Quest For Glory Epic Let's Play Parts 106 and 107: Marcus' First Fortune and Ogress With A Grudge

In Which Our Hero finds out about his future and learns just how badly he pissed off Baba Yaga.







Back in Magda's wagon, Marcus further questions the gypsies about their freewheeling lifestyle and shapeshifting abilities. Then he gives Magda some gold and initiates the fortune-telling, a very long cut scene that reveals several clues about what's going on (although in a somewhat less-than-helpful way.) This is basically the setup for the next three fortune-telling sessions, which are far more specific.

Next video, Marcus carouses with the gypsies and is given the opportunity to bust his best moves with a gypsy hottie, at Davy's insistence. He wakes up on the ground and hung over, but ready for action. Good thing to: because he goes south, gives Bonehead the hat, and comes face to face with an old friend.

It seems things have changed very little: Baba Yaga has Marcus dead to rights, but instead of killing him sends him on a quest for some....

Pie.

I guess we'll be able to add chef to Marcus' list of abilities.

Quest for Glory Epic Let's Play Part Seven: First Step to Becoming a Hero

Video With Subtitles



After killing that last Brigand we face a rather heroic case of ennui - what are we going to do today? We've crossed many of the smaller questlike items off the list already, so maybe we should accomplish something big. Something that will put a lot of money in our purse and boost our ego a bit.

Let's rescue the Baronet!

North to the Ogre cave, where his massive corpse has somehow mysteriously disappeared. Inside the cave is a massive bear, which is easily placated by speaking the universal tongue: food. After that it's a fight with the kobold that damn near didn't end well for us (I was going to save/restore if I died for our first ACTUAL DEATH but turns out I didn't have to.)

Then we rescue the baronet and it's on to meet the big man himself, who we grill for information and fills us in on the back story behind the curse on the valley, his missing daughter and Baba Yaga. Then it's up and at 'em, a little honest work and another round with the weapons master.

In the next part, we meet Baba Yaga herself!
