Might and Magic VIII: Day of the Destroyer Hints

How do I open this Vault of Time thing near the NE end of town?

  • 1 of 7: With the proper key.
  • 2 of 7: It's called Emperor Thorn's Key.
  • 3 of 7: The Unicorn King has it (I don't know why).
  • 4 of 7: He only appears in Murmurwoods at a particular spot on a particular day, and only if you've read all 9 obelisks.
  • 5 of 7: Yes, the Vault of Time is the obelisk treasure for this game.
  • 6 of 7: It contains lots of Diamonds and Stalt-Laced Ore, as well as the artifact items entitled Elderaxe, Foulfang, and Scepter of Kings.
  • 7 of 7: Before you open it, make sure your inventories are empty enough to hold everything, because the key disappears, making it impossible to open again (until Ravenshore regenerates, which happens 2 years after you first enter it).
