Island Fort |
The entrance is from the north where you immediately meet some Sliths. You soon see that this fort is built around a system of lakes and canals.
It is best to go to the east and clear the side caves here of Sliths. Then you can take the boat an sail to the other parts, which are only reachable by boat.
The main area is to the SW of the central area. There are lots of Sliths there including priests and the Slith Chief. The Sliths drop a nice lot of treasure including a Strength Bracelet. When you have killed the chief you can get your first reward from Rosie.
In the SE of the main area is a secret passage in the north of a side passage to the east. After two traps you find two chests. The left one contains the plans Rosie wants. In the righthand one are a Nice Fur, 10 Steel Bolts and 60 coins.
To the south of the lake is a short passage which comes out onto the lake again. In the south is a hidden door which leads to a chest containing a Quarz Crystal.
The Hints Book says that the priest spell Sanctuary L3 can be learned here. That is a printing error (or at least misleading). It is actually in the Slith Fort. The problem is that there are three Slith Forts in this game: Slith Fortification, Island Fort (this one) and Slith Fort. The last two are also on an island; so the confusion is complete.
