CRYSTAL OF CHANTIE
Pelagon Software
Walk Through by Dorothy Millard (Spectrum GAC Version)
Scenario:
Hidden in the Tibetan mountains is the country of Senavie, and it was to
here one day, from the midst of a violent storm, that a sick stranger
arrived. The impish inhabitants of Senavie nursed the stranger back to
health, and in return he gave them the Crystal of Chantie, a powerful gem
with eternal life force. But the gem has been stolen by the evil Count
Vulgar and his servant Puck. Senavie is now a desolate, icy waste and it
is your quest to find the gem and return it before Vulgar uses it to
conquer the world.
