ULTIMA 7.5 - HELP

I have a few questions about the Serpent Isle.

1- When I played it a while ago, I got to some sort of trial in Fawn, in which
   I found out that the Oracle was being controlled - I cant remember how I 
   done it though.

2-I managed to free Captain Hawk, and went to Moonshade.
   Now what? I walked to the top of the island and found a derelict building,
    and a naked woman! What am I supposed to do here?

3-The guy in Moonshade says I need 5 mandrake? roots to get a spellbook - do
    I have to go to Monk Isle to get them?

4-Can I get back to Monitor and Fawn without Hawk?

Thanks,
Steve

Try switching some levers till the statue says enough or something like that,
then switch the right one (was stuck before), and tell the statue to tell the truth.

Talk to Flindo about getting an audience with the Magelord, talk to everybody
in town. Watch the story unfold.

Yes, but first you must solve some little puzzles before you can get to Monk Isle.

: 4-Can I get back to Monitor and Fawn without Hawk?

Later in the game there will be 2 Ways to go back to the Mainlands.
One Magic, and one on your feet.

Hope i could be of help

After Dupre gets arrested, talk to the leader of the rebels (I can't 
remember her name). She'll give you the key to the cell under the Oracle 
where you find the machine controlling it.

First talk to Pothos about the Mad Mage. He'll tell you a password to use 
at the building when you ring the bell. It will provide transportation to 
Erstam's Isle. I don't know the significance of the woman.

Yes, they have to be fresh from the swamp.

>4-Can I get back to Monitor and Fawn without Hawk?

Yes, Hawk won't leave Moonshade once he's there.

So what is your question?  To get to this trial, go talk to Yelinda and
Dupre will take care of everything for you.

   2-I managed to free Captain Hawk, and went to Moonshade.
      Now what? I walked to the top of the island and found a derelict building,
       and a naked woman! What am I supposed to do here?

Talk to Flindo to arrange an audience with the Mage Lord.

   3-The guy in Moonshade says I need 5 mandrake? roots to get a spellbook - do
       I have to go to Monk Isle to get them?

Yes.

   4-Can I get back to Monitor and Fawn without Hawk?

Yes.  Worry about your second question for right now.

Talk to every person in Fawn about every possible subject.  Pester people 
mutliple times if necessary.  Iolo should sing after a lightning storm, 
and you should have requested a meeting with the ruler of Fawn.

That will be explained later in the game.

Eventually, yes.

>4-Can I get back to Monitor and Fawn without Hawk?

Yes.

You're welcome.

Go and meet the ruler of Fawn. It's all pretty much automatic after that.

Seeing as he says "5 fresh mandrake roots picked from the swamp on Monk 
Isle"... yes. He will not be fooled with mandrake you buy from a purveyor 
of reagents.

: 4-Can I get back to Monitor and Fawn without Hawk?

No.

Opening the far left door in the entrance hall of the court (I forget 
where to get the key, I think it's from a guard) will lead you 
into a secret passage.  If you follow it, you will pass Dupre's cell, and 
enter a secret control room where you can manipulate what the oracle says.

Well...I never found that, unless you're talking about Frigidazzi.  Just 
explore the town and quests will unravel.

: 3-The guy in Moonshade says I need 5 mandrake? roots to get a spellbook - do

Yes, but in order to get there you'll need to speak with Pothos first 
about his father.

: 4-Can I get back to Monitor and Fawn without Hawk?

That's the only way you WILL be able to get back.  Though you don't need 
to, right now.
