Our last island visit was pretty much a failure and we could have lost some progres if not for backup savestate. I think there are only two
things we can do right now. First thing is to go back to second island in Utgard and see if we can open those closed doors now. Second thing we
can try is to give Necklace to one of the Norns and see if we will get anything from it. But let's check out those closed doors on second
island first.
After some island hopping we are ready to disembark.
Those doors are what stopped us not so long ago.
My only hope is that they don't require diamond key because we only have one.
Nope, iron key was enough and we still have two of those left.
Goddamit, ninja spiders.
He dropped useless, regular axe.
Let se if this exit in the north is actually exit and not only decoration.
Aaand it's just a decoration.
Time to switch to Aegir.
We have found some food, jade key and one very interesting scroll...
That's something new. Let's try not to lose it.
Let's keep exploring.
Another spider hole?
Yes, probably someone at 8TH Day forget to draw cobwebs on those black holes.
Bastard died after three hits and dropped only regular dagger.
It looks like we will have to use more keys, which is not such a bad thing since we
have fucking tons of them.
We managed to open first door with silver key.
What the-? I didn't catched it but this blob-dude spit fireball at something and now SHITS ON FIRE! I don't like this room, let's check other
ones.
Regular key was enough to open those doors.
Oh hai there shiny!
Le ruby, or to be more precise - Le RED ruby.
Ok, let's see what else is in here.
No, we don't want to leave yet. This whole island just smells of progress. Let' go back.
Let's try this opened exit to the south.
Food and resurrection scroll.
Sorcerers convention...
And we have no invitation.
Dude had whole crapton of hit points but did very little damage. He also dropped two useless scrolls which we discarded (curse and raise str).
Now we have to take care of his friend.
This guy actually did pretty decent damage but he dropped just 10 gold coins.
Let's loot this chest.
Some useless weapons (runic axes and such) and two healing scrolls. One simple restore and one restore all. We used first one to heal Aegir a
little bit and we will use second one when we'll be back at the ship. Now let's quickly backtrack to this fire spitting blob...
Well, disenchant scroll doesn't work here.
But how about the Water?
Water worked!
We put down the fire and were able to loot the chest. We found some not very useful scrolls and one interesting weapon...
Storm blade, better than what we already had.
But that's it for this island.
We have found red ruby and in next episode we shall go back to Iduna's island and try to give it to godess of... something in exchange for her apples.
