Hi Kiya,
Thank you for your warm welcome and your help. I have the key to the storeroom, but I have never been able to get inside - I'll try your hint.
I honestly can't remember if I went back to the cursed man this time round, but I'll try it and see what happens.
As for the earth elemental king, I have uncovered the entire area, but no king. Maybe I'll have to find an earlier savegame (should have plenty of them - lol).
I am sorry, if I sounded like I don't enjoy the game. I do, but I guess I don't really having to go back over the same thing (with the same character). It sometimes gets frustrating. But on the other hand, you will find me playing it till late - telling my husband that I will be up in a minute, because I just have to do this one more thing - lol! And I do want to find out the rest of the story! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
