I have endcountered several problems during the game If anyone can help I
would truly appreciate your time.
1) How do I get past the moving doors in the Great Souther Tower, on the
first floor, mainly the one on the left as you enter?
2) How do I get the Chalice of Protection from the Northern Tower,
Apparently there is some word or phrase that you must type in to receive
the Chalice, the question is - What do You Seek?
3) There is a tent of a dead knight in the northern part of the Desert,
however I can't seen to remember the name of the of the person who told
me about the place, and in order to receive the goodies I have to enter
the name, what is the name?
4) How do I open the chests in the temple of bark? When I try, I get a
response that says the power of bark overwhelms my efforts.
5) How do I descend to level 5 of the dungeon on the isle of lost
souls? There is a series of levers, and when I try it asks me for
money, $1000, $10000, and so on. What do I do?
6) How do I enter Olympus? And how do I get a pass for Blackfang?
7) What is the answer for the riddle of the merchant of the elements
found on the skyroads, its something like - It travels between fire and
air, what is my cargo?

If anyone can help I would truly appreciate it, I am really anxious to
resume my adventure. Thanks a million
Tim

There really is no reason to get past them, but to get past them cast
Teleport or Etherealize.

When it says what do you seek, enter AIE.

If you are talking about Darkside of Xeen, the guy that sent you is
in Castle Kalindra, Second Floor.

You have to kill barkman first, in order to that, you have to feed
the skulls in the "branches" (Near the top, I think there are four of
them, 2 on each side). Feed them until they disapper, and on the
lower 4, feed them till you hear a beep. Then have everybody drink
from the fountions in the juice rooms. Then attack barkman.

Just Keep on paying him the money.

>6) How do I enter Olympus? And how do I get a pass for Blackfang?

First of all, there is no pass for Blackfang, and you get the pass
to Olympus from the Dragon Pharooh in the Great prymaid, in the
desert in Darkside of Xeen.

I don't know.
