The River of Fire (E2M3)

 

From the start point, head over to the lava-filled cave ahead. Run to the back of it and grab the crossbow. Dispatch the enemies and throw the switch.

Head back to the start point, and run down any of the stairs. At the top of the stairs, a new cave opens and Weredragons start pouring out, so just keep running.

     
 

Run around the whole river, collecting health vials (you should be pretty battered after the 1st fight) and jumping in for some crossbow bolts into the lava river (unless you've got enough ammo). Shoot only the monsters barring your way, else keep running. If you stop for fighting, you'll be cornered fast.

Beside the yellow door, there's a small alcove from the river side. Jump in for a Dragon Claw.

     
 

Following the river will take you eventually back to the start point, but this time with more health and ammo. Time to get rid of the Weredragons. In the cave they came from you'll find the Gauntlets and a quartz flask or two.

Go in the direction of the lava cave you found the crossbow in and look for a small crevice on either side. Slip in and you'll be in a corridor leading to one of the Green Doors. On the right side, you can get the yellow key, on the left side, a Tome of Power.

     
 

Get back to the Yellow Door, tracking the river once again. Activate the Tome and open the door, but don't enter. With the powered-up Elvenwand, you can make short work of the Gargoyles. Switch to the Gauntlets and enter the room, then run over to the other side where Weredragons appear. If you're fast enough, you'll have no trouble killing them all before the Tome gives out.

     
 

Collect the quartz flasks, the Morph Ovum and the Wings of Wrath. Get back to the start point. Activate the Wings and fly over the river from one end to the other, collecting everything from it.

     
 

Go to any of the green doors and open it. Against the Sabreclaws, the time bombs will work just fine, but watch out for the Disciple. Go up the stairs, then kill more Sabreclaws and throw the switch, then grab the artifacts from the windowsills (watch out for the Disciples on the other side of the bars).

     
 

You can now access the blue key in the lava cave. There's also a switch, after you throw it get down to the lava river to collect the Phoenix Rod and some ammo for it.

Go to any of the blue doors, activate the Tome and the Shadowsphere and switch to the Gauntlets.

     
 

Open the door and suck dry all the unsuspecting critters. Before the Tome and the invisibility gives out, you can clean up one side. Switch to the crossbow or the Dragon's Claw for the Disciples (or use the Morph Ovum on them).

     
 

Enter the exit room if you're low on health. Grab the quartz flasks but before you exit, clean out the other side as well. In case you didn't notice, there's a Falcon Shield and a Bag of Holding on the left side. On the right side, you'll find a Hellstaff.

Once you crushed all resistance and robbed the caves plain, it's time to exit.
