If only Alexander had a red cloth of some sort.oh, wait, he does! The scarf that you picked up from the Red Queen on the Isle of Wonder will do just nicely. But wait a second: the minotaur is half-man, half-bull, and bulls will charge at the color red. If you could get the minotaur to charge into the pit, you'd be all set. Not the best position you've ever been in. The minotaur will growl at you, and maneuver you into a position where the fiery pit is at your back, and the minotaur is at your front. Use the red scarf to get the minotaur to charge you, and plummet into the fiery pit.Īs you enter the room, you'll see the minotaur preparing to sacrifice Lady Celeste. That shouldn't be a hard task for a resourceful adventurer such as yourself. You're almost done with the catacombs: now all you have to do is defeat the minotaur. Use the HAND on the tapestry to trigger the hidden latch you saw before, and the door will open. Whew! But you've finally reached the tapestry after all that walking. Walk three screens west, two screens south, one screen east, one screen south, two screens east, one screen north, one screen east, and two screens north. Of course, it won't be easy to find the tapestry: you'll have to take the long way around to get to it. Now all you have to do is find the tapestry that you saw through the wall. The hole-in-the-wall will run off afterwards, but you've just learned the secret entrance to the minotaur's lair. He'll reach behind a tapestry to trigger a hidden latch that opens a door, and go through that door, which will close after him. You'll see the minotaur through the hole-in-the-wall. USE the hole-in-the-wall on the east wall, and LOOK at the hole-in-the-wall. There's no window in the east wall, but you have your own 'window' that you can use. When you enter the room, the game will note that the roaring of the minotaur is particularly loud here, as if coming from the next room. Walk five screens west, two screens south, and one screen east. Good luck: you're going to need it.Ĭlick on the tapestry to open the entrance to the minotaur's lair. The only way out now is to find and defeat the minotaur.

Alexander will boldly say that he's ready to face the catacombs, and the guards will throw you in and shut the door behind you. So the prophecy is fulfilled, you're out of his way, and he can sleep easily at night. In the end, Lord Azure will decide to kill two birds with one stone: the vizier ordered you to be killed, but he didn't say how, and the catacombs should do the trick nicely. Their daughter, Lady Celeste, is the next sacrificial victim, and they're desperate to save their daughter. The rest of the prophecy states that you'll defeat the minotaur, who has taken residence in the Catacombs and demanded sacrifices. The vizier apparently left them orders to have you killed, but they're torn, as you've just fulfilled a prophecy regarding a hero who would come and climb the Logic Cliffs. The guards will then forcibly escort you to the palace of Lord Azure and Lady Aeriel, king and queen of the Isle of the Sacred Mountain.Ī brief cutscene will play as Alexander meets with Lord Azure and Lady Aeriel. It seems there's a rash of thefts going on between the islands.

They'll also mention that the rulers of the Isle of Wonder stole the sacred golden fleece from their island. When Alexander says that he climbed the Logic Cliffs, they'll scoff and dismiss such a thing as impossible, especially by a mere human. Once you walk north, you'll run into two Winged One guards, who will demand to know what you're doing there. Alexander meets Lord Azure and Lady Aeriel.
