info ПРИМЕЧАНИЯ:     *** THIS IS A BIG MISSION WITH 3-DIMENSIONAL STRUCTURE AND SUBTLE PUZZLES. ***

Note: For best results, play sneaker style. There are hints, subtle and not-so-subtle, sprinkled throughout the mission. LISTEN CAREFULLY TO GARRETT; he can sense when something is out of the ordinary. Not all is what it may appear to be, so don't always trust your eyes. Remember: You can win the mission on Expert playing Lytha-style; no damage given/taken, and get all of the loot. I've done it.

Several power-ups and quest items are randomly placed at the start of the mission for better replayability. Many of the AI have above-average intelligence and will search for you when you enter certain areas. So, just sneaking past an AI may not be safe, because the AI may get suspicious and decide to search the area. Stay alert.

Note: There are SUBSTANTIVE differences in the gameplay, puzzles, and AI, depending on the difficulty level. I suggest that you play all difficulties.

Normal: Standard play; you can slash-n-dash, but I suggest sneaker style.

Hard: You start without a sword. You can find it somewhere. You cannot kill humans, sentinels, nor minions; that is, NO KILLING. Knock-outs are allowed, but frowned upon (it's a sneaker mission).

Expert: You start with neither sword or blackjack. Search for them, but you don't need them. You cannot kill humans (knock-out is grudgingly allowed). You cannot harm sentinels (or cause them to injure themselves) nor their minions; that is, NO DAMAGE TO non-human AI; not even knock-outs. You must sneak to win the mission. It may be possible to ghost, but I haven't tried it. There are a few places where you must use moss arrows and water arrows, or have incredibly accurate timing to get past the AI.

Oh, did I mention that you should sneak?

After escaping from the Trials of the Master Keeper, I thought that I should
visit my friend Ybynwan. I wanted to learn more about Keeper technology, what Ybynwan calls, "Magic". In my line of work, "Magic" is simply misunderstood technology.

I received some interesting information from Ybynwan. The town of Eldevir has a strange stone obelisk called the "Varyx Obelisk". It's quite old and is rumored to have some connection to the keepers, but nobody knows for sure.

The Varyx Obelisk may be the connection I need to learn more about my former teachers, and maybe some profit. My conversation with Ybynwan in the town of Viowen convinced me that there is something worthwhile here in Eldevir. After several days traveling to Eldevir from Viowen, I learned that there is a curfew from dusk to dawn, and the patrol guards are very unforgiving. I must be cautious on the streets.

Amazing FM for its age. It took me a bit over two hours to finish on the highest difficulty.
I wasn't too invested in the story about keepers and obelisk, but I appreciate that it's there. The main thing for me in this mission was the atmosphere and gameplay. This FM is very labyrinth-like most likely because of when it was made, but it actua...
