entering broken valley {after Damian destroyed it}, I took control of the fort just to the right of DR. needleman's storage. I did the switch that unlocks the area just to the right of the champion zeppelin {in relation to the fort left of that. the problem is that there is no platform there, just a big rock! the black ring are inside and the only way to defeat them was to sic my creature on them.
once i figured out how to get inside of the fort {the one to the left of the starting entrance..ie, by way of the portal from stone's flying fortress}, I searched for a switch in there, but found none. the switch for this fort is also covered over by a big rock as well. I stumbled into a portal that sent me over to the left of the zeppelin.....killed those guys, but when I moved out far enough, i found it too was covered over by a big rock.....could not get back in. this glitch, for some reason, is making it impossible for me to enter rayun's fortress....I entered the other one {her name start's with a "G"} o.k. and defeated her, getting the potion of wisdom {which I drank}. ....I am using Barbatos {I think that's his name}. I'm not too sure, but i believe I did this quest o.k. before i installed flames of vengence.....do you folks think this has something to do with this? confused
