Straightforward, as long as you have a glass sword.  There -is- one in that
dungeon, out in the northwesternmost area.  If I remember correctly, there
is a dragon (or two, we're pretty prolific sometimes ;) guarding the room
that it is hidden in; one of the bodies there has it, I think.  It's
possible to search the human-shaped scorch marks on the floor... just in
case you didn't know. :)  You have to go to the beginning of the dungeon
and then back down the long east-west passage with lots of nasty deadly
things flying from the walls.  It's in that part.  You can use that glass
sword, or one from somewhere else, and it'll polish the red blob of beast
inside the Tet pretty easily.  That's one of the few things I remember from
playing that game. <grin>  Hope I help...

Whack Spark's parrot over the head in his house with a gavel (neatly 
placed on the table) and he will give you the latitude and longitude 
directions of a cave where you can find a few glass swords.

The first time I went in I did not need a glass sword. I defeated the
monster with the firedoom staff. But you should start firing early. The
fireballs track, but they are slow. Best effect is to enter in combat
mode. You probably have a staff already from Horrance, the Liche of
Skara Brae (there are more).

Undeniably, but by the time you whack the beast 4 times, you're dead meat.
the reson is that your dexterity is low (cause you normally train your
magic, at least I did), so you are kinda slow. The idea is to inflict
some heavy duty damage before you come down to hand-to-hand combat.
Therefore, you need missiles. However, I will agree with you that with
full magic armor, ring of protection+invisibility, and full health, you
can take him on hand-to-hand. Or you can cast mass might that'll double
your strength (and hit points). What's good about this game is that you
have choices.

	Actually he is extremely easy.  All you have to do is be combative
and strategic.  Don't just press the dumb "C" key and watch the action.  What
you have to do is press "C" and once your weapon begins to swing quickly
press away from the beast.  90% of the time you will get a hit and he/she/it
will be left there standing swatting air!   GOOD LUCK!

Where did you find the key to get it ? Just for interest's sake.

I used the blackrock sword and had a spell of protection in place.  That 
is all I used and it kill'em quick.

	The key is under a fish around the western part of the lost lake I
believe it's name is(sorry my Brittanian geography is not up to par) but it
is the swamp directly  above Cove.  Just follow the garbage and move all
junk.  Eventually you will find it.  Then take the key back to the farmer's
little hut.  


	BTW Arcadian in the Black Sword is more powerful.  However having a
good weapon for your companions always does the trick.
