Section 211
) You must have the Power of Evocation in order to attempt to raise the dead priest.

[
25
] (
Section 215
) If you have arrived here from
Section 156
, there is no description of how the Shadakine officer is killed. This appears to be an oversight by the author.

[
26
] (
Section 215
) If you do not have sufficient
WILLPOWER
points, you may choose to simply subtract the specified number of
WILLPOWER
points. This may leave you with a negative
WILLPOWER
score, or if it was already negative, it will make your score become even more negative. Alternatively, you may choose the method used in
Section 175
of
War of the Wizards
for resolving this problem: For the
WILLPOWER
points you lack, you use
ENDURANCE
points at a rate of 2
ENDURANCE
points for every 1
WILLPOWER
point (i.e. 2
ENDURANCE
points = 1
WILLPOWER
point).

[

] (
Section 215
) Tarama Seeds may be recorded as Special Items since they don't take up space in your Herb Pouch or Backpack. Each Tarama Seed can be used to cast exactly one spell or to use your Wizard's Staff outside of close combat (e.g. to fire a bolt of energy at a distant enemy) without using the normally required
WILLPOWER
points. Tarama Seeds cannot be used to maintain the effect of a spell or in place of other drains on your
WILLPOWER
, like mental attacks. It also seems inappropriate to use a Tarama Seed in close combat where you could then decide to expend an infinite amount of
WILLPOWER
to automatically win a fight.

[
28
] (
Section 229
) If you do not have sufficient
WILLPOWER
points, you may choose to simply subtract the specified number of
WILLPOWER
points. This may leave you with a negative
WILLPOWER
score, or if it was already negative, it will make your score become even more negative. Alternatively, you may choose the method used in
Section 175
of
War of the Wizards
for resolving this problem: For the
WILLPOWER
points you lack, you use
ENDURANCE
points at a rate of 2
ENDURANCE
points for every 1
WILLPOWER
point (i.e. 2
ENDURANCE

WILLPOWER
point).

[

] (
Section 245
) Make sure to restore your Wizard's Staff, Backpack, and Backpack Items to your
Action Chart
.

[
30
] (
Section 248
) If you do not have sufficient
WILLPOWER
points, you may choose to simply subtract the specified number of
WILLPOWER
points. This may leave you with a negative
WILLPOWER
score, or if it was already negative, it will make your score become even more negative. Alternatively, you may choose the method used in
Section 175
of
War of the Wizards
for resolving this problem: For the
WILLPOWER
points you lack, you use
ENDURANCE
points at a rate of 2
ENDURANCE
points for every 1
WILLPOWER
point (i.e. 2

WILLPOWER

[

] (
Section 257
) If you do not have sufficient
WILLPOWER
points, you may choose to simply subtract the specified number of
WILLPOWER
points. This may leave you with a negative
WILLPOWER
score, or if it was already negative, it will make your score become even more negative. Alternatively, you may choose the method used in
Section 175
of
War of the Wizards
for resolving this problem: For the
WILLPOWER
points you lack, you use
ENDURANCE
points at a rate of 2
ENDURANCE
points for every 1
WILLPOWER
point (i.e. 2
ENDURANCE
points = 1
WILLPOWER
point).

[
32
] (
Section 259
) There are numerous unanswered questions with this combat. The addition of
WILLPOWER
and
ENDURANCE
is straightforward, but which attribute do you lower when wounded in this mental combat? A mental combat would suggest that you will lose
WILLPOWER
as this is the measure of you mental strength. It is possible to have a negative
WILLPOWER
score which would mean that the combat would only come to an end when the Darkling Room's
ENDURANCE
was lowered to 0. Using your true
ENDURANCE
score is the less paradoxical route.

In either case, if your
WILLPOWER
or
ENDURANCE
score is lowered during a round of combat, do you then adjust your combined
WILLPOWER
and
ENDURANCE
score which is serving as your
COMBAT SKILL
for this combat?

There are no easy answers to these questions. It is up to the reader to decide which solution is most appropriate.

Also, you cannot use your Wizard's Staff in this combat; since the combat is mental in nature, it would be inappropriate to use it, which means that you should not be able to use
WILLPOWER
to multiply your opponent's loss of
ENDURANCE
.

[
33
] (
Section 264
) The section corresponding to the correct answer will have a footnote confirming that it is indeed correct.

[
34
] (
Section 279
) If you do not have sufficient
WILLPOWER
points, you may choose to simply subtract the specified number of
WILLPOWER
points. This may leave you with a negative
WILLPOWER
score, or if it was already negative, it will make your score become even more negative. Alternatively, you may choose the method used in

points for every 1
WILLPOWER

WILLPOWER
point).

[

] (
Section 297
) These empty Vials may be used later to contain potions. Some Vials are useless once contaminated.

[
36
] (
Section 300
) Keep note of your Backpack Items in case you should find your Backpack again later.

[
37
] (
Section 304
) If you do not have sufficient
WILLPOWER
points, you may choose to simply subtract the specified number of
WILLPOWER
points. This may leave you with a negative
WILLPOWER
score, or if it was already negative, it will make your score become even more negative. Alternatively, you may choose the method used in
Section 175
of
War of the Wizards
for resolving this problem: For the
WILLPOWER
points you lack, you use
ENDURANCE
points at a rate of 2
ENDURANCE
points for every 1
WILLPOWER
point (i.e. 2
ENDURANCE
points = 1
WILLPOWER
point).

[
38
] (
Section 311
) Keep note of your Backpack Items in case you should find your Backpack again later.

[
39
] (
Section 320
) These losses are in addition to any you may have already sustained in your duel with the Kazim Stone.

[
40
] (
Section 342
) There is no choice that leads to this section of the book. This appears to be an oversight which is not easily correctable.
