                                 THE ENCHANTER

              Welcome to the wonderful world of Enchanter! Before we
         start, a few words about the game: first, it helps to make a
         map as you go along. You will not be visiting all the
         locations, and if you make a misstep somewhere, having a map
         will save you a lot of time and trouble. Second, you will
         need to have food and water with you most of the time. Make
         sure you eat and drink when the program warns you that you
         are hungry and thirsty. Also, keep in mind that, if your
         water supply runs out, you can always get more, but once the
         bread is gone, you won't be able to obtain more food. So,
         don't go too far astray, or you might starve to death!
         Finally, remember to save the game every once in awhile,
         especially before doing anything dangerous!

              Ok, the game begins with your being summoned by Belboz
         to a council of the Circle of Enchanters. You are told that
         you must put an end to Krill, a nasty and powerful Wizard,
         after which, with your trusty spell book, you are sent into
         the game proper, where you find yourself at a fork in the
         road. From there, go NE, then North, and you will be in a
         shack. Get the jug and the lantern, then open the oven door
         and get the bread. You have food, now you need some water.

              Go South from the shack, then NE, SE, NE to the Shady
         Brook. Here you fill your jug with water. Head SW SE to
         another fork in the road, and from there SW SW to a deserted
         village. Well, almost deserted. There's one place that seems
         to be inhabited. You head South, and run into an old crone
         who hands you a spell scroll, and pushes you back out the
         door again. This scroll has the REZROV spell. Use the GNUSTO
         spell to write it into your spell book, then learn the spell.
         Now, go NE NE, and you're back at the fork. From there, head
         along East until you come to the outer gate of Krill's
         castle. REZROV the gate, then continue East to the inside
         gate.

              Learn the FROTZ, NITFOL, and REZROV spells. FROTZ the
         lantern, then go North twice to the tower, and then Up the
         tower steps to the Jewel Room. There is an egg here, with all
         manner of little switches and doodads on it. You could
         actually open the egg by figuring out the proper sequence,
         but that isn't necessary. REZROV the egg, and it will open,
         to reveal a shredded scroll. There is no way to avoid this,
         even if you opened it by hand. Don't worry about that,
         however. Just get the scroll, and drop the egg. Learn REZROV
         once more (very handy, that spell!), then go Down to the
         Tower, and from there due East through the four Mirror Rooms
         to the North Gate. REZROV the gate.

              Now move out North through the gate to the Woods. Here
         you find another spell scroll. This is the KREBF spell, which
         will repair the shredded scroll. You will only need this
         spell once, so you don't really have to GNUSTO it. In any
         case, cast the KREBF spell on the shredded scroll, which will
         be restored and usable. The spell on this scroll is ZIFMIA.









         GNUSTO that one, then walk East to the Swamp. NITFOL the
         frogs, who will tell you how to get the CLEESH spell. GNUSTO
         that one, too.


              Now, return to the North Gate, and from there go back
         West through the

         Mirror Rooms to the Tower, and then from there due South
         until you come to the SouthWest Tower. Go East to the South
         Hall, then South to dungeon. Open the cell door and enter the
         cell. Examine the walls. Aha! A loose block! Move the block,
         and you will be able to move East into a secret room. There
         is another spell scroll here, the EXEX spell. Get the scroll
         and GNUSTO the spell. You will also find a silver spoon here,
         but that item is just "window dressing"; it has no useful
         purpose in the game, you should leave it behind. Now go back
         West, then South and Up to the South Hall again.
              Drop everything you have, and go East into the Gallery.
         In the dark, you will see that one portrait is lit up. Move
         that, and you will find a black candle and a black scroll.
         The scroll holds the OZMOO spell. Get these items and return
         West. Pick up your supplies (you won't need the lantern if
         you take the candle), then GNUSTO the OZMOO spell. About now,
         you're probably feeling a bit tired. Go West to the Tower,
         and Up the stairs. Well, look at that! A comfy featherbed.
         Get into bed and drift off to sleep.

              While you sleep, you have a dream. The dream is an
         indication of the location of another scroll. When morning
         comes, get up, then examine the bedpost. Aha! A hidden
         switch! Press it, and a compartment will open up, revealing
         the VAXUM spell. Get that scroll and GNUSTO the spell. It
         will soon be time for you to get yourself killed (among other
         things), so learn the OZMOO, NITFOL, and EXEX spells.

              Go down the stairs, the head East until you come to the
         South Gate. Go South from there to the meadow, then SE to the
         Shore. Here you will see a giant turtle with a
         rainbow-colored shell. Cast NITFOL on the turtle, then tell
         him to follow you. Return to the South Gate and go East from
         there to the base of the SouthEast Tower. Go up the stairs,
         and you will be in the Engine Room, which is full of all
         sorts of dangerous and incomprehensible machinery. Cast EXEX
         spell on the turtle, then tell him to go SE and get the
         scroll.

              The speed spell will make him fast enough to dodge
         safely through that room into the Control Room, where the
         Kulcad spell scroll is. On his way back, he'll set off a
         trap, but his heavy shell will protect him. You couldn't have
         managed it, because you have no protection from the sharp
         spears. The turtle will give you the scroll, then return to
         the beach. The Kulcad spell is too powerful for you to
         GNUSTO, so you'll have to just hold on to the scroll until
         you need it. And now, it's time for you to die.










              Go down the stairs, then West to the Hall and North to
         the Closet. Pick up the Jeweled Box and continue North to the
         Courtyard. Don't bother trying REZROV on the Box; even that
         spell isn't powerful enough to open it. Just go East to the
         front of the temple, drop everything you have, then go East
         once more. You will be captured and put in a cell to await a
         sacrificial ceremony, at which you will be the guest of
         honor.


              Now, OZMOO yourself, and Wait. The creatures will soon
         come for you, and you will be offered up on an altar and a
         knife plunged into your heart. Because of the OZMOO spell,
         you won't really be dead. However, you now have the means of
         opening the Jeweled Box. Once you are on your feet again,
         step down from the altar, amd go East back to the courtyard.
         Cut the rope, then open the box and get the MELBOR scroll.
         Pick up the rest of your possesions, and GNUSTO the MELBOR
         spell.

              Now, learn MELBOR, VAXUM and ZIFMIA, then head West,
         West to the Inside Gate, and from there to the Mirror Rooms.
         Here you must wait until you see the Adventurer on the other
         side of the mirror. At that point, ZIFMIA Adventurer, and he
         will appear before you, a little bit upset. Since you have a
         move to spare here, MELBOR yourself, then VAXUM the
         Adventurer, who will now be very friendly towards you. He
         will also be looking at your inventory with covetous eyes.

              As soon as he's been VAXUM'd, head directly East until
         you come to the Guarded Room. Don't worry, your new friend
         will follow you along. Once at the door (and you should
         carefully read the description of it; it's really amusing),
         tell the Adventurer to open it. He will do so, and the
         illusions of monsters will disappear, revealing only a plain
         wooden door. Go North through the door into the Map Room.

              Here is one of those variable things in the game. There
         are several objects in this room, two of which, the map and
         the pencil, are crucial to your success. Sometimes, the
         Adventurer will pick up one or both of these items. You must
         get them back from him before he leaves, or you may never
         catch up to him again, in which case the game is lost. If the
         Adventurer picks up something you need, tell him to give it
         to you, and he will. In any case, you should drop the dagger
         now because you don't need it anymore. You also won't need
         the purple scroll with the FILFRE spell. Make sure you have
         the map and the pencil, then go back to the North Gate, and
         from there South to the Library.

              Examine the ashes on the floor, then the tracks in the
         ashes. These will lead you to a mousehole in the wall. Reach
         inside, and you will find the scroll with the GONDAR spell.
         GNUSTO that one. While you're poking about here, you might
         hear gutteral voices coming towards you. Don't worry; the
         MELBOR spell will keep you protected from any of the hairy
         creatures that might enter the room. There is also a dusty









         old book here that you might want to read, as it will help
         you to understand what you're doing next. From the Library,
         return to the South Hall, then go down into the dungeon, and
         down once more to the first Translucent Room. You will
         probably be tired now, so just go to sleep right where you
         are; nothing will hurt you. You only had to sleep in the bed
         to have the dream to find the VAXUM spell.


              When you wake up, eat and drink if necessary, then drop
         your spell book and the jug. Look at the map, and you will
         see some lettered points connected by lines. This is a magic
         map of the area where you are now. If you connect two
         adjacent points with the pencil, an opening will actually
         appear between those two rooms. Likewise, if you erase a line
         between two points, then you close off the opening between
         the two rooms. However, you can only use the eraser twice and
         the point twice before each becomes useless. Now that you
         know what you have, let's put it to some good use.

              You are standing at the moment at point B on the map.
         From there, move South, East, NE, SE, and you will be at
         point F. The point all by itself, P, is where the Unseen
         Terror currently resides, and you are about to free it. Draw
         a line from P to F. You will see the opening appear in the
         wall before your eyes, and then a very scared Belboz will
         appear briefly with a warning. Now, move SW twice (the first
         time you won't get anywhere) and you will be at point P,
         where the GUNCHO spell is.

              Now, erase the line from B to R, which will keep the
         Terror from escaping. Also erase the line from M to V, which
         traps him in the rooms again. Pick up the GUNCHO scroll, and
         make your way to point J. Draw a line from J to B, then walk
         West to B and get your spell book. Learn the CLEESH, GONDAR,
         and MELBOR spells. The GUNCHO spell is too strong to be
         written in your book, so you'll have to carry the scroll with
         you.

              Now, go Up twice to the South Hall. MELBOR yourself,
         then go West to the South Gate, and from there due North to
         the Junction. At that point, head East twice to the Winding
         Stairs. This is another powerful illusion; no matter how much
         you walk up or down, you will never get anywhere. KULCAD the
         stairs, and they will disappear, leaving you over a
         Bottomless Pit! Fortunately, the bannister turned into a
         vellum scroll containing the IZYUK spell. IZYUK yoursel, and
         fly East into (ta-da!) The Warlock's Tower!

              Here, at last, you come face-to-face with Krill himself.
         However, before you can take care of him, you will have to
         get rid of a couple of his friends. When the dragon attacks,
         GONDAR the dragon, and when the being attacks, CLEESH him.
         Now, you're ready for the main event. As Krill begins his
         chant, GUNCHO him. He is banished forever from this plane of
         existence, and you have become a member of the Circle Of
         Enchanters!!









              Of course, this is just the beginning; there will be
         other tasks awaiting you in the future......
