs to the next floor. Follow the path to the only staircase on that floor.
On the next floor do the same thing. There is only one staircase that you can
reach. Be careful. There will now be Blue Dragons and Stonemen. Use heal and
herbs when needed. The next floor is more complicated. Start by going to the
right as far as you can, then go down and take the first right. When you can't
go right any further, go up until you can't go up any further. Now go left
until you can't go left any further. Then go down and then you will see the
staircase. Go down the stairs and heal yourself some more. Remember, with
Erdrick's Armor you heal one point every step so this will help too. At the
next floor, work your way to the bottom right hand corner. This is pretty to
do. Now go up until you see a passageway. Do not go down this one. Instead, go
left for two steps and then down along the other side of that wall. You will
see a staircase going up. Now, follow the path until you reach another
staircase, as there is only one on this path. Go down the stairs and you will
easily see the next staircase to take.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
N. LEVELING UP
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
The next room is similar, there is only one staircase but this one is a little
bit longer. When you go down the next staircase, you will see a treasure chest.
Take the chest and you have the Erdrick's Sword. Now, if you have at least 14
MP, chant the spell outside and then return and go to Breconary and to the inn
and then save you game, if you do not, just kill yourself, go back to the king,
and save. This may take several tries and a lot of resetting , sometimes 5
tries or more, but it is not too difficult too do, and you will be very glad
you did it when you do. Now it is time to raise those experience levels! The
best thing to do is to go to one step south of Hauksness and just walk back and
fourth. The enemies will be a little tough at this level, but you should be
able to do it with a combination of Erdrick's Sword and Erdrick's Armor. You
will now be fighting Wyverns, Rouge Scorpions, Wraith Knights, Knights and
occasionally Demon Knights which will be you biggest challenge at the time.
When you raise your level to 14, go back and save your game. Then go to the
same location but further south to the moutainy area and go into the grassy
plain to the left of it.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
O. LULLING A GOLEM
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Here you will fight Knights, Demon Knights, Magiwyverns, and occasionally Metal
Slimes. Make sure you return everytime you are down to about 12 experience
points and be sure to save your game everytime you go to the inn so you can
reset from where you died from because you are now saving for the Silver
Shield. Keep fighting and saving and going to the inn and back until you reach
level 16. When you reach level 16, buy 6 herbs and save. Then head for Cantlin.
Go to the place where Erdrick's Token is but instead of going across that
bridge, keep going up to the last bridge where there is a big swamp. Then you
will see a town. Go to the town and two steps before it you will see a Golem.
First use the Fairy Flute to put him to sleep.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
P. THE FINAL CASTLE.. YES, ALREADY
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Keep attacking him when he dies and when he wakes up, use the Fairy Flute
immediately. Then use an herb to heal yourself and attack him again. Keep doing
this until he dies. Then go into Cantlin and go to the inn. Now you won't have
to return back everytime you are low, you can just go to the inn but do it
often so you don't die. When you finally make enough money for the Silver
Shield, go into Cantlin, and unlock the door that has two shops with your last
key. Buy the Silver Shield, sell your old one, exit the town, chant the spell
of Return, go to the inn at Breconary and save. Now go to this same spot to
fight until you reach level 20. At level 20, you are ready to fight the
Dragonlord. To do this, first go to Breconary, buy 6 herbs and save your game.
Now go to Charlock Castle, running from every enemy. When you get to the
Castle, go down the stairs, you went to behind the throne before. When you are
in the dark, use a torch instead of Radiant because you will need as much MP as
you can have for the fight with the Dragonlord. Now follow the path to the next
floor. Do this again. When you go down the stairs from the second basement to
the third, it is a little more complicated. Now, go to the right as far as you
can, then go down and make the first turn to your right. Go right as far as you
can, then up as far as you can, then left and down and you will see the stairs.
On the next floor, go to the bottom right hand corner, and go up until you see
a staircase, and take the first left there. Keep going left until you see a
stair case. Go down that staircase. On this floor, just follow the path, there
is only one staircase to go to. The next floor is the same, just go right until
you reach the final staircase. The last floor, will be lit up so you can
finally see where you are going. Start by going up and making the first left
turn, and take the last path that is going upwards. Make the first right turn.
>From then on, just follow the path until you are standing next to the
Dragonlord.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Q. DUN DUN DUN...
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Talk to him, using talk. He will offer you to rule half the land with him. Say
no, or you will ruin the game and have to reset and leave from where you were
before you went to the Castle. He will then call you a fool and the battle will
begin. By this point, the first Dragolord should be easy. Just keep attacking
him, and hope he attacks or uses Stopspell but not Hurtmore. When he is dead, a
huge dragon will appear and it will say "The Dragonlord revealed his true
self." Do NOT under and circumstances try chant any other spell besides
Healmore during this battle. Attack him, and he will attack you. When your life
gets low, chant healmore. Keep sustaining and doing this until you defeat him.
It takes awhile but when you finally do, you will have beaten the game! Now,
chant the spell of outside, and return, and go inside the castle. The kind will
be waiting on the first floor. He will congratulate you, and ask you to take
over the kingdom. You decline his request and go off with Gwaelin to find your
own kingdom. Then the credits roll on and it is the end.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
R. OPTIONAL CRAP
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
After this, you reset and play some more. Now to raise your experience levels,
go to the Axe Knight in Hauksness and fight him over and over to raise your
levels fast. You will have to get 4000 points each level now. The highest level
is 30. The highest experience and gold allowed is 65535. Once you get you will
be extremely strong. The strongest enemy that will ever run away from you is
the Wyvern, who will finally run in level 30. That is about it. By then you can
cream the Dragonlord and that is about all there is to do in the game Dragon
Warrior.

----- 5.0 Frequently Asked Questions ----------------------------------------
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

If you have any questions about the game, email them to [email protected]
and I will add them to the guide.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. I keep getting killed by stupid enemies early in the game!
A: Well, you need to buy some armor and weapons first, then you need to equip
them.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Where can I level up easily and quickly?
A.: I prefer Domdora Desert for getting to 18, then the area around Cantlin to
get to 25 or so.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. How come I lose half my gold whenever I die?
A.: Blame the king and his evil taxes!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. What's the lowest level you ever beat the game at?
A.: 17. Dragonlord's not that bad, it just takes a while.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. Goldmen are cool to fight, right?
A.: If you need quick gold, there's no one better. However, they are hard to
find, give crap for experience, and you can spend time fighting enemies who
give good experience and gold to level up along with gaining gold.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. Is there any enemies which give a lot of experience?
A.: Metal Slimes, but good luck killing one. =P
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. Does the Fighter Ring even do anything?
A.: Someone asked me this. Dalez is wrong, sadly. It increases your speed by 2.
It doesn't increase attack or defense, though.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8. Ha, is it true I can sell the Dragon's Scale after using it?
A.: Sure, and you keep the bonuses it gives you. However, you can only do it
once.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9. This game is rather.. basic.
A.: Yeah, I know. It's a very old game, and therefore, there's not much to it.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10. Why make this guide?
A.: Well, I already had one from a long time ago, so I finished it now.
Besides, I like this game, and I plan to do guides for all 7 American DW games
(That includes the 2 GBC games).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
11. Is this the best DW guide?
A.: Hell no, Colin has the best BY FAR, followed by Dalez. I don't know the
other ones.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

----- 6.0 Lists -------------------------------------------------------------
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Here is a complete listing of all the items, weapons, etc. of the game.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++=========================+++++++++++++++++++ +++++++
-------------------------+ 6.1 Weapons +-------------------------
++++++++++++++++++++++++++=========================+++++++++++++++++++ +++++++

You will get absolutely nowhere on your quest without weapons. There are many
different types of weapons that will help you along the way. Since there are
not as many weapons as there items and enemies. Same format as before.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Weapon: Bamboo Pole
Attack: 2
Cost: 10 Gold
Location: Brecconary/Cantlin
Description: Cheap and worthless. Never buy it. It is completely ineffective
and even though it is cheap, it is still a waste of your money.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Weapon: Broad Sword
Attack: 20
Cost: 1,500 Gold
Location: Rimuldar/Cantlin
Description: A step above the hand axe, this is a very powerful weapon.
Although the hand axe is good, you can't use it forever. The broad sword, is
expensive but a very good weapon.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Weapon: Club
Attack: 4
Cost: 60 Gold
Location: Brecconary/Cantlin/Garinham
Description: Although this too isn't too powerful, you should definitely make
this your first weapon. You can easily afford it in the beginning of the game
and is much more effective than the bamboo pole.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Weapon: Copper Sword
Attack: 10
Cost: 180 Gold
Location: Brecconary/Cantlin/Kol/Rimuldar/Garinham
Description: This will be your first weapon upgrade. Although 180 gold
doesn't seem like a lot of money, it will take a long time to get this much
gold, at the beginning of the game. More powerful than the club, but still a
fairly weak weapon.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Weapon: Erdrick's Sword
Attack: 40
Cost: Not Available
Location: Charlock Castle
Description: A magnificent sword with astounding power and its free. Good
thing too. If they put a price on a sword like this, you'd be collecting gold
until you were too old and weak to use the damn thing. It is found in Charlock
Castle. For complete directions on your quest for this, see the walkthrough
below.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Weapon: Flame Sword
Attack: 28
Cost: 9,800 Gold
Location: Cantlin
Description: A complete and total waste of money. It is extremely expensive
and not even that much better than the broad sword. You should go directly from
the Broad Sword to Erdrick's sword. By the time you are strong enough to fight
enough enemies to have 9800 gold AND make it to Cantlin, you should be able to
safely make it to Erdrick's Sword.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Weapon: Hand Axe
Attack: 15
Cost: 560 Gold
Location: Garinham/Rimuldar
Description: After you have a lot of experience and really start to earn a lot
of gold, you should definitely save for this. It is a fairly powerful weapon and
you will get far with it. If you want to go to Rimildar and fight enemies like
Wolves and Metal Scorpions, you will need this weapon.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

++++++++++++++++++++++++++=========================+++++++++++++++++++ +++++++
-------------------------+ 6.2 Armor +-------------------------
++++++++++++++++++++++++++=========================+++++++++++++++++++ +++++++

As you have seen, there are many strong enemies, who are out to get you. In
order to protect yourself, you will need armor. Same format as before.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Armor: Clothes
Defense Power: 2
Cost: 20 Gold
Location: Brecconary
Description: Although they are cheap and not too effective, you should buy them
anyway, at the start of the game. They protect you a little bit and with the
Dragon's Scale, you will have more than enough protection for that time being.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Armor: Chain Mail
Defense Power: 10
Cost: 300 Gold
Location: Garinham/Cantlin
Description: Those annoying letters you get in the mail that you are supposed
to pass on. No, actually the next step up. You will have this armor for a long
time because you need to buy the hand axe and large shield before you buy armor
again so this is a very important armor that is used for much of the game.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Armor: Erdrick's Armor
Defense Power: 28
Cost: Not Available
Location: Hauksness
Description: This armor gives you a lot of bang for your buck especially
considering it is free. It protects you better than anything else. It allows
you to walk on barriers and swamps without any damage, and you restore 1 hp
every step you take. Truly an excellent armor. See walkthrough below, to learn
everything you need to know for obtaining this armor.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Armor: Full Plate Armor
Defense Power: 24
Cost: 3,000 Gold
Location: Kol/Rimuldar/Cantlin
Description: This will be the last armor you will have to buy. It is fairly
expensive but well worth it. If you want to fight bigger enemies and get more
gold and experience, you will have to save up for this armor.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Armor: Half Plate Armor
Defense Power: 16
Cost: 1,000 Gold
Location: Garinha,/Kol/Rimuldar/Cantlin
Description: The first armor you will buy that is actually pretty strong. This
is a very good armor. You basically buy this armor to make gold faster to buy
the full plate and the broad sword.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Armor: Leather Armor
Defense Power: 4
Cost: 70 Gold
Location: Brecconary/Garinham
Description: Your first Armor upgrade. Stronger than Clothes but still not
great. They certainly serve their purpose for until you have enough money for
Chain Mail though.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Armor: Magic Armor
Defense Power: 24
Cost: 7,700 Gold
Location: Rimuldar/Cantlin
Description: Like the Flame Sword, this is a complete waste of money. It is
very expensive and as before, by the time you fight enough enemies to earn 7700
gold, you should be able to fight the Axe Knight in Huskiness and get Erdrick's
Armor. If you do decide to get it however, 1 hp is restored every three steps
you take.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

++++++++++++++++++++++++++=========================+++++++++++++++++++ +++++++
-------------------------+ 6.3 Shields +-------------------------
++++++++++++++++++++++++++=========================+++++++++++++++++++ +++++++

Shields also increase your defense power quite a bit. Since there are only 3
shields, there is no need for a chart.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Shield: Iron Shield
Defense Power: 10
Cost: 800 Gold
Location: Garinham/Cantlin
Description: It costs 800 gold and can be bought in Garninham, Rimildar and
Cantlin. It is much better than the small shield and without this, you will
never be able to survive long enough to buy the silver shield.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Shield: Small Shield
Defense Power: 4
Cost: 90 Gold
Location: Brecconary/Kol
Description: It costs 90 Gold and can be bought in Breconary, Kol, Garninham
and Cantlin. It is not very strong but it is inexpensive and definitely serves
it's purpose.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Shield: Silver Shield
Defense Power: 20
Cost: 14,800 Gold
Location: Cantlin
Description: A very expensive shield. Well worth the money. It is definitely
a good thing to have if you are going to fight the dragonlord, which you are
because that is why you started on this quest in the first place. Save your
game constantly when you save for this because if you die you will lose half
your gold and you can reset and you will not lose much.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

++++++++++++++++++++++++++=========================+++++++++++++++++++ +++++++
-------------------------+ 6.4 Items +-------------------------
++++++++++++++++++++++++++=========================+++++++++++++++++++ +++++++


There are many items that will help you along your way. Here is a listing of
them.


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ball of Light
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is the item the Dragonlord has stolen. Your ancestor Erdrick once used
this precious object to fight demons and now it is up to you to recover it.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dragon's Scale
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This should be one the first items you by. Although it doesn't
increase your defense power greatly, it will help a little. It raises your
defense power 2 points which is nearly doubled if you buy it in level 1. It is
not automatic like armor, though. You must don it by selecting it from the
items menu.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Erdrick's Tablet
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Not too important to find, but if you do, read it! It was a stone tablet
Erdirck left you with words of wisdom and motivation.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Erdrick's Token
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The item you need to show the man in the southern cave that you are really
Erdrick's descendant. Without this, you cannot get the rainbow drop. It is
located at 70' South 40' West and the game instructions say you need Gwelin's
Love but you don't. It is pretty easy it pinpoint the location without knowing
your distance. It is in the middle of the right side of the large swamp, if you
have Erdrick's Armor, it will be know problem. Just watch out, very strong
enemies live there.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fairy Water
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now we all know there is nothing more annoying then a million enemies popping
up, even if they are simple slimes, when we are trying to go somewhere
important. The repel spell helps but since you don't get that until level 15,
Fairy Water helps a lot. It does everything Repel does, but you need keys to
get it and you need to pay for it too.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fairy Flute
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Needed to put Golem to sleep. He is the guy that looks like a Orange left
handed Goldman, guarding Cantlin. It can be found in the town of Kol. You will
see a square of water which is supposed to be a bath that cures Rheumatism.
Walk to the spot directly beneath this fountain and take exactly 5 steps
downward and search. You will find the fairy flute there.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fighter's Ring
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Found in the Mountain Cave. It doesn't do anything. It increases neither your
Attack or Magic Power. The only thing it is good for is selling and it only
sells for 15 gold.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gwaelin's Love
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After you rescue Gwaelin, she gives you a present. It is some kind of device,
that lets her talk to you when you are out fighting enemies and in caves (like
a cell phone.) It is very useful because it tells you how much experience you
need to get to the next level and although you don't need it for Erdrick's
Token, it helps a little.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Herbs
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do the same as heal spell only more efficiently. They cost 24 gold and you can
carry up to 6 at once. Very useful for when you are in the middle of a battle
and have to recover fast or are low on Magic Power and need to heal yourself.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Magic Key
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Opens locked doors There are three places to buy them. Rimildar for 53 gold,
Tantagel Castle for 85 gold, and Cantlin for 93. Never buy them in Tantagel
Castle or Cantlin. Not only are they more expensive, but you need a key just to
get to both of these shops. Only buy keys in Rimildar.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rainbow Drop
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Needed to make the rainbow bridge to get to Charlock Castle. When you get
Erdrick's Token, Staff of the Rain, and Stones of the Sunlight, bring them to
the old man in the cave south of Rimildar. He will make them into the rainbow
drop. Then go to the channel on the sand that is just a little but northwest of
Rimildar, Walk right in front of it and select Rainbow Drop from items menu and
the water will flash many colors and you will hear all sorts of sounds and then
a bridge will appear. You can only do it once and it is really cool to watch.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Silver Harp
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Found in the Grave of Garninham. When you play it, it attracts enemies. You
don't want to use it for this however. You want to go to the cave that is way
up north in the woods and give it to the old man there. To get there go just a
little west of Kol and you will see a very narrow passage of trees surrounded
by water on the bottom and mountains on the top. Take that path and then go
north and you will eventually see the stairs you need to go down.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Staff Of The Rain
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One of the three items necessary for you to have the Rainbow Drop. You trade an
old guy the silver harp for it. The directions to the old guy are explained
above.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stones Of The Sunlight
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Third item needed for the rainbow drop. Found in the basement of Tantagel
Castle. In the castle, go to where the northern exit is, and go right and you
will see a door. Unlock it and go right until you are on grass next to the
Castle, do NOT walk any further to the right or you will leave the castle and
have to do it over again. When you are on this grass go straight down and
eventually you will see another staircase. Take this staircase downstairs and
you will see an old man with a treasure chest. Take the chest and you will have
the Stones Of The Sunlight.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Torch
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A very cheap way to light up caves. It is only 8 gold but doesn't light
too well. You can only see for one space around you in each direction, where
Radiant lets you see for four blocks in each direction but then fades out.
Serves its purpose until level 9 though and you will need it in Charlock Castle
when you fight the Dragonlord because you will need as much MP as possible.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wings
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Like the torch, also takes the place of a spell before you get it. You
can fly directly home to Tantagel Castle with this if you get in a situation
where you don't think you can make it home alive or you just want to quit and
don't want to walk all the way back. They are rather expensive, 70 gold, but
you will never need them after Level 15.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cursed Belt
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Found in two places. The first, in the Grave of Garninham. It
shouldn't be too hard to find. It is in a treasure chest after you walk up a
long narrow hallway. The second on the bottom floor of Charlock Castle where
all those treasure chests are, guarded by a locked door. Don't put it on. Sell
it at the tool shop for 180 gold.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cursed Necklace a.k.a Death Necklace
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Found in the Mountain Cave. On the bottom floor, you will find a chest that
contains 100-130 gold. The cursed necklace is in that chest at random. If it is
not there the first time, chant the spell of Outside, go back in and try again.
Keep trying this until you get it. It may take awhile but you get over 100 gold
everytime you do it and when you finally get the necklace, you can sell it for
1200 gold.

-------------------------+ 6.5 Magic +-------------------------
++++++++++++++++++++++++++=========================+++++++++++++++++++ +++++++

Along your quest, you will learn many spells. They are very useful, without
them, the quest would be a real drag and probably impossible. Back to the old
format.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Spell: Heal
Level Learned: 3
MP Cost: 4
Description: This will be the first spell you will learn. In level 3, you will
only be able to use it once. After that, your MP will increase rapidly. Although
somewhat effective, it does not restore as much as herbs, but is still
definitly useful.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Spell: Healmore
Level Learned: 17
MP Cost: 10
Description: Restores almost 100 MP. Extremely important if you are fighting the
Dragonlord. Since his fire can take away 47 HP, this is definitly a nescisity.
Only use this if you really have to, because if you use it frequently, you will
find yourself without any MP, very quickly.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Spell: Hurt
Level Learned: 4
MP Cost: 2
Description: This spell is great when you get. A lot more powerful than your
attacks at that time, and only uses 2 mp. It is great for fighting magicians and
scorpions.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Spell: Hurtmore
Level Learned: 19
MP Cost: 5
Description: Very powerful spell, that can take 60-70 HP away on some enemies.
With this spell, you will many times be able to kill enemies as strong as Axe
Knights in one attack. Enemies also know this spell but thank God it is not as
powerful as yours because if enemies could take away 70 HP at once, you would
definitly be screwed.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Spell: Outside
Level Learned: 12
MP Cost: 6
Description: If you are ever stuck inside a cave and don't think you have enough
energy to make it out alive, or don't want to even try because you are in a
hurry, than this is the spell for you. It will transport you outside the cave,
no matter where you are inside of it. Just make sure you save 6 MP, if this
what you are planning to do.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Spell: Radiant
Level Learned: 8
MP Cost: 3
Description: Much more effective than the torch, but it costs 3 mp everytime you
use it and it eventually fades out. I still recomend it over the torch for
most situations except for Charlock Castle because you will need all the MP you
can have.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Spell: Return
Level Learned: 13
MP Cost: 8
Description: Lets you return directly to Tantagel Castle from anywhere in
Alfegard. It will not work from caves, however. It takes a lot of MP but is
worth it. Using 8 MP for that is a lot better than using heal twice and trying
to make it all the way back from a tough situation.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Spell: Repel
Level Learned: 15
MP Cost: 2
Description: Very useful Spell. Does the same thing as fairy water, but you
don't have to pay anything for it and it only takes 2 MP to use it. It will not
work in caves or on enemies stronger than you, so don't even waste your MP
trying to do it in either of these situations.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Spell: Sleep
Level Learned: 7
MP Cost: 2
Description: When you get this spell, the game will be a hell of a lot easier.
You will be able to fight bigger and tougher enemies, and make it to a lot of
new places. Some enemies especially Demon Knights are not affected by it at
all. It can be used on just about any other enemy on a regular basis. It will
also not work on the Dragonlord at all, so don't even bother trying.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name of Spell: Stopspell
Level Learned: 10
MP Cost: 2
Description: A very useful spell that blocks enemy spells. It is useful for 2
reasons. One, you will prevent the enemy's spell from being successful. Two,
enemies don't know that when you chant stopspell, they aren't supposed to cast
the spell. Sometimes, they will try over and over and it will just say "But
that spell hath been blocked" which is a blessing because it saves you from
losing any HP at all.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name of Enemy: Knight
Hit Points: 50
Experience Points Given: 33
Gold Given: 130
Location: Domdora Desert

You may reproduce this guide for NON PROFIT ONLY. I don't care who you are. If
I am not making money with the guide, then you shouldn't either, especially
since I worked so darn hard on it. If you decide you want to reproduce this
guide for non profit uses, and I don't know about it, I will Rodney King your
ass! All you have to do is email me at [email protected] and tell me
exactly what you wanna do with my guide. You want to put it on your site, go
for it, as long as you keep it EXACTLY the same.

Otherwise, there will be a fight, and I know there's gonna be a fight, cuz I am
gonna start it! You can turn this guide into HTML if you want, I don't care,
just make sure none of this info is deleted or changed. If you want to print
this guide out, go for it. I wrote this guide to help people with this
incredible game! Just make sure to use this for your own use, and not go around
putting it on eBay. As long as you keep this guide the way it is, I don't care
if you post it on your site. Just KEEP IT THE WAY IT IS. Thank you.
