Ultima 7: Black Gate Hints

Finishing It All

  • 1 of 7: Well, technically you can now talk to the alchemist and return to Alagner with answers. However, being the Avatar makes its demands on you, so you better do yet another good deed, right?
  • 2 of 7: Talk to Horace. He'll tell you to take Rowena home.
  • 3 of 7: That done, return to him and receive another task.
  • 4 of 7: Start by talking to Mayor. Then, ask everyone else in town.
  • 5 of 7: Be sure you didn't forget the alchemist and the Ferryman.
  • 6 of 7: Return to Mayor and bring him to the Well of Souls.
  • 7 of 7: As a reward, Horace will give you a Firedoom Staff. Nice weapon, but it's risky to be used in closed quarters with your friends present. It's a loner's weapon.
