For real! My pet theory is that Sly Hands pays for his drinks in the Crazed Heifer with secret passwords. ;)

LOL, so true. ;D

Haha I do love Knightmare :) but I do love to have a nitpick when the time comes.

Lord Fear is a force to be reckoned with, no two ways, but do you reckon he ever bothers to use the karzy or the shower when there is always a chance that some kid is about to pick up a spyglass XD The Sewers of Goth had to come from somewhere after all.

But I did enjoy watching Sumayya and her troupe. They were a good laugh to have around :) This season was a definitive improvement of the last one. And this quest and others show it well :) Season 5 is penultimatly my least favourite

Through spyglasses. Several times teams have obtained blocker passwords and causeway paths through spying on Lord Fear at the moment he has to tell one of his henchmen how to get past such an obstruction. There seem to be a lot of spyglasses lying about in the levels, so not beyond the bounds of possibility one or two of the powers that be characters have taken a peak.

Team 2 made competent progress. They gained a sub-quest to release Sidriss, who was "frozen" by Lord Fear.

First appearance in this series of Elita. :D Yay! She woz on fine form.
They made a very efficient crossing of the causeway, using Elita's clue.

Bought a summoning spell for Hordriss from Ah-Wok.
Hilarious that they thought the summoning spell was Marrefact, not Malefact, ;D ;D altho in fairness they sorted it out very quickly.
:idea: Surely if they had actually watched S3, 4 or 5, they really should have known that Hordriss was summoned as Malefact....

Gained the blocker password from Hordriss in thanks.
Talked Smirky into a free ride to level 2 before the bell sounded.

As so many teams obligingly fell off the causeways, it hardly mattered that his security was awful. ;D ;D

By my reckoning, Sumayya was the fifteenth dungeoneer to encounter Hordriss. I wonder if she ever watched Fifteen to One.
