                 The Black Gate/The Forge Of Virtue 
                              Solve

Trinsic:
-------

    After the earthquake, talk to Iolo and the Mayor, enter the 
house and take key on the dead body. Go to the two story house 
located NW of the town and talk to Christopher's son and let him 
join your party.  Go to the second floor of the house and open the 
chest with the key that you found on the dead body.  Take the money 
and scroll then go to the healer located SW of town and talk 
to a wounded guard (Gilberto) to find out infomation on the Crown 
Jewels.  Now go back to the Mayor and report to him the suspects and 
go thru the doc check.  Now you may leave town.  If you are 
playing evil, you could go to the fellowship house and take the 
golds in the bag and from the sealed box.  Also go to Gargan's 
house (where you could buy a ship deed) and get a gold bar and a 
sextant.  Now you're ready to leave town.  GO NORTH!

Paws:
-----

    Go to the House of Items and buy a sextant if you didn't get one 
yet (which is way cheaper than you buy from Gargan).  You could also 
buy some meat there and sell it to the cook in Lord British's 
Castle (you wouldn't make much money from it anyway).  Now, continue 
travel north to Britain.

Britain:
--------

    Go to Sentri's house.  Open a drawer in his bed room and get the
key.  Use key to unlock the metal door and get all armor and the great 
sword.  Talk to Sentri and let him join your party.  Take all the 
stuff from him, especially the two-handed sword.  Then kick him out 
of your party (tell him to go home).  Go to the restaurant to 
the east and talk to the green shirt guy (Shamino) and ask him to 
join party.  Go to Lord British's Castle and talk to him.  Go to his 
study room and get the key from a drawer then go to his bedroom and 
use the lever.  Enter the west entrance and go south.  Use the lever 
at the end of the hall way and go to the stair that lead you to the 
top of the castle. Go up!  Go to the NW corner on the top of the 
castle and use the key that you get from the study room to unlock 
it.  Take all the stuff you want in there, especially the spell 
book, then go down.  Talk to the Mage and buy some spell.  Unlock 
Magic and Time Stop are most important.  Go back to Sentri's house 
and ask him to join you again (at this moment, he must have another 
two-handed sword).  GO WEST! to Yew Forest.

Yew:
----

    On the way to go to Yew, many bandits will attack you.  Kill 
them and get all the stuff you want from their body.  Follow the 
trail until you pass the wooden bride.  Go to a house that has many 
logs in the front(Iolo would say "Home! Sweet Home!").  Enter the 
house and get all the things you want in there then get out and go 
west across the street and look for Tseramed.  Talk to him and ask 
him to join your party.  He also might give you some arrows.

Despise:
--------

    Go back to the bride and go along the northern side for the 
river toward the south until you see despise dungeoun.  You will see 
a flying carpet in front the dungeon.  Enter the dungeoun now if you 
want or use the flying carpet to come to other place and come back 
later.  Well, if you want to enter the dungeon then go straight 
north(watchout, a fire field will blow up at the curve). turn left 
and go straight north again until you get teleported then go east 
and then south all the way to the end.  You will get teleport to 
another place walk around to the south until you find a magic locked 
door.  Keep go south and west will lead you to the sphere which is 
the Time Lord will ask you to destroy it later in the game.  Unlock 
the door with the unlock magic spell and enter.  You have to unlock 
three door total.  Enter the place and kill a mage and take the 
stuff from him.  Get the key from the body and use keys on chest.  
There are a bunch of reagents in the chest. wall at the NW corner to 
get to second floor.  Kill everyone up there and take all the things 
from there bodies.  There are several magical items that you'll 
like. Get the keys from bodies and unlock the chests at the SW 
corner and take the stuff.  Use the southern teleport.  Go North to 
get out of the room then west, south, east and then north.  Now you 
will face a magically locked door.  Unlock the door and go in.  Use 
the lever on the wall and search the body.  Take the keys from the 
body.  There're some useful portion and and a ring of protection are 
on the tables.  Get out of the room and go west then north about few 
step and enter a secret entrance on the west.  It's easy to 
recognize because you'll see some chest on the other side.  Use the 
key that you get from the body to unlock the chest and get all the 
stuff from them.  Go back to the room and use the first teleport to 
go back to the original place. Now it's time to get out of the 
dungeoun.  Since you have the flying carpet, you don't need to join 
the fellowship which is I think too much trouble.  Now let use the 
flying carpet and go to Minoc.

Minoc:
------

    The most important thing is talk to the gypsy lady to tell your 
fortune.  Well, you could go around in town to invest the murder and 
ask Julia to join you if you want(I don't like this ugly lady in my 
party).  Now, let go to the Abbey at Yew forest.  

Yew:

him.  Go to the south of the Abbey to Nicodemus' house.  Unlock the 
door and talk to him.  Buy Seance spell and many other that you like.
Go south to the Bee Cave(to the north of Tseramed house).  Enter the 
bees' cave and take honeys.  Use the smoke bomb and get out the 
cave.  Go to the Emps located at 60N, 12E and talk to Trellick.  
Ask him about the Wisps.  He will ask you to talk to his wife and 
then the Emps' leader.  Take the contract from the leader to the 
tree cutter located to the south of Tseramed's house and make him 
sign the contract.  Take it back to the Emps' leader and talk to 
Trellick's wife then talk to Trellick.  He'll make a whistle for 
you.  Now go to the Wisps Castle located in the central of Yew(you 
could see it on the map).  Use the whistle and a wisp will talk to 
you.  Make a deal with him and go to New Magincia to get the 
Notebook from Alagner.

New Magincia:
-------------

    Talk to Alagner(his house is at the north end of the island) 
about his notebook.  He'll ask you to go to Skara Brae to search for 
the answer of life and death.

furryman.  Pay him 2 coins and he will take you accross.  Talk to 
every ghosts in Skara Brae, especially Caine.  Talk to Morda and get

under each tube and an empty vile that you saw on the wall at the 
other end.  Use the burner and now you have a light blue potion.  Go 
to the blacksmith and talk to the weapons maker.  Take the music box 
on the table.  Go to the Liche's castle located at the NW of the 
island.  Use the music box and the weapons maker wife will give you

iron bar from the cementary.  Take it back to him and he'll finish 
the cage.  Take the cage to the Well Of Souls(inside Liche's castle) 
and use it on the well.  The cage should be glowing light blue now.  
Wait until midnight and the Liche will lying on the center bed and 
other ghosts will lying on the beds around him.  Use the cage on the 
Liche and  the potion on him.  Horance will turn to normal and ask 
you to destroy the Well Of Souls.  Talk to him again to find out how 
to destroy the well.  Talk to the Mayor about sacrifice, then talk 
to everyone in town about sacrifice, including the Furryman.  Take 
the weapons maker wife to him.  You'll find out everybody is 
chicken.  Talk to the mayor again and lead him to the well.  He'll 
jump in.  Go back to Caine and ask for the answer.  He'll tell you 
there's no answer.  Now, let go to Jhelom to get Dupre.

    Go to the bar in Jhelom and ask Dupre to join you.

New Magincia:
-------------

    Go back to New Magincia and talk to Alagner.  He'll give you a

and cast help spell in the spell book to get back to Lord British 
Caslte.  Now, go to Despise and take a walk to the Tetrahydron. 
You'll get repell from the red moon gate.  Go to Moonglow this time 
with your flying carpet. Land close to the moon gate so you don't 
need to walk far.  Go to talk to the Time Lord one more time and 
talk about Penumbra.  Go to Penumbra at the north end of Moonglow.  
You need a thread that could make from the cloth maker house by 
using wool on the spindle, a hammer, a ring, some gold coins, and 
some lockpick.  I forgot the order The only thing I remember is 
hammer first then lockpick.  Well, let you guy read the sign and 
find out.  When you finish, the sign will disappear and you'll see a 
key.  Unlock the door and walk in.  Cast "Awaken" spell on Penumbra.

open the door.  When you're inside, you'll see a big Throne.  Enter 
the curtain to the NW and use the lever to open the door.  Enter the 
hall all the way until you see a door to the north.  Enter it and 
now you can't go back out by that way.  Try the levers inside the 
little room to open the door of the last room where has a dead woman 
in it.  Kill anyone, anything on the way you go.  Check the woman 
body and you'll find a key.  Get it.  Move the barrel and use the 
lever to open the secret door.  Go out by that way and continue your 
quest to the east until you find a locked metal door.  Unlock the 
door with the key that you found in the woman body.  Now, Mess 
around with all levers on the wall so you could get to the lever on

the medallion of the stand and the door open.  go north and you'll 
get to a big room.  Enter the curtain at the SW corner.  Now you're 
in a dark maze.  Walk few steps to the west then north... Well, I 
don't remember exactly how to go after this.  The only clue I could 
give you is try to go to the candle.  When you get to the candle,

Before go to castle of fire, come to the mussium and take the two 
lens with you.  Castle of Fire is located at 42S, 125E.  Enter the 
castle and talk to the blind mage.  There're three tests on this island.
Test of Love, Test of Courage, and Test of Truth.  I recomment you 
to go to this place as soon as possible.

The Test Of Love:
-----------------

    Enter the the blue moon gate on  the west.  It'll teleport you 
to the other place.  Take the bucket that next to the well.  Enter 
the house to the south from where you're.  read the book on the 
shelf and take it.  Go to the east and talk to the golem.  It'll 
give you a book.  Read the book and a scroll will fall apart from 
the book.  Put your weapon away and put that scroll on the left hand 
and the bucket on the right hand.  Go north and enter the dungeon.  
Go east and then south.  Take the Pick with you.  Go traight to the 
south and it'll teleport to another place.  Open the secret door to 
the south and get out of that turnals.  You'll see the tree of 
life.  Put the bucket under next to the tree.  Use the pick on the 
tree, the bucket is now fill with blood.  Leave the pick any place 
close to the tree.  You'll come back and use it again.  Go back to 
the Golem, use the blood bucket on the five rocks surround the dead 
golem.  Use the scroll and the alive golem will open his chest to 
take out his heart.  Put his heart into the dead golem and begin to 
cast the spell by using to scroll again.  The dead one will become 
alive and the live one is now die.  Talk to the golem, this one is 
way smarter than the old one.  give him the book that you get from 
the house.  He will tell you to use the pick on the tree to cut out 
a heart for the dead one.  Go to the tree and cut out a heart and 
also fill up the bucket with blood again.  Go back and put the heart 
into the dead one, use the blood bucket on the five rocks and cast 
the spell one more time.  Now both golem are alive.  Talk to the 
smart one and ask him about the talishman.  He'll search for the 
locket and give it to you(do not move or try to see what it's until 
you're teleport back to the three statues).

The Test Of Courage:
--------------------

    Enter the blue moon gate to the east of the castle.  Before 
enter the moongate, talk to the mirror which has the demon in it.  
He'll tell you to get a Imotality Gem.  Use the Dark Core.  Enter 
the moongate now.  Go south, use lock pick on gate go east, kill 
everybody.  Don't bother to kill the liche.  Search many bodies 
around the two red moongates and take the things.  Take a key from 
the mage's body.  Go to the east and kill the golems.  Open the door 
with the key.  Go north and then east and use two levers to open the 
secret door open to the west.  Go west and then north.  Kill the 
dragon, search the dead body close there and take the glass sword 
in the chest and stuff from the body.  Go to the little room where 
has a sphere, put the glass sword on the black square floor.  The 
sphere will disappear and a key will appear.  Take the key to unlock 
a door to the north.  Search around and you will see two rooms, one 
has a great helmet on a pedestal, the other one has magic helmet.  
Switch the two helmets around and walk around all the way to the 
north where the metal door is now open.  Go north and kill the 
dragon.  It'll back to live and give you the gem.  Go back out to 
the castle and talk to the mage.  He'll summon equipments for you to 
make your sword.  Check your inventory and you'll see a black sword. 
Use the bucket on well and fill the tank with water about three
buckets.  Put hammer on your right hand.  Put the black sword on 
fire and pump until your sword is bright red.  Put the sword real 
quick on the anvil and hammer it about two hits and put it back on 
fire again.  Continue to do that until you get the message say that 
you can't get any better.  Put the sword on the tank and use it on 
the tank.  Drop all the stuff on your hand and put the sword on you 
left hand and the gem that you got from the dragon on your right 
hand.  Talk to the mage again about the sword, the demon, and the 
gem.  Go to the mirror and use the gem on the mirror.  The gem will 
capture the demon into it and now you become the master of the 
demon.  Tell the demon to bind into the sword.  Now, you could use 
the sword.  It has the power to slay anyone, include the most 
powerful one like Lord British.  When you want to kill some strong 
creature, you just need to talk the sword, say power and then death 
and click the target on the creature you want to kill.  The demon 
will kill the creature for you(you must stay close to the creature 
in able for the sword to kill your enemy).  Go to the Test Of 
Courage again.  Kill the red dragon one more time.  It'll let you 
go to the north take the blue moongate and it teleport you to the 
talishman of Courage.  Take the locket from the pedestal.  It 
teleport you back to the three statue.

The Test Of Truth:
------------------

    Talk to the statue in the middle, he will ask you to make sure 
you're really want to go for the test.  Say yes.  Go South, then 
west.  When you turn west you'll see a large room.  Walk around on 
the rug only, DO NOT go accross the room or lightening strike will 
hit your party.  When you get to the other side of the room, go west 
and look on the ground, you'll see a hood.  Walk right into the wall 
to the north until you can't go anymore, go east and then north 
again.  Now you're right to the room that has the real talishman.  
Take the talishman and it'll teleport you back to the statue.  The 
statue will tell you that the Psych will come back.  Come to the 
Mage's room and take the long scroll.  Talk to him about the 
Talishman of Infinity.  Talk to your sword and ask for help.  Go to 
the room that has the dark core.  Put the two lens on two sides of 
the dark core.  Put all three talishman that you have on to the dark 
core.  Stand back and watch.  Go back to britain and talk to Lord 
British.
