Betrayal at Krondor
This is the full walkthrough of the best RPG game in the history. You can
solve all the sidequests, gain all the scrolls from throughout the area, know
all the stories inside, and even get the codes for the cheat chest. I try to
make these hints as thorough as possible. For the sidequests, you can try them
in any order you like. I've just put them in the sidequest section in every
chapter. I've played this game 3 times and still don't get bored with it. So,
buckle your belt and get ready for the ADVENTURE of a life time.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 1 : Into a Dark Night
Q: What is my objective in chapter one?
A: Locklear and Owyn escort a Moredhel prisoner named Gorath, to Krondor. The
strategic and political importance of this trip South will become clear soon
enough...
Q: Where is Krondor?
A: Krondor is the Southernmost city in the Kingdom of Midkemia. If you are
having trouble finding it, refer to the color map included in your box. You
will find it along the coast of the Bitter Sea, just East of Sorcerer's isle.
Q: How do I open the Moredhel word locks?
A: Spin the tumblers on the chest until they spell the correct answer to the
riddle! All of the riddles and their answers are available at the end of this
walkthrough
Q: How do I get past the magical trap South of Zun?
A: South of Zun you will encounter a magical trap with four crystals that rise
out of the ground. You may click on your RETREAT button, (it could take
several tries), and bypass this trap, taking another route to Krondor; or you
could attempt to "solve" the puzzle. In this case, walking between like
colored crystals will trigger a magical lightning bolt that could kill a
member of your party. Try walking around the deadly pairs. Tap the "G" key on
your keyboard if you need extra help.
Q: My characters suddenly became sick or poisoned. Why?
A: Be sure to "examine" every package of rations you find in the world. Click
on the object with your right mouse button, then pay close attention to the
information in the upper left corner of the display. If your characters DO
become poisoned you will have to find some anti-venom, or pay for a cure in a
local temple. Restoratives and plenty of rest will also help heal this
condition. Getting "sick" from eating spoiled rations can usually be overcome
by sleeping for more than 12 hours.
Q: What should I do at Krondor?
A: When you get close to Krondor, you will be prompted as to whether you want
to continue following the road that leads toward the castle. Answer "YES" then
wait until the picture of the castle appears. Move your cursor over this
picture and you will see it change to words like "SHOP", "INN" and "PALACE."
If you left click when the cursor says "palace" you will learn that the gates
have been jammed. Move your cursor down to the cliff face beneath the gates
and you will find an alternate entrance into the castle.
Q: I'm in the sewer. Where is James?
A: You will not be able to get into the palace from the sewers until you have
found a character named James. He has been cornered by a group of Nighthawks
(wearing black) in the NW corner of the sewer network. You must kill them,
then head down the side passage that branches off to the North.
Q: Which grate leads up to the palace?
A: James will give you a key to unlock one of the grates leading up into the
palace. (The key will show up with your other keys automatically.) You'll find
the grate in a room East of where you found James. When you see a ladder,
click on it with your left mouse button. From the "lock screen" drag James'
key to the lock and release your button. (HINT: Try right clicking on the lock
for more information.) If you've found the correct ladder, the lock will open
and you will have successfully completed the first chapter!

King's soldiers at the Black Sheep Tavern. They must solve the mystery of the
spyglass and the spider, then find enough evidence to convince Arutha that
Nighthawks are operating in the area. You should start by talking to the
people in and around Romney.

A : Go to Upside Down Keg Tavern in Sloop. Learn about the poisoned keg
ordered by Mitchel Waylander. Go to his house nearby, in the village of Sloop.

A : Talk to the governor of Romney about the murders. He'll tell you if you
can find Arlie first. Go to the house with 2 corn fields near Sloops. Take
some spoiled rations with you (you can buy it in Silden, if you can't find any
around) and approach the house. Solve the trap poles. Tell him that the
governor of Romney wants to speak to him.
Q: Who was responsible for killing the King's men at the Black Sheep vern?
A: You will uncover many clues by talking to the people in and around Romney,
but you will learn the most valuable information by heading North toward the
town of Kenting Rush. Check out the Temple of Kahooli North of town and talk
to the Priest.
Q: How do I get the priests at the Temple of Kahooli to give me formation?
A: You won't learn anything at the temple of Kahooli until you have proven you
are pious in the eyes of their god. To do this you must drop ALL your food in
a bag, then use the ENCAMP option until all your characters are "starving."
Only then should you enter the temple and talk to the priest.
Q: Where is Navon Du Sandau?
A: The priests at the temple of Kahooli will implicate Navon Du Sandau as the
leader of the Nighthawks and the man responsible for slaying the King's
soldiers. You will find him on the road, in or around the town of Kenting
Rush.
Q: I've killed Navon Du Sandau. Where are the Nighthawk Headquarters?
A: Having killed Navon Du Sandau you must now find evidence of Nighthawk
involvement in a Moredhel attack on the Kingdom...to take back to Prince
Arutha in Krondor. You may find what you seek behind the waterfall, which is
just North of the Temple of Banath, between Cavall Keep and Prank's Stone. It
will be down a dirt road that branches West off the main road.
Q: How do I get through the locked door entrance to the Nighthawk
Headquarters?
A: To enter the caverns behind the waterfall, move your cursor around near the
base of the falls until it changes to the word ENTER, then press your left
mouse button. You will need a "Knight's Piece" to get past the door.
Q: Where can I find the Knight's Piece?
A: Head back to Kenting Rush and attempt to use the well on the South side of
town.
Q: How do I unlock the virtue well?
A: The lock on the well in Kenting Rush can only be opened with a "virtue
key." You will find such a key in the shop in Kenting Rush. There is also a
key located in a grave North of Prank's Stone, next to the river.
Q: How do I obtain the evidence I need against the nighthawks?
A: Once you've entered the caverns behind the waterfall, head NE. You will
need Navon Du Sandau's cellar key to get into his room. Once inside, you will
find a Moredhel wordlock chest, which contains the evidence you need to end
the chapter! The answer to the riddle is: "Darkness."

Follow it out and kill it. Go back to the house and receive a valuable info
about the murderers in Romney.
Q : Ivan's chess move, how I can defeat him ?
A : Remember Ivan from Malac Cross ? When you've met Navon Du Sandau at
Kenting Rush, you can ask him for his special chess move. Then if it's not
enough, try to find Brother Marc at the Abbey of Sarth. Ask him for the most
powerfull move in the game of chess : Abbor's Turn. Now you can go back to
Malac's Cross and challenge Ivan for a game of chess. Don't forget to bring
some emerald for the betting. You'll received an expensive emerald as a
reward. Note : if you ask Brother Marc about the nighthawks, you can buy Final
Rest spell for 100 sovereigns (that's 1/3 price from the shop).
Q : Where is the most complete magic shop in the world of Krondor ?
A : Look for a shop in the middle of the east forest between Prank Stone and
Caval Keep, Dabeh's Fanciful Trinkets. He sold lots of useful spells like
Final Rest, Nacre Cicatrix, The unseen, Nightfingers, Unfortunate Flux, Bane
of Black Slayers, Fetters of Rhime, and Stardusk.
Q : The Magic Test, what's the answer of the magic test in Kenting Rush ?
A : In the first house on the left when you enter Kenting Rush, there's a
magician who'll bet his Lightning Staff with a test. The answer is : Yes, No,
and you'll trick him. Receive the most powerful staff in the game : Lightning
Staff.
Q : What else can I do in Chapter III ?
A : You can learn about fighting skill from a nobleman in Kenting Rush (the
first house on the right from Caval Keep), learn about temple Kahooli's
principal from Prelate (the house with many guards in the east forest of
Kenting Rush), pick up Steelfire Spell from a chest with word HOLES on it
(near the river between Silden and Sloop) and Eyes of Ishap (near the HOLES
chest), and learn about the most powerful sword in the game : The Guarda
Revanche and the magic shell to repair it from a book (use the noble passkey
to unlock the door) inside the cavern behind the waterfall near Caval Keep.
Look for the sword later when you visit the Elvandar forest.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 4 : Marked for Death
Q: What is my objective in chapter four?
A: Owyn and Gorath must escape from the dungeons at Sar-Sargoth and then fight
their way South to The Teeth of the World...and freedom!
Q: How do I escape the dungeons at Sar-Sargoth?
A: The door South of your starting location when the chapter begins, is the
only way to get to the upper level of the mine. To open that door you will
need to find an interdictor key. You may find an interdictor key by going
through the East door. You will need a Guildis Thorn key to open the East
door. Once through the South door, simply head south, then west. The upper
level is much smaller then then other levels. The exit is NE of the airway.
Q: How do I get out of the Northlands?
A: The easiest and most painless way to get out of the Northlands is to find
Irmelyn in the Giant's Broth Tavern in Armangar. He will ask you to rescue a
character named Obkhar from the naphtha mines nearby.
Q: Where is Obkhar or the naphtha mines?
A: The naphtha mines are located NE of Armangar. Go around the North side of
the mountains separating the river and the road, then follow the river South.
You can squeeze between the river and the mountains and enter a secluded
canyon. The entrance to the naphtha mines is across the bridge. Obkhar is
located NE of the cave entrance. (HINT: Do NOT attempt to light a torch in the
naphtha mines!!! Use Owyn's Candleglow spell, or a Bracer of Prandur to create
artificial light.)
Q: I've rescued Obkhar from the naphtha mines and received my reward. I can't
find Cullich!
A: Cullich can be found in a house South of Caern and West of the crossroads
that lead to Raglam and Wyke. Use your brass spyglass, or have Owyn cast an
Eyes of Ishap spell if you are still having trouble.
Q: Where is Moreaulf?
A: Moreaulf is located in the town of Harlech in one of the Northern
dwellings.
Q: How do I speak with Moreaulf?
A: You will need to cast the spell "And the Light Shall Lie" in order to speak
with him. (Only Cullich can teach you this short duration spell. HINT: It can
be cast several times in succession to increase the duration.) Moreaulf will
only give you the password for the guards on the bridge if you have talked to
them first.
Q: How do I cross the bridge that leads out of the Northlands?
A: Before you talk to Moreaulf (using the spell "And the Light Shall Lie, of
course) you should attempt to cross the bridge by heading south past Armangar.
This way you will be able to ask him about a "password." Once you have
received the password from Moreaulf, simply head back to the bridge and you
will be allowed across.
The Sidequests
Q : Are there any sidequests in this chapter ?
A : There are few sidequests here like the Nalar's Rib and finding few magic
items. You'll find lots of useful scrolls here, like :
* Inside the cavern in Sar Sargoth, behind the East door from the first
place you were captured, there's a trapped chest contain Evil Seek scroll
* Outside Sar Sargoth, to the southwest, there's a chest with word EGGS on
it. Inside you'll find Nightfinger scroll
* In a well, west of Sar Sargoth, you'll see a vision about magician. Go
to the tent nearby, and you'll find Unfortunate Flux scroll
* In an abandoned house in Wyke (first house on the left) you'll find The
Fetters of Rhime scroll
* In a tent west of Cullich house you'll find Wrath of Killian scroll
Q: Where is Nalar's Rib?
A: Nalar's Rib is an extremely powerful, yet non-essential item that you may
want to spend some time looking for. It can be tricky to find. First, you must
collect the emerald and the note from the skull at Sar-Sargoth. Then, when you
leave the city, head south -- off the main road -- until you hit a mountain
and a graveyard. Go around the West side of the mountain and continue heading
south until you trigger a magical trap with three Ogre magicians in it. Once
this is dealt with, head SW and look for a large stone slab among a group of
trees. Nalar's Rib will kill all the Nalar's tribe in the forest, so you'll
get an easier combat after using that.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 5 : When Rivers Run Blood
Q: What is my objective in chapter five?
A: James, Locklear and Patrus help Duke Martin and Baron Gabot prepare a
defense for the impending Moredhel attack on Northwarden. The first place you
should go is back to Northwarden to talk with Baron Gabot. Then head south and
look for Duke Martin, he won't be too far from the castle.
Q: I'm having trouble with the three chests Duke Martin told me about.
A: The three chests Duke Martin tells you to find aren't far away. Head NW and
walk around the hills if you have to. When you find the chests the wordlock
answers are: "onion", "outside" and "door." The only poison that will work on
the rations is "coltari" poison, which can be purchased nearby. You must put
the rations in your inventory, poison them, then return them to each chest.
Q: How can I help Tamney the Minstrel?
A: Tamney the Minstrel can be found in a barn near the town of Dencamp on the
Teeth. To open the barn door, at least one member of the party must have a
STRENGTH rating of 30 or more. If this is a problem, you can buy a strength
booster called "Fadamor's Formula" at a shop nearby. The geomancy stones
Tamney asks about are in a cavern East of Dencamp. There are two side roads
that lead North to the cave entrance. Once inside you will find the stones in
a chest to the North.
Q: How do I get past the goblins guarding the pass into the Northlands?
A: There are FAR too many goblins guarding the entrance from the Kingdom into
the Northlands. You have no other choice but to pay them what they are asking.
The quickest way to raise the money is by selling the diamonds you got from
Tamney. It might be worth your while to search around for a shop that will
give you the best price.
Q: Where can I find the war plans in Raglam?
A: Captain Kroldech is occupying one of the houses in Raglam, and he has the
plans. To get the plans away from him, talk to the engineer who lives in the
house next to the tavern in Raglam.
Q: How can I make the engineer tell me where the missing catapult part is?
A: The engineer will only talk to the group if Patrus plays the lute POORLY.
The trick here is to lower Patrus' barding skill. The easiest and safest way
to do that is to get him drunk!
Q: I fired the catapult. What do I do next?
A: The engineer will tell you where to find the missing catapult part.
Retrieve it from the box near the river (be careful, it is trapped), then head
to the catapult and click on it with your left mouse button. Once the catapult
has been activated, head back to Raglam and click on Kroldech's house. The
plans are inside.
Q: Where can I find the invisible Moredhel spellcasters?
A: After returning to Duke Martin with the Kroldech's plans, the Duke will
give you one more task. This one will involve finding six invisible Moredhel
spellcasters and eliminating them. (They are SE of Dencamp on the Teeth, near
a house and well, which are both South of the main road.)
Q: How do I defeat the six Moredhel spellcasters?
A: THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DIFFICULT COMBAT SCENARIO and it may be necessary to
try it many times before you succeed. Here are some tips: Use restoratives
before the combat to boost your characters up to full HEALTH, and use them
during combat if possible. Move your fighters into their ranks -- they can't
use their magic if you are standing right next to them. Also, make sure your
armor and weapons are in peak condition, and if you have any potions or weapon
or armor enhancers -- use them!
The Sidequests
Q : What is the sidequest in this chapter ?
A : There's no sidequest in this chapter, but you can find magic scroll and
one deadly sword around, like :
* Black Nimbus spell from the troops near the south border to the Prank
Stone. Defeat them and search for their belongings
* The sword of Lims Kragma, this is the second powerful sword for human
race. You'll find it along with the plans of the Moredhel in Kroldech's
house in Raglam
* There are minor jobs like : accept the night duty job at Northwarden
(you'll learn about how the Moredhel can go inside the castle and receive
an Euliko Armor as a reward), find 2 notes near the south border of Caval
Keep that proove this imposters, and help Thea at the house near the
cavern west of Decamp of Teeth to teach her husband some fighting skill
(you'll received a crossbow as a reward)
Chapter 6 : Betrayal
Q: What is my objective in chapter six?
A: Owyn and Gorath must find Pug and Gamina. Their only clue is a cryptic
message burned onto the wall in Pug's room at Krondor: The Book of Macros.
When the chapter begins, search the sewers carefully.
Q: How do I get through the sewers under Krondor?
A: You will encounter a character named Katt in the SE corner, almost where
the hallway dead ends. (Try heading East from the four way intersection near
the entrance.) She will ask you for the Idol of Lassur, which is located in
the second level of the sewers. The chest it is located in, is trapped.
Q: How do I defeat the Pantathian serpent priests outside Malac's Cross?
A: If you head East towards Malac's Cross, watch out for the Pantathian
serpent priests surrounding the town. There are a lot of them and they are
very difficult to kill. Stock up on restoratives and use them before and
during the battle if possible. This would be a good place to use your armor
and weapons enhancers, as well. (HINT: You might pay a visit to Malac's Dragon
while you are in the area. It is NW of Malac's Cross.)
Q: How do I help Abbot Graves?
A: When Abbott Graves asks you to find Mitchell Waylander, head to Sloop. His
house is located near the shop. He will give you a note to take back to the
Abbott.

will lead you through a secret entrance into the libraries at rth.
Q: How do I get to Sarth?
A: You will not be able to get into Sarth by the normal means. Find the key to
Stellan's house and retrieve the map that will allow you to enter the library
through the caverns underneath. You can enter the caverns by left clicking
near the bottom of the Sarth background, when your cursor changes to the word
"ENTER." Once you have found the stairs leading up to the library, search the
shelves carefully until you find the information you are seeking.
Q: Where is the entrance to the Elvandar Forest?
A: There is only one way to get into Elvandar: through the mines of the Mac
Mordain Cadall. You will find the mine entrance on the Western side of the
road, South of LaMut.
Q: What do I do in Elvandar?
A: Prince Calin will help you get through the Elvandar Forest. He is located
in the NE corner in a secluded area. Do not cross the river if you hope to
find him. Note : He'll give you the Thy Master Will spell. It can help you to

Chapter 7 : The Long Ride
Q: What is my objective in chapter seven?
A: James, Locklear and Patrus search the Dimwood forest for the Rift Machine.
To start, head SE when the chapter begins, and cross the small bridge when you
come to it. Head SE from the bridge until you encounter Duke Martin. If you
continue to head SE you will also run into Obkhar. Both will give helpful
information.
Q: What is the password to cross the bridge guarded by goblins?
A: The password for the bridge can be found in a Moredhel lock chest in the NE
corner of the forest. The answer to the lock chest is "snowflake."
Q: I'm across the goblin bridge. What do I do now?
A: Once you've crossed the bridge you will have to find and talk to Moreaulf.
Head East along the river until you run into him.
Q: Where is the chest described by Moreaulf?
A: The chest is located in the SW corner of the forest in a box canyon. The
answer to the wordlock puzzle is "victory."
Q: I've opened the chest that Moreaulf described, but still see no sign of the
magical item that will destroy the Rift Machine.
A: You will need to find Squire Phillip. Look for him due North of the chest,
but it will be necessary to go around several mountains and foothills. He is
heavily guarded so be careful!
Q: Where is the Rift Machine?
A: The Rift Machine is located near the center of the forest on a peninsula
surrounded by rivers and mountains. One of the mountains is just an illusion,
conjured up by enemy magicians to hide the location of the machine. This
mountain must be walked through.
Q: How do I defeat the enemies surrounding the Rift Machine?
A: Goblins are particularly susceptible to the Mind Melt spell. If you don't
already possess this spell it might be a good idea to find it. The other
option would be to take a chance on Rorics Seal. This magical item will
automatically cast Mind Melt, but there is about a 30% chance it will backfire
and affect the caster instead.

Chapter 8 : Of Lands A Far
Q: What is my objective in chapter eight?
A: Owyn and Gorath search for Pug and Gamina on a hostile, alien world. It
would be a good idea to head north when the chapter begins. Find the
marble-looking pillars and click on them. It would also be a good idea to
stock up on food...you'll need it in chapter nine!
Q: How do I use magic in chapter eight?
A: To use magic in this strange world, Owyn will first have to find a crystal
staff. You can find a crystal staff in one of the dwellings in the NE corner
of the island, next to a mountain. There may be others as well. You will also
need crystallized manna to "rub" on the staff. Raw manna can be found by left
clicking on certain crystal growths out in the world.
Q: My health is suffering mysteriously while traveling through the SW corner
of the island!
A: There is a dangerous area in the SW corner of the island. You may not pass
through this area until you have found the pillars to the North and freed Pug.
Q: Where is the Cup of Rlln Skrr?
A: The cup of Rlnn Skrr is located near the SE corner of the island. You will
find it in a dwelling, heavily guarded by Panth-Tiandns.
Q: Where is Pug?
A: You will find Pug in the NE area of the island, in a dwelling next to a
main road. (HINT: If you return the cup of Rlnn Skrr to the pillar of
Dhatsavan, then click on the pillar again you will be teleported to Pug's
location.)
Q: I've freed Pug but can't locate his daughter Gamina!
A: Gamina is trapped in a crystal cage in an underground cavern. The entrance
to the cavern is west of the three bridges, and on the north side of the
river.
Q: How do I defeat the Wind Elementals in the underground cavern?
A: The Wind Elementals you will encounter in the underground cavern can ONLY
be killed with a spell called "Strength Drain" (This spell is located in the
SW corner of the island.) Because the Wind Elementals regain strength and
health every turn, you must deplete them completely in order to kill them. The
easiest way to do this is to have both Pug and Owyn cast the spell on the same
creature. If the first blast doesn't kill it, the second surely will.
The Sidequests
Q : Is there any sidequest in this chapter ?
A : There are no more sidequests starting from this chapter. Your objection is
clear enough and you won't find any person at all in this journey.
Chapter 9 : Mad Gods Rage
Q: What is my objective in chapter nine?
A: Owyn, Gorath and Pug must prevent Makala from reaching the Lifestone. This
means they will have to find and kill the six spellweavers that the Tsurani
Great One brought with him from Kelewan. It is important to retrieve a key
called a "Ward of Ralen-Sheb" from the body of a goblin in the first room you
encounter. Now prepare yourself for killing fields......
Q: Where is the Oracle of Aal?
A: The Oracle of Aal can be found by going through the North door of the first
room you come to. The Oracle of Aal is located in the NE area of the caverns.
Q: Where is the entrance to the second level?
A: The second level entrance is on the NE side of the caverns. Head through
the East door and avoid the deadends to reach the entrance.
Q: Where are The Six?
A: It will be necessary to search nearly every room and passageway to find The
Six. You will discover they are all heavily guarded.
Q: How do I defeat the enemies in the final combat?
A: The cup of Rlln Skrr may be used over and over again in Chapter Nine to
learn spells. Pug will eventually learn every spell in the game, but this will
take time and use up a lot of rations. Just use SKIN DRAGON and FIRESTORM
repeatedly and you'll destroy Makala once and for all !!!!

within this place,I saw a wavering face, Staring back at me.
* SPURS : We travel much, yet prisoners are, And close confined, to boot.
Yet with any horse we will keep pace, And always go on foot.
* GALLOWS : When people come for me to meet, They come to me with heavy
feet. The one I hold, When I get my chance, Will turn and spin, And start
to dance.
* FOG : When it comes in, From sea to shore, Twenty paces you'll see, No
less, no more.
* BARK : Like dogs shouting at the moon, Or armor worn by the trees. Like
a sharply spoken command, Or a tiny vessel upon the seas.

Hints Page
This is the full walkthrough of the best RPG game in the history. You can
solve all the sidequests, gain all the scrolls from throughout the area, know
all the stories inside, and even get the codes for the cheat chest. I try to
make these hints as thorough as possible. For the sidequests, you can try them
in any order you like. I've just put them in the sidequest section in every
chapter. I've played this game 3 times and still don't get bored with it. So,
buckle your belt and get ready for the ADVENTURE of a life time.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 1 : Into a Dark Night
Q: What is my objective in chapter one?
A: Locklear and Owyn escort a Moredhel prisoner named Gorath, to Krondor. The
strategic and political importance of this trip South will become clear soon
enough...
Q: Where is Krondor?
A: Krondor is the Southernmost city in the Kingdom of Midkemia. If you are
having trouble finding it, refer to the color map included in your box. You
will find it along the coast of the Bitter Sea, just East of Sorcerer's isle.
Q: How do I open the Moredhel word locks?
A: Spin the tumblers on the chest until they spell the correct answer to the
riddle! All of the riddles and their answers are available at the end of this
walkthrough
Q: How do I get past the magical trap South of Zun?
A: South of Zun you will encounter a magical trap with four crystals that rise
out of the ground. You may click on your RETREAT button, (it could take
several tries), and bypass this trap, taking another route to Krondor; or you
could attempt to "solve" the puzzle. In this case, walking between like
colored crystals will trigger a magical lightning bolt that could kill a
member of your party. Try walking around the deadly pairs. Tap the "G" key on
your keyboard if you need extra help.
Q: My characters suddenly became sick or poisoned. Why?
A: Be sure to "examine" every package of rations you find in the world. Click
on the object with your right mouse button, then pay close attention to the
information in the upper left corner of the display. If your characters DO
become poisoned you will have to find some anti-venom, or pay for a cure in a
local temple. Restoratives and plenty of rest will also help heal this
condition. Getting "sick" from eating spoiled rations can usually be overcome
by sleeping for more than 12 hours.
Q: What should I do at Krondor?
A: When you get close to Krondor, you will be prompted as to whether you want
to continue following the road that leads toward the castle. Answer "YES" then
wait until the picture of the castle appears. Move your cursor over this
picture and you will see it change to words like "SHOP", "INN" and "PALACE."
If you left click when the cursor says "palace" you will learn that the gates
have been jammed. Move your cursor down to the cliff face beneath the gates
and you will find an alternate entrance into the castle.
Q: I'm in the sewer. Where is James?
A: You will not be able to get into the palace from the sewers until you have
found a character named James. He has been cornered by a group of Nighthawks
(wearing black) in the NW corner of the sewer network. You must kill them,
then head down the side passage that branches off to the North.
Q: Which grate leads up to the palace?
A: James will give you a key to unlock one of the grates leading up into the
palace. (The key will show up with your other keys automatically.) You'll find
the grate in a room East of where you found James. When you see a ladder,
click on it with your left mouse button. From the "lock screen" drag James'
key to the lock and release your button. (HINT: Try right clicking on the lock
for more information.) If you've found the correct ladder, the lock will open
and you will have successfully completed the first chapter!

can find Arlie first. Go to the house with 2 corn fields near Sloops. Take
some spoiled rations with you (you can buy it in Silden, if you can't find any
around) and approach the house. Solve the trap poles. Tell him that the
governor of Romney wants to speak to him.
Q: Who was responsible for killing the King's men at the Black Sheep vern?
A: You will uncover many clues by talking to the people in and around Romney,
but you will learn the most valuable information by heading North toward the
town of Kenting Rush. Check out the Temple of Kahooli North of town and talk
to the Priest.
Q: How do I get the priests at the Temple of Kahooli to give me formation?
A: You won't learn anything at the temple of Kahooli until you have proven you
are pious in the eyes of their god. To do this you must drop ALL your food in
a bag, then use the ENCAMP option until all your characters are "starving."
Only then should you enter the temple and talk to the priest.
Q: Where is Navon Du Sandau?
A: The priests at the temple of Kahooli will implicate Navon Du Sandau as the
leader of the Nighthawks and the man responsible for slaying the King's
soldiers. You will find him on the road, in or around the town of Kenting
Rush.
Q: I've killed Navon Du Sandau. Where are the Nighthawk Headquarters?
A: Having killed Navon Du Sandau you must now find evidence of Nighthawk
involvement in a Moredhel attack on the Kingdom...to take back to Prince
Arutha in Krondor. You may find what you seek behind the waterfall, which is
just North of the Temple of Banath, between Cavall Keep and Prank's Stone. It
will be down a dirt road that branches West off the main road.
Q: How do I get through the locked door entrance to the Nighthawk
Headquarters?

A: Head back to Kenting Rush and attempt to use the well on the South side of
town.
Q: How do I unlock the virtue well?
A: The lock on the well in Kenting Rush can only be opened with a "virtue
key." You will find such a key in the shop in Kenting Rush. There is also a
key located in a grave North of Prank's Stone, next to the river.
Q: How do I obtain the evidence I need against the nighthawks?
A: Once you've entered the caverns behind the waterfall, head NE. You will
need Navon Du Sandau's cellar key to get into his room. Once inside, you will

about the murderers in Romney.
Q : Ivan's chess move, how I can defeat him ?
A : Remember Ivan from Malac Cross ? When you've met Navon Du Sandau at
Kenting Rush, you can ask him for his special chess move. Then if it's not
enough, try to find Brother Marc at the Abbey of Sarth. Ask him for the most
powerfull move in the game of chess : Abbor's Turn. Now you can go back to
Malac's Cross and challenge Ivan for a game of chess. Don't forget to bring
some emerald for the betting. You'll received an expensive emerald as a
reward. Note : if you ask Brother Marc about the nighthawks, you can buy Final
Rest spell for 100 sovereigns (that's 1/3 price from the shop).
Q : Where is the most complete magic shop in the world of Krondor ?
A : Look for a shop in the middle of the east forest between Prank Stone and
Caval Keep, Dabeh's Fanciful Trinkets. He sold lots of useful spells like
Final Rest, Nacre Cicatrix, The unseen, Nightfingers, Unfortunate Flux, Bane
of Black Slayers, Fetters of Rhime, and Stardusk.
Q : The Magic Test, what's the answer of the magic test in Kenting Rush ?
A : In the first house on the left when you enter Kenting Rush, there's a
magician who'll bet his Lightning Staff with a test. The answer is : Yes, No,

(near the river between Silden and Sloop) and Eyes of Ishap (near the HOLES
chest), and learn about the most powerful sword in the game : The Guarda

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 4 : Marked for Death
Q: What is my objective in chapter four?
A: Owyn and Gorath must escape from the dungeons at Sar-Sargoth and then fight
their way South to The Teeth of the World...and freedom!
Q: How do I escape the dungeons at Sar-Sargoth?
A: The door South of your starting location when the chapter begins, is the
only way to get to the upper level of the mine. To open that door you will
need to find an interdictor key. You may find an interdictor key by going
through the East door. You will need a Guildis Thorn key to open the East
door. Once through the South door, simply head south, then west. The upper
level is much smaller then then other levels. The exit is NE of the airway.
Q: How do I get out of the Northlands?
A: The easiest and most painless way to get out of the Northlands is to find
Irmelyn in the Giant's Broth Tavern in Armangar. He will ask you to rescue a
character named Obkhar from the naphtha mines nearby.
Q: Where is Obkhar or the naphtha mines?
A: The naphtha mines are located NE of Armangar. Go around the North side of
the mountains separating the river and the road, then follow the river South.
You can squeeze between the river and the mountains and enter a secluded
canyon. The entrance to the naphtha mines is across the bridge. Obkhar is
located NE of the cave entrance. (HINT: Do NOT attempt to light a torch in the
naphtha mines!!! Use Owyn's Candleglow spell, or a Bracer of Prandur to create
artificial light.)
Q: I've rescued Obkhar from the naphtha mines and received my reward. I can't
find Cullich!
A: Cullich can be found in a house South of Caern and West of the crossroads
that lead to Raglam and Wyke. Use your brass spyglass, or have Owyn cast an
Eyes of Ishap spell if you are still having trouble.
Q: Where is Moreaulf?
A: Moreaulf is located in the town of Harlech in one of the Northern
dwellings.
Q: How do I speak with Moreaulf?
A: You will need to cast the spell "And the Light Shall Lie" in order to speak
with him. (Only Cullich can teach you this short duration spell. HINT: It can
be cast several times in succession to increase the duration.) Moreaulf will
only give you the password for the guards on the bridge if you have talked to
them first.
Q: How do I cross the bridge that leads out of the Northlands?
A: Before you talk to Moreaulf (using the spell "And the Light Shall Lie, of
course) you should attempt to cross the bridge by heading south past Armangar.
This way you will be able to ask him about a "password." Once you have
received the password from Moreaulf, simply head back to the bridge and you
will be allowed across.
The Sidequests
Q : Are there any sidequests in this chapter ?
A : There are few sidequests here like the Nalar's Rib and finding few magic
items. You'll find lots of useful scrolls here, like :
* Inside the cavern in Sar Sargoth, behind the East door from the first
place you were captured, there's a trapped chest contain Evil Seek scroll
* Outside Sar Sargoth, to the southwest, there's a chest with word EGGS on
it. Inside you'll find Nightfinger scroll
* In a well, west of Sar Sargoth, you'll see a vision about magician. Go
to the tent nearby, and you'll find Unfortunate Flux scroll
* In an abandoned house in Wyke (first house on the left) you'll find The
Fetters of Rhime scroll
* In a tent west of Cullich house you'll find Wrath of Killian scroll
Q: Where is Nalar's Rib?
A: Nalar's Rib is an extremely powerful, yet non-essential item that you may
want to spend some time looking for. It can be tricky to find. First, you must
collect the emerald and the note from the skull at Sar-Sargoth. Then, when you
leave the city, head south -- off the main road -- until you hit a mountain
and a graveyard. Go around the West side of the mountain and continue heading
south until you trigger a magical trap with three Ogre magicians in it. Once
this is dealt with, head SW and look for a large stone slab among a group of
trees. Nalar's Rib will kill all the Nalar's tribe in the forest, so you'll
get an easier combat after using that.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 5 : When Rivers Run Blood
Q: What is my objective in chapter five?
A: James, Locklear and Patrus help Duke Martin and Baron Gabot prepare a
defense for the impending Moredhel attack on Northwarden. The first place you
should go is back to Northwarden to talk with Baron Gabot. Then head south and
look for Duke Martin, he won't be too far from the castle.
Q: I'm having trouble with the three chests Duke Martin told me about.
A: The three chests Duke Martin tells you to find aren't far away. Head NW and
walk around the hills if you have to. When you find the chests the wordlock
answers are: "onion", "outside" and "door." The only poison that will work on
the rations is "coltari" poison, which can be purchased nearby. You must put
the rations in your inventory, poison them, then return them to each chest.
Q: How can I help Tamney the Minstrel?
A: Tamney the Minstrel can be found in a barn near the town of Dencamp on the
Teeth. To open the barn door, at least one member of the party must have a
STRENGTH rating of 30 or more. If this is a problem, you can buy a strength
booster called "Fadamor's Formula" at a shop nearby. The geomancy stones
Tamney asks about are in a cavern East of Dencamp. There are two side roads
that lead North to the cave entrance. Once inside you will find the stones in
a chest to the North.
Q: How do I get past the goblins guarding the pass into the Northlands?
A: There are FAR too many goblins guarding the entrance from the Kingdom into
the Northlands. You have no other choice but to pay them what they are asking.
The quickest way to raise the money is by selling the diamonds you got from
Tamney. It might be worth your while to search around for a shop that will
give you the best price.
Q: Where can I find the war plans in Raglam?
A: Captain Kroldech is occupying one of the houses in Raglam, and he has the
plans. To get the plans away from him, talk to the engineer who lives in the
house next to the tavern in Raglam.
Q: How can I make the engineer tell me where the missing catapult part is?
A: The engineer will only talk to the group if Patrus plays the lute POORLY.
The trick here is to lower Patrus' barding skill. The easiest and safest way
to do that is to get him drunk!
Q: I fired the catapult. What do I do next?
A: The engineer will tell you where to find the missing catapult part.
Retrieve it from the box near the river (be careful, it is trapped), then head
to the catapult and click on it with your left mouse button. Once the catapult
has been activated, head back to Raglam and click on Kroldech's house. The
plans are inside.
Q: Where can I find the invisible Moredhel spellcasters?
A: After returning to Duke Martin with the Kroldech's plans, the Duke will
give you one more task. This one will involve finding six invisible Moredhel
spellcasters and eliminating them. (They are SE of Dencamp on the Teeth, near
a house and well, which are both South of the main road.)
Q: How do I defeat the six Moredhel spellcasters?
A: THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DIFFICULT COMBAT SCENARIO and it may be necessary to
try it many times before you succeed. Here are some tips: Use restoratives
before the combat to boost your characters up to full HEALTH, and use them
during combat if possible. Move your fighters into their ranks -- they can't
use their magic if you are standing right next to them. Also, make sure your
armor and weapons are in peak condition, and if you have any potions or weapon
or armor enhancers -- use them!
The Sidequests
Q : What is the sidequest in this chapter ?
A : There's no sidequest in this chapter, but you can find magic scroll and
one deadly sword around, like :
* Black Nimbus spell from the troops near the south border to the Prank
Stone. Defeat them and search for their belongings
* The sword of Lims Kragma, this is the second powerful sword for human
race. You'll find it along with the plans of the Moredhel in Kroldech's
house in Raglam
* There are minor jobs like : accept the night duty job at Northwarden
(you'll learn about how the Moredhel can go inside the castle and receive
an Euliko Armor as a reward), find 2 notes near the south border of Caval

message burned onto the wall in Pug's room at Krondor: The Book of Macros.
When the chapter begins, search the sewers carefully.
Q: How do I get through the sewers under Krondor?

Chapter 7 : The Long Ride
Q: What is my objective in chapter seven?
A: James, Locklear and Patrus search the Dimwood forest for the Rift Machine.
To start, head SE when the chapter begins, and cross the small bridge when you
come to it. Head SE from the bridge until you encounter Duke Martin. If you
continue to head SE you will also run into Obkhar. Both will give helpful
information.
Q: What is the password to cross the bridge guarded by goblins?
A: The password for the bridge can be found in a Moredhel lock chest in the NE
corner of the forest. The answer to the lock chest is "snowflake."
Q: I'm across the goblin bridge. What do I do now?
A: Once you've crossed the bridge you will have to find and talk to Moreaulf.
Head East along the river until you run into him.
Q: Where is the chest described by Moreaulf?
A: The chest is located in the SW corner of the forest in a box canyon. The
answer to the wordlock puzzle is "victory."
Q: I've opened the chest that Moreaulf described, but still see no sign of the
magical item that will destroy the Rift Machine.
A: You will need to find Squire Phillip. Look for him due North of the chest,
but it will be necessary to go around several mountains and foothills. He is
heavily guarded so be careful!
Q: Where is the Rift Machine?
A: The Rift Machine is located near the center of the forest on a peninsula
surrounded by rivers and mountains. One of the mountains is just an illusion,
conjured up by enemy magicians to hide the location of the machine. This
mountain must be walked through.
Q: How do I defeat the enemies surrounding the Rift Machine?
A: Goblins are particularly susceptible to the Mind Melt spell. If you don't
already possess this spell it might be a good idea to find it. The other
option would be to take a chance on Rorics Seal. This magical item will
automatically cast Mind Melt, but there is about a 30% chance it will backfire
and affect the caster instead.

Chapter 8 : Of Lands A Far
Q: What is my objective in chapter eight?
A: Owyn and Gorath search for Pug and Gamina on a hostile, alien world. It
would be a good idea to head north when the chapter begins. Find the
marble-looking pillars and click on them. It would also be a good idea to
stock up on food...you'll need it in chapter nine!
Q: How do I use magic in chapter eight?
A: To use magic in this strange world, Owyn will first have to find a crystal
staff. You can find a crystal staff in one of the dwellings in the NE corner
of the island, next to a mountain. There may be others as well. You will also
need crystallized manna to "rub" on the staff. Raw manna can be found by left
clicking on certain crystal growths out in the world.
Q: My health is suffering mysteriously while traveling through the SW corner
of the island!
A: There is a dangerous area in the SW corner of the island. You may not pass
through this area until you have found the pillars to the North and freed Pug.
Q: Where is the Cup of Rlln Skrr?
A: The cup of Rlnn Skrr is located near the SE corner of the island. You will
find it in a dwelling, heavily guarded by Panth-Tiandns.
Q: Where is Pug?
A: You will find Pug in the NE area of the island, in a dwelling next to a
main road. (HINT: If you return the cup of Rlnn Skrr to the pillar of
Dhatsavan, then click on the pillar again you will be teleported to Pug's
location.)
Q: I've freed Pug but can't locate his daughter Gamina!
A: Gamina is trapped in a crystal cage in an underground cavern. The entrance
to the cavern is west of the three bridges, and on the north side of the
river.
Q: How do I defeat the Wind Elementals in the underground cavern?
A: The Wind Elementals you will encounter in the underground cavern can ONLY
be killed with a spell called "Strength Drain" (This spell is located in the
SW corner of the island.) Because the Wind Elementals regain strength and
health every turn, you must deplete them completely in order to kill them. The
easiest way to do this is to have both Pug and Owyn cast the spell on the same
creature. If the first blast doesn't kill it, the second surely will.
The Sidequests
Q : Is there any sidequest in this chapter ?
A : There are no more sidequests starting from this chapter. Your objection is
clear enough and you won't find any person at all in this journey.
Chapter 9 : Mad Gods Rage
Q: What is my objective in chapter nine?
A: Owyn, Gorath and Pug must prevent Makala from reaching the Lifestone. This
means they will have to find and kill the six spellweavers that the Tsurani
Great One brought with him from Kelewan. It is important to retrieve a key
called a "Ward of Ralen-Sheb" from the body of a goblin in the first room you
encounter. Now prepare yourself for killing fields......
Q: Where is the Oracle of Aal?
A: The Oracle of Aal can be found by going through the North door of the first
room you come to. The Oracle of Aal is located in the NE area of the caverns.
Q: Where is the entrance to the second level?
A: The second level entrance is on the NE side of the caverns. Head through
the East door and avoid the deadends to reach the entrance.
Q: Where are The Six?
A: It will be necessary to search nearly every room and passageway to find The
Six. You will discover they are all heavily guarded.
Q: How do I defeat the enemies in the final combat?
A: The cup of Rlln Skrr may be used over and over again in Chapter Nine to
learn spells. Pug will eventually learn every spell in the game, but this will
take time and use up a lot of rations. Just use SKIN DRAGON and FIRESTORM
repeatedly and you'll destroy Makala once and for all !!!!
