Paths of the Earth

There are many paths to power, strength of arm and command of men; a subtle mind and skilled tongue; The Dagger in the Darkness; but for those who seek arcane knowledge there is the path of the mind, a life dedicated to study. But what good is such strength if it comes too late? Beneath the college of Shadowmere there is another way, by tradition those who choose this path are acknowledged as masters of the art magic and afforded all rights and privileges accorded to that rank. None can remember the last to set foot in the deep halls; if you seek power arcane then dare you walk The Paths of the Earth?

I've tried to make this bug free but considering this is my first mod (for LoG) it will probably have some problems as I'm still learning to use these tools, if you run into any please let me know.

Thanks go to the following for use of their custom assets snd/or scripting help:

Neikun: Isgardian and Urgardian, custom torches, crystal pack

28. Fixed issues resulting from last update
29. Only a handful of players have found Gale Rhys's skull, after a quick search I found that I cannot find it myself, despite the fact that according to the editor there is one on the map, as such I have added a new one, but still can't find the orginal so it remains too
30. Polish, grammar checks on scrolls and fixing texture issue
31. altered Lvl 1 layout, added more monsters (it was a boring section of dungeon)
32. Altered logic for the cartograph puzzle and heart/mind puzzle. Cartograph will now check for items even if other items are in the alcove. Any changes to the Heart/mind combinations will now register (so it will check the combination when torches are removed as well as when they are placed).
33. The carthographers puzzle now registers the placement of the left gem first time (instead of the thing with it glitching half the time)

+ New Mode added: Find the scroll on the assassins body somewhere in the dungeon to discover how to unlock it!, when entering the new mode only the stats and attributes of the first characther mater, just create dummy characthers for the rest of the party

+ New secrets have been added, including a new major secret Drakes demise!

With this the dungeon is hopefully bug free, but let me know if anything arises.
