Dilandau3000 plays King's Quest VI: Heir Today, Gone Tomorrow - Part 8 of 43


It's now time to make some last-minute item grabs and discoveries before we head off to the rest of the islands...

All maps by Dan_.


Be sure to take one of the mints out of the blue bowl on the counter.

When you head back to the fork in the road, you'll see a nightingale. This nightingale just might be Sing-Sing. Use the mechanical nightingale on the bird, and the real nightingale will come closer. You could use the love poem on the bird. The bird will take it. It doesn't go as planned, as Cassima thinks that the poem comes Vizier Abdul al-Hazred as soon as she gets it, and tells Sing-Sing to stay away from al-Hazred, proving she doesn't want to marry him after all. Therefore, you don't want to do this just yet. Notice that there is a green snake that will lower down from the tree as you deliver the poem, and that its eyes will glow gold. That is Shamir disguised as a snake, and he appears to be on to you.

To recap: don't send the love poem to Cassima just yet. You need to do something else first.

Head back to the village. The pawn shop owner will dump stuff in a pot. Reach into the pot with the hand icon to find an empty-looking ink bottle. Alexander will take it. If you use the hand icon on the bottle when you look at it in the inventory, you'll hear a faint swishing sound. If you use it on Alexander, you'll find out it's full of invisible ink. This will really come to good use now.

It's now time to visit some of the other islands...
