9. King's Quest Chapter 2: Saving Bramble

At the start of Chapter two you will be in Graham's Castle. Answer the questions any way you like. Walk along the red carpet and out into the hallway. In the hall there are a few objects to interact with either side of you. The most notable being a bust of Achaka.
After exiting the castle you will unlock:

Continue along the path and blow Pillare's horn for a cutscene. On your left hand side will be the door to the Blacksmiths, walk up to it and knock, no answer. Go right to the Bakers door and some Goblins will ambush you.
After being caught by the Goblins you will be in a pitch black cell. Walk up towards the top of your screen and right a little to reach the Newt. Try to grab him but he runs away.
Walk straight down to the bottom of the cell and try to grab him a second time. The Newt will run to your left.
Walk left until you are directly beneath him, then walk forward to grab him.

A jar will role down to the bottom of the screen, collect it.
Starting from the jar walk to your far right and then up. Instead of grabbing him with your hands, open your inventory and use 'Empty Jar' on the Newt.
To the right of our cell will be a leaver, pull it to collect 'Empty Bucket'. To the top of your screen will be a pipe with a grate underneath. Put the 'Empty Bucket' on top of the grate.

To the left of your cell is a red tap. Turn the tap to receive 'Bucket of Porridge'. In the middle of the cell will be a table with a placemat, use a 'Bucket of Porridge' to regain some health. Anytime you need to eat, it has to be done at the placemat.
Pull the leaver to the right hand side of the cell once more to go to bed.
The number of stones weighing down the leaver will show you whether you have enough strength to use it or not. We have currently eaten one item of food, meaning we can use leavers with one or less stones attached. After we have eaten three meals we will be able to use all the leavers in this Chapter.
The Goblins will of given you a 'Cleaning Rag' to use on the Cobwebs. Just before you reach the Spiders Web will be a small crack in the wall.

Peer through it to see Mr. Fancycakes, notice his health bar and the Skull n' Crossbones.
All of the Prisoners will have a certain amount of Hearts, this will show you how many days they will last without food. In this case Mr. Fancycakes has three days left to live including today.
The Skull n' Crossbones indicates he is also sick. This means food won't be enough, he will require Medicine to survive.
Use 'Cleaning Rag' from your inventory on the Cobweb and follow the path up the wooden stairs. When you reach an opening walk through it to arrive at the First floor.
If at any point during the game you can't find the area your looking for I have made a picture map showing the different rooms of the Ground, First and Second floors. For the duration of this walkthrough as not to cause confusion I will refer to the different Levels as follows.

The bottom level where Graham's cell is will be known as The Ground Floor.
The current level we are on containing all the prisoners will be known as The First Floor.
The top level that we have yet to go to will be called The Second Floor.

Cross over the bridge in front of you. Notice the creepy gingerbread sign. Continue forward along the path until you reach Wente.
During the cut scene we will meet Bramble, ask the Fey's all three questions and have a look around their cell. Notice they have cooking supply's but need wood for the oven. They will also need medicine to keep Bramble alive.

To the right of the cell will be another Cobweb for you to clean.

Follow the path to the left. You will see Amaya, ask her all three questions to find out she needs a blade. Whilst looking around her cell notice the guard to the left has a key, whilst the guard to her right has a coin.

To the right of her cell will be another Cobweb for you to clean
Follow the path going right, back to the Fey's. Continue along the right path until you reach the Hobblepots.
Ask the Hobblepots all three questions to find out they need food in order to help you. Look around there cell and notice the Cauldron as well as a Book of Spells.

To the left of there cell will be the final Cobweb, clean it to receive 'Sticky Spiderweb'.
Follow the path left back to the Fey's cell. Walk along the path towards the bottom of your screen and across the bridge. Keep walking until the Goblins return you to your cell.
Pull the leaver on the right hand side of the cell to lower your bed. The Goblin guards will give you a shake down to make sure you aren't carrying any contraband.
It is important to remember that they give you a shake down every night before bed. Meaning any contraband we find must either be used that day or hidden for safe keeping.
After waking up turn around and use 'Meat' on the placemat. Leave your cell and follow the path up the stairs, continue past the First Floor and up to the Second.
If you try to walk through the entrance a guard will block your way. To the left of the entrance you will see a leaver. Use 'Sticky Spiderweb' on the leaver and proceed through the opening. Walk forward to the Central Island. Notice the Weeds at the bottom of the Goblin Ladder inside the centre column.
Time to explore! Take the left path and you will come to some Outhouses. Unfortunately we don't have the means to catch a fly yet. To your left will be a gate, try to open it to find out we will need another person.
Walk right, then forward around the corner. Climb the stairs and wind the crank to your left to open the door.
To your right will be a tiny door, enter it to see a grouchy Goblin Princess. In the top left corner is a Music Box, but unfortunately we don't know any Lullaby's to use on it yet. Exit back through the door.
Go right towards the green curtain for a cut scene. Walk towards the top left and enter through the middle of the curtains. We are now backstage.
Trapdoor puzzle

• In order to open the trap door there must be a counter weight on the pressure pad.
• Wait until the rock on your right is raised and wind the crank to move it to the left.
• Wait until the rock now situated on your left is lowered and wind the crank a second time.
• Stand on the trapdoor and collect a 'Frog'.

Walk down the stairs past your adoring fans and to the left. Follow the path down towards the bottom of your screen, go back down the ladder and right to the Central Island.
Follow the path down once more and descend the stairs until you reach the First Floor. Go through the archway to where the three bridges are.
We are now strong enough to use both the cranks to lower the other two bridges. Cross the bridge to your right. The one with a small sign post depicting a Witch and follow the path to the Hobblepots.
Open your inventory and use a 'Frog' on Chester. He will remember the missing ingredient for his potion, an eye of fly.
Backtrack to the Second Floor by following the path back to the bridge and crossing it. Follow the path down under the archway. Ascend the stairs and walk through the entrance to the Second Floor. Follow the path forward.
From the Central Island turn left and return to the Outhouses. Use 'Frog' on the Outhouse to collect a 'Fly'.

Backtrack to the Second floor by following the path to the bridge and crossing it. Ascending the stairs and following the path to the Central Island.
In front of you will be the Goblin ladder with some kind of climbing plant growing under it. Walk up to the plant and use 'Weed-Growing Potion' from your inventory.
Time to explore the rest of the Second floor. Follow the path to the right and enter under the flowery archway to see The Merchant of Miracles.
Ask the Merchant all three questions to find out he has some items you need. Porridge costing 2 gold coins. Medicine and Chopsticks costing 1 gold coin each. Unfortunately we don't have any money yet, so follow the path down and to the right.
You will see another Goblin sized door, peek through the keyhole to spot some flour. Continue right until you reach a dead end.

Pull the sword from the stone to receive a 'Frying Pan Sword'. Backtrack left and down the stairs to the First Floor.
Cross the bridge to your left and notice the small sign with a Werewolf like creature on it. Continue along the path until you reach Amaya.
Open your Inventory and use 'Frying Pan Sword' on Amaya. When asked which Goblin she should swat pick 'The one on the left' to receive a 'Key'.
After the cut scene the Goblins will present you with more 'Meat' to feed the Mole rat, return to your placemat and eat it to fully restore your health.

To the bottom left of your cell you will see a Large Pipe. Walk up to it and unscrew all three bolts. Climb up inside of the pipe, keep crawling until you drop down into a new room.

At the bottom of the hay stacks is a bucket, collect the 'Gold' from inside. To your right will be a Music Box just like the one we saw earlier.

• Turn the bottom knob twice
• Turn the top knob twice

Go left along the path back to the Central Island. Go left again then forward up the ladder. Go right through the small Goblin door into the bedroom.
In order to get the princess to sleep we must play her the Lullaby we learnt, by selecting each note one at a time. To select a note move the cursor so that the desired key is in between the two outward facing arrows.

The picture above shows the numbers I have given the keys.

Go back up the stairs to the Fireplace and walk left. Follow the bottom path until you see the wall covered in flowers.
Walk up the ramp and through the small door. Continue along the garden path to the right and then straight forward to a vase full of roses.
This next part can be tricky as you need to be relatively quick. What we have to do is transport one of the roses from the garden all the way down to the Hobblepots.
During the Chapter you might of noticed stone water baths scattered all over. As soon as you pick up the Rose it will begin to wilt. In order to keep the Rose from dying we must dip it in each water bath we come across.
It may be easier to read the route you have to go (shown below) first before starting the puzzle because if you take to long you will have to return to the vase and start again.
