Part 13

Complete Dark and Darker Part 13 walkthrough covering Mayor Dipwidge, Deont, Rattle Farm, and more. Learn how to get the Marimrosha's Ironwood crossbow recipe.

Mayor Dipwidge: Speak with Mayor Dipwidge outside the city. He asks you to persuade nearby woodcutters to play a game. Upon your return, he will transform them into chickens. He then asks you to play a game where touching them turns them into a cat, dog, pig, baby deer, and cat again. The goal is to make them all cats simultaneously. The correct sequence is: first deer, second dog, third cat. Remember to also get Auralia's potion of power.

Deont: Deont requires a mandrake, which can be found north of the west gate.

Camp Encounter: After speaking with the captain and buying abilities, head to the camp. You will face three waves of goblins: 1 shaman and 6 goblins, 2 shamans and 5 goblins, and finally 5 goblins. Prioritize targeting the shamans. After defeating the goblins, a cutscene (a non-interactive cinematic the game plays automatically) shows three ogres. Do not rush them. Place bear or fire traps (traps) in their path and lure them towards the guards for assistance. The chief has 400 vitality, and the other two have 250 vitality. While difficult for tanks, a mage using stone, paralysis, or aerofugo spells can significantly weaken them. Ancoron will join your party as a companion.

A Broken Tooth: Speak with wagoner Rilke in Tallon's inn. He will describe a beast's actions and give you a dragon's tooth.

Rattle Farm: On the way to Prenn's Grove, after a bridge, you will find a man on the ground. Heal him to learn that a wyrm destroyed Rattle Farm and scattered the workforce. Go to the farm and speak with farmer Groat. He has two requests:

• Rescue the workers: The workers hid in a gorge during the dragon's attack, falling under the control of a goblin tribe led by shaman Treesha Suula. They need 5 pigs to leave the area. If you mention that the ogres are dead, they will only require 3 pigs. You can either return to the farm for pigs or fight the goblins. If you choose to fight, you will face 14 goblins. After defeating them, click on one of the workers to have them return to the farm.
• Speak with Prancelot and destroy the dragon: Prancelot is being attacked by 2 wolves. He will boast about his abilities, but you must fight 9 goblins on the way to the dragon's cave. The cave entrance is blocked. Return to Groat for help. Upon returning, Prancelot will be gone. Inside the cave, you will encounter new enemies: crypt lices and amoebas. The left path has 4 waves of 5 lices each, and the right path has 7 amoebas. Proceed forward to witness a battle between lices and amoebas. Follow the road and watch a cutscene where Prancelot challenges the dragon. The dragon defeats Prancelot with a breath attack. The Linnorm has 500 vitality and a pestilence breath attack but is susceptible to debilitating spells. Defeat the Linnorm to receive 150 EP and 120 ducats from Groat after a haggle check (10). Leave the farm before Prancelot claims credit for killing the Linnorm.

Archon Megalon: Archon Megalon appears occasionally and speaks cryptically. Save your game before interacting with him and carefully consider his words before responding to receive useful, though potentially double-edged, information.

A Virgin for the Dragon: Use the pilgrim's bridge from Prenn's Grove to reach Tallon. Speak with the workers to learn that the mayor and other citizens plan to offer a virgin to the dragon. Speak with the maiden and the mayor, using your accomplishments to calm the mayor's fears and secure the maiden's release.

MUROLOSH

Drink the Dwarf Under the Table: Engage in a drinking contest with innkeeper Angraxa of Stone near the inn. Use beer and pass three Constitution (CN) tests. You can then use a Haggle check to make her lose.

The Travel Guide: Simbeard asks you to visit six merchants and share your impressions of Murolosh. Provide positive reviews to the dwarfs.

Unfortunate Inheritance: The four Groshna Marimrosha sisters are feuding over their mother's jewelry. The only one willing to initiate a swap can be found in the southeastern part of town. She requires a 10 ducat deposit, but this can be waived with a Haggle check. Swap the jewelry to receive the recipe for the Marimrosha's Ironwood crossbow.

Rest in Peace: Hand the cyclops skull found in Gruldur to Lugosh for a sanctified burial.
