Dungeon Wrong: Complete solution (Part 3)




With Raven's key we can unlock the door at the end of the next hallway.




The button on the left opens a door back to the start of the dungeon. The button on the right is the angry-button and makes a loud noise that makes the guards mad at us.




At the end of the next hallway is another pit in the floor. Pushing a loose block on the wall opens the grate.




That time was clearly self-defense.




The door we want is on the left at the end of the passage. I had to flick the switch a couple of times to get it open, I don't know if it's supposed to be like that.

There's a good question. What powers this place? I mean they have power doors controlled by levers, sliding walls, big giant sliding grates and stuff. There's absolutely no way there's enough room in this place for counter-weights.




The next pit has another loose block that MAGICALLY opens the grate overhead.




The next room is the prison's indoor swimming pool.




Turning the crank on the wall opens an underwater doorway.




The underwater doorway leads to a small room that exists for no purpose other than to be flooded and to contain this hidden chest.




The chest contains a Wrymguard helm, gloves, boots and a yellow potion. Who do you suppose would have hidden Wyrmguard armor in this chest? Do you think it's a Wyrmguard initiation rite to have to find your own Wyrmguard armor after they brainwash you? Or do you suppose one of the Wyrmguard hides his armor here, because he has enough free time to turn that crank, swim through a 60 m flooded tunnel and climb to the top of this room every time he wants to commit acts of evil? And then you have to consider that this is a Britannian prison, so it's not terribly likely that a Wrymguard would be able to walk to and fro his secret armor hiding spot unmolested. THIS MAKES NO SENSE.




We take out our confusion by brutally murdering another guard.




The guard is kind of a slob. Let's clean up his desk for him!









As we walk down the hallway another feeble mortal makes noise at us.




: What did you do to get thrown in here?
: I was thrown in here for slaving, but slavery is legal in Buccaneer's Den.
: If I'd been slaving in Moonglow or Britain I could understand, but I've never done that. All of my activities are sanctioned by the law.






What should we do? (Note: We can't use murder on her. )
