Yes, we, Bulgarians, have no captured flag in our battle history.

Example:
August 1877
Russian-Turkish war
..The Russian army advanced against turkish to free Bulgaria after 500 years under Ottoman yoke.
Location: Old Mountain, passage Shipka.
We: Russian soldiers and Bulgarian volunteers (BG volunteers are not good trained and equipped. They have only one real weapon - The love to their country BULGARIA)- 7500 soldiers + 27 canons
They: turkish regular army- 27000 soldiers + 45 canons
After 3 days of terrible battle, the united Russian+Bulgarian forces repelled turkish ones.
Sorry, i break the rule to write down the word turkish with main T because my personal hate to these people.
....
Russian Lieutenant General Radetzky says the military correspondent for the French newspaper "L'Estafette", A. M. de Mlohovski
"Write mainly for my brave valiant regiments and Bulgarian volunteers who, lacking ammunition, repelling turkish attacks with stones".

We defended our homeland.
Wir verteidigten unsere Heimat.

Thats why, Bulgarians love the Russian people.
Because they freed us from yoke..
Some Hungarian units helped us also.

...
Maybe humble brave is descendent of some of these volunteers.

Please excuse my effusion.
I am patriot. As You are.

..
OK. I started my attempts to pass point 3 in Magic Mountain.

[yoga]

The brave is pleased to announce that finally he passed the check point 3 of Magic Mountain and he is before the house of the twins.
He will rest, prepares his best battle tactic and bravely enters the polite dispute with both gentlemen.

Yes, dear twillight, the patience is real option.
Anyway, 10 days for 2 points are not good image for yoga.

Are these guys good fighters? I think there are?

..Wie geht es Ihnen, gnadige und dear Kmonster?
Arbeit. Ah, genug..


Mama mia, what a game , Caro Capo..! Fantastic. Better than NWN2?

la la li la la li

Help, please!

After i defeated both bros, i found a button with strange unknown language!

Can some good hearth soul help me.. ? Caro Capo, do You understand the lang?? Or maybe Master Scatty? I duno? Sie, dear Kmonster?

..and what offering waits from me this stupid head of some guardian of rock?

[Scatty]

I'm sorry Yoga, I don't know this game, only started it once many years ago.
However this walkthrough should be able to help. Quoting (click on the button to reveal spoiler):

back down the stair and take the opening to the northeast. On this ledge you
will find a closet with a button. The button will open a chute and the area
leading to the PYRAMID.

Spoiler

You can read it up further for yourself in the link above if you'd like to, I better not spoil too much here

[kmonster]

The guardian has to be fought and defeated, there's nothing else to do with it.

The language on the sign is a mix of English and German, like an Englishman who doesn't really understand German trying to write in German and failing miserably.

The meaning is something like "Beware ! Press button for the exit"

If you press the button you get to a new part of the game (but you'll be able to return to the castle later).
I recommend killing the guardian first since you don't want to have to climb up again.

@Master Scatty
No problem, dear Master. I'll be silent like a big fish.

@Kmonster
Danke sehr fur Übersetzung.
Sie sind sehr freundlich.

OK.
BTW, I killed these Guardians of Rock. Yes, there are two, no one because brave use to be Expert.
Toll Troll was 2 Trolls. Bros were 4, not 2. This is the price of faster progress.
The first person informed me for increased number of my opps was dear und gnadige Sacred_Path.
voice from gallery--Hey, yoga, where is your ex-companion?
yoga - I do not know, sir.
Some NPC informed me that this good man reached the dead of heroes, trying to find the room of King in the Castle.
Another said he escaped from the Castle and now fights bravely around some New City..
God bless Sacred!

Humble note about brave's problem with points 2 and 3 in Mountain:
For novices.
-I think i failed because i did not read carefully the text before me when new foothold appeared. Yes, when i read UP, i have not to enter DOWN the hole. No, no i did not tried 300 times. No, i like to use hyperbole. Maybe 20-30 attempts, dear twillight. brave is lazy person.


Situation:
SCATTY THE NINJA - lvl 10. Far from lvl 11 (770 K EXP)
TWILL THE PRIEST, CAPO THE BARD AND KMONSTR THE MAGE - lvl 11.
EXP about 650 K.
PACO THE MONK - LVL 10, near to lvl 11 (690 K)
BRAVE THE VALKIRYE -lvl 10. She uses new table to increase EXP. As ex-Fighter.

I think i entered the Pyramid.

There is one Q, which make me uptight:
As You know the chest in Mountain was robbed by Queeq. What if protagonist killed this man at the earlier game stage? No robbed chest?

Let me come up with a combat strategy for these spells
So first I cast Armorplate so we survive the initial moments of the ambush of the 1000 enemy. Then cast Dispel Undead to get rid of the 500 zombies, liches and such, then Silence to cripple enemy mages.
After that I cure poison (maybe some zombies infected the group), then cure paralysis so everyone is ready to "retreat".
At that point I cast Stamina, so we will be able to run far with Haste. When Haste expires because of the few (10-20) remaining enemy (probably puny elves) I cast Enchanted Blade to get rid of them, finaly Heal Wounds and pretend this was all planed, everyone can see, not a scratch we suffered

Wow, what a nice battle plan! I will follow it.
Yes, i abs. agree with You.
The only moment which confused me is the case when my Priest TWILL is out of order.
To be fair, the Priest is very, very useable character: He is at once nice warrior and good doctor.
Sadly, i am unable to say same words for PACO the Monk, dear Kmonster. Ja, i am not so experienced player at this stage, but i still do not find his important role in the game.
No, no i do not criticize the team, just discus.

..ha ha ha ..
in my up/down in the pyramid i found strange chest - it jumped from alcove to alcove as March hare...
ha ha ha

You remember of course who March hare is? No?
Pls see my signature.
