Adventure Walkthrough
If you're having a hard time and need to know EXACTLY what to do, this is the page for you. I recommend trying to figure it out yourself but if you've truly hit a roadblock then by all means, read below.
The following walkthrough skips all optional content like notes with lore and story on them and all unnecessary conversation with characters in the game. Performing these actions in this order completes the game.
There are two endings possible. If you want the good ending, you must complete everything below in order. If you want the bad ending, skip to the section labeled Bad Ending Walkthrough.
Look at the hole and take the stone inside.
Look at the bridge to see the rod. Throw the stone (throw stone), which distracts the pirahna. Take the rod.
Look at the wood and take the nail you see.
Greet the woman and tell her you're not a threat ("no"). Then ask her about the cure ("ask Rhode about cure"). She mentions ingredients. Ask her about them. Ask Rhode about puffball too. Then ask her about scissors. Tell her "yes", you want them. Take the scissors.
Use the scissors on a puffball. (cure ingredient 1)
Take a mosquito egg. (cure ingredient 2)
Look at the boat to see the sledgehammer. Take the sledgehammer.
There's a device on the wall that opens the way to the east but it's missing a handle. Use the rod on the device. Then use the device itself. Take the rod once the way is open.
The south wall is weak. Use the sledgehammer on the wall.
Open the chest. Take the flashlight.
Use the flashlight to turn it on. Open the hatch. Go down.
Take the rune. It's the etavoner rune. You need to dunk it in the forest well to activate it.
Look at the poster. Look at the vials. Take the potion.
Put the etavoner rune in the pail. Drop the pail. Use the crank. Take the rune. With your flashlight on, go east.
Look at the hornet. Look at the sac. Take the sac. This allows entry into the hornet hive later.
Incant etavoner to repair the bridge. Go south to the lighthouse and enter it.
Look at the bed, then the pillow. Take the key. Go up.
Use the key on the padlock. Go up.
Give the potion to the woman (her name's Ionyne). She drinks the potion and gives you back an empty bottle. She makes you a bird friend.
Now that you're a bird friend, take the rainbow shell from the nest. (cure ingredient 3)
Return to the old well. You should still have the pail full of water sitting on the side of the well. Use the empty bottle on the water to take some.
Use the rod on the device. Use the device. You can leave the rod. You won't need it again. Go down.
Incant etavoner to repair the bridge. Go south.
Put the water bottle onto the scale. The passage west opens.
Look at the plants. Take the white-leafed plant. (cure ingredient 4)
Look at the pouch. Take the rune. To activate the rune, you must give it to the hornet queen. Return all the way to the hornet's nest area in the forest.
Go down. You have the pheromone sac from the Cave of Bones so you'll be ignored.
Give the eltnamsid rune to the queen.
Incant eltnamsid to destroy the wall. Go through.
Take the silver box.
Give the silver box to Rhode. Take the map. Return all the way to the mountain labyrinth.
Exit to the east or west in either the Labyrinth, South Gate; Labyrinth, Central Plaza; or Labyrinth, North Gate.
You should look at your map. It will tell you which direction to go. Look at it, then go that direction ONCE. Repeat 10 total times. If you're lazy and don't want to do that, just follow these directions: n, e, n, s, s, w, s, e, n, e. If you do it wrong, you will be returned to one of the central Labyrinth rooms.
Take the rune. To activate the lievnu rune, you must use it on the lighthouse's light. When you take the rune, Rhode will also finish her study of the silver box.
Use the lievnu rune on the light.
This is your last visit to Rhode. She gives you back the silver box. Incant etavoner to fix it. Incant lievnu to unlock its power. Give rhode the rainbow shell, the puffball, the mosquito egg, and the root. She will give you the cure.
Give the man the nail. This is Arden. Head west into his cabin.
Give the cure to Edra (his sleeping brother). He wakes up and you learn to incant rhocna.
Incant rhocna to freeze the mushrooms in place. You need to touch the colored mushrooms in order. Each color represents a character in the game. You learn the order by finding Ophelia's journal in Long Abandoned Campsite in the tent. You can give the journal to Rhode to repair it and make it easier to read.
The character order is Edra (blue eyes), Mine! (Ophelia's yellow hair), Merek (red cape), Rhode (purple light and eyes), Arden (orange shirt), Meredith (green sneakers), Stanley (indigo suit). Touch the mushrooms in this order: blue, yellow, red, purple, orange, green, indigo.
You then experience memories of each character in the game and learn to incant hsinimid, partne, and etalosi.
Incant lievnu to reveal It. Incant hsinimid to weaken it. Open the silver box. Incant partne to trap it in the box. Then incant etalosi.
