Here are a couple of questions: (*SPOILER ALERT*) When one is in the vault and the guard comes in and asks who you are, you can answer "Croesus" and he goes away. However, he takes the door with him, so I don't see how this helps. Is there any way out other than teleportation? Also, is there any way to replace the functionality of a ring of teleport control?

The corridor created by the guard is a "pseudo-corridor"; it's only there when the guard leads you out. >When one is in the vault and the guard comes in [...] >you can answer "Croesus" and he goes away.

(wand or picky-axe) It seems to me that if you already had a means of digging out you shouldn't even wait for the Guard, just take the gold and high-tail outta there! Unless the guard will come looking for you. Of course, I haven't had the opportunity to take a wand of digging or a pick-axe into the vault. I'm always a teleporter with or without the ring of teleport control. ...You hit the Nymph.
