SOLUTIONS TO SHATTERED WORLD QUESTS


Quest number 1 (destroy Ur's fortress)

Ur's fortress is in the plains north of the main stretch.  You need a thief
and a mage.  Bring the mage into the fortress, go e, n, n, move rug, d,
get the wood, u, n, n, put the wood on the altar, then have the mage use
his PureFire spell to start the summoning ritual.  A demon will appear but
you can escape to the e.  Leave him there and do NOT try to kill him, he
is impossiblE.

Go u, n, open door, n, n, then have the thief steal Ur's staff.  NOTE that
whoever is carrying Ur's staff, Ur will teleport after you and attack you!
Have the thief go back to the demon and give the staff to the demon.  Ur
will attack the demon and the demon will finish him off.  After Ur is dead,
the fortress will start collapsing immediately!  The other players should be
out of the fortress first, but the thief will have to escape.  The escape
route is different from the entry route because of the collapsing walls:
s, w, w, u, w, d, s, s, e, s, s, out.

Quest number 2 (restore the princesses' Virtue)

The trick to this one is that Virtue is the princess' lost pet falcon.
search the palace grounds until you find a feather.  go to the palace
kennels and give the feather to any of the hounds except the really old
one.  the hound will lead you directly to the falcon every time, and it
is different every time the quest starts up.

If the falcon is in a small space, you need to wear the leather glove
from the princess' bedroom and stick your glove into the hole.

If the falcon is in the open, it will see you and fly away back to the
princess IF you are not wearing the glove.  If you are wearing the glove
it will get confused and fly someplace totally different.

If there are two falcons, you have to put the glove on and whistle.  Virtue
will perch on your glove.

Come back to the princess and when she has Virtue she will kiss you and
you've solved the quest.

Quest number 3 (avoid the master player killer for two hours)

To start this one you have to go to the caves in the mountains off the
plains.  Tie the rope to the ring and climb down.  At the bottom will
be a wise old man.  Say "quest" and the old man will tell you the secret
phrase to start the battle.  You have to shout the phrase.  It is different
every time.

The master player killer is a mage with 4 summon spells, 3 gate spells,
and 6 blaze spells.  He knows all the standard town area, Yaz' castle,
Kantele's mansion, Borric's castle, and Tim's castle.  The other castles
he doesn't know but he is a pretty good guesser and can always spot you
in an adjacent room.  

all you have to do is survive.  Once you ditch him, you can just hide in
one place until the last fifteen minutes, then he starts using any spells
he has left.  You can always quit and the master player killer will just
take your stuff and forget about you.

Quest number 4 (re-activate the Machine)

the Machine is in Qa's castle.  Qa's castle is west of the orcs.  You
will find lots of good experience in the castle, and also some labeled
machine components lying around.  In the room on the top floor, there
is the partially assembled machine and some instructions on how to fix it.

The hard part is figuring out the instructions for the Machine which
are written in a special language.  This is the way the language works:

   za, ra, ba, la, and da are different parts of the machine.  The za is the
   buzzsaw-like part, a ra is a ball, a ba is a screw, a la is a hole, and
   da is the switch.
   "x te/de/ke y" means "x relates to y", e.g. "ra te la".
   no means you, and to means the machine.
   The numbers are ji, jo, zhi, ro, hu, tsa, ri, fuu, fa, and ye, meaning
   0 through 9; e.g. joji means 10.
   "x<n>" means "x" number n, as in zazhiri (buzzsaw 26).  "<n>x" means
   n copies of x, as in tsara ke laro (put 5 balls in hole number 3).

Just follow the instructions and the Machine will come on.  you can use
the machine for one free complete heal.

Quest 5 (retrieve the black dragon's scales)

The black dragon is in the caves south of Yaz' castle.  The only trick
to the black dragon is that he has dest breath, and it destroys your armor
and weapons one at a time.  Carry lots of cheap stuff.

After you kill the dragon, search his corpse you will find the scales.
