  • 2 of 11: You'll find a total of 11 runes on this level.
  • 3 of 11: Search Maria's bedroom for a love letter from "L." Hmm...who could that be?
  • 4 of 11: In the castle scullery you'll find a book entitled "Cooking for Goblins". If you can find someone for whom this book might be of interest, give it to him to receive an experience bonus.

  • 6 of 11: You'll find a Ring of Casting among the wreckage of the portal structure outside the Guard Fortress.

  • 8 of 11: There are two items, a ring and a scroll, resting on a ledge between the Guard Fortress and the Tavern. Use Telekinesis to get them.

  • 10 of 11: For a bit of fun and profit, see if you can figure out how to rob the bank.
  • 11 of 11: The double doors between the Guard Fortress and the tavern can be opened with a key from King Lunshire. Make sure you're wearing some warm woolly mittens before stepping outside, though.
