Walkthrough

You will appear round the Nordberg town indeed, but you won't n be able to storm the town. You have to take control over red Minions first. They can hurl fire balls. To do that you have to go to the sanctuary. You should know the way because you've already been there.

Just next to the entrance to the cave [P2] in which the sanctuary is located there is a stone. The magical power of stone will help you to walk in the enemy territory [1]. Command the Minions to attach themselves to the stone then use some magic to it. Thanks to that you will take control over one of the Minions.

Tell your Minions to pass the bridge and go to the sanctuary [2]. Don't go straight to the driad who guards the entrance. Follow the narrow path on the right.

You have to defeat the driad now. You have to attack in a traditional way to kill the driad. When her health is low she still lives. She will be protecting herself by hiding behind some leaves. You won't be able to hurt her then. The nearby flower will open instead! Destroy it to kill the driad.

After you've killed the driad, use the magic or come back to the Overlord. Thanks to that you will take control over the Evil Master. Pass the bridge and get to the sanctuary. Pass by the place where the driad were sitting some time ago.

You will meet a lot of bloodthirsty plants. Try to attack them from distance as often as you can - red Minions can do that and you will take control over them soon. Go further; the way in sanctuary is quite easy.

You'll meet other driads but don't fight with them. You will need the Reds to succeed.

Walk through the passage on the right. Slide down and kill all the gnomes you have met there.

Cross the water and head for the thorny barricade. Your Minions will have to stay behind because there's no bridge for them.

You will meet Reds next to the thorny barricade [3]. After red Minions have destroyed the barricade go to the next part of this level.

After a short cut-scene follow the corridor. Destroy following blockades and ransack everything on your way.

Use the lift to get to the higher level of the sanctuary. Go ahead; eliminate all your opponents (now you can attack from a distance! The driads you've met earlier [4] are not a problem for you now) and steal the goods of the local people.

You'll get to the harp [B] eventually. You'll find the teleport on your further way so you will be able to teleport the harp to your abode by using that gate.

You'll find the magic stone [5] later. It's the same kind of stone which you've found next to the entrance to the sanctuary. Use it to take control over one of the Minions.

Send the Minions to the small passage which is placed opposite the possession stone. Go to the lift and go up as fast as you can. Thanks to that even the Overlord will be able to use the lift. Resume controlling the Evil Master so you'll be able to use the lift again and go down. Once the Overlord reaches the place previously visited by Minions, beat all the elves nearby and continue your journey.

You'll meet the three driads on your way. Set the gathering point for your Minions (default key 'Q') and let them hurl the fire balls into driads. After you've weakened the threesome, command the Minions to destroy the flower (it grows on the left) to destroy the enemies finally.

Destroy the thorny barricades and damage the statue [6] which is behind them with your axe. You'll find the crystal in the statue and crumble it. Then you'll find the artifact. It should be taken to the Dark Tower because then the artifact will upgrade the Overlord's mana supply. Meanwhile you will be watching the cut-scene.

The fallen statue will create a kind of bridge. You'll get to the exit of that stage by walking on it. Command your Minions to take the mana upgrade and the hive [D] which will enable you to recruit Reds to the teleport.
