Description

The fortress stands almost on the main road, when following the road northwards (from Alcazar's Last Bastion ). However, to get inside you need to go to the second part of the complex. First, climb up the stairs and meet with the hostile Bandit, that will immediately attack you. Go to the place where he was standing and you will notice a small passage/bridge to the second part of the building and more stairs. Go or jump down and you will be by the entrance to the Fortress. The fortress is pretty rich in general loot and cluster. The Bandits might be a bit difficult to face as they use invisibility or chameleon scrolls/potions. When you enter the fortress, you will notice a small ledge (to the right) with some loot (Topaz and Soul Gem) on it. You can cause the loot to fall down with an arrow. On the second level of the fortress there is one Gate (Average) that leads to a small storage room with two rats.

Notes/Tips

Note

• The Fortress of Mandorn doesn't seem to be quest-related, but does hold an interesting story. The bandits around the fortress have Chameleon up to a certain degree, and inside the player finds out why and how. When exploring through the fortress, you will find a Note, which roughly translated says:"Kurutras has proven us a good service with this spell. With this invisibility-ability it will be possible, to steal a lot more, because it will scare the people! Not even the Erothin soldiers are armed for us!" Going deeper, the player runs into the mage Kurutras himself.
• In the kitchen you can roast some of the ingredients, as there is Fire (T).
