Yew

--== TIPS ==--

-How do I get to Yew?
After you arrive from you're first "forced" visit in Terfin. Speak to lord British in Britain. He will remove a force field blocking the entrance to a cave. Take the road that leads southwest from Britain. You will come to a fork, take the road that is not marked. There is a sign tha says Paws and Britain here. This will take you North and through a valley. There is a cave that goes through the mountains... Go to the end of the cave, head west (look at your commpass and your map) to end of road, then follow the road North to Yew (1).

-Vasagralem's House
His house (7) is only accessable from a lift. When you visit him, take the lift back; don't drop off his house, otherwise, the lift stops working *bug*.

"When I got to Yew and it came time to talk with Vasagralem I realized I had left the gargolye egg back in the Mage's room in Britain. Figured I would have to go all the way back and get it, but things proceeded along as if I had the egg with me. When I went to the Mage's room again later on in my travels the egg was still there. Wonder if this happens for other items in the game."

-Xilepuc

-I cannot find a being who is pure and knows none of the petty prejudices that affect men.
Follow the path from Yew that leads to wrong... follow the signs. Eventually, in the snowy peaks area (5) with lots of ice crystals, you will find a green Banner of Justice hanging on a pole. There is a trail beind it leading up the mountain. You will meet a blue vulture.

He will ask you 3 questions.
Q: About the wolf, A: No.
Q: About the brother, A: No
Q: About destroying an item, A: No

After getting the quill, head back to the Shrine of Justice in Yew. (If you have the Glyph of Justice). Restore the shrine. 'beh'

-Where is the Shrine of Justice? (4)
...in Yew, between the two bridges, head North through the forest. You will pass a circle of standing stones, keep going North. Soon, you will see a path leading to the Shrine. Use your map, ctrl-m.

-Cave, Wizards Eye
There's a small patch of beach below the mountains, theres a cave (8) facing the road. Inside is a scroll of Wizards Eye.

-2-handed Claymore
There is a cave (9) to the Northeast of Mathis Mines... all the way at the end of that western road. There are 2 face statues here at the entrance. You will find a 2 handed Claymore inside the cave.

-Where is Lord British?

"Both LB and the Garg have dissapeared from the castle. I returned from Moonglow and have been told by 2 people to talk to LB about getting a shortcut to Yew. He's nowhere to be found."

Remember the teleporter in the King's bedroom? Step on that, then go out to the balcony. The garg is in Yew.

-Problems Picking up Sigils.

"If you end up with an item that you can't pick up because the mouse cursor wont recognize the item (such as picking up a sigil like the quill of justice from the shrine) then: Place another item such as a potion bottle near the object. You need then cast fireballs or use gust to move the bottle next to the needed object. Every few casts try to get the item. Once the potion bottle touches or moves the item in question it should be obtainable."

-Sengir Dragon

-Mushroom

"If you travel a little up the coast (6) from the AS + PS easter egg near Yew, you'll come upon a magic mushroom of tripping. When you click on the mushroom, the Avatar starts to groggily sway back and forth while mushrooms and sparkles appear all around him. If you have trouble finding the place, fly on top of one of the plateaus on the other side of the river, where you will find a telescope that looks down on it. Coordinates: 24 degrees 12' N, 10 degrees 33' W"

-Joe Jones

-Shamino (3)
Shamino will speak to you again, North of Yew across the bridge, he is on the hill to your Right. He wants you to free him. See misc section.

-Bolt of Flame Scroll
At the Shrine of Justice (4)... Head north up the path.. You will see two Statue Faces, Use your linear magic to light the campfires in the mouths. The Scroll will appear.

..before I realized what I was doing, I lit the two fires in the statues, but I nothing happened: I was standing on the pentagram. Might want to remind people to avoid that mistake.

-Andrew

-To get to Wrong:
In the part of town with the bowyer and the farm, go NE from the farm. Cross the bridge. Watch for roadsigns that you can't really read unless you click on them. Follow them. (there aren't arrows on them, just go the direction the sign points to, or in other words, which ever way the sign hangs from the post)

-Getting into Wrong
Once you reach the long bridge, don't go up to the entrance. Just at the end of the bridge is a stairway down. Talk to Vasagralem (gargoyle) Get in the boat. Ride it to it's end at an island. Jump into water and look under that island for a cave entrance. If you get caught and thrown in a cell: Don't fret. There's a secret door in your cell. Follow it around and when you get back to the corridor's you'll be near a room with a chest. Your stuff is in there.

-Where is the courthouse?
The courthouse (2)is in the Northern part of Yew by the farmers, look for a pillar and a path leading into the mountain grown w/ vegetation surrounding it.

-The Book of Justice.
Put the fallen books back on the shelves, a wall will disappear and the book will be there. There are plaques on the floor and wall that can give you a clue.

-The Egg
Vasagralem will take the egg after the trial. Meet him at his tree house.

-I cannot find Vasagralem after the trial.
After Raven is sentenced for genocide, head South to a large tree with a lift. (I think it's a bit East of the farmer.) Take the lift up. One of the side lifts should take you to his tree house (7).

-Mathis Mines
There is an abandoned mine at the end of the West coast trail leading North. You will find a book written by Lila, its a letter to her son Mathis. Its about the goblins raiding the camp. There are two bottles of serpentwyne in a chest in the shack. You will find a Hammer, a chain chest and some black pearl at the top of the wooden bridge. At the mineshaft entrance, where the tunnel is caved in, look up at the Bulls Skull on the right, there is a treasure map wedged in between two boards. It points to a spot on the Southeastern piece of land in Trinsic near Virgil's house.
