The minotaur I ran into was outside at some mining site. Had a couple lizard dudes there too.
To get into the city I had to go thr long way because the fucking escort you need to get in yeeted himself off a cliff into the brine.
Found a real cool cave that lead to a harpy nest in my adventures. It was up a cliff with a real narrow trail, and of course I had to find a way down at night.
Lol did he die, like permanently?
He gives you some letter/seal thing that grants you access, how did you get in the city without it?
I had a crazy sequence of events that surrounded him, that really made me fall in love witg this game.
I got lost when I was with him and his group, we got separated. It turned to nighttime and I was fighting some zombie ghosts or something, frantically looking for a camp fire.
Finally finding a camp site, to my horror, my camp kit was gone, turned out it had gotten destoyed from a previous attack, didn't even know that could happen.
I was really low on health and lost a pawn in another skirmish, think it died in the water. Things were getting perilous now, but one of the pawns I hired directed me to a rift stone, that was so cool.
I was able to bring in two fresh/better pawns and somehow survived the night. I wound up going all the way back to the first area you get to after that flying thing you're on gets shot.
All rested up and new camp gear, I eventually got to that gate our guide gets you through (vouches for you with some guard) just before you fight the troll and have to smash rocks to cause a flood, but I was on the wrong side of it. He just magically appeared acting like we didn't just spend two nights apart lol
This often feels like a 2007 title disguised as a shiny 2024 game, I love it so much!
