	I am very close to the end of the game, and have just
a few things I can't figure out.  I can join the thorn to the
"snake" to make the staff of ages, but to do so I will need to 
use the invisibility scroll to get over the troll bridge the 
second time, and then can't get past the gargoyles.

 	I can't figure out these things:
  1)  What use is the sword, other than for killing the cyclops
  2)  How do you "form a bridge over flaming death", which
      I assume means where the statue with the glowing coals is
  3)  how do I defeat the hell hound which guards the platinum horn
  4)  if I can get past the gargoyles, how do I open the door next to
      the well ( I can get down the well and past Charon, but can't get
      the skull to open.  I assume I need the horn for that)

	Any help is greatly appreciated.  If you can just give me a few
hints, that is better than explaining the whole game and all the problems
I have listed above.
