But seriously, that's awesome. Anything else along these lines you haven't been mentioning you'd care to share?

Surprisingly no. Frost Storm is a seventh circle spell, so we only just got it before we went into the Abyss. I haven't been holding out.

Cast the barrier spell before Armageddon, or no?

We can't. One of the reagents for Armageddon is a shard of the Guardian's moongate.






: How queer. Lord British usually spends more time indoors than a level 60 farming Molten Core. Somethimg is amiss!






: I hate you all so much.
: Excellent. I can cast a spell that will temporarily re-align the moons and allow you to travel to the void.
: Oh my god.
: I fear, however, that doing so will speed up the doomsday process set in motion by the Guardian. Therefore, it is important that you come back here as soon as you have cleansed the shrine.
: Once you return, we must move against the Guardian. Are you ready?
: ...You can move the moons?
: Very well. Let us be about it.
: ...With the power of your mind?










: Holy shit!









The afterlife is very... purple.




The first we visit with is Sir Dupre.








Hey everyone, guess what? None of our decisions ever mattered!






I think that's quite enough chatting with our former companion(s).












Oh my god. I can't believe it. I can't believe we lasted through cleansing all 8 Shrines, but we're finally done!











When we go back down we find that Sir Dupre is now alive, completely invalidating his final act of selfless and honorable sacrifice in U7:SI.


: You did it Avatar! When you restored the final shrine, I was given my life back!
: I shall be forever grateful to you my friend. We must return to the physical world by different paths.
: Meet me at Lord British's castle, he has a plan for the final defeat of the Guardian.
: You were dead five minutes ago. How do you know he has a plan? Answer me!
: Farewell, friend!
: Please?
