- But I'm still confused. That's what I thought he meant at first, but
- on reflection, I can't imagine what trick is common to levels 2 and 11.
- For that matter, what trick is there to level 2? That's just a hack-and-
- slash level, designed to give you practice against the guards. There is
- no trick, except to notice that the last guard doesn't need to be faced.
- (And none of them need to be killed, but that's for later when you are trying
- to improve your time.) And on level 11, he had the potion, but just didn't
- know how to get back. Again, there is no trick, except maybe to remember to
- grab hold, which should be second nature by the time you get to level 11.
-
- Oh well, 'nough said. Let it drop.
