found him. Let me know if you can find the second shadow key here.
HALLS OF THE DEAD: Go to the NE or to the NW and search for secret passages. You'll find one, and will use your key to enter. You'll find four chests, containing a blessed chain mail, blessed boots and gloves, and a power elixir. Continue south, and you'll see the pit of soul gathering. Search around here, and you'll find the crown. Then run away (but not through the portal).
Once you get out, you'll give the crown to Decimus and friends. Head back to the fort. Yup, they lost it again. Talk with Quintus for a blessed ring of resistance. Go to your room to sleep. Get up and talk with Vibius, then with Gaius. Look's like you're going to Spire. On your way, the crones stop you and give you guidance.
SPIRE (C)
This is it. It's seems to me to be a bit more exciting with the
Romans than with the Celts. As you enter, the guards ignore you. Make you way to the south central, and you can get Carog, the goblin, to join you (he's actually a detriment). Search around, and you'll get hints for- something. Make your way to the guard quarters and pull the wheels, allowing you to go up or down the stairs.
Head west, fight the guards, and grab some crystal wands. Then look at the scrolls. They are very potent. Head east a bit, and you'll see stairs leading down to the reward guaranteed to the Celts. Break the crystals, and be happy. Additionally, from Zeviz- Either Luck 3, or
Tool Use 22, or Faerie Lore 8 are required to open the chest. Back up, and it's time to perform some tests. The easiest tests are the tests of balance (approach one of the altars- either evil or good, depending on what you've done), the test of knowledge (just try to read the books), and the stat tests. A quick note on the stat tests (from
Zeviz):
Nethergate tests (stats are total for the party):
Strength - 17
Dexterity - 25
Luck - 7
Intelligence - 25
They're all rather easy (but avoid the test of pain- that's just annoying). Some tests ask you a question. 12 runes are possible.
Once you're done, go to the stairs.
Sylak is waiting for you. Crud. You get sent to the Hedge maze, a real pain.
HEDGE MAZE. Don't bother with light sources, they don't work. One of the best things you can do is start a fire. Head west, then a north (following the flicker of light), and you'll light up the whole realm.
Phew. In the NE you'll find Crumb, and the SW you'll find Vlado. The walls here close off every now and then, but there's always a way out.
You'll have to run around a bit in order to get out, but eventually you can make it. Since this level is so much fun, I'll leave it to you to figure out. Once you exit, you can ascend to the final floor.
NETHER GATE. Delete Carog if you have him. He's a cowardly punk.
He's no longer useful. Go down, and hug the walls. In the SE you'll find some robes, which will hide you. Go up on the platform (Carog will tattle on you if he's in your party, making your life a bit more of a pain), and you have two options. Beat up Sylak enough that he brings down the gate, or steal the eye of Cathdoc. The latter is easier. Once done, all is well. Congratulations, you've just beaten the game with the Romans!
