SWORD OF THE STORM
Written by Doug Hyatt
Walk Through with Dorothy Millard (C64 Version)
Notes
1. You must poison the lion before giving the fang to Vaximian the Seer.
2. You must give the scroll to the king before freeing the slaves.
3. Before you give the money to the man in the stables, make sure you are carrying the bone, as you
only have one chance.
