| |
| Be careful of falling down into the green slime as that will drain what is in your life meter.
| |
| | |
| As you enter, follow the path. Be aware that some of the
| |
| Shadow Demons are flying around in this room. Once you come
| |
| to a choice of directions, notice the Chalice is to the
| |
| left, but go to the right. At a cave entrance, you will find
| |
| a GARGOYLE. Speak with it.
| |
| | |
| As you try to enter the cave, you will see two, large
| |
| crystals block it. You can smash these open easily. One
| |
| holds a BAG OF COINS and the other holds an Imp. As you
| |
| enter the cave, you will see you can go in two possible
| |
| directions. Go to the right.
| |
| | |
| Remember you can kill bats, but they do not increase your
| |
| Chalice percentage.
| |
| | |
| The next room has another Imp trapped in a crystal as well
| |
| as a thief Imp which is wandering around the room. (Remember
| |
| that if an Imp is not holding a torch, it can steal from
| |
| you. Kill the Imp to retrieve your item if it is stolen.)
| |
| Go to the left. You will notice a spinning crystal. Beware
| |
| of its beams. Walk in the same direction it moves, dodging
| |
| from side to side as necessary, and pick up the BAG OF COINS
| |
| and the EARTH RUNE. Then, leave this room.
| |
| | |
| With the room where you found the Earth Rune to your left,
| |
| go forward. You will find more Imps in crystal, as well as
| |
| Rhinotaurs. Take note that the Rhinotaurs will free
| |
| themselves from the crystals if you get close to them. You
| |
| also will find a chest with a skull and crossbones. Feel
| |
| free to open it for the time bomb which will kill a couple
| |
| enemies for you.
| |
| | |
| Walk up onto the path of gray rock. In a crystal with a
| |
| Rhinotaur, you find a SILVER SHIELD. Near there, you find a
| |
| BAG OF COINS. Drop back down onto the tan colored floor.
| |
| Then, go to the right and go up.
| |
| | |
| You should enter a room with several levels. Go to the left
| |
| to pick up a BAG OF COINS. On the next level, to the far
| |
| right, you will find a FOUNTAIN. Be careful of the thief
| |
| Imp. On the top level, on the far left, you will find a
| |
| MERCHANT GARGOYLE. On the far right, you will find the
| |
| FIRST BOOK.
| |
| | |
| Walk into the green hand to use the Earth Rune which will
| |
| open up the gate. In this next room, smash open a crystal to
| |
| the left to pick up a CHEST OF COINS. You should see a
| |
| waterfall. Walk into and past it.
| |
| | |
| This next room has four levels of ground. Mentally, number
| |
| them from one to four from left to right. You start out on
| |
| level 1. Read the SECOND BOOK there.
| |
| | |
| On level 1, you also find a BAG OF COINS, an ENERGY VIAL, a
| |
| BAG OF COINS, and a CHEST OF COINS. Make a running jump
| |
| across to the lowest level over on the right to jump to
| |
| level 4. On level 4, you find a BAG OF COINS. Jump up to
| |
| level 3 to get a BAG OF COINS, an ENERGY VIAL, a BAG OF
| |
| COINS, a CHEST OF COINS and the STAR RUNE. Jump up to level
| |
| 2 to get a BAG OF COINS, a CHEST OF COINS, and a BAG OF
| |
| COINS. Then, drop back down to level 1.
| |
| | |
| Equip your Hammer and use it on the ground. Notice the
| |
| ceiling falls on level 2. This is how you fight the Dragon.
| |
| You cannot hurt the Dragon with your weapons. You must cause
| |
| the ceiling to fall on his head.
| |
| | |
| Hit the ground on level 1 to hit level 2.
| |
| Hit the ground on level 2 to hit level 3.
| |
| Hit the ground on level 3 to hit level 4.
| |
| Hit the ground on level 4 to hit level 1.
| |
| | |
| On level 1, you should see the face of a Dragon on the wall.
| |
| Stand in front of it and use the Dragon Gem from your
| |
| inventory. You will use one. You then have to use the other
| |
| Dragon Gem from your inventory. This will summon the Dragon.
| |
| | |
| The Dragon sticks just his head out of the holes on the
| |
| different levels. He starts on level 2. He moves to level 3,
| |
| then to level 4, then to level 1, then back to level 2, etc.
| |
| Use the time in-between his attacks to try to move to an
| |
| appropriate level so that you can bring the ceiling down
| |
| onto his head. Be careful of his fire as it sets you on fire
| |
| and you burn for awhile before the flames go out.
| |
| | |
| Once you defeat the Dragon, you will see he leaves an object
| |
| behind. Walk into it to take the DRAGON ARMOR. As he said,
| |
| it will protect you from fire. This means you can walk
| |
| through fire. It also means if you are set on fire, if you
| |
| equip the Dragon Armor, it will put out the fire. It allows
| |
| you to attack with fire. It cannot be powered up with the
| |
| Square button. When you equip the Dragon Armor, it will
| |
| unequip your shield. However, you can still equip your
| |
| shield.
| |
| | |
| Return to level 1 and exit. From as you walk through the
| |
| waterfall, go to the right. This leads you into a room which
| |
| has monsters trapped in crystals. It also has some bats. As
| |
| you walk farther into this room, you find a pool of water.
| |
| Do not fall into it as it will drain what is in your life
| |
| meter. Walk around it to the left, but do not settle on one
| |
| spot. You will notice some of the floor sinks as you are on
| |
| it. Stay on such places long enough and you will be sinking
| |
| all the way into the pool. Pick up a BAG OF COINS. (To be
| |
| extra safe, you may want to make walking jumps over those
| |
| pieces of the floor. They are visibly different from the
| |
| rest of the floor.) At the exit to the room, make a walking
| |
| jump to the right to get another BAG OF COINS. Then jump
| |
| back and enter the next room.
| |
| | |
| There are more monsters in crystals here and all but the
| |
| last one free themselves. You find a CHEST OF COINS in a
| |
| crystal with a Rhinotaur. Walk through this room of crystals
| |
| and drop down the slide at the end.
| |
| | |
| You should see the spinning crystal in front of you. Go left
| |
| and into the next room. Then, go to the right. Walk into the
| |
| yellow hand to use the Star Rune. The floor should rise so
| |
| you can cross. (Dropping down onto the floor before it is
| |
| raised is like dropping into a void.) Kill the enemies here
| |
| and you should be able to collect the Chalice. Be careful
| |
| of the thief Imp.
| |
| | |
| Walk back to where you used the Star Rune. With the Star
| |
| Rune behind you, walk forward into the next room and go to
| |
| the right to return to the very first room. Follow the path.
| |
| When you reach a choice, go to the right and you will find
| |
| the CHALICE.
| |
| | |
| Return to where you used the Star Rune. Cross over again and
| |
| leave this level.
