• 1 Dread Knight
• 1 Minor Lich

First of all, go West and talk to the Undead Wizard:


"Ah, a member of the living, I am in need of your service. Will you help me?"


Reply "Yes"

"Oh good! Now where to start....You see, I am... make that was... an apprentice
of Lichtan. He intrusted me with his deepest secrets and now I fear, no...now
I know he has gone too far. He is working for the mighty Aries to raise an army
powerful enough to kill all life on this earth.

Unfortunately I, nor any other member of the undead, can defeat him. He controls
all of us in one way or another."

*Another voice comes from out of nowhere*

"Oh Traitor of the unwordly, you shale die for your treachery."

*The Lich you were talking to vanishes in a puff of smoke.*

Exit chat and then go back East to the start point

Now you can safely flip the Switch of the Dead on

Go East and hit the Bridge Lock on

Go East twice into a Fight:

2 Skeletons

Flick the Bridge Lock Off and then go North and flip
the switch.

Go East and hit another switch (as you can probably guess, this is the infamous
Switch Maze)

Go North and then East flipping both switches on the way, then go South and
hit that switch.

Go West and North, flip the switch on - do not at this point flip OFF any switches
you come across

Go North and then West, flipping the switches, South, flick the switch, then
go East, North and East again, flip the switch.

Now go West twice, South and West once more and walk
right and unsuspecting into a Fight: 1 Ghoul

Now you will be getting hurt from the spring that is
here, but it isnt much to worry about

Hit the Switch to Four Times and then go South

Hit the Bridge Lock on and go South twice into another Fight: 1 Zombie
Lord

Hit the Trap Switch to on and read the letter:


"So a member of the flesh wishes to see the all powerful. Be warned you must
pass three tests of the undead before you may pass.

First is the test of fortitude: Go to the west and talk to the undead knight
there and he will challenge all that you hold dear.

Second is the test of Wisdom: Go to the East and you will Find yourself trapped
in a puzzle with no hope of getting out.

Third is the test of Time. Only those who understand it's ways will pass.

Travel south and open your heart to death."

So we go West to talk to the Glowing Knight. He'll ask
you if you are ready, answer: "Yes" and the Fight
will start

The first three opponents are Zombies, number four is a Zombie Lord. They come
one at a time but a word of warning here: Use potions and conserve spell points,
if you use the 'W' or 'R' buttons in between these fights, you will die.




Once you have killed all the opponents, and still call for more, the Knight
will say: "Well done my child, you prove yourself
to be full of fortitude, you may continue with your quest" and award you 2000
exp.


NOW you can use the rest buttons.

Go East twice, there is a poem here:

"Every day of every month we see things

New images grace our eyes and our hearts

Everything we do brings happiness anew

Everyone we love and everyone we knew;

Sometimes we just have to sit down

  And accept that which we are given

  And hold dear to those that we knew"

The First letter of each line corresponds to the first
step of your directions. The last letters are the next step. So go East, North,
East twice, and South into a Fight: 1 Zombie Lords


Flip the Switch of Wisdom on and then go South twice, West
twice, North twice and West.

Now for the third of those tests, go West and then South


Use the 'W' and 'R' buttons to get the time to 8:00, and a switch will appear,
hit it and go South into a Fight: 2 Skeletons here.



The next switch appears at 12:00, so wait for that and then go South again to
Fight: 1 Zombie Lord

Now we must wait until 15:00 At this time, a switch appears. Flip it to experience
and go West for a Fight: 1 Ghoul



Now there appears to be no way out, but wait until 19:00 and then flip the Switch
of Death that appears. Go West and North and Fight: 2 Skeletons and then
1 Zombie



Go North and talk to the Dread Knight:

"Ah at last, the hero of flesh shows up! I hope my simple traps weren't too
harsh on thee. I fear that my goodness in life is far too strong for the evil
bestowed inside of me by Lichtan. I must help thee avenge that which he has
done to me and countless others like myself. All I know is that in less than
a fortnight from now, he will use his power over the undead and shed blood over
the earth. You must prevent this from happening. You must travel deeper into
these catacombs and kill Lichtan, but you must not stop there, you must find
Aries and kill him!"



Choose: "I am ready to die now" and
Fight: 1 Dread Knight

After the fight, you will be awarded an extra 4000 exp before you go down to
the next part of the Ancient Catacombs.


 

 *A WORD OF WARNING HERE TOO: When given the option here of going down or going
north, I don't recommend that you go north, there is a graveyard there and about
fifty undead beings come at you all at once.*
