Quest for Freedom II

Story line.
Years ago, as you remember, Link Sr. fought and defeated ganon, but as it turns out Ganon didn't die, badly injured and at deaths door he went into hiding.
Life went on with Ganon in hiding, and Link and Zelda married and had two fine sons, Link Jr. and Dink, Dink being one year behind Link Jr.
As the boys grew, Ganon's henchmen also grew in strength and in numbers, and as their numbers grew, the freedoms of the Hyrulians were stripped from them.
The people, starved, beaten, and driven from their homes, longed for a saviour to free them once again from the bondage of Ganon and his henchmen.

One day the Hyrulians brought Link sr. home dead, a victim of Ganon's henchmen.
Enraged, Link and Dink buried their father in a little spot they prepaired in the yard of
the home they grew up in.

With their mother, Zelda in mourning at the gravesite.....
Link and Dink decided the time had come to rid the world of Ganon and his type.
Link Jr. was always a fighter, but now he had the support of Dink who was a master
at inventing systems and weaponry.

Link decided to set out and destroy ganon and his henchmen once and for all, and Dink was set to the task of being Links support chain.

Notes on game play.

The game is set up to follow the clues given at the end of each level in the "exit message".
The exit messages will tell you what area (usually dungeon levels) to go to next.
The red tile in the triforce room will allow you to go back and visit the exit messages again, should you need to.
In addition to the above, you should get to know the overworld well, several items that you must have in the dungeons are in the overworld areas, so you should walk the whole
overworld areas before becoming dependant on the warp chamber which might cause you to overlook needed items and information.
People in the overworld will also often give you good tips, if you just stop and talk to them.

Once you complete a level and grab the triforce piece you can blow your whistle, and you will be picked up and flown back to the levels you've completed.
There are two overworlds, eight dungeon levels with eight triforce pieces, and the ninth level is where Ganon is, if you have the courage to make it that far.

PrinceMSC for Rev.2 and old ML tiles, Orion for his LTTP tileset, plith for the Descendant Tileset of which this quest was started, and what the pallettes are,
and many tiles collected from all over as well as many I made.

The info shop in the game is a salute to Prince for all his hard work with ZC, and because he released the Rev.2 unpassworded to help folks see how things work.
The info guy is winking at Prince :O)
and thanks to IDK for the tutorial and a block puzzle in level 3.

I've checked this very carefully for bugs, but that doesn't mean they don't exist, you may do something playing this game I never dreamed of :O)
Please let me know if you find any bugs so I can correct them :O)

the quest can be downloaded here.
http://www.ida.net/users/mfreedom/ZC/IIscreens.htm

The two quests are as different as day and night :O)

most of the pictures are outdated and have changed, I'm just to lazy to update them. :O)

Wow its a beautiful looking quest and plays great so far. But of course I'm already stuck in the Den of Thieves cause I can't find the bracelet and can't move the barrels in the map room. Please can you help me? I did find a treasure already but its not the bracelet. If you don't want to spoil the secret can you pm me.
Thanks in advance

ms_zelda_lady

Dink's hint to get the keys.

the barrels don't move, have to go in from the stronghold, in the room below where the guy says "they're stealing our powder, but we don't know how they're getting in".
The stronghold is in the windmill.

Thank God for the edit button......LOL
This is absolutely the most incredible quest I've ever played.
Freedom you have outdone yourself with this masterpiece.
Done the first level and have gotten what I need to move on.
Been searching the overworld and have done some shopping at the megastore so I'm up to date with supplies. Got the blue clothes, shield, bow and arrow and even found a boomerang. Found level 3 by accident. Took a quick peek in and can't wait to do that level later. But my 2 questions are now that I have 7 hearts where's that white sword and where's level 2? For everyone out there go and download this quest and I guarantee you won't be sorry you did. Be forewarned its not the easiest but I must admit this is the most fun I've had in a long time.
ms_zelda_lady

Yup I'm trying to move along but ..........can't seems to find my way to the Lost Woods :confuse2:
Am I supposed to be able to walk to the Lost Woods or am I supposed to get there by going through the caves in Drygulch. I heard the clue about the red flowers but there's only a house there and it seems that the wall prevents me from going more to the west.
Thanks in advance
ms_zelda_lady

you're close :O)
just keep looking at the flowers and follow the trail :O)

didn't ya ever do any tracking in the girl scouts? :O)

Sorry no girl scout here. LOL
Yipee!!! Thanks for your help. I figured it out. Boy sometimes I wonder if I have a brain afterall. On my way there now. BTW I did alot of the Palace of Death and the sewers. Loved that block puzzle! Took a few tries but I got it.
ms_zelda_lady

nice quest .have a question about lvl 3 I,m stuck I think I need the ladder but cannot find it.please help.

This is one off the best games I played so far
I really like it a lot
there are a few bugs when you move sculls and get stuck in the holes
You have done a great job !!!!

Elise.

where is that?
I remembered setting the flag and then when I went back I couldn't find the one I'd set.
somewhere in N. Drygulch right?
never made the room for it, instead it's "pepi's place" now.

Sasja,

investigate the rooms carefully, there are 2 things you are over-looking :O)

Yes one is in N.Drygulch on the bottem off the overworld
in the screen with the little lake
and the other was I think in the other part off Drygulch

Thank you, I'll fix those.
I bet when I was looking for them I didn't have the bracelet, and that's why they wouldn't push :O)

Edit;
I removed the flags from those two skulls and re-uploaded a new zip file.
thanks again :O)

I did level 3 several times and there are areas I cannot go to.I investigate every room for many times.I,m realy stuck will you give me a hint please?

Hey Freedom, just me stuck again in level 2 LOL I got one key which I usedand got the white sword. Met the man with the bow but I'm now going in circles and can't find any more keys or the way to the lower level. I am figuring that I need the hookshot down there but I can't find that either. Can you or someone else help me?
Thanks in advance
ms_zelda_lady

ms_zelda_lady you are right you need the hookshot.
There for you need to take a little walk in N hyrule
Good luck

Sasja,
push blocks too :O)

ms_zelda_lady
in the exit message for level 1, remember what the lady almost forgot to tell Link? :O)

Thanks for the help elise. I got the hookshot and I'm finished level 2. I am also stuck finding the ladder in level 3. I have only 4 rooms on the western side of the map that I can't get in and a few on the eastern side which one of them holds a key that I can't get to. I'm in dire need of the ladder and have bombed and tried to walk-thru those four walls on the left but nothing works. Please Freedom some help would be really nice right now.

Thanks in advance

ms_zelda_lady

you've got me confused Zelda_lady.
What have you gotten out of level 3?
if nothing, follow the hint I gave right above about pushing blocks.
I thought you said you had already been in the sewers.

I pushed blocks and found the first item but for me I,m as far as ms zelda I,v been in the sewers but not everywhere.there is a room in the sewers where I came by bombing a wall but there is nothing there.I cannot come any further and playing lvl 3 over and over again.so far it is one of the best quest I,ve ever played and want to finish it.

The room in the sewer has two eyes use one of your items
on them and you can get up.
From there you can finish the level without the rooms in the western part.
Maybe we have to go there later when we have the ladder ?
There are also two rooms in level two I couldn't enter ?
Now I am in desperate need of the raft . I found a red tree
I think it's the right one .I found a passage west but there I can't get to the rightside where that nice red suit is hanging arround 😊
Freedom you did a nice job keeping me busy , confused , and off the streets for a long time.😊 😊

ok here's the deal on three.

There are sewers to the south, east and west.
the ones to the south get you in the upper level to begin with,
the one to the west has the ladder, and the one to the east allows you access to the boss, by letting you get a key.

there is a way to get down in the middle sewer area that you cross over the bridges above, check the statues on the east side pretty closely :O)

the eastern sewers you fall into if you aren't careful :O)

once you have been in all the sewers and done what you have to do, you can use the ladder in the room next to the enterance so you won't have to travel all the way around through the sewers and the block puzzle any more. :O)


Now I am in desperate need of the raft

yep, it's time, you need it in level 4.
remember the guy said you would need a rope or something?
or maybe a hookshot? :O)

I think you have the wrong red tree too, if you're talking about the red tunic you see, there's one on the southroad in Northern Hyrule.

Yes Freedom it was the wrong red tree.
I found myself in level seven Possum ridge 😊
But I finished it now I am going to find the raft in my new red tunic 😊

Hi Freedom, first let me say well done, very good looking quest,fun so far, i've gotten 8 hearts the bow & arrow, the hookshot, large money bag & finished level 1. and still can't find level 2, I was never a scout either (lol ) I went to enchanted forest read the hints there, stll not sure what to do , can you help me plz , two days now i've been following red flowers, and going nowhere
