I have a couple of questions. I seem to be stuck at 80 solves, 15 intellect and 47 magic level. I have the second Trismegistus piece, the Hermes Chalice, the Alchemist Bracelet, and 37 spirits captured (if that leads to anything significant). I also have the staves of Earth, Flames, and Wind, and now I am looking for the Drain one, but I can't seem to find it. I have Displace III and have used it on the appropriate nearby pillar, but I need the drain staff to drain the lava, and I don't seem to be fast enough to beat the timed gate. So I was wondering where that thing was, since I've never seen any other staff besides the ones I have. I'm pretty sure I've looked almost everywhere, too, and I can't seem to think of anything that I might have missed.
I have also spoken to the worm-like creature in the fire realm and the mimic chest in the wind realm to get their magic upgrades, and I was wondering if the earth and water realms had creatures like that, too? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm working on an unauthorized version of Trismegistus which will include a great number of all around improvements to Sword of Moonlight in general which I hope to have finalized (though probably not bug-free) sometime around new years. Please keep an eye out. Maybe with any luck Tom will drag Trismegistus out and fix some of the user interface probs Todd tells me the game suffers from.
I've not been able to advance too far into the game myself, though I'm a big fan. Todd tells me he's beaten the game with both endings and apparently no demon was summoned upon completion to make his life more complicated or whatever
