You don't no where the red berries are? That's a bit confusing because if you can see the owl, you should have seen the berries, too!?
... and btw. you'll reach a bit higher by using the sword, while  sitting on the horse ;)

I think you don't have
Spoiler
the red seeds yet. Try to remember who gave you the black seeds and what she told you about her sons. Then it should be easy go on to get the red berries (Tabata told you what to do).

Tabata, Romeo, thank you.
Spoiler
I had not thought to do anything else for the old woman.That's what I get for being selfish.

Another room, another dead end...

I'm at
Spoiler
the bottom of the cave with the sex scenes. I'm guessing that I have to remove a certain combination of sex scenes from the wall corresponding either to the ones in the room or the ones NOT corresponding to the ones in the room. Some have no parallel in the drawing and I've tried all combinations.

Any hints?

Shadow,
Spoiler
It's a strange puzzle. You have to think...flexibly and creatively about how the images correspond to what's happening. It's more straightforward than you think - keep to your first, simpler interpretation.
[close]

for another hint
Spoiler
you can definitely eliminate some of the images from your options.
[close]

for another
Spoiler
the animals are definitely out

Still no luck. I've tried 6 different combinations and I'm just guessing at this point. Any more clues...?

Shadow,

Here's more
Spoiler
Count how many positions are in the underground. That's the number of drawings that should remain.
[close]

More
Spoiler
The drawings should correspond to the positions, some almost exactly, others might require thinking about Martyn's descriptions of them
[close]

I had to narrow down my pool of possibilities by those methods, and then there was trial and error.

yes, that's what I did before I posted my question here. I guessed that's what it's about. But there are only 2 out of the 4 that correspond to anything. The rest are a guess and so far I've not succeeded.

Ok, i'm trying not to flat out ruin it.
Spoiler
For me, like the translation puzzle, two of the positions had two possible images. But some of the positions are unambiguous. Think about what body parts are involved. You can narrow it down.

Ok, will try again when I get a chance. Thank you :)

Ok, in the ruins...

Remember the advice from your relatives

I spent another half hour on this puzzle. I recorded every combination that I removed after removing the animals (15 possible combinations) and still no luck. Any hints on how to solve this? I assume that I'm trying to leave 4 of them so after the animals there are only 2 more to remove. I must be wrong somewhere.

These are the images you have to wipe off:
Spoiler


straight sex, female masturbation, doggy style sex and cunnilingus

Please let me know if you can't go on...

about fighting dragons...

Spoiler
if its true and only super powers are allowed to use, I wonder if I might have a positioning or timing problem to solve? There are two powers available and I guess to use first fire power and second earthquake, in order to hit the dragon with the falling rock. But the time is too short to hit him and whenever earthquake power is used, he turns to the side and then its quite difficult (and it takes me too long) to turn Martyn back in position for another front fire shot - meanwhile the dragon moved back again or disappeared.

Oh...I thought those were the ones I had to leave on. I guess I got it backwards. Thank you

Axxes,

You're right on the mark. Try slowing down the game, to give yourself a little time. And sometimes it helps to be repetitive.

Extra
Spoiler
Observe what happens when you hit the dragon with a fireball.
[close]

Extra2:
Spoiler
You want the rock to hit him just right.

so it seems to be a timing problem...
Spoiler
Thats exactly what I observed, thought and what I already tried numerous times... even with some combos of fireshots/earthquakes. Now I slowed down the game and still the dragon always moves his foot back before the falling rock is ready to hit him.
[close]

Tabata

hint about what is needed for the dragons fight
Spoiler
...yes, it' timing and positioning ...
You need to shoot from a correct position to make it move to the side â€" step, by step â€" when it has moved enough you can do the final strike as as already suspected ...
[close]
a bit more about positioning
Spoiler
Did you realize the pathway on the right side of the screen?
[close]
a bit more about timing
Spoiler
Three hits for to make it stand right and then the stone will be able to do you want it to do - and you need to do it all fast
[close]

axxesfun

Tabata:
Spoiler
No, I was not aware of the pathway on the right side of the screen - there was no separate hotspot. And all clicking onto the hotspot of the gate, which I should try to enter, only gave negative answers! So Martyn walked left and right but not ahead, because the path was not clearly visible. Thanks for your support... otherwise I could have been there for hours ;)
[close]

further on...
Spoiler
Now that I created the second extra animal power, I am trying to fight the minotaurus creature. I think its quite important to slow down the game, but still I had no success to conquer him. It could be another timing & positioning issue: Guess it might be best to hit him frontal, where the right timing seems to be very difficult to find.

Axxes,

for your second challenge
Spoiler
I had to slow the game down quite a bit to handle the bull man. Even though you can't bring up the inventory menu, you can press F5 to bring up the save game option and F7 for the load option, so you don't need to go through the flying sequence each time, especially useful if you slowed the game down before fighting the bull man.
[close]

strategy
Spoiler
He has a pretty simple attack pattern, with clues before he attacks. He's a bull and bulls only do one thing.
[close]

more strategy
Spoiler
the game mechanics isn't perfect, so don't wait too long before swinging
