[comp.sys.amiga.games] Need help with Drakkhen

Hello all,

	I just recently started playing games again. It took
me a long time (1year) to get back into it after I sold my beloved
amiga 1000. Eventually, I'll buy an updated amiga especially if I 
hit the NJ lottery. I guess I'll be wating a long time! However,
for now I have to use my IBM. Things are looking good (game wise) on
the IBM. This new version of Drakkhen has VGA 256 color and adlib support.
The graphics and sounds are fantastic. Can't wait to get Wing commander!

Anyway, for those who have mastered Drakkhen I have a problem which
needs a solution. I'm in the castle where the prisoner to be freed
is located. The only way to get to her is to teleport to room "j"
using the teleportation fountain in room "i" ( I believe its room i).
I have all my characters in that room but can't seem to trigger the
teleportation. I tried using the suggestion in the hint book:

"When the true light shines on the water. She will pass. All will follow
if they will. The light must be the last to go"

Not exactly in those words but pretty close. I entered the room with
only light from magic as well as only light from torches ( true light?).
I walked all over the room. Still, I could not get teleported. 

I have most of my characters at level 5 and 6. I did this by continously
fighting creatures in the first castle entrance. I saved the game often
after pressing the wrong symbol (force field triggers) which caused
creatures to come out and fight. Was this the wrong thing to do? Did
I waste valuable time doing this? Any help will be appreciated.
