Line 189:

Rune stones contain the earliest form of magical energy and were once used by the ancients to open gates and doorways. These stones can still be found today. For each lock, there will somewhere be a rune stone; when you find the correct one, place it in the lock, which looks like a begging hand.

NOTE: When in Dan's crypt, be sure to check out the handbooks and guides dotted around the chamber walls. Many of these books are updated as the adventure is completed and items collected, so a trip home once in a while might be a good idea. Also, keep an eye out for other books during the journey across Gallowmere; they might contain information that could get Dan out of a pickle.

====Combat====

There is only one way Sir Dan will ever silence the snickers of the true heroes of Gallowmere; he must prove his prowess and achieve success on the battlefield.

Now, you might think that being dead for so long would leave Sir Dan feeling rather stiff and out of sorts. However, without muscles to pull and ligaments to sprain, he's actually more agile than ever and able to pull off a wide variety of attacking moves.

''NOTE: Be sure to flip through the handbooks in Sir Dan's crypt: they will help you learn how to launch a range of attacks and use different weapons most effectively.''

=====MELLE WEAPONS=====

'''Quick Attack'''

Press X to execute a quick attack. This is often necessary when Sir Dan is being mobbed by a horde of enemies, but this attack is relatively weak and won't inflict maximum damage.

'''Slow Attack'''

Press Square to perform a slower, more harmful attack. Practice your timing to make sure you get these attacks in before an enemy is able to land a blow.

'''Combos'''

As well as the basic quick and slow attacks, each weapon has a sophisticated range of advanced attacks. You can learn how to use these advanced attacks by reading the revelant weapon handback, found in Sir Dan's crypt.

'''Power Up Attacks'''

Holding down either of the attack buttons for a period of time permits many weapons to summon additional power, allowing Sir Dan to execute more devastating attacks.

'''Ranged Weapons'''

When equipped with a ranged weapon such as a bow, a family of green sprites will appear to help Sir Dan succesfully hit his targets. The sprites fly ahead of Sir Dan leaving a green trail as they seek out adversaries; whenever an enemy comes within targeting range, their color will change to red.

''NOTE: Some weapons, like the [[spear]], can be used for both ranged and close-quarter combat. Experiment with these weapons to discover their strengths and weaknesses.''
