Deleted Scene: Ugarte Subplot

We start with Marcus entering the invitingly open home of Zayishah and her servant Mayzun. Zayishah is the scantily-clad princess of Raseir who wants to escape the male oppression of her homeland so she doesn't have to wear an uncomfortable veil - although considering her current outfit, she might want to consider fewer flossy thongs as well.
So we give her our spare clothes and our Visa, and then wander around the city for a while. Note: there is a good six minutes of aimless wandering after Zayishah in the first video, so if you want to skip it, don't worry - you'll miss nothing.
That night in the Blue Parrot it's off to bed before waking up to a strangely silent Inn. Even the normally jovial Ferrari is ignoring us. Why? Well, we step outside and get arrested. It's off to Raseir's dungeon, where we meet a skinny Katta insurgent, err, resistance fighter. The insurgency, err Underground, is strong it seems - they're planning to attack.
A few door bashes later and we're back on the streets but are stopped (literally) by this guy Ad Avis who says he's our bestest friend ever even if he is dressed like a beggar. Enthralling. He whisks us away to the 'Forbidden City,' either a ruin or a housing development in Dubai - take your pick. He's too stupid to figure out how to get in but it's pretty obvious to us.
Once we're inside it's time to pass some trials - water, air, fire and earth to be exact. And then a few scenes from Aladdin and we're staring at the statue of Iblis. And Ad Avis reveals his true nature.
How does it end? Well, we make our way out of the cave and video ends with us in front of the palace leading the Underground's assault. We get three wishes. Watch the videos and see the rest - and I'll see you next update as we complete Quest for Glory II: Trial by Fire and head off to Fricana to stop a war.

Back at the old Katta's Tail we wipe the sleep from our eyes to find out that yet another elemental is raging around - this time the Water Elemental, Shapeir's final doom. So it's off to Aziza's to learn about how to defeat the Watery Tart, which isn't really much of a stretch - we've got the opposing element sitting in a bellows anyway.
For being a final doom it doesn't take long to put the Water Elemental away in a waterskin - although you can enjoy the fine death our Hero makes as he gets to close and receives the kiss of his life.
Back to the Katta's Tail again where we're still sleeping to pass time - until the next day, when we get our last 'note' with 'orders.' Time to find out what all this business is.
Turns out it was the EOF, who have been watching Marcus and think he's member material. Well, they're right: we are just that bad-assed. But we're better than that because we refuse to kill a helpless opponent, which earns us their ire but they still make us a Brother Saurus. Gotta take what you can get, I suppose.
Next morning, after getting hammered with our new friends, we roll out of bed and go practice with a new opponent in the guild - Rakeesh. He gives us some helpful pointers about how to fight with Honor. Then it's on to Aziza's, where we learn the truth behind an old loyal (if slightly cowardly) friend. It turns out the Emir of Raseir has been in Shapeir this entire time.
That night Omar raps one last time and gives us our last reward, and we're off to Raseir in a long and entertaining cut-scene which I step out of as narrator so you can enjoy it in all its various degrees of hilarity.
Raseir itself is a shithole. We meet Wilmer and Signor Ferrari, who seems to kind of be the de facto leader of the underworld - and a very dead parrot, who is leader of nothing in particular. We then spend way too much time wandering around Raseir getting a feel for the city
Next time: we're going to meet a very nice girl and make a very special new friend!

Quest for Glory Epic Let's Play Parts Twenty-Eight, Twenty-Nine and Thirty: Running to Rasier, The Big Score and The Air in There

The first video has Marcus killing the last wandering monster we need to round off our points, and the explanation for getting to Raseir early - along with the fruits of our initial failed attempt and a video of the second, successful attempt. Aside from a silly pun and what I could right-click-look at for the few seconds we were inside the city, it's more of a curiosity than anything - but it can be done.
The second video picks up at the end of the first, with Marcus carrying around a huge amount of loot - both money and monster pieces. Of which we can only sell one, it turns out. Bummer.
Then we hit up the Astrologer, whom we kind of forgot about until now - who gives us an interesting fortune (that also happens to contain a very important clue about the final puzzle in the game.)
As if we didn't have enough money, Rakeesh has a reward for us from the Sultan himself - and the poet Omar is freestyling in the fountain plaza, after which we find his purse on the ground - we'll have to give that back to him the next time we see him.
The final video picks up right away, with word that the Air Elemental is wreaking havoc in the Palace Plaza. A little prep work is necessary before we take him on, so it's off to Aziza's for a quick Air Elemental lesson, then Keapon's for a necessary ingredient (and a little item for later.) Next on our list is Issur, who after some communications problems surrenders his bellows to us. After all, we did beat him in arm wrestling.
Mr. Air himself isn't too bad - the challenge is more in getting him to stay still, as you might expect from a tornado with sinister eyes. All in a day's work for a hero, eh?
