Tower of Mauvair
This level can be extremely
difficult or extremely easy depending upon your approach.
Merlin transports you to a teleportation pad on Kronos.
From Kronos, you can teleport to the volcanic lands near
Mauvair's tower. You will find that Mauvair is a big fan of
fire, critters, and high ledges (hope you are not afraid of
heights). Here's a rundown of the standard approach:
- While on Kronos, recharge, save, and read the
terminals
- Stand by the teleport controls to activate panels,
one of which is a switch that re-activates the teleport
pad you arrived on
- Return to the teleport pad after it's re-activated,
and you'll be transported to an unstable volcanic area
- Exit the cave, leap across the lava using the rock
steps, then follow the cliff to the time gate
- Save the game before entering the time gate, then
walk through the time gate (you cannot return)
- Do not stand around too long, as you'll be under a
flurry of fire from snakes and firebeasts
- Jump to the center, and climb the spiral cliffs up to
the top (shoot the snakes on the cliffs, and duck from
firebeasts)
- Enter the top of the tower through the wood door and
step into the center of the star to teleport to the next
level
Eye Candy / Extras
- Notice the pillar to the right slides up and down,
indicating an opening at the bottom of the pillar
- The easier way through this level is to jump into the
lava and enter the bottom of the pillar (you'll get an
invincibility potion that will help you survive the lava)
- Take the pillar lift to the center of the mountain,
and you'll find many potions as well as a save terminal
and a Mauvair message
- If you are fast, you can exit the mountain center and
begin your ascent with some invincibility left
- Once in the room at the top, if you stand on the tips
of the star, you'll teleport to the center, then to the
next level
- Upon entering the door at the top, you'll activate
Mauvair and his laughter and lightning will light up the
wall where Morgana's ghost image is displayed
- You can explore (and eradicate) the firebeast nest if
you're really brave, but there is no reward except the
satisfaction of being a champion
