OUR STORY PART 6

You now need to venture to Good Wizard Gardolfis’s castle to retrieve the next blade of the sword. Wizard Gardolfis is very elusive. Gardolfis changes his home to suit his needs, one day it will be a tree, but the next it will be a rock. There is no telling what it will be today.

Sir Garret tells you that Wizard Gardolfis only lets people inside his house that he deems worthy, “Unfortunately, I’m not worthy of his presence, as I’m only a knight. You, however, are a hero to this land so he will let you enter his domain.”

Once you find the cache, Gardolfis welcomes you to his great domain. He tells you, “I have been tasked all these years with protecting the orange blade of the Great Sword. Now I will present it to you, use it well to end Geopoxe’s reign of evil pumpkin heads. The next piece you must find is the red tip of the sword, but beware time is ticking!”
