Yes, you should join the Fellowship.  It is very important that you talk with
the gypsy outside of Minoc.

**** SPOILER ****















The magic book, reagents, and other neat stuff are located in some
rooms on the roof of the castle in Britain.  There are several hidden
levers that give you access to the walls within the castle.  One
lever is in LB's bedroom, and you must move a barrel to find another
handy lever.  Check out the NW and NE corners of the roof once you get
up there. You will find a key in LB's study that you need to get to the
magic book.  Talk with LB (the king) in the castle. 

Hint: look under everything that you can move, and look in every desk, 
drawer, barrel, fish body, etc. that you come across in the game.  Read
(use) all books you find for important information and humor.

Keys are used close to where they are found.  Beware!  There is a bug
in the game that deletes keys in your possession while you sleep.  To
get around the bug, keep the keys in your backpack.  Remove the backpack
and place it on the ground.  Then use a bed or your bedroll (if outside)
to sleep and recharge your energy.  When you awake, don't forget to put
your backpack back on.  To keep from collecting too many keys, I dropped
each key in an obvious place once I found its use.  Most keys have
a single purpose.


Enjoy,

-Steve-
