Hi, I've recently begun playing U6, and I'm irked by the Quenton mystery.

I have a question that no one seems to have addressed anywhere - in Stivius' basement, at certain times the place will shake as if there's something big walking around, and Shamino will hear something coming from the North. What is this?

According to some websites, the Quenton mystery is unsolvable by the player, but there is a guy who is going to be charged for the murder.

I've read that, but none of those websites mention what's going on in Stivius' basement.

I think it's just one of the cyclops on the close-by dungeons, behind the walls that separate the dungeons in Ultima 6. I noticed such thing often in the game, it seems that one can hear or notice movements of creatures who even aren't in the same dungeon.

@Grimreaper: you can get the translations for the runes in the game manual, it also has quite a lot of other useful onfo in it.

Also can someone help me out. I'm stuck in dungeon wrong trying to get a map piece. I found a secret room with an electric field blocking the way, I think to switch it off I have to flip the switches on the level in a certain order to turn it off, but i don't know what.

Below me there is also a level but the way down from there is blocked by a portcullis and I cant find a way to open it.

back in the early 90's i used to play it on my 286 all the time. it's not exactly very demanding on resources.
