Dungeon Wrong: Complete solution (Part 5)





He isn't kidding. Wrong is a shorter dungeon than Deceit.




Helping this guy gave us a point of karma.




Now we head to the other end of the hallway and out the only door.




Two of the chests in this room are Mimics. One has some leather armor in it and the other is packed with reagents and a summon reagents scroll. We take the Mandrake Root from the chest and leave everything else.




When we walk into this room...




...the doors close...




..and the floor drops. The water is full of giant fish. They bite us.




An underwater valve wheel on the right-hand side opens the door out.




The next passageway has these portculli that keep opening and closing randomly but don't pose any serious obstruction.




Eventually we reach an intersection. We keep going straight.




At the end of the next hallway is this room.






As soon as we enter the room the doors close and this saucy tart winks into existence.


: What reason do you have to kill me?
: Don't try to play innocent, Avatar. I know the truth about you. The Guardian's power turned me from justice, and it was you that brought the Guardian here!

For once an NPC knows something we don't. And by 'we' I mean you. I see everything coming before it happens.

: It's because of you. You made me what I am. You're responsible for what I have become!
: And now that my hate has free reign, I choose to vent it on you!
: I am not your enemy. Let me help you.
: A friend? You were once a friend, but now, now it's different. Things can't go back to the way that they were.
: Yes they can, Jaana. That's why I'm here.
: My name is Anaaj! Do you hear me? Anaaj!

...

...





: ...
: Avatar, get back here! You're going to need my help! Did you hear me? You're going to need my help, Avatar!




Pushing the lever by the winch makes a cage drop over Jaanaaj.




: That's not going to happen, Jaana. You're staying right there where you can't hurt anybody.
: Is that right? Well, you left out one little detail, smart guy: I may be in this cell, but how are you going to get out of this room? No wait, let me answer for you: you can't. At least, not without my help.

I know she's right so I'm not going to bother looking.

: Open that portcullis, Jaana.
: My name is Anaaj!

This exchange reminds me of when my cousin changed her name to Shadow. My elder aunts just didn't understand her "pain" and kept forgetting to call her by her "spirit name".

: Look, you need me to get out of here just as badly as I need you to get out of this cell. What do you say?
: Fine, you open the portcullis, and I'll open your cell.
: No, you open the cell first.
: That I won't do. Now you have a choice, open the portcullis and trust me or we sit here and rot. Come on Anaaj, you know that I never lie.*
: Alright, but you'd better keep your word.

She opens the portcullis with the power of her mind I guess.

: Now let me out of here!




Do we keep our word(s)?
