We've made some progress in our adventure, but we still have a long way to go.
From the dead giant, go EAST. You'll approach a small door in the rock, with an inscription above that reads "This is the domain of the Wicked Witch of the mountain. A hideous curse will befall anyone entering here." If you remember earlier, when we read the scroll after getting it, we were given a brief vision of this door before dying, loading our game, and getting over here. If you READ SCROLL now, the scroll will pop out of your hands and fly to the other side as the door in the rock opens. If you take too long before you type ENTER or IN, the door will close before you can get through, and you will make the game unwinnable. You'll have to LOAD your game to try again.
By going through the opening immediately, you'll enter a tunnel, and the door will slam shut behind you. From here, you will have to go forward in order to go back. You can READ SCROLL without having to pick it up, and if you do, you'll find out that the scroll has changed to contain this message:
To carry out your t
the five Platonic S
lead you to the Wit
their mystical prop
required to defeat
the mountain and r
Klein Bottle
This is the other half of the message. Here is the message in full:
To carry out your task you must find
the five Platonic Solids. They will
lead you to the Witch's cavern, where
their mystical properties will be
required to defeat the Wicked Witch of
the mountain and recover the mysterious
Klein Bottle
Keep this in mind for later.
From the entrance to the tunnel, go NORTH. You will be in a narrow north-south tunnel. Go NORTH again, and you'll find the letter "O" scratched into the wall. Going NORTH again leads you deep into the mountain, and you will also find a torus. A torus is a ring-shaped geometrical object. TAKE TORUS.
Going NORTH again takes you to a curious space. Once you enter this area, you can't go back, so make sure you've taken the torus or else you'll have made the game unwinnable. You'll soon end up in a strange room with an exit to the west. Go WEST. You will be at the east end of a brightly lit east-west corridor with a number of entrances leading off the corridor at various points. Go WEST and keep going WEST. (If you go west once and then go south, you'll enter a room full of icicles and you will be frozen, soft-locking the game and making it unwinnable.) You'll soon find a luminous gem and a magic wand. TAKE WAND. Leave the gem alone.
Go NORTH. You'll enter a spell chamber with stars on the walls. You'll also find a box of spells. GET SPELLS. If you try to go south, you won't be able to leave, so WAVE WAND to get out. You'll end back up where you found the wand and the gem. Go WEST, and you'll find an "L" carved in the floor. Go NORTH from here. You will be in a room with five-pointed stars engraved in the walls, and an evil presence that you can sense. There is also a voodoo doll in the room. TAKE DOLL, then go SOUTH to go back to the corridor. Go WEST twice from here to reach the west end of the east-west corridor. You'll see a stretch of water to the north.
If you were to go SOUTH from where you saw the "L" and kept going, you would have run into a vicious looking dog. You won't be able to do anything there yet, but thankfully, the vicious looking dog cannot hurt you if you try to go past him. Just go back NORTH to the east-west corridor.
From where you can see the stretch of water to the north, go NORTH. You will be at the end of an east-west ledge by the side of a large pool. Go WEST, and you'll find a recess in the rocks. ENTER the recess, then DROP SPELLS here. When you do, the box of spells will dematerialize when you set them down. You will need to do this, as this will teleport the box of spells elsewhere, allowing you to get them at a later point. EXIT the recess, then go WEST. You'll be at the end of the ledge, overlooking the pool. JUMP to jump off the cliff and get into the pool.
You will be underwater, and you will not be able to breath normally. If you take too long underwater, you will die. Once you are in the water, go SOUTH. You'll find an octahedron. GET OCTAHEDRON, then go NORTH and then go UP. This will allow you to surface out of the pool and get your air back. You'll be back on the ledge. JUMP to get back in the water, go SOUTH, then go EAST. You will find the letter "Y" formed in the bed of the pool. Go SOUTH. You'll find a cave entrance to the south, but if you enter it, a giant squid will find you and kill you. Instead, go WEST. You'll reach the end of the underwater passage and an area where you can surface. Go UP, and you'll be at the other side of the pool with a beach to the west.
