Dilandau3000 plays Space Quest II: Vohaul's Revenge - Part 7 of 13

In this entry, we explore a cave. This is the most interesting part of Labion, mostly because it's a breath of fresh air compared to aboveground.

Once you land on the ledge to the left, go left and enter the cave. By going west, you'll soon become a pair of light blue floating eyeballs, but you don't want to venture too far doing that. HOLD GEM. You'll be able to light up the cave, but you'll also hear a small shriek and the sound of many footsteps moving away from you.

Once you go all the way west, the ground below your feet will disappear and you will fall. You'll end up outside where a bunch of rocks are, and you'll meet some of the little pink creatures that you've met earlier on this planet. Thanks to the translator, you will know that they will tell you to follow them before leaving. Before you go anywhere, GET GEM to get your glowing gem back, then go south. You'll meet their leader, who thanks you for saving their friend from the hunters by letting you stay here as long as you need to and to just say the word if you need to leave to be directed to the only way out for someone of your size. Once you leave, however, they will have to seal the exit behind them for their own protection.

You can look and talk to the pink creatures with LOOK PEOPLE, but it doesn't do much and they just giggle. If you type SAY THE WORD, the pink creatures will move out of the way to reveal a ladder in the ground. Once you go through here, you can't go back, so make sure you have the gem before you leave.

Go down the ladder. It will be dark again. If you wait long enough, you'll hear an inhuman guttural moan echo through the caves. This is the cave squid, and it will get a hold of you if you go the wrong way. HOLD GEM IN MOUTH. You'll be able to light the area up. (If you just type "HOLD GEM," you won't be able to do anything.) Climb down the ladder, and make sure you save your game. Once you climb down, go right, then climb down the first ladder you see. At the bottom, go right, then climb down the next ladder. Go right again, then climb down the next ladder. At the bottom, go left. Skip the first two ladders you see, and go down the third one. When you're able to go right, do so. Keep going in that direction, and you'll be out.

You'll then end up in a cave with luminous water and waterfalls, and Roger Wilco will put the glowing gem back in his pocket. Wade east through the water and you'll soon come across a swiftly moving river. follow the path. If you take the left fork, you'll die as soon as you drop down the waterfall.
