All of the above can be done in any order as long as you have the prerequisites (item, spell). The remainder of the Walkthrough must be done in this order:

    • Get 2nd note from tavern (earlier).
    • Spy on brigands at archery range from the side (not bottom) entrance.
    • Throw dagger at remaining brigand.
    • Walk around until you receive 2 points (not south).
    • Walk to other archery range entrance (bottom) and get key off of the brigand.
    • Go to area with Antwerp.
    • Search rocks for keyhole (Antwerp will bounce like crazy).
    • Use key.
    • Before entering, say secret word (Hiden Goseke).
    • Walk through maze to bottom right, SAVE.
  1. Minotaur - Fighter: fight minotaur and force gate. Thief: sneak behind Minotaur on the left of the fortress, climb the wall behind the rock. Magic user: use calm on Minotaur and open on the gate.

Go through open door (quickly). Open north door, quickly move left as the door will fall down, then open same door again. (see here for more help.)
