King's Quest V Hints
How do I get out of the forest?
1 of 14: If you still haven't taken care of the witch, you might be able to get out just by following the path you took to get in.
2 of 14: As you were looking around the forest, did anything look back?
3 of 14: Do you see the three sets of eyes just west of the house entrance?
4 of 14: Maybe the owners of those emerald green eyes could help.
5 of 14: Did you find a pouch in the witch's house? Did you open it? Open the pouch by opening your inventory, and putting the hand on it.
6 of 14: You will get three emeralds from the pouch.
7 of 14: Give the emeralds to the eyes, which turn out to belong to elves.
8 of 14: What, they are just a little too fast for you?
9 of 14: This is a sticky problem, maybe there is a sweet way to slow them down.
10 of 14: Did you have the honeycomb? If not, you'll have to restore and get it. The next hint explains how to get the honeycomb.
11 of 14: You'll have to help out the bees when they are attacked by a bear.
12 of 14: Choose the honeycomb as the cursor, and then apply it to yourself.
13 of 14: You will squeeze the honey onto the ground, to make a trap.
14 of 14: Now give all the emeralds to the elves. All will become clear.
