Summoning all your strength, and, at the cost of 2 WILLPOWER points, you hurl a powerful blast at the Crystal Tower. The white light of your Staff hits the wall squarely but its magical fire is scattered by the wall’s resistance.

‘This is hopeless,’ says Tanith. ‘There must be some other way into the tower.’

If you wish to try to climb the tower, turn to 264.

If you prefer to examine one of the many black holes in the cloud plain, turn to 285.

If you wish to examine the section of the wall immediately below the metal plate that bears the inscription, turn to 181.
