Had the eight gems?, you're ready to finish the game, you have to talk to the priest on the earth plane (or the water plane, don't remember, is the one who tells you a long reedle). And you must read all the messages on the tombs off four castles.

You'll love the ending, this time, go to all the priest in the four planes. Take note about they say, and remember to examine each tomb you found in the Castles for messages.

You don't have to kill the good prince, neither the good pricess! If I remember well, The prince of air, The princess of Water, The princess of Earth give their gems at certain point (The princess of Fire is killed by his brother and I think he has it.) >but anyway. thanks in advance for anything you can give me... you might also >write me if you're having problems or need hints; i can tell you what i know >or have been told by someone more knowledgeable, or refer you, or whatever. >anyway. >as usual >paul An advice, don't drop anything without wearing it. Ex. dropping a strenght ring without wearing it. Str 16 ring unweared Str 18 ring weared Str 16 ring unweared Str 14 ring dropped unweared dropping wearing it. Str 16 ring unweared Str 18 ring weared Str 16 ring dropped weared. This the way I solve the bug.
