Story/History:
- West of Midgaard and through the forests of Haon-Dor near the shores of the great ocean lies the River Island of Minos. A land of the dead, it is a mystical place, full of many unexplained occurrences. Whispered rumors speak of a strange, animal-like king ruling the land, and also of a mystical sea, into which many have disappeared...and none return. Beware!
- Tam's extension to this area, the Sea of Dreams, is covered on a separate wiki page. Find information pertinent to the original Trials of Minos here.
Mobs of Note:
- General Woundwort - (troll gauntlets), Hanz - (heavy spear, flail), King Minos - (dark minotaur shield, platinum ring), swordsman - (speckled potion)
General Zone Strategies:
- Beware the DT on the way to the Trials. The run down the Dark River is 25w and the DT is 26w.
- The final trial, the battle with Minos, takes place in an !exit room. Set a gate 1n from his throne room. Defeat him and get his golden key, unlocking a treasure room containing a pile of gold coins and if you're lucky, a crash only platinum ring.
- The zone resets quickly, and will reset occupied, so beware!
