Dungeon Destard: Complete solution (Part
1)
We land... somewhere.
This large cavern has some sort of magical device in the
middle and some side tunnels leading off to the left and
right.
The first direction we go is to the right. The side
tunnel in here stretches north to south.
To the south is this magical barrier. There are treasure
chests in here.
To the north are some rats.
: Gah! What have you done to deserve this?
: Done? Done?! I've done nothing to deserve this! I simply grew
too old to serve the dragon anymore, so one of those accursed Wyrmguards
chained me up in here.
: He left the key somewhere in here out of my reach.
: In what manner did you serve the dragon?
: The Wyrmguards have enslaved a number of people who mine this
dungeon for gems for the dragon. In return, the selfish beast gives up
young dragons to be trained by the Wyrmguard.
1.) Loot alert!
2.) Fuck, this is a Wyrmguard stronghold.
: Have you ever heard of such a travesty? They left me here to
die because I was too feeble to dig anymore.
: The key is in here?
: Yes, a scoundrel named Dartane dropped the key somewhere in
here and laughed about me never being able to get at it. Oh, if only I had
been brave enough in my youth to defy those brutes!
: I may have died, but at least I would have died with dignity.
Please, see if you can find the key to release me. If I can get out of
here, I may be able to spend my remaining days as a man.
: I'll look for the key.
: Oh, thank you! It really shouldn't take but a
moment.
: Liar! It took 2 full moments!
: Yes, I did. Wait just a moment and I'll set you free.
: Thank you so much for your help! When I reach the surface, I
shall dedicate my life to encourage others to take charge of their lives
and to stand up against the Wyrmguard!
: As for you, be careful: any of the Wyrmguard here will likely
attack you on sight. Farewell!
After that unpleasant ordeal we continue
north.
: What is wrong with this dungeon?
: My name is Adreanna. I hailed from the village of Dawn. And who
might you be?
: I am the Avatar.
: Really? Are you truly serious? I never thought that I should
ever meet the Avatar!
: Well, if you are the Avatar, perhaps you can help release my
spirit and those of my companions from the curse of the dragon.
: The dragon is cursed now?
: Our souls have been bound to this place until the dragon is
slain. We beg you to help us, Avatar.
: What happened to your party?
: I believe that all of us were killed by the dragon. Though I
have found the rest of the spirits in our party, I have not yet found my
dear husband, Darim.
: I hope that he lives, yet I'm afraid that he did not make it.
We came down here many years ago to kill the dragon because it was
attacking our town.
: We decided that it was better to try to kill the dragon than
submit to it as others would have it.
: Who tried to submit to the dragon?
: There was a man named Xarnthal who was convinced that, should
we worship the dragon, it would not only spare us from its attacks, but
would also protect us.
: The town was split; many people joined Xarnthal's cult, but we
preferred to fight. I still believe that our cause was right.
: We may even have succeeded had it not been for Xarnthal's
interference. I still cannot believe how the town tore itself
apart.
: How did Xarnthal interfere with your mission?
: He told the dragon of our plan. We had hoped to catch the
dragon unaware, but that was made impossible. If that were not enough,
Xarnthal's cult helped the dragon to perform a ritual that bound us to
this place.
: Because of this, all of us who came to destroy the dragon may
not rest, but are doomed to haunt this dungeon until the dragon is
killed.
: You are a brave and stalwart soul, this I can tell. Perhaps you
may help us.
: How may I help you?
: If you can slay the dragon, you will relieve us from the
dragon's curse and allow our souls to rest.
: I also ask that you bring me some evidence of what happened to
my husband.
: I hope that he yet lives, but I fear that he does not. I only
want to know what has happened to him.
: Please bring me some proof of my husband's fate. Will you do
these things?
: Yes, poor lady, I'll do whatever I can for you.
: Bless you, dear friend! Be very careful and stout of heart, for
the dragon is strong and devious. And please try to bring back some news
of my dear husband. Farewell.
Now we can go east.
: Who are you?
: I'm the Wyrmguard that's going to take your life. That's all
you need to know, 'hero'!
His name is Yerffoeg and he is one of the
Avatar's former companions.
Do we kill him or do we let him live?
