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.
