SIGHTSEEING AT THE CASTLE
Death finally agreed to take me to the Haunted Ruins. I hope it's as pretty as everyone says. This Dragon Armour stuff is top. Crossed the river of lava and barely broke a sweat.
Finally I made it into the Haunted Ruins. After locating the king's lost crown I stood face to face with my old pal, the genial and garrulous monarch.
Does EVERYONE have an angle? Old Kingy coughed up his chunk of Anubis mineral deposit. Then calmly informed me that I had to open some floodgates. Thereby releasing a deluge of lava beneath the castle, supposedly to destroy a certain horde of Shadow Demons. Someone is NOT going to be happy. And guess who'll be in the firing line?
Kingy P. opened a secret passage to the floodgate area, and in I went. That lever was mine for the pulling, baby. So I pulled it. With an inevitability that is really starting to get me down, this released two rather angry guardian golems.
Phew, somehow finished them off, then a mad dash for the exit. Managed to reach it just seconds before the whole edifice crashed down around me. There was much rejoicing in the eye-socket of Fortesque. I wish the little squirt would quit jumping around in there - it plays havoc with my sinusitis.

Chicken Herding Hint
TO THE FINDER OF THIS NOTE:
We are but humble farmers who have been captured by Zarok and used as a human shield. I am not complaining, it's a job I spose, but our poor livestock are starvin! Please kind stranger, take pity, they are but innocents and ignorant of the ways of men, let not our chickens starve.
Signed, Humble Farmer
Farmer Puzzle Hint
Zarok is using the local farmers as a human shield.
They dangle precariously over sharp spikes in the courtyard below.
At the first sign of trouble the Shadow Demons will attempt to sacrifice the captives by dropping them onto sharp spikes.
Move quickly, slay the demons on guard and save the farmers from a nasty death.
HAUNTED GALLOWMERE: A WALKING TOUR
The ghost of Peregrine, last King of Gallowmere has occasionally been seen wandering these very halls. The story goes that he mourns the passing of Gallowmere's golden age, his long departed friends and, most of all, his lost crown. It is said that if the crown were ever returned then King Peregrine could at last find rest.
