Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Let's Play Quest for Glory. Thanks to Piotyr for keeping this going!

Part of the Squid Stone opens to reveal a small compartment. You reach in to find a scroll covered with mysterious runes. The symbol of the Senses at the top is the only part you can make out.
You also retrieve the Dark One Sign, which pulls loose from the stone with a slurping, sucking sensation. The hole in the stone closes as you remove the Sign.

+2 Get Nikolai's hat (213)
You are flying in the very source of all magic. You are filled with power and the knowledge of how to use it.
You create flowers dancing around you. Trees fill their branches with magical fruit as you touch them. You dance in a circle and the very ground itself radiates peace and harmony.
You sing the message of your heart, and the magic echoes around you a song of love and happiness. Then you realize that it is not you doing this. It was someone else back in time.
Darkness surrounds you, eats at you. The voice calls out again, and you are afraid. It calls from the center of the Darkness, drawing you nearer and nearer. The Darkness sucks at you, pulling you towards the voice as it flays all warmth and life from you. You scream.

As usual, I will add the voices later. Possibly tomorrow, if I have time.
enticing children into his vancapturing the Will O' Wisps. Why isn't he asking for help finding his lost puppy? Or telling them their mother is running late and he's supposed to pick them up and take them to her?More seriously, is talking to Nikolai and Anna the only way to get his hat? Because I don't remember doing that, but I certainly remember getting the hat.
Agreed. And the saddest moment of the game is one you think would be happy.
I've only beaten the game as a Paladin, so I can't remember if that's required to complete the game. Is it?
Yeah, that's the one required step to trigger the end-game events that I've been basically avoiding.
I recall <redacted> being seriously angry over that.
Okay, this is something I've never seen. Probably because I never bothered trying to beat the game as a Wizard (since all the bugs made it so difficult to play).
EDIT: I have a new solution, which I will use from this point forward. I will eventually go back and fix my old sets, but...56 of them may take a little while. This also means Josh and Syphyre's sets may soon have broken images. Unless I just post so many more pics than them in sets that their imageshack accounts are under 500 images.
EDIT: Thank you for the suggestion, @SkutSkut ! I will post the new set some time tonight using the new hosting service, so I hope everything works out.
Set Music - Baba Yaga
You wake in a cold sweat. You remember every detail of the nightmare as though it had really happened to you.
They worshipped it in the Monastery, that much I know. The members of the monastery stayed mostly within its walls, but the townspeople feared them. They said the followers were all like madmen, concealed in robes and speaking in whispers.
That is all I know of the matter. I am sorry if I cannot help you more. Be careful, and good luck.

Well, now you're here and all trapped like a fly in a web. Just looking at you reminds me of lunch.
Oh, pooh. Now that you mention it, I'd really like some Elderbury Pie, with or without Eye Scream.
So, Mr. Tender-Morsel, I'll give you another chance. Bring me some fresh Elderbury Pie, and I won't have you for dessert. Agreed?

I don't know much about it. I don't get around much, after all. I think it's a mean green to the northwest. Careful around it -- if you destroy it, you'll make Baba Yaga very displeased with you. On the other hand, it could destroy you.

Bah, and I even fixed it in the one set, but forgot to change the default. Fixed now.
:^:
And, awesome job with the thread. I check it regularly.

Welp. I figure about 5% are non LP related, and the rest are LP. Out of those, I figure about 50% are actually used in the LP (I tended to upload EVERYTHING and then transcribe text from the screenshots.) But hrm.
I have images ready for the next set (it was going to all be set 57, but I ran out of character space, so the second half of the day will be day 58). I'm also going to be converting all my images (and then sets) over to imgur, starting from QFG4 and going backwards. I probably won't get all 56 complete before the end of February, but at least the more recent ones will still work.

The events you face now obviously began in the dark past. Let us learn now of the more recent ones.
Whatever or whoever binds him now cannot contain him forever. He will seek his revenge, and you will need to be wary. You will face him again in a struggle to the death.

Many sad things in Mordavia. Many sad things need your help. Gnome need help. Nikolai need help. Yuri and Bella need help. Olga and Boris need help. Others need help. Even Domovoi need help. You help some, maybe you help others.
To-Do:
- Townsfolk:
-- Domovoi
--- Wants me to rehydrate his friend at the "bad place", likely Monastery
- MISC
-- Find a way to get Erana's staff in front of town
--- Domovoi says to ask the gypsies
What is it? Where is he?
He's sleeping. Most people do that at night, remember?
This is ridiculous. Stop playing with him. We can easily bind him to our Will.
You are not to go near him, do you understand? I am not 'playing' with him. It is very important for me to establish a good relationship with him. Besides, he will need the help of others to accomplish our mission. The more friends he makes, the better.
Friends, bah. You told me yourself that the townspeople distrust him. How is he supposed to make these friends?
You forget, he is a Hero. I am certain he will do something to gain their trust.
You are a fool if you still think you can use him without controlling him first. You know what happened to me.
You are the fool! I know how to manipulate men. After all, even YOU must now do as I say.

Since all of that doesn't matter to people who are keeping up, though, I'm going to take a break from fixing old sets to put together a new one now.

This I must first do -- the sacrifice of life for one of love.
I heard it speak in the dream. It told me how it protected the town and of its Destiny Spell. When the staff spoke no more, I saw a beautiful crystal floating in the air. The staff touched it and the crystal shattered. That was all I saw.
The dead would rise alive and well, though the one who gave his life for the dead would never know. That would be a true sacrifice, done with foreknowledge and with love. The staff still stands in the town, so I do not think anyone has been willing to make such a sacrifice.

Please don't mention me to the gatekeeper. I'll get in trouble if anyone finds out I sneak out of the castle. They think it's too dangerous outside the gate, but I need to get out to see you again. Good bye!
You are filled with the warmth of friendship. You share your hopes, your dreams, all the best moments of your life, knowing that here is someone who understands and cares about you. You reach out to touch your friend, but there is no one there.
