ℹ The events of this game are not part of the canon story and timeline of the SpellForce universe. |
During the Trial of Zerbo on The Stepping Stones, you have to sneak through a town avoiding the guards patrolling it.
Amongst other curious figures, you'll meet the Suspicious Figure.
If you're playing for the achievements Difficulty courts and/or Berserker thief, give 100 gold to the Suspicious Figure to buy the Mace of the Guardian from him.
You need this mace to win the two achievements later.
You can also give the stolen apple to the man, and he will make the barrel explode while you go hiding in the corner.
While the guards are running to the barrel, and then after the Suspicious Figure, you can make your way just north of the cages that have blood all around them and wait for the next passing guard.
Then sneak your way to the exit.
Trivia
According to the game files, the Suspicious Figure is suppose to be Zerbo itself pranking his own guards and/or any traveler that attempt to pass his trial.
Quotes
You there! Wanna see a trick?
Come on, everyone loves a good trick! Wanna see this one?
Simple. You give me something and I set this barrel on fire, then we run. Everybody who gets away before the guards arrive, wins.
The famous and exorbitantly priced apple that grants you superhuman strength for years? You are too kind. Of course, I'll take it.
One coin? Really? You from Westguard, or something? Eh? Eh? Still, beggars can't be choosers, so I'll take it.
Oh, this is a really a good day. Here, a weapon gratis for you, Sir. Just be sure you don't show it much around the guards. They are... how to put this?
It was just lying there, I swear! You want it, or not?
Here we go. Did you do a proper warm-up? You gonna need to be fast!
Run! Run! The barrel is on fire.
