[Coco] Paladin's Legacy

[Allan Chaney]

Fred,

Don't forget to talk to the Queen in the castle.  She levels you up based
upon your newly acquired experience and with new levels comes a higher HP
maximum.  Then go back to the Wood nymph and she will heal you to your max
hp.

That will help a lot in the mines.  Also keep an eye out for black boxes in
the mines.  You'll find strength and dexterity in those black boxes along
with other magic items.

Allan

Allan,

Thanks again for the help! Last night I played it again for the first time
in a few years and your tips definitely helped. The major problem was I had
never figured out that you could be changed back to Good by paying 10 gold
to Sister Shara in the Cathedral. Armed with that knowledge, I made a lot of
progress last night. I was kicking butt until I entered the mine on the far
side of the mountains looking for the Elven Torch. The creatures down there
are powerful! I didn't get far before they wasted me.  I'll try earning more
experience, get my experience level higher, and try again. I'll let you know
*when* I get stuck again :-)

Thanks,
