Next, you have to save the healer from the bandits. The Healer’s House is past Specter’s Hideout, the cave you had to investigate in the Quest “Secrets Hidden in the Dark”.

You will know that you are at the right place when people are fleeing towards you, with the houses burning in the background. Talk to the people in front of the healer’s house.

A log is blocking the house’s entrance. Use “Nature’s Grasp”, an ability in the green area of the skill tree, to remove the log. Throw it aside and enter the house. Marten, the person who needs rescuing, is in the corner of the house. Just walk through the fire, pick him up, and carry him outside.

Follow the road to the east and head south at the fork towards the Hernand Highlands. I went through an area with hovering vases, which was a weird experience. If you do the same, be aware that there are aggressive hogs there, too.

It all began in the ’80s when I was just 7 years old. Starting with basic arcade games, I soon delved into titles like Loom and Monkey Island by Lucasarts. Throughout the years, as I indulged in more and more games, I consistently sought clear guides to swiftly navigate my gameplay. Now, it’s my turn to contribute back to the community.
