  • Сообщение: After a good night's sleep you wake to find that Trefor, Ifor and Rhys have been very busy. They have found a few materials left behind by some workmen. There isn't much, but certainly enough to start repairing the mage guild. There should be enough left over to train the three of them as enchanters - they have surely earned it. However, you tell them, you will need more than you could hope to find in Camelot - and obviously you cannot start chopping down the enchanted forest! Trefor says that he knows there is a sawmill just outside the gateway, and there are other resources to be found along the road east from there, leading to a small magi settlement. Furthermore, the last he heard, no Angles, Saxons or Jutes had been seen in that area. Excellent, you declare, let's set off immediately!

  • Сообщение: It seems the Study Centres are arranged in pairs. You can take a course at one, but only one, of each pair. Apparently the first two are offering Eagle Eye in the west, and Earth Magic to the east. No contest, declares Trefor, especially if you are still considering buying that Tome of Earth Magic. Ifor shakes his head and says, I'm not so sure. There are many at the National Wisdom Centre who believe Eagle Eye to be the most useful skill of all. That may be so, counters Rhys, but pray tell me what spells you expect such a revered magician as Myrddin to learn from the savages we are likely to encounter. Why, most of them would have trouble spelling their own name! Hmm, you think to yourself, I once knew an alchemist who had that problem. Nevertheless, Ifor continues defiantly, statistics show that more heroes opt for Eagle Eye than any other skill. Balderdash, exclaims Trefor, statistics can show anything - I have the figures to prove it! As he collapses in laughter at his own joke, you turn away - you have to make your own decision.

  • Сообщение: Here you can study Logistics to the west or Navigation to the east. Now this really is no contest, Trefor says, defying anyone to contradict him. Agreed, says Rhys. Even Lake Avalon is quite small, and we have much ground to cover. Ifor stays silent.

  • 49, 13 подземелье
  • Сообщение: Now you have the choice of Scholar in the west, or Learning in the east. Hmmm, tricky one, says Trefor, scratching his head. Yes, agrees Rhys, musing. It would be useful to learn quickly, but one as wise as Myrddin could teach much to the Daughters of the Round Table. The who? you ask. No, he replies, not The Who. They are not at all musical. What's that got to do with it, mutters Ifor. Ignoring him, Rhys continues with his explanation. There are no more male descendants of the original Knights of the Round Table. So some of the female descendants have joined together to defend the land against the Anglo-Saxon invaders. They are skilled in the arts of war, but know little of magic. Maybe they could benefit from your wisdom.

  • Сообщение: The next choice is between Artillery and Ballistics. I vote for Ballistics, states Trefor firmly. Hold on, says Ifor. If anyone is planning for our small group to start attacking well-defended castles, I'd be obliged if they could let me know. Because if that is the case, I'm off home right now! Well, there are only so many skills one can learn, offers Rhys. My vote is to pass on this and hope for something better later on. My vote, your vote, his vote! What is this, a democracy? Time to show who is leader of this party. Time to make a decision!

  • Сообщение: Your heart sinks as you approach Camelot. It is just a sham! An empty shell! The facade looks as it ever did, but inside all lies in ruins. It seems this venture is going to be even more difficult than you had thought. The disappointment makes you feel suddenly very tired. It has been a long day, and you are hardly used to travelling. You tell your companions that, as soon as you find a bed in the town, you are going to have an early night. They, being blessed with the energy of youth, say they will search the town and see if they can find anything useful. You hope things will look better in the morning.

  • Сообщение: After the ritual you wait inside the hollow to see their leader, an enchanter called Dewi. Some children come into the room and stand staring at you. After a short while one, bolder than the rest, speaks. Are you really {the} Myrddin? Wow, man, you must be like {really} old! I bet you can do some like wicked magic and stuff. You're like a living legend - and in our home, that's like really kewl. You don't understand why, but somehow you just know he would spell it incorrectly. For a moment you wonder just why you are trying to help people who speak like that. Your thoughts are interrupted as Dewi comes into the room, shooing the children out and apologizing if they have been bothering you. Not at all, you lie politely. After a few minutes of small talk he again apologizes, this time for delaying you. He fully realizes the importance of your task and its urgency. You may find some here who are willing to go along with you on your adventure, he continues. I would gladly myself, but I'm afraid I'm getting a bit old and slow now, I might hold you up too much. Yes, you think, you are a bit slow, two of your companions have already joined our party - but, of course, you are too polite to say so. Before you go, he adds, I must give you this sword. It belonged to Arthur and has been guarded by each generation of my family for the time when he would return. You must give me your solemn promise that you will look after it well and give it to none other than Arthur himself. This is very important. You agree, take your leave and turn to go, but he calls you back. Almost forgot, there's something else you might find useful. There's a pair of gloves, belonged to my grandfather. Magical gloves they are, make you travel further. Never did understand how that works, but that's what they do. I don't get out much these days so have no use for them. Don't know quite where they are at the moment - the children have probably been playing with them and left them lying around outside somewhere. If you can find them, you're welcome to take them. You thank him profusely, but refrain from mentioning that you had already spotted them - not that you were going to take them without permission!

  • Сообщение: As you approach, a guard peers at you first through his spectacles, then over them. He removes them, breathes on the lenses and polishes them on his tunic. Putting them back on, he peers at you again. He takes them off again, rubs his eyes, replaces them and looks at you once more. Finally he speaks. Well bless my soul, if it isn't old Myrddin. What on earth are you doing in these parts, after all this time? Don't tell me you're even thinking of trying to pick up Excalibur. Surely you, more than anyone, must know that none but King Arthur himself can pull the sword from the stone. Find him and you'll be welcome to pass, but otherwise it's no way, Josй. It's what?! you think. Of course you knew only Arthur could wield the sword, you tell yourself somewhat irritably, but no way Josй? What kind of talk is that? It seems some changes have not been for the better while you have been away.

  • Сообщение: As you ride up you realize it is indeed none other than Pointy Hat himself - and his bodyguard! He looks down at you with a sneer and says I never thought I'd see the day when I bumped into you again, old man. What on earth is a doddery old fool like you doing riding through these mountains? It seems age has not improved his diplomacy skills. I've managed to escape from the clutches of one silly old coot, he continues, I'm not about to let myself by stuck on the balding, dandruff-ridden head of another. Sheesh! He's 1,319 years old - and you must be {much} older than that! Why, you cheeky young... you start. Now, now, the hat says, raising an eyebrow and glancing at the bodyguards to each side of him. Now I've got me some real protection. No more bashful budgies, no pathetic parakeets, these birds are the real business. You realize he doesn't need any diplomacy skills - but you do! You bow your head meekly and let him continue. I see you have no bovines with you, so I'm not going to bother setting my bodyguard on you, as long as you leave now. Rhodri mentions quietly that you could take the other road. Tell you what, Pointy adds, you bring me some bovines to slaughter and I might, just might, consider letting you pass! He turns, laughing, to his bodyguard, a sign, you assume, that the audience is over. So, do you attack his bodyguard, or would you rather stay alive?

I trust you will be able to free them without my help. Unfortunately, this is where I must leave you. I have other important business to attend to. You think of asking what his business is. Perhaps you could persuade him that it is not so urgent and he might stay with you for a while yet.

You cannot understand his concern. What, {the} Pointy Hat? you ask. Why, I knew the little young rascal when he was just a skull cap. He's changed a bit since your day, explains Rhodri. He's not someone you want to get into a fight with. His master usually keeps him under control, but if he has got free we had best proceed with caution.

  • Сообщение: Angharad explains that she and Cynfelyn, who was visiting her, were trapped by some mysterious force. That prevented them sending an escort to meet you. However, they are very glad that you have been able to reach them, but are disturbed to hear that you have had no word from the others. I fear they have also been ensnared. We must ride to rescue them with all speed, she says, seeming to take it for granted that she should be giving the orders. You do not feel familiar enough with the situation to question her authority. Cynfelyn must ride south-east to her own castle, which Sioned was guarding. I will go south to see if Rhiannon is all right. Aren't you worried about leaving this castle unguarded? you ask. That is a good point, she responds. I shall leave my archers here and just take the marksmen - I shall be able to travel more quickly that way. You explain the problem with the Avalon landing site, but she replies that she knows of nothing which could help. She does however, suggest that you go to see Megan, who is apparently the intellectual of the group. Just follow the road north, she explains, then turn right by the ford. There was a mercenary camp nearby the last time I was there. A little to the east you will find Castell o Dan, where Megan lives. You readily agree to travel to Castell o Dan, the Castle of Fire. You were very proud of that, the ever-burning forest you created to protect the castle - it would be good to see how well it has survived the years. Speed is of the essence, Angharad emphasizes. The roads are little better than tracks, where they still exist, and we cannot afford to waste time straying far to the side of the roads. That can wait for the return journey. And we must watch out for enemy patrols. Remember, let's be careful out there! As you are about to go your separate ways, you remember to show Angharad the piece of statue you took from the raider near Camelot. She immediately recognizes it as part of an ancient statue of King Arthur, which disappeared some time ago. The raiders must have broken it up to remove it, she explains. If we could find all the pieces and put them together again, it would greatly boost the morale of the people, and increase our support.

There probably are, you think to yourself, but try to reassure him, As long as they are just watching, there's no harm. You wish you could sound convincing, but this is perfect country for an ambush. Don't worry about it, says Rhodri confidently, they're just curious. After all, this is their land we are passing through, and they probably don't see many travellers around here. These days it's only natural that they should be wary of strangers. If we don't provoke them, I'm sure they will not attack us. No doubt he is right, you think, but you can't help feeling a tinge of guilt over all those pigeon pies you've been eating recently.

  • Сообщение: So this is Avalon? You find yourself, to say the least, a tad underwhelmed. You had expected something more..., something more..., more..., well, just something more. Surely fabled Avalon cannot be just an untidy collection of fairly rough thatched buildings? Well, there is also a tavern, of course, but there is not the slightest doubt in your mind that it will be closed, despite the smoke rising from the chimney. Can King Arthur really be here?
• Амулет некроманта
  • 43, 6 подземелье
  • Сообщение: You stumble across more booty dropped by the fleeing raiders - yet another necromancy artifact! I don't like it, mutters Ifor. We should destroy all such evil artifacts - they can never be used for good. If it can help us, then use it, I say, is Trefor's view. Rhys ponders for a moment, then offers his opinion. I would never condone the use of such items in normal circumstances, but we are in a difficult situation. We should keep them in case we find a use for them. I still say good can never come from evil, maintains Ifor. Your heart agrees with him, but your head tells you that you need to accept whatever you find for the moment. To be honest, your thoughts focus more on the magical bag of gold. That will bring the Tome of Earth Magic nearer and nearer - if you can hold on to it!

  • Сообщение: Drawing closer you can see it is not Rhodri, although there are some similarities in the face - but then, aren't there for all dragons? However, while not quite welcoming you with open wings (which could be a bit dangerous) he does seem pleased to see you. It is an honour to meet the legendary Myrddin, he greets you. My cousin Rhodri sent word that you might be passing through here and asked me to look out for you and to offer you any help I can. You explain that you are looking for a seer, somewhere in the Rocklands, you know not where. Ah, he replies, I do know the one you want. He lives at the end of a long, narrow valley in the north. I have to travel that way myself, to visit another seer who lives nearby. I would be pleased if we could make the journey, or at least most of it, together. There are not many creatures in these parts nowadays, but those you do meet will invariably be very unfriendly. I hope I can help you persuade them to step aside. The pleasure would be ours, you respond, err..., I'm afraid you have the advantage of me... He looks puzzled for a while, then suddenly realizes what you mean. Oh please, do forgive me, most impolite of me. I'm afraid meeting such a famous legend as yourself made me forget my manners completely. My name is Hywel.

Fortunately you will not meet any of them in this part of the world.

  • Сообщение: We understand that your mission is both important and urgent, and we really don't wish to hold you up, but we desperately need your help. There's a bunch of one-eyed English hooligans living nearby. They spend most of their day playing some stupid game, just kicking a rock around. When they get tired of that, which is quite often because it does look very boring, they've taken to taunting us, though we've never done anything to provoke them. They jump up and down chanting what we can only take to be some sort of shamanistic ritual, completely incomprehensible, but it sounds like You'n I TID. That wouldn't be so bad, but lately they've started hurling rocks at us. Now that can hurt - they are pretty big fellows, and they throw large rocks. We're really sorry to trouble you, but we cannot stand it much longer, and there's no-one else we can turn to. Please drive them away, and then you can pass with our blessing. Sadly, waiting for them to run out of ammunition is hardly a practical option here. You do feel slightly irritated at being held up, but you have to admit these people do have a point. The hooligans are near enough for you to see, so it shouldn't take long to deal with them. They certainly are big, ugly brutes, and you feel you would be doing the world a favour by getting rid of them.

  • Сообщение: You are very relieved to find Rhodri once again. Both of you have many tales to tell each other over long winter evenings - but this is not the time for that. I am very glad to see you have made it this far, he says. If you have found what you were looking for then we must make all possible haste. There is a lith nearby which will cut short our journey by several days. I have received reports that the enemy are building large forces which the Daughters of the Round Table cannot hope to withstand for long. You must find Arthur soon. There have been a few rumours, adds Trefor, of a new enemy hero called, I think, the Iron Maiden. That can't be right, snorts Ifor, Iron Maiden was a group of bards, they played at the eisteddfodau a few years ago. Well, the name was Iron Something, responds Trefor, somewhat tetchily. Iron Horse, no, could it have been Iron Butterfly? As Ifor laughs derisively, Rhys tries to calm things down. I think you are referring to the Iron Lady. She is said to be a most fearsome warrior, who leaves a trail of destruction wherever she goes. If she is about to arrive here then we must indeed hurry. Then let's stop arguing and get going, says Rhodri. By the way, he adds, turning to you, on my travels I met with a merchant who was boasting about how he had tricked you out of a pair of boots. I thought I should teach him the fundamental principles of consumer rights, and persuaded him to let me return the boots to you.

I beg you to take my castle and put an end to the torment of my followers. It was my fault that they were corrupted by the Grail, they do not deserve to suffer any longer. Will you grant me this last favour, old friend? You assure him that you will. Please take the Grail, he continues, his voice now starting to fail, I know you will use it for good. But beware, spending too much time with it will corrupt any human, no matter how pure they appear to be. You have to bend even closer to him as his voice fades. I had to bury it, but it was too late, I had already succumbed to its power. You will be careful how you use it, won't you? Promise me. His voice is now barely audible, but it is clear he will not continue until you have agreed. Yes, yes, of course, but where is it? you reply hastily, your voice betraying your impatience and anxiety. Why, I thought you would have known, he croaks. Your powers must be fading, old man. You feel his body tense and it is almost as if he is trying to laugh. It's buried by the well, just to the s... His body falls limp, and you know he can tell you no more. So close and yet... Just to the s...? To the south? To the side? What did he mean? And which well? You order your companions to attack the castle while you try to puzzle it out. You certainly cannot afford to waste time searching for the Grail. You must find it quickly, and then look for Rhodri and the way out.

Peredur sees you coming, but he doesn't wait in his castle. He jumps onto his horse and rides furiously to meet you. It is clear he is not coming to chat.

  • Сообщение: A manic Necromancer blocks your path. Normally you would have no dealings at all with such a degenerate creature - but these are not normal times. Aha! he exclaims on seeing you approach. You don't look like the kind of fools who normally venture into the forest. Seems to me you are wise men, and resourceful as well I hope. You may be able to help me... And just what, you interrupt, makes you think we would want to help you? The fact that I think you want to pass, he replies. Seeing that you have no defiant response to that, he continues. I already have the Skull Helmet, now all I need is the Blackshard of the Dead Knight. Oh, and what was it, the Rib Cage. If you bring me those then I could create a very powerful artifact and become ruler of the whole world. That would really impress the Necromancy & Witchcraft Cheerleaders. Some of them are real babes! You should see that Mistress Sandro, what a body! Well, not much body to be truthful, but bone structure to die for! They wouldn't have anything to do with me, they're all besotted with the one called the Lich of Love, blinded by his cheesy Gallic charms. They said I was a fool, they said I was mad - but I'll show them all! With that he goes back into his tower, but at the doorway he turns, scratching his chin. Flakes of skin cascade like snow, then he looks up and adds, Ah yes, I knew there was something else. I'll also need the Shield of the Yawning Dead. Not much to ask, is it? Knew you'd understand. Right, don't bother me again until you've found those items. With that he shuts the door and you hear several bolts being slid shut. This is too much, fumes Ifor. Surely, he asks, looking round the other faces, you simply cannot be contemplating helping such a low-life, or unlife? What choice do we have? asks Rhys with a shrug. I don't understand why we can't just fry the wretch, complains an exasperated Trefor. Surely a magician of your power, Myrddin, could easily zap him and his tower. No-one would miss him, would they? It seems his brain is as decayed as his body. It's just not allowed, you explain wearily. Rules are rules, and you simply cannot zap these towers. Doing so would be Not Weally Cwicket. If we did give him these items, asks Ifor, and he did assemble this powerful artifact, what's to stop him then zapping us? There is silence, as no-one has an answer to this. Besides which, Ifor finally adds, where on earth would we start looking for them? There just has to be another way. Perhaps that's it, says Rhys with more hope than conviction. Maybe there is another way through the forest. It would do no harm to look. If we find the artifacts, then we have to make a decision on what to do with them. If we find a way round this tower, that solves the problem. No-one has an alternative suggestion, so you set off.

What is hard to understand is why such a pious knight as Peredur would tolerate such creatures in his fiefdom. It is surely not befitting the guardian of the Holy Grail, if, indeed, he does still possess it. This is not the Castle of the Seven Wells you used to know. That was a very welcoming place, but now even the very landscape seems to have turned to evil. Worries fill your mind, but first you have to eliminate these foul creatures.

Fortune seems to be smiling on you, for their leader's attention appears to be fixed on something in the opposite direction.

One as famous as you should expect to be recognized, even by those who have only heard about you in legends. Allow me to introduce myself. I am called Rhodri. Naturally I cannot become one of your followers, for we dragons can accept the leadership of none other than Arthur, son of Uther Pendragon. Furthermore, I wish to put on record that I have no desire for greater glory, nor am I a group. However I should be glad to accompany you on your journey for a while. I presume you are intending to head for Lake Avalon as soon as you have finished your business in this settlement? He doesn't pause for you to reply. Well, I have some business which takes me very near to there, so I'll happily go along with you to the shores of the lake - as long as you do not intend any great delay before setting off. You readily accept his offer. A dragon is always a desirable travelling companion, and you certainly do wish to set off as soon as you can.

  • Сообщение: Doubts begin to creep into your mind. A short while ago it had seemed like a jolly little adventure, exactly the kind of diversion you were looking for. Gradually you are coming to realize just what a difficult task you may have taken on. Where on earth (or elsewhere!) would Arthur be? The last you heard, he was being taken, wounded, to the Isle of Avalon. Now, you feel sure that was in the middle of a lake, and you have a vague idea that it was somewhere in the south west, but you're not at all certain how to get there. Your companions also appear to be disheartened and you find out that they are worried by the appearance of those white dragons, who had not been there before. On the contrary, you try to reassure them, that is an excellent omen. It dates back to the time when I was very young. Brenin Gwrtheyrn ordered a castle to be built in Dinas Emrys, but every night the foundations were swallowed up and the whole building disappeared. All the wisest men in the land were consulted, but they could find no solution. Finally they suggested that the only way to break the spell was to find a child born without a father and to sprinkle his blood on the ground where the castle was to be built. I was chosen and brought before the king. Even though I was only seven at the time, I was able to explain to him that shedding my blood would not help. I could tell that there was a pool under the foundations, and two dragons who lived in this pool awoke each night and fought each other, causing the new walls to collapse. The king ordered his workmen to dig until they found this pool, which they did. As I had foretold, there were two dragons, one red and one white. As they fought the white dragon appeared to have the upper hand, but eventually I knew the red dragon would prevail. I explained that the red dragon represented the British people, and the white the Anglo-Saxons. After a long and fierce struggle the Britons would triumph over the invaders. So, you see, the appearance of these white dragons is a welcome sign. It is an omen that King Arthur will soon return with his red dragons to defeat them. The legend gives them new heart - and it also distracts them from the fact that you are not heading directly towards Camelot, but are trying to turn them to the magic shrine to the west. You haven't cast a spell for centuries and your spellbook is, quite frankly, a disgrace. Most of the pages have fallen out, and those that remain have worn thin and been ripped, while the ink has faded. Yet these people revere you as the greatest magician ever. You're not worried about your image for your own sake, of course, but you simply cannot destroy their faith by betraying the fact that you can hardly cast any spells at all. Once inside Camelot, you will easily find a chance to slip into the mage guild and relearn spells. In the meantime, however, it would be wise to visit both shrines just in case you are called upon to demonstrate your prowess before you reach the castle. You feel certain there was a very useful spell to be learnt in the shrine to the west, but you cannot quite remember what it was.

The road itself is in much better condition and so we should be able to make good speed. I am also confident we won't meet any of the invaders in the mountains.

  • 27, 83 подземелье
  • Сообщение: From here you can see the Lake of Avalon - what you cannot see is any sign of a boat, nor anywhere to build one. This is not going to be as easy as you may have hoped. You ask where there might be any other landing sites, but Ifor is certain this is the only one, and Rhodri confirms this. Could you not use a spell, asks Trefor, to summon a boat? Even if I could remember the spell, you reply gloomily, old as my eyes are, they are good enough to tell me, even from here, that that is an anti-magic garrison. It would not be possible to cast any spell from the water's edge. Realizing that you have slipped up by admitting you have forgotten the spell, you start to bluster, hoping they won't have noticed. Whose foolish idea was it, anyway, to put that thing there? What is the point of it? That would be the work of the Network of Water Conjurors, answers Rhys. It is intended to prevent any unworthies using magic to reach Avalon. What utter nonsense, you fume. Which of us could be considered unworthy? Remember, says Ifor, it's not just wizards who know how to use magic. True, true, you say grudgingly, but it does leave us with a major problem. Without boats or magic, how on earth are we to reach the Isle of Avalon? Silence reigns for a few minutes as everyone frowns and tries to look as if they are thinking of a solution. Finally, Trefor speaks. We could try looking for the Holy Grail, he suggests, glancing quickly from face to face, searching for some sign of approval. And just how, asks Ifor grimly, do you imagine that would help? Haven't a clue, admits Trefor. But does anyone have a better idea, he adds defensively. And just where would you start looking, Ifor enquires with just a slight hint of cynicism in his voice. Haven't a clue about that either, Trefor concedes, now somewhat deflated as he realizes his suggestion isn't as popular as he had hoped. The last I heard, Rhys interjects, it was still being guarded by Peredur, the one the English call Sir Perceval. Apparently its properties miraculously kept him alive. But that was a very long time ago. I believe no-one has seen him for many years. And I haven't a clue where to start looking, he adds before Ifor can pose the question. There seems to be little point in setting out on a search for the Grail if you have no idea where to start, and no idea whether it would be of any use in solving your problem. Furthermore, the thought of looking for the Grail does not appeal to you at all. You always felt that the day the Knights of the Round Table started their quest for the Grail was the day the fellowship started to fall apart. The only comfort you can find is that you can see an avalanche has blocked the other road. That, and the securing of a supply of crystal, at least means that the detour caused by Pointy Hat proved to be a good thing. You must remember to thank him the next time you meet. You're sure he would appreciate that. Rhodri finally speaks. Well, he says, standing here staring at the problem isn't going to solve it. My business takes me to Castell Goch. I should be happy if you would accompany me there, it's only about a day's journey due east from here. I'm slightly uneasy at the lack of news from the Daughters of the Round Table, and it may be that your help could be needed. It's also possible they could give you a suggestion as to how you could continue your quest. You can see no sensible alternative, so you agree to go with him. You have enjoyed his company, so it is no hardship to prolong it.

You should hurry there without further delay, no doubt they too have been imprisoned. I feel sure Megan will be able to advise you on what to do next. You are disappointed to learn that you have to make yet another journey, but there is no alternative. I shall head north, Rhonwen continues, and open up the path to the magi settlement.

You're not sure, but you suspect a slight note of sarcasm in his voice. Unfortunately, he continues, the tavern has been closed on orders of the No Wassailing Campaign... What? you bellow. Do they realize how many centuries it is since I last enjoyed a good pint of mead? Well even if they were open, you couldn't have a pint. The Novel Weights Commission has decreed all drinks must now be sold in litres... Pints, litres, barrels, who cares? you interrupt. You can see lights flickering inside the tavern, and a thin wisp of smoke is rising from the chimney, but there's no point in arguing. If they says it's closed, then it's closed. You were so much looking forward to a good drink of mead. What was the name of that brand you used to like in the good old days? Andy, Anthea, Andrea - yes, that's it!

Even if we did happen upon any, you respond, I'm not sure we could trust him to let us through. Besides that, bovines have been kind to me in the past. I don't see why we should sacrifice any innocent creatures to satisfy the whims of a homicidal maniac. I think 'vaccicidal' is the word you are looking for, offers Ifor casually.

I must congratulate you on a very ingenious and original scheme. I thank you for the compliment, he responds, but cannot claim that it is original. I was inspired by a certain Caster of Shadows, although he has gone under many other names, who used the device in a Spectral World he created during the Second Era. It has served well to keep the invaders away from me. Until recently, that is, when they found these strange creatures able to fly over the water to annoy me. I am very grateful that you have driven them away. Is there any way I can show my gratitude? But first sit down and rest. Can I get you anything to drink? A sweet pint of mead would slip down a treat, you reply optimistically, but your hopes are immediately dashed as he shakes his head. You are beginning to wonder if Andrea Mead is to be found anywhere in this land. Sadly, he explains, mead has been largely replaced by beer, a lukewarm drink introduced by the invaders. For myself, I cannot understand why it has become so popular - far too bitter for my taste. I can offer you a range of herbal teas, which are most beneficial to the health... Seeing you hesitate, he adds, ...or, I do have a couple of barrels of sweet cider...

  • Сообщение: Examining the artifacts you have captured, you are surprised that these ignorant savages seem to have so many magical items. Even more unusual is what seems to be part of an ancient statue. Ifor doubts the wisdom of carrying such a heavy item along. It'll just slow us down, and I can't see any use for it, is his view. Trefor is more positive, Booty's booty, I say. Let's take everything we find. As long as I don't have to carry it, is Ifor's grudging response. I have no idea what it is, admits Rhys, but if these raiders were taking the trouble to carry it with them, it must have some significance. We should show it to the Daughters of the Round Table when we meet their escort - perhaps they know something about it. Moving on, your attention is caught by a strange structure to your left. As you stare at it, Ifor draws alongside you and enthusiastically starts to explain, This is one of the very latest lith designs from the Network of Wonderful Connections. Many admire the sleek lines of the Mark IIIb/ii, but some feel its modern look to be out of place... It is through such liths, Rhys interrupts him, that the invaders attack us. Although they can emerge from the structures, we have found no way of entering them. It is almost as if the raiders are coming from the bowels of the earth... ...Or the depths of Hell itself, interjects Ifor. It does, indeed, seem that way, Rhys concedes. It is always wise to be wary when near such structures. You can never tell when an enemy force might emerge.

  • Сообщение: You suddenly spot the seer's home - indeed, it would be hard to miss it. One very large, solitary tree in the midst of all this barren land, it surely cannot be natural. You ask Hywel about these seers. You cannot remember meeting any in the old days. Oh, he replies, they did not appear until the beginning of the Third Era. Since then, however, they have become very common and seem to appear all over the place. Many people have come to rely on them for guidance. They can indeed be very useful, you have to admit. Although their choice of dwellings does seem rather strange - but then, there is much in this new Third Era that is strange to me. Well, you haven't much time to dwell on it, he warns. It is said that the dawn of the Fourth Era draws nigh. There is already much speculation as to what changes the Noble Whimsical Creators are planning. I for one, says Trefor as the brothers have joined the conversation, am looking forward to the new era. I'm sure it will be Not a Web of Confusion. Who knows, asks Ifor, obviously not expecting an answer. It could turn out to be a Nest of Waspish Conundrums, but there is no sense in us spending time thinking about it. It is all in the lap of the gods. Well, I have heard, adds Rhys, that in their Wake, the Gods have left something truly wondrous. It not the Fourth Era itself, but it is said that a Work of Genius has given mere mortals the power to make sweeping changes to things as we know them in the Third Era.. It seems we do live in exciting times, agrees Hywel, but what should concern us is the present reality. I know I have some urgent business to attend to, and I believe you do too. I suggest we press on.

You never encountered such beings in the olden days, and cannot help wondering where they came from. I do not know their origins, says Hywel, but almost every Warlock you encounter will have such troops in his (or her) army. I cannot get used to the idea of a female Warlock, you reply, such a thing was quite unthinkable in the good old days. That's called progress, Ifor interjects, with obvious disapproval. Equality of opportunity is the buzz phrase now. Maybe so, you respond, but I don't see why it should be applied to Warlocks. You're not quite certain what a buzz phrase might be, but this is not the time to start him off. The creatures are about to attack!

Surely they have not simply vanished? Oh, no, he responds, but there was a great upheaval at the start of the Third Era. As I understand it, the gargoyles were out of contract, and their agents negotiated a move to the Wizards. You would have been able to recruit some yourself at Camelot had you repaired their parapet while you were there. There was more important work to be done in that short time, says Trefor, somewhat defensively. Indeed, you agree, besides, I'm not that comfortable with the idea of having them on my side. In the heat of battle, I might forget myself and destroy them with a spell. There is much in this Third Era that is still strange and new to me.

Often there is only one narrow path you can follow - and of course it is there that you will find enemy troops waiting to attack you. Much of the surface here is treacherous, Hywel explains. One false step could easily result in a broken limb, or worse. You have to be very careful where you tread. Then we are indeed fortunate, you say with a smile and a slight bow towards him, to have you to guide us. It is my pleasure, he responds, bowing in return. Of course, normally I could just fly over the obstacles, but I am afraid I could not carry you and your companions. At least not yet, but who knows what the future holds. There is talk that the Fourth Era will start soon, and there is much speculation as to what changes that might bring. Naturally Wholesale Changes are expected.

In some ways, muses Hywel, their war-like nature is to our advantage. If they were to ally, surely they would soon overrun us. The more we can lead them to fight each other rather than us, the longer we may be able to hold out against them.

Of course, he is too young to have experienced the golden period of the Second Era, but, as dragons live much longer than humans, he is far fewer generations removed from that time than are your human companions. Tell me, he inquires, is it really true that there were no red dragons in the First Era? It is indeed true, you answer. In those days the only dragons to be seen were purple. Mind you, there were no Wizards, nor any Necromancers, around then either. It was only with the beginning of the Second Era that red dragons appeared, along with some green and black variants. Yes, I have heard of them, he responds. I've even heard tales that black dragons were supposed to be superior. Surely such a thing cannot be true? Sadly, it was, you tell him, although I always thought that was a mistake by the Nutty Warped Colourists. In this part of the world, however, red dragons were always seen to be the most noble of all creatures, you hastily reassure him. There were even, you continue, some misguided fools who argued that titans were better than dragons. So, Heretics did exist in those days, he observes. I had thought they were a new introduction at the start of the Third Era. Oh, there have always been heretics around, you reply, but in those days, no-one regarded them as heroes. Just like the Alchemists, you add.

You explain the situation, then wait while she ponders for a few minutes. I'm not sure, she finally says. Seeing the disappointment on your face, she continues, but I think there is a seer who might be able to help you. All I know is that he lives somewhere in the Rocklands, but I'm afraid I have no idea where. The Rocklands? you ask. I have never heard of such a place. It is the eastern part of the land, the entrance can be found just to the north of Porth Newydd, she explains. Why, unless my memory is even worse than I thought, that area was very fertile, teeming with game to hunt, and with many farms. Why is it now called the Rocklands, you wonder. Ah, she responds, I do remember my grandmother saying it was as you described. However the Anglo-Saxons have so ravaged the land that you will find it much changed. Before you go there, I would advise you to return to Camelot and find a few more travelling companions. Not many creatures live in that area now, but those you do meet are likely to be hostile. I'm sure that, with your expert training, my monks would make excellent enchanters, but I fear I shall need all the forces I can muster. It is unlikely that there are any strong enemy forces in the Rocklands, so those you recruit from Camelot should be enough to see you safely through. As you part, she wishes you luck on your quest and adds, You must hurry. I can promise that all the Daughters of the Round Table will do our best to repel the invaders for as long as possible. However, even were you to stay and help us, we could never hope to defeat them. Our only hope for victory lies in you finding King Arthur before they become too numerous for us. You must not allow yourself to be distracted from your mission.

I really couldn't expect you to... Nonsense, he insists, we must all contribute what we can to the cause. If you don't succeed in finding Arthur, then surely the Anglo-Saxons will take all we have anyway. There's no arguing with him. Despite his youth, in dragon terms, he does have an air of natural authority about him, alongside his open-heartedness and generosity. You will be very sad to see him go when the time comes for him to leave your party. Besides, he adds with a wink, I think you need it for something you want very badly. It seems he's also quite perceptive.

The gardens are immaculate and in full bloom. The red swans are still swimming in their ponds - well, presumably, not the original swans, but their descendants. The soaring towers of the castle look as impressive as ever. Best of all, the enchanted forest you created to keep unwelcome visitors away still sparkles like it always did. You realize that is what has been missing from your life - there just wasn't any sparkle up there. You feel full of life and look forward to new adventures. Trefor suggests you go to the spot where Excalibur stands in the stone. Perhaps you could pull it out and take it to Camelot, which would save a lot of trouble. Huh! says Ifor. Do you really think a feeble old man like him could pull the sword from the rock? Privately you agree with him, although you would have hoped to express it somewhat more politely. Rhys, however, says it's worth a try. After all, you're not going to reach the castle by nightfall anyway.

As the invaders have reached this area, counsels Rhys, we should hurry east to the magi settlement. They may need our help. Yes, Trefor agrees, but we should also claim the mines on the way.

F-f-f-forty thousand! you splutter. Oh, come now, the merchant replies, it's a real bargain. This is a genuine first edition, certified by the Northern Wizards' Council. You look dubious, but he continues, I can tell you are a gentleman of distinction, a real connoisseur, one who will treasure such a precious item. So, to give it a good home, I'll let you have it for just 30,000. You know that it's a swindle, and you can sense that your companions are looking at you uneasily. They cannot understand why you are wasting time with this charlatan when, surely, you must know all the spells, and more, already. You cannot afford to shatter their faith in you by admitting that you've forgotten most of them, and desperately need this book - but, equally, you simply cannot afford 30,000 centipedes. Well, as a collector, you reply, I might be interested if it is a genuine first edition... Oh, certainly, he enthuses, it was probably written by Myrddin himself. Just look at the quality of the leather-look bindings... As he sees you sadly shaking your head he adds, tell you what, just for you, make it 25,000, cash of course. That's my final offer. As you continue slowly shaking your head, he hesitates, then says All right, you drive a hard bargain, it's yours for just 20,000, and that really is as low as I can go. You realize that he does mean it this time, but you simply do not have the gold. You tell him you'll have to think about it and turn away, wondering whether you can find that much money before you return this way. As you leave, Trefor asks why you didn't just zap the scoundrel and take the book. Being on the side of good, you explain, I just can't do such things. It's just not playing the game. Why, even the Necromancers' & Warlocks' Code wouldn't tolerate such ungentlemanly behaviour.

You join your heart as you sit wearily on the ground, deflated, defeated. For a long while the only sound is of the water lapping at the shore. Trefor suddenly jumps to his feet and says, I know I've suggested it before, but we could look for the Grail. Seeing the lack of enthusiasm in everyone's eyes, he adds, It has to be better than doing nothing, surely? Reluctantly you have to agree, but you need to hear everything they know about it. As far as Rhys is aware, it was last in the possession of Peredur, but nothing has been heard of him for a very long time. Ifor thinks he lived in a castle called Holywell, but has no idea where that might be. You remember there was a Castle of the Seven Wells, somewhere between Castell o Dan and what is now called the Rocklands - but none of those wells had anything holy about them. Trefor's face suddenly lights up. I recall hearing of a seer, he says, can't remember his name, who was interested in the story of the Holy Grail. He just might be able to help us. And where would we find this seer? you ask, somehow knowing that it is not going to be just around the corner. These people always live at the far ends of the earth. I'm not sure, Trefor responds, but I think his home is hidden somewhere in the northern mountains, to the west of Caermynydd. That figures, you think. However, it has to be better than doing nothing, so you may as well go and see what the seer has to say. I'm not at all certain, Trefor continues, as he rumages around in his robes, but it could be that he was the one referred to by the seer in the Rocklands. As we were leaving, he gave me this, producing a sash from his pocket with a flourish. He told me that if we ever needed advice from a good friend of his, we should show him this and he would be willing to help.

Over the years I have accumulated much wealth, but I would gladly trade it for some source of refreshment. Any form of well would be almost priceless. Unfortunately the only well we have is the Wizard's Well, you say. Oh, he enthuses, I have no idea what that is, but it sounds perfect. Would you be willing to trade? I'll pay very handsomely for it.

  • Сообщение: Angharad tells Rhiannon about the enemy patrol she has seen near the magic garden. With the force you have already, she says, you should be able to liberate the saw-mill and ore pit. If you recruit more crusaders at the start of next week, that should be enough for you to defeat him. Meanwhile I'll try to sneak past him again to return home.

  • Сообщение: As you approach, the eldest of the three (somehow you sense they are brothers) is pushed forward by the others. He has obviously been volunteered as their spokesman. He bows awkwardly and says, Excuse us sir, are you the legendary Myrddin? You feel flattered (a good start) but reply, Well, my name is Myrddin, whether I am legendary or not is for others to say, in what you hope is a dignified tone. A look of relief appears on his face as he says, Oh, indeed you are legendary, the greatest in all legend. Now that {is} nice to hear, you think. Allow me to introduce myself, he continues. I am called Trefor, and my brothers here, (yes, you think, I've still got it!) are Ifor and Rhys. Very pleased to meet you, you respond, but why, not to mention how, have you come to see me? We come on behalf of the British people to ask for your aid. The country is being overrun by the Angles, Saxons and Jutes. To repel these invaders we are in desperate need of a mighty hero to lead us... Now, that really is a compliment, you think to yourself, although you're not entirely convinced you quite fit the bill. ...and it has been decided that you would be the one most likely to find King Arthur for us. Delete one compliment, as your ego deflates. The people really believe in the legend of Arthur as the Once and Future King, the one who will return when his country is in danger. Well, it certainly is in danger now. Britons everywhere are being oppressed by the English invaders, and their only hope lies in the return of Arthur. There was great expectation that his arrival was imminent, what with the millennium and all, but there has been no sign so far and many are becoming despondent. Will you come with us and help restore Arthur and Excalibur to Camelot? Well, you think, it's not as if you have a long list of prior engagements. A little adventure might be an amusing diversion, and it would be interesting to see Camelot once more, not to mention Arthur himself - if you can ever find him. You nod your agreement sagely (at least you hope that's the way it looks) and they start to move towards the strange new structure. Is this some new sort of lith? you enquire. Ifor suddenly perks up and responds, Well, it's not exactly new, quite old now in fact, but of course it must be very different from the liths they had in your time. I understand they were all white in those days. This type of lith, the Mark IIIa, comes in several different colours, as well as designs, and you have a choice of one-way or two-way. The newest design, the Mark IIIb series, is now becoming more popular... You have the feeling this could prove to be a very long trip.
