Round 12:
You inquire about any possible ways to bypass the Moonstone Citadel and still defeat the Dragon of Doom. The Sage's expression turns grave as they respond.
"The Moonstone Citadel is a formidable fortress, protected by ancient magic and guarded by loyal sentinels," the Sage warns. "Bypassing it would be a near-impossible feat. However, legends speak of a hidden underground passage that leads directly to the heart of the citadel. Finding it will require keen observation and solving intricate puzzles."
Options:
1. Thank the Sage for the information and leave to find the Whispering Grove.
2. Ask the Sage if they have any advice on how to navigate the puzzles within the Moonstone Citadel.
3. Disregard the Sage's advice and continue your quest without seeking the hidden entrance.
