San Diego, Academic Computer Center Lines: 16 I have several Ulitma III questions. First what does a thief do with powders (are they used to stop time?). Second what is the purpose of good fountains are you supposed to do something other then drink from them? I have found the Mark of Kings and what it allows you to increase in other words do I need to do something else before fountains can affect me? Thirdly I notice you can walk into lava at the cost of some hp is there ever a good (but not obvious!) time to do this? Fourth the trusty book of play mentions taming wild horses. In my one encounter they fought and killed me! What does one do? Lastly (I should find this out on my own but....) if one alerts the guard a. if one manages to kill the guards in the ?first? conflict are there more to face later on? and b. if not does this mean the town is now open to all the evil beasties and may become useless?
