Quest For Glory Epic Let's Play Parts 116 and 117: A Fine Morning and Hit Me Baba One More Time

In Which Our Hero enjoys the last normal morning in Mordavia and runs into Baba Yaga one last time.







This, ladies and gentlemen, is it: the beginning of the Quest for Glory IV endgame. The first video is really quite normal: it's the last real normal morning Marcus will have in Mordavia. He starts off with brekkie, talks to Bella and Yuri for a bit, then heads out to chat with Dmitri about Piotyr and being a Paladin. Igor has a few graveyard humor jokes too. It's on to the guild for a workout, on to Dr. Cranium's for some pills, and back to Dmitri to tell him about Nikolai. That's it.

There are a couple of loose ends to start wrapping up, the first being the final ritual we need to collect. The one hidden in the Hangman's Tree. Guess who's hanging on to it. Yup. So we get to visit our onetime foe one last time. She's far more cordial this time (probably because she isn't dead-set on having Marcus with a side of cordial), even taking the time to explain the Dark One situation in plain English. Or common, whatever it is.

That's where we leave off. Next time, we've got a fortune, then we're sneaking into Castle Borgov to start the final pieces of the game.

Until then...

Quest For Glory Epic Let's Play Part Eighty-Two: The Leshy

In Which Our Hero goes bush-diving.





Marcus' heart is still all aflutter from meeting such a nice, pretty lady! Wait, maybe it's aflutter because he's exhausted and bleeding out from his encounter with the Necrotaur?

Either way, Marcus takes five and it's a good thing because he meets another monster soon after: a Mordavian wyvern. Which he defeats of course, but it might have been a close fight had we not rested.

Marcus stumbles across a series of bushes, one of which seems to be meowing at him. Inside is a strange wooden forest-sprite that we identify as a Leshy. The Leshy has a task for us: 'save a plant from goo.' I seem to remember seeing a little bonsai tree in a big puddle of goo earlier in the game. Maybe that's what the Leshy is referring to?

Darkness is starting to fall and with all the warnings about Mordavian nights perhaps its best if we head back to town. There's a quick stop-over at the cemetery where we do a bit of sight-seeing, then back to the town gates for the end of this video.

Next time, we'll meet another Paladin. Except he's... a... g.g.g.g.g. ghost!
