He wants me to brief you on MUMMIES? I'm not a mummy expert! But I can repeat what I've read in books, I guess.

Mummies are nasty undead that are supposedly not being created anymore... although I'm pretty sure that's untrue. Anyway, the mummies you'll be facing are very old, and they have old diseases that your body has few protections against. So try not to inhale near them.

Their organs are removed during the creation process, so don't bother trying to poison them, bludgeon them, or make them bleed. Their thick bandages give them protection against blades and arrows, too. Fire is the classic weapon of choice, but acid and lightning also work well, and I've heard they're even susceptible to psychic blasts, which is unusual for undead.

That's about all I can remember about mummies, aside from historical info. Good luck.

Gates are timed so you may have to run through the buttons more than once

Door 1 (2 gates): Press the button on the N wall, then 2nd button is in the open store room directly across. After going thru the open gates, a button there opens them again if you need it

Door 2 (3 gates) – facing N:

o Button 6 on the left opens 1 gate

o Button 2 on the right opens 1 gate

o Button 7 on the right opens 1 gate

Door 3 (4 gates):

o After getting the 4th rune, head north to get the 5th rune and deal with Arbulekh (northern most room) if desired

o Run back to the E/W hallway facing W.

o Facing W there is an open arch with a crypt leaning on the left and a skull button on the right. Ignore that button – go past the open arch, turn around (facing E) and use that button

o In the main part of the adjacent room, press the S button.

o Turn back to the W and run around to the open arch, using the left button opens 1 gate

o Straight ahead to door 3 and the right button opens remaining gates (sometimes it may just open 1 gate – have to hit all these buttons quickly)

• Mummy Wrapper, Mummy Rotter, Snow Leaper, Ghoul, Ghoul Smasher, Explosion Trap

• Skull Buttons with flame results are not the right ones and will reset the doors

• Buttons with glowy results are correct

• The gates will close after a short time in this cache

• The buttons also seem to be timed, may have to run through a sequence more than once

• Once you pass through a gate, all doors have a button to open it again on the back

• If someone else is in the cache, it may be best to log and wait until you’re alone

Door 1 (W and S from entry) – four buttons:

• R top, R bottom, L bottom, L top

• Get the 1st rune

Door 2 (E from first door) – four buttons to open this door. The buttons for this door seem to be timed:

• From the 1st rune - the first button is dead ahead by an open gate (should be facing east)

• Second button is by the 2nd rune

• Third button is left of door 2 (should be facing north) (you can ignore the right button by door 2)

• For the last button run west from door 2, then south – button is by the open arch

• Get the xedrite and recall beginnings

Door 3 (full W from entry) – opens in this order (can ignore all the E and W buttons):

• Right button on the S wall

• Right button on the N wall

• Left button on the N wall

• Left button on the S wall

• Get the xedrite and recall beginnings

Door 4 (N from entry) – only 1 button to deal with - opens easily without any sequencing or button combos.Ignore the skull buttons in this room.

• Visage of Demise, Mummy Rotter, Mummy Wrapper, Ancient Hook Beast, Sand Dog

Door 1 (2 doors) – this sequence opens both doors:

• top right button

• bottom right

• top left

• bottom left

Door 2 (two doors separated by a short hallway). You’ll need to open the first door and probably stay in the hallway until it closes. You can open again from the 3 buttons on the other side (top-middle-bottom). Then do the door at the end of the hallway

• First door –

o red button on right of door

o N red button

o S white button

o bottom left button by the doors

o top left

o wait in the hallway until the door closes (or close the door – 1st button), then open it again and do the sequence for the 2nd door

• Second door: You can lure mobs into the hallway if necessary so you can stay in the hallway. With the first door open –

o In the room - Red button right of the door that just opened

o N red button in the room and run back through the still open doors

o Lone red button in the hallway to open the 2nd door 2.

• Red button by door 3

• Red button by door 4 (opens 1 door)

• Green E in previous room

• On entry both doors are shut

• Go north to use lever 1 to open that gate – recall beginnings

• Once both gates are open, they remain open unless you pull their levers again.

• Smallish Scorpion, Sand Dog, Mama Scorpion

• Three numbered gates (9,15,24)

• The levers should show 0 on entry to the dungeon.

• Best to do gate 15 last since that route has most of what you want to finish.

• As you open a gate, others close; but none of the gates are timed

Door 9: pull to equal 9 (from left to right - 4th lever, 3rd, 2nd, 1st will equal 9)

Door 24: 9 should still be showing – pull the 5th lever, then 2nd lever (24 should be showing now) – get the rune and recall beginnings

He assigned you again? Good. I've got bad news and worse news. The bad news is those spiders you found are definitely tornado spiders, and the infestation is already too deep. There's no hope of really being rid of them, but maybe we can keep them contained to a small part of the desert.

Now here's the worse news: tornado spiders are the weak ones. When an infestation of tornado spiders gets large enough, they somehow spontaneously start laying eggs for the REAL dangerous spiders, the Hurricane Spiders. And those eggs have been spotted in the hole you're headed to.

Go in and burn those eggs. And I mean that literally: you should be prepared to burn them! They're very difficult to damage with weapons, and they regenerate health like crazy unless they're on fire. If you can't manage any other type of fire, I noticed the fairy has some Trollbane Oil for sale in the 'commissary'. That will at least keep them from regenerating! Good luck.

• Tornado, Tornado Spider, Big Egg, Wind-Addled Archer, Nature Elemental

Remember how I told you that 'tornado spiders' are the weak ones, and it was very important to destroy all the giant eggs before they became much bigger problems? Well, we found another cave where an egg already hatched, and we've got a much bigger problem. But it's still an adolescent, so there might be time left to kill it!

It will have extreme regeneration, just as it did in the egg: you'll need to light it on fire to prevent that. Fortunately, weapons work better than they do on the egg, but there's an extra complication: this spider has a very venomous bite!

Kella was sent in before you and nearly died. Don't underestimate this one.
