Quest For Glory Epic Let's Play Parts 102 and 103: The Other Lovers and Wraithbusting

In Which Our Hero reunites Nikolai and Anna and clears Mordavia of wraiths.








A big night after a big day: Marcus starts off traipsing and tromping through the woods after putting the Wisps back in their swamp. He happens upon Anna's ghost, who is now joined by the ghost of Nikolai: at last the lovers are reunited in death. And Nikolai sounds like Robby Benson!

We talk to them for a while, and then go on a little wraithbusting spree, taking care of the rest of the restless undead in Mordavia valley. Our loot haul this time includes a killer set of plate mail armor, so Marcus is finally covered (so to speak.)

Back at town we rest in our room for a bit before going off to meet the Domovoi, who tells us of another Domovoi in 'the bad place' near the inn. Presumably the monastery. Which is where we leave off this time.

Next time: Marcus burns down a building!

Quest For Glory Epic Let's Play Part Ninety: Friends New and Old

In Which Our Hero is kicked out of a camp and meets someone he left hopping mad.





We open with Marcus wandering through a pleasant forest, ruminating on his surroundings and the history of Sierra when he is suddenly beset by that most fearsome of Mordavian monsters. I really don't want to spoil the surprise but it is an epic struggle and if you watch one video for the Shadows of Darkness portion, make sure it's this one for the thrilling and exciting combat.

After vanquishing this fearsome beast Marcus finds a gypsy camp, where he is told in no uncertain terms to 'go away.' Even his normal attempts at charm fail, and he eventually leaves, tail tucked. To find the other unexplored corner of the valley, hidden by a magic bush.

On the other side, there's a hangman's tree, a talking skull with a very familiar gem in it, and a particular hut on chicken legs that we've seen somewhere before.

Oh right, Baba Yaga, the ogress who cursed Spielburg valley and we defeated by turning her into a frog!

I'm sure she'll be tickled pink to see us.

Quest For Glory Epic Let's Play Part Seventy-Three: Mordavia Town

In Which Our Hero finds the town of Mordavia and meets the friendly locals.





We pick up in the swamp and make a run through the nighttime Mordavian forest to the town of Mordavia itself. Marcus has a quick poke around the outside and then walks in, much to the surprise of Dmitri, the Burgomeister.

Most of the rest of the video is Marcus' conversation with Dmitri, which is a bit lengthy but sets up part of the story for this game. Listening to the dialogue does make the game more interesting (and the subtitles slightly less distracting) but takes a little longer - so I anticipate there will be more updates for Shadows of Darkness than the other games.

At any rate, enjoy!
