Ultima Underworld 2 engame (void) help needed
Michael Lewchuk
Hi netters. I need a bit of help. I'm in world 8, the Void in
Ultima Underworld 2 and I can't get the final stone. Spoiler warning.
I'm stuck in the Yellow World of the Void. All of the yellow moongates in
the Maze teleport me back to the Maze or to a yellow path area which
teleports me back to the maze. There's only one other moongate, a brown
one, which is way down deep in the ground and so is totally inaccessable.
I'd like a direct spoiler: what is the quickest way to get to the Shrine
of Spirituality and get that last moonstone? I have the horn, the air
elemental successfully bound, and have completed Red, Blue, and Purple worlds.
I tried the basic ways to get to the Shrine: Fly, Portal, Gate Travel, and
a few others, none of which worked.
Also, where is the Guardian's "choke point" in the Void? I've been tapping
that purple rod here and there with no success. It doesn't seem to be in
the Red Hells.

I recall this is a bug. I think Origin's bugfix doesn't fix it, but you
could try it, if you haven't:

From "WALK THROUGH for ULTIMA UNDERWORLD 2 : Labyrinth of Worlds" V.1.4
by Mitch Aigner(with my notes):
---
SHRINE: For some reason, you are not put in the Shrine of Spirituality,
but are teleported to the base of the tower that it lies on top
of. There are several ways to get in (and out):
(Note: you should first portal yourself in the area, which is the
base of the tower. You can done that somehow like this:
1) Re-enter Ethereal void
2) Turn over(right away)
3) "Levitate" or "Fly" and you should see an ankh. Now, cast "portal".
Now you should be there)
A) Use "Levitate" of "Fly" to get to the top of the tower. Lower
yourself until you are standing at floor level of the Shrine.
Cast "Portal" to get through the bars (and back out).
B) "Levitate" or "Fly" to the top of the tower. Throw one of the
Moonstones through the bars.
(Note: this can take several tries, try from different angles)
Throw the other Moonstone on the ground at the base. Cast "Gate Travel"
on this Moonstone to get in (and "Gate Travel" again on the moonstone at
the Shrine to get out,.. after remembering to pick it up).
C) Use the "dream" plants just before bedtime. In your dream, pick up
the blackrock gem at the Shrine and throw it through the bars. It will
be there when you arrive later. To disable the Shrine with Altara's
wand, you must merely get close to the bars.

We really messed up this one when we played. Note: the place which
is "the floor level of the Shrine" should have two gazers. If you
can't figure this out, ASK.
>Also, where is the Guardian's "choke point" in the Void?
Try it in "the floor level of the Shrine". If that doesn't work, try
it in the Shrine(that is, the place where the blackrock gem is).
