to raise the second blockade and release two droids. Press the button revealed
by the blockade's movement to collect a Strength potion (2 X 40). Pull the
third lever to move the second blockade down again. To open the door the
second lever must be pulled, so drink the Strength potion to push the blockade
back and pull the second lever. It is important to do this so that you have as
much time as possible left for the potion, as there are several useful things
you can do with the strength while you have it. Having pulled the lever go to room 5.

you can enter and leave the barred area. Go to room 6.

left. If you have run out of Strength, this is the least important thing that can
be done with it as the barred area can be escaped by jumping onto the lever
and over the bars. Do not use the other part of the Strength potion. Return to room 5.
In room
5 collect the emerald stone. Go to room 6.
In room

The two dark potions are Stamina potions. Pick one and the other will
disappear.
(kametyken: One of the dark potions got 1 x 200 the other 20 x 10 but only
the 20 x 10 potion can be boosted to 20 x 50(!) with a Bless Potion Spell -
so the this should be the potion you choose.)
Stand in front of the pentagram and throw the flask of blood at it to teleport to room 6.
In room
6 jump from pole to pole and collect the two small caskets. Be
careful, as a pole that has been landed on may shrink by a small length,
making the jump to a higher pole more difficult to judge. Open the caskets
and collect a Dispel Trap spell (3 X 1) and amethyst, ruby and tiger's eye
stones. Go to room 13.
In room
13 collect the green gems while avoiding the indicated floor tiles
as they teleport you to the barred area in room 5.

bone to allow you to get to the other side of the room. Jump over the balls
and collect the key to door 14/16. Pull the lever to open door 6/15. Use the
key in the lock to open the door, then go to room 15.
In room

tiger's eye stone. The diary reads:
DAY 2... I RECORD HERE THE GREAT INJUSTICE DONE TO ME BY MY FATHER.
I AM HELD PRISONER HERE EVEN THOUGH HE IS KING AND COULD FREE ME
IF HE SO WISHED. DAY 7... DUE TO HIS PARANOIA HE HAS LOCKED ME
HERE SUSPECTING I AM PLOTTING AGAINST HIM. I TRIED TO WARN HIM

I FEEL THE LOSS. DAY 60... A FACE APPEARED AT THE GRILL TODAY.
IT LOOKED LIKE THE WARD MARSHALL. HE LAUGHED AND SLAMMED
THE HATCH CLOSED. DAY 83... I HAVE BEEN BROUGHT NO FOOD SINCE I
SAW THAT MAN. I GROW WEAK. I DONT KNOW WHAT DAY IT IS BUT I AM
CLOSE TO DEATH. I HAVE EATEN BUGS AND DRUNK THE DRIPS THAT FALL
FROM THE CEILING. I CAN LAST NO LONGER. AS I HAVE BEEN BETRAYED
