Arx Fatalis Hints
How can I get inside the City?
1 of 7: The guard at the gate to the city will not let you inside, even to trade gems, because the gem business has halted due to the trolls' strike. Perhaps you should find out more about the strike.
2 of 7: Try speaking with the goblin foreman inside the trolls' camp.
3 of 7: Give King Lunshire's letter to the troll guarding the camp and he will let you pass. If you haven't spoken to Lunshire yet, you'll have to do that first, unless you feel strong enough to attack the troll.
4 of 7: The foreman wants to know why the trolls have gone on strike, but they refuse to tell him. They might be persuaded to tell you, however.
5 of 7: Speak with King Pog in the troll camp to find out the reason behind the strike.
6 of 7: The trolls have ceased mining because a protective idol was stolen from them. Return to the foreman and agree to help retrieve the idol, and he will lead you into the city.
7 of 7: If you've attacked the goblins and find yourself locked out of the city, getting inside will require the use of the Telekinesis spell. While looking through the window, cast the spell on the lever to open the gate.
