The dragon's lair | The Magic Mirror King's Quest Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
At the bottom, you notice a short fragment of an underground river, over which there is a boat with spikes floating. To get to the other bank safely, you need to keep hiding in recesses on both sides of the river bed. Easy thing.
The next challenge is to get to the dragon's lair. As you go ahead, you will have to walk over a heap of bones, which wakes up the monster. As quickly as possible, hide into the nearby bed, to wait through the threat.
On your path, you will run up into lots of bones and skulls again and this time you need to walk around them carefully. If you succeed, a bed will drop from the ceiling, which wakes up the dragon again. Hide in the bed as quickly as possible.
If you approach the dragon now, you will be immediately devoured. However, thanks to this, you will unlock another Steam achievement: "In The Mouth of Danger". Unfortunately, this will have you start the scene over again (you start over at the moment after crossing the river).
Instead of heading into the dragon's mouth, it is a better solution to use the ladder leaning against the wall on the left.
After you get to the top, walk around the erected bridge, where there is nothing to do yet. Run right.
At the heap of stones, you find another dead adventurer, with a bow on him. Of course, take it with you to put it to a good use.
This automatically initiates the first-person view and you will have to aim into the spinning wheel at the other side of the chasm. There is nothing difficult about it - simply aim at the correct spot (it then turns into a characteristic circle) and shoot with the left mouse button.
After the bridge drops down, walk over it to get to the wooden structure. Just like the rest of them, this one wobbles whenever you move. Do not worry, though, because you are safe.
It high time that you took the final step. Approach the spinning wheel and use it twice for the platform with meat drop onto the heap of bones. Then, use the bell to wake up the dragon.
After the dragon digs into the meat, give the spinning wheel another spin, and jump onto the platform with meat. This way, you get near the Magic Mirror. Interacting with it starts a cutscene.
