Obscure
15) Why do the Watcher's Shades hate their home?
Because it is in the marsh.
Because it rains all the time.
Etc & etc & etc.
It is hard to get anywhere when you are a Shade and there is water every
seven feet. The Watcher must spend a great deal of time in the Marsh; why
else would he have the alias, "Mad Goat of the Fens?"
16) What is peculiar about the way villagers worship?
They worship a Pfhor image. (2 points)
They worship facing away from their shrine.
A few entries pointed out that the image on the stone in Force Ten
for Stonehiem looks like a Pfhor. I thought so too, but was afraid
to tell anybody. That answer only awards 2 points; despite the keen observation,
it has nothing to do with the way the villagers pray.
17) Which single player level lacks a sense of direction and has a nearly
identical twin?
Across the Gjol.
This map seems to have a number of peculiarities.
18) Hidden somewhere in Myth is another name for the level The Watcher;
what is it?
A Hundred Shallow Graves.
As hex editing the tags.gor file reveals.
19) Hidden somewhere in Myth is another name for the level Homecoming;
what is it?
An Unexpected Homecoming.
Ditto. These were probably the original names for these levels and can
be found next to tags for the bits of text we see in the prologues. All
the other tags have the correct level names except for Ambush at Devil's
Overlook which is referred to as 'challenging stage.'
20) Where is a clue that level Five Champions went through some
changes before Myth was released?
The cutscene before Five Champions
The Myth box
The Myth Demo sell screen
early Myth ads
21) What kind of spell was used to turn Dwarven and fir'Bolg Legionnaires
into troops for the Deceiver?
A Charm.
In the tags.gor file the name-tags of the Dark fir'Bolg and Dwarves
in Shadow of the Mountain are are identified as 'fir'bolg (evil
charmed)' and 'dwarves (evil charmed),' respectively.
Incidentally, there are also 'berserks (evil charmed),' 'journeymen
(evil charmed),' and 'warrior evil charmed' units, but we never see them.
However, if you have played with the DarkMyth patch, you can catch a glimpse
of many of them.
Apparently all 'evil charmed' units appear duller and shaded. Therefore
the lone Dwarf which appears halfway through Shadow of the Mountain.
was charmed and was able to break free of the spell. Or perhaps Bungie
had something more evil in mind? (Look at the Tie-Breaker.)
