******************************************************************
4. RITE OF DESTINY
******************************************************************
SILMARIA
After some rest, you return to the Hall Of Kings. Logos announces
the next Rite - The Rite Of Destiny. You must travel to the Island Of
Delos, seek out the Sybil to learn your destiny. You must return with
proof that you have spoken to the Oracle.
After you are escorted from the Hall Of Kings, look at the Notice
Board and read all the new notices. Now head downstairs to the
Main Square.
Go to Wolfie’s stall and talk to Wolfie about everything. If you have
not already done so, buy BALLOON PAINTING from Wolfie.
Go to the bank, enter the bank, and talk to the Banker. Make A
Transaction, and deposit roughly 2000 into your account, making
sure you still have enough money to buy supplies. Now leave the
bank.
Go to the Magic Shop and enter it. Talk to Shakra about every-
thing. He tells you that Delos is too far to get there by boat or
wings, so you’ll need to find another way. Leave the Magic Shop.
Talk to Marrak at the Fruit Stall. Show him the BALLOON
PAINTING. You explain to him that you’re trying to make a HOT AIR
BALLOON, and that you need a BRAZIER to use as a heat source for
the BALLOON. He agrees to sell you his spare BRAZIER.
Go to the Apothecary. Salim and Julanar tell you that something has
happened to Erasmus - he’s been drugged, and no-one can wake
him. Give the drugged CHOCOLATE BOX to Salim. He’s glad to have
this, so he can start making an antidote to the drug. Talk to Julanar
about everything. When you say Goodbye to her, she gives you some
MAGIC SEEDS. Talk to Salim about everything. Give the HYDRA
SCALES you got from the last Rite, to Salim. Now leave the
Apothecary.
Make your way to the Famous Adventure’s place. Talk to Famous
Adventurer about everything, and take a mental note of the poem he
tells you. When you’re ready, leave Famous Adventurer.
Head along to the Adventurer’s Guild. Look at Notice Board and read
the new notices. Talk to Toro about everything. Talk to Elsa about
everything. Leave the Adventurer’s Guild.
Return to Gnome Ann’s Inn.
GNOME ANN’S INN
Show BALLOON PAINTING to Gnome Ann, then give her the spare
SHEET you got from your bedroom. She agrees to sew it into a
balloon-shape, and tells you it will be ready tomorrow. Now talk to
Ann, and Tell About Wolfie. If Wolfie could paint her Inn, it would be
more appealing to potential customers. Give MAGIC SEEDS to
Gnome Ann, and tell her they are fast-growing SEEDS. Now leave
the Inn.
SILMARIA
Do what you like for the rest of the day. When it’s evening, return to
Gnome Ann’s Inn.
GNOME ANN’S INN
Sit down at the table, and Gnome Ann will bring a meal out for you.
Now go on up to your room.
Lie down in the bed and Sleep Until Morning. The next morning,
leave your room and go back downstairs.
Gnome Ann gives you back the SEWN SHEET you gave her yester-
day. Sit down at the table and Gnome Ann will bring your breakfast.
Now leave the Inn.
SILMARIA
Make sure you have at least 7 AMPHORAS of HIPPOCRENE WATER.
If you don’t, buy some more AMPHORAS from Wolfie, then head up
to Pegasus Peaks at top of the map to fill them with HIPPOCRENE
WATER.
Make your way to Science Island, using the Gondola to get across to
the island.
SCIENCE ISLAND
Enter the lab and talk to whichever scientist is there about every-
thing. Now go up the lift to the First Floor, where Gort is, then head
out through the Exit which is slightly to the left.
You’re outside, on a crane platform. SAVE YOUR GAME HERE.
There is a gondola below you that you have to get out of the water -
this is the base for your hot air balloon. Look at the nearby monitor,
and change the settings as so:
Crane Extension - 100
Crane Rotation - 55
Claw Position - Closed
RUN
The crane picks up the gondola and places it on the platform beside
you. Use SEWN SHEET, ROPE, GOO, BRAZIER, and TINDERBOX on
the gondola. SUCCESS! Your hot air balloon is flying!
Guide your HOT AIR BALLOON North-West, until you reach Delos.
DELOS
Once you reach Delos, simply click on the HOT AIR BALLOON to land.
There are 2 icons on this island. Click on the lower icon to visit the
Dryads. Give some HIPPOCRENE WATER to each of the 7 Dryads.
Wait a few moments, and they’ll sing to you. You get so caught up in
the moment, you start dancing! When the song is over, watch as
some MAGIC WOOD is created by the Dryads. Wait a minute… didn’t
Shakra say you needed MAGIC WOOD to create a MAGIC STAFF?
Walk left, and take the MAGIC WOOD. Now leave the Dryads.
Now go to the top icon to see the Sybil. SAVE YOUR GAME HERE.
A stone statue of the Sibyl stands in her temple. Walk right to the
pool, and see the BLACK LOTUS floating in the pool. There is a
toppled pillar in front of the pool. Click on the pillar to read the
inscription - this is very important, otherwise you won’t be able to
complete the next Rite. Now take BLACK LOTUS from the pool,
then throw a DRACHMA into the pool. This wakes up the Sibyl, and
she tells you your destiny. Sounds kinda scary! Anyway, she leaves a
PROOF OF DESTINY disc on the floor - take it. Now leave the Sibyl.
Now you have to return to Silmaria, but DON’T use the MYSTIC
MAGNETS this time. Click on the HOT AIR BALLOON, and fly South-
East back to Silmaria.
SILMARIA
It’s probably pretty late by now, so return to Gnome Ann’s Inn.
GNOME ANN’S INN
Head up to your room, lie on the bed, and Sleep Until Morning. The
next morning, leave your room and head back downstairs.
As soon as you leave your room… WOW! What a difference! The
place has been painted, and it’s nice and bright and colourful! Wolfie
is sitting here - talk to him about everything. Talk to Gnome Ann
about everything. Now sit down at the table, and she’ll bring your
breakfast for you. When you’re ready, leave the Inn.
SILMARIA
Head up to the Main Square. Wolfie’s back in his stall, so talk to him
about everything.
Go along to the Magic Shop. Talk to Shakra about everything. Now
give MAGIC WOOD to Shakra, and watch as you and he create the
MAGIC STAFF. Notice how your Mana Bar has now changed to a
Staff Bar. Nice work! Now leave the Magic Shop.
Go along to the Apothecary. Talk to Julanar about everything and
talk to Salim about everything. Give the BLACK LOTUS to Salim -
he’ll be able to use this to make an antidote to the Assassin’s poison.
Leave the Apothecary.
Make your way up to the Hall Of Kings and give PROOF OF DESTINY
to the guards at the gate.
Logos declares the Rite Of Destiny ended, with you, Hero, as the
winner.
You are given a chance to rest, before the next Rite starts.
******************************************************************
5. RITE OF COURAGE
******************************************************************
SILMARIA
After some rest, you return to the Hall Of Kings. Logos announces
the next Rite - The Rite Of Courage. You must enter Hades, face the
Guardian Cerberus, and return with WATER FROM THE RIVER STYX.
This will prove your courage.
After you are escorted from the Hall Of Kings, look at the Notice
Board and read all the new notices. Now head downstairs to the
Main Square.
Talk to Wolfie about everything.
Make your way back to Gnome Ann’s Inn.
GNOME ANN’S INN
Talk to Gnome Ann. She starts complaining about your girlfriend.
Wait… GIRLFRIEND? What girlfriend? Head on up to your room.
There’s a big CHOCOLATE BOX on the chair for you. Why would
anyone leave chocolate for you? Pick up the CHOCOLATE BOX, but
whatever you do, DON’T eat it. Now leave your room and leave the
Inn.
SILMARIA
Head down to Pholus’s Weapons Stall and talk to Pholus about
everything.
Continue along to the Famous Adventurer’s place. Talk to him about
everything - he gives you a hint as to how to get into Hades. Now
leave the Famous Adventurer.
Make your way up to Wolfie’s stall, and talk to him about everything.
Now talk to him again and Purchase Something. Buy 2 empty AMPHORAS from him - you’re going to need them when you’re in
Hades.
Go to the Magic Shop. This will be your last chance to enter this
shop, so as a Magic User, you should stock up now. Buy 50 MANA
POTIONS and 50 MANA PILLS. Now leave the Magic Shop.
Go right to Marrak’s Fruit Stall. Talk to Marrak, and Buy Things from
him. Buy GYRO, PEPPERONI PIZZA, ARTICHOKE PIZZA, and
SOKOLATAK.
Do what you like for the rest of the day, but keep an eye on the time.
When it’s evening, return to Gnome Ann’s Inn.
GNOME ANN’S INN
Sit down at the table and Ann will bring a meal for you. Now climb
up the stairs to your room.
Lie down in the bed and Sleep Until Morning. Next morning, leave
your room and go back downstairs.
Sit down at the table so that Ann can bring your breakfast. Now
leave the Inn.
SILMARIA
Make your way up to the Apothecary. Salim tells you that thanks to
the BLACK LOTUS you gave him, he was able to find an antidote for
the Assassin’s Poison. He replaces your old POISON CURE PILLS
with his new POISON CURE PILLS. Talk to Julanar about every-
thing. Talk to Salim about everything. Give the CHOCOLATE BOX
from your room to Salim, and he‘ll agree to see what he can find out
about them. Now buy 30 each of POISON CURE PILLS (yes, as well
as the ones you already have), STAMINA PILLS, and HEALING PILLS.
When you’re ready, leave the Apothecary.
Head back towards Gnome Ann’s Inn, but don’t enter it. Instead, go
through the portcullis gate. SAVE YOUR GAME HERE, then head
out into the Wilderness.
WILDERNESS
Head North-West, and go to the Dragon Pillar Icon that has a skull (a
little bit past Tinos). This is the Gateway to Hades.
GATEWAY TO HADES
Look at the dead guard next to the broken Dragon Pillar. Because he
was killed so violently, his blood is tainting the water here. Use an
AMPHORA to get some of the tainted water. Now follow the stream
left, until it enters the mountain. Use your AMPHORA WITH
TAINTED WATER in the stream here, and you’ll recite a verse. If you
haven’t read the verse in the Oracle’s Temple at Delos, this won’t
work. When you recite the verse, you’ll hear a crash of thunder, and
the Gates to Hades will be revealed. SAVE YOUR GAME HERE, then
try to enter Hades. As you approach the Gates, the Guardian
Cerberus will appear. Wow, he is big! And he’s mean!! And he won’t
let you into Hades!!! Talk to Cerberus about everything. Each of the
3 heads asks for a bribe - give them GYRO, PEPPERONI PIZZA, and
BOX OF CHOCOLATE. He’ll let you in now. Place your AURA spell
in your belt for quick access, then enter through the gates into
Hades.
HADES
As soon as you enter Hades, Cast AURA (so your life energy isn‘t
drained away), then SAVE YOUR GAME HERE. When the AURA
spell runs out, Cast it again, as many times as necessary while you
are in Hades. Now you‘re not a fighter, so avoid all the skeletons
and other monsters as much as possible. Run right, and continue
right, until you reach a dead-end, with a path far below you. Cast
LEVITATE to float down, then run through the arch on the right.
Run left through the giant dragon’s skeleton, and exit through it’s
mouth into the next area.
SAVE YOUR GAME HERE. This is where you’ll find the River Hades.
Run right down the bottom of the screen, and use an AMPHORA on
the edge of the whirlpool to collect LETHE WATER. Continue right
until the path ends (the path is hard to see, but it‘s there), and use
an AMPHORA on the river to collect STYX WATER.
Now you have both WATERS, retrace your steps, so you’re on the far
side of the River Hades. Now run right again until you see the Hall Of
Hades.
Make sure your Health and Stamina are at maximum, and SAVE
YOUR GAME HERE. Enter into the Hall Of Hades. The Guardian Of
The Dead stops you from entering, and tells you about two souls in
pain that are connected to you - the good fairy Erana, and the dark
Vampire Katrina. He gives you the chance to end the suffering of one
of them by restoring her to life (or you can choose to save neither,
but I don’t recommend that). Unfortunately, you can only save one -
the other soul will be condemned to oblivion! After you choose, you
are told there is a price - give your life for hers. Choose to Pay The
Price. You will be killed. But you will be brought back to life, but with
only half of your Health and Stamina. Now, time to get out of here.
Run left, and continue left, until you reach the mouth of the giant
dragon skeleton again.
Run right through the dragon skeleton, until you see the archway.
Run through the archway.
Run right until you see another archway - this is the Main Entrance,
so run through it.
GATEWAY TO HADES
You’ve escaped from Hades. The gate closes behind you, leaving no
trace of it ever being there.
Leave the area and go back out to the Wilderness.
WILDERNESS
Start heading back towards Silmaria, but don’t enter Silmaria. Your
Hot Air Balloon should be parked nearby. Click on it to enter, and
start flying. Now, where you go next depends on who you saved in
Hades.
- SAVED ERANA
If you saved Erana, fly North-East towards Lymnos. When you reach
Lymnos, simply click on the Hot Air Balloon to land it. Click on the
Erana’s Retreat Icon to enter that area. Walk left a little bit, and
Erana will appear. Talk to her about everything. Make sure to Ask
About Magic, and she teaches you the FIRST AID spell. Walk left a
little bit more, so you see the Fountain. Click on the Fountain, and
Drink From The Fountain to replenish your energy. Now leave
Erana’s Retreat, and head back into the Wilderness.
- SAVED KATRINA
If you saved Katrina, fly East towards Zante. When you reach Zante,
simply click on the Hot Air Balloon to land it. Click on the Katrina’s
Retreat Icon to enter that area. Walk left a little bit, click on the
door, and Knock On The Door. Katrina will appear, and she‘s been
restored to human - not Vampire. Talk to her about everything.
Make sure to Ask About Magic, and she teaches you the DRAGON
FIRE spell. Now leave Katrina’s Retreat, and head back into the
Wilderness.
WILDERNESS
Click on the Hot Air Balloon to start flying, and fly back to Silmaria.
Land the Balloon near Silmaria, then click on Silmaria to enter the
town again.
SILMARIA
Check the time - it’s probably really late now, so use MYSTIC
MAGNETS to return to your room at Gnome Ann’s Inn.
GNOME ANN’S INN
Lie down on the bed and Sleep Until Morning. When morning arrives,
leave your room.
Head downstairs and sit at the table so that Gnome Ann can bring
your breakfast. After breakfast, leave the Inn.
SILMARIA
Make your way up to the Apothecary in the Main Square. Talk to
Julanar about everything. Talk to Salim about everything. You learn
that the BOX OF CHOCOLATES you gave to Salim contained a very
strange drug he’d never seen before, and it left victims in a state of
‘Restless Sleep’. Give the LETHE WATER to Salim, so he can start
working on a cure for Erasmus and Shakra. Now leave the
Apothecary.
Head up to the Hall Of Kings and give STYX WATER to the guards at
the gate.
Logos declares the Rite Of Courage ended, with you, Hero, as the
winner.
You are given a chance to rest, before the next Rite starts.
