I seem to remember seeing a comment that there were different endings to
The Dark Savant.  All I found were two, both at the same place.  BTW while
I found the game very challenging and will certainly will get Wiz 8, my two
pennies worth are that the Wiz 7 end game is rather flat and certainly is not
an ego booster.  It leaves a rather obvious(maybe) opening to Wiz 8.  I also
found that during the second half of the game that every approx
half dozen moves the game would freeze for up to 10 seconds on my work 25M
386sx and for a significantly less(expected), but still annoying period of
time, on my home 486/33.  I can only assume that it was off in a process the
NPC's sub-plot loop or doing extraordinary decision making as when next to
give me the inevitable battle.  Although I did appreciate the fact that there
were obviously battles to be had on the intial track through an area and that
on subsequent travels on the same track that only the occasional random
encounter would occur.

Any comments on end game scenarios would be welcome, probably e-mail is best,
so as to not spoil it for others.
