Ultima IX: Ascension Hints
What should I do about Anaaj?
1 of 5: If you select the right line of conversation, she will open the portcullis *and* be under your control.
2 of 5: It is possible to trap her in the cage above her head. It takes a bit of planning and positioning.
3 of 5: To keep her alive, select "I am not your enemy," and then "I've got to go. Goodbye." Rush over to the wench and pull the lever. If she has not moved much, the cage will fall on her and she'll be trapped.
4 of 5: To get her to open the portcullis, select "That's not going to happen," and then tell her to open the portcullis. Then agree to free her if she opens it.
5 of 5: Go about the business of securing the Glyph. You will walk through this room again and can free her then if you wish. She'll still be out to kill you, but it really serves no purpose to kill her. You can easily run away from her.
