[edit] Zone 1: Fort Istirus

Fort Istirus

You start in this zone at an intersection. If you take the left, you will only find one or two enemies and will end up at door C; the right, leads to most of the current level and door D to the third level. In the next small room there is a Darts trap (T) which protects a minor loot chest. It can easily be dealt with by entering sneak mode and then activating the chest.

Occupants:

Traps:

  • 1 Darts trap at location T on map

Other:

  • 1 bedroll at location b on map

[edit] Zone 2: Fort Istirus Sanctuaries

Fort Istirus Sanctuaries
An altar in Fort Istirus Sancturies

You can enter this zone from either Fort Istirus (through door C ) or Fort Istirus Barracks (through door E). This zone can be quite tricky as you will always have to fight two if not three necromancers at the same time.

In the first room after door C is a stone altar with a Headless Zombie corpse.

[edit] Zone 3: Fort Istirus Barracks

Fort Istirus Barracks

As with the second zone you can enter this one from either Fort Istirus (through door D) or Fort Istirus Sanctuaries (door E).

In the first room after door E are the Boss-level Necromancer boss (A), the Boss Chest (B), a Dart trap (T) and another necromancer. The boss is on a small balcony overlooking the room and you might be able to take him out without drawing the second necromancer into the fight. On the same balcony is a stone altar with a Zombie corpse.

To arrive at door D you will have to make your way through a corridor until you arrive at another balcony from which you will have to jump down into a room with two necromancers ready to greet you. This room also contains two bedrolls (b), 4 Dart traps (T) under the bridge and a drawbrige at F. This is initially raised and you'll have to lower it by activating the switch in front of it (cyan dot on the map). The bridge brings you to a previously inaccessible area which contains two chests and possibly one more necromancer.

Occupants:

  • 1 boss-level Necromancer at location A on map
  • 5-6 Necromancers

Treasure:

Traps:

  • 4 Darts traps at locations T on map

Doors and Gates:

  • There are two doors in/out of this zone
  • 1 Drawbridge (initially raised) at F

Other:

  • 2 bedrolls at locations b on map
