Stuck on activating the stone.. enough that I registered for the board!

I've tempered my shield. From talking with the Dragon double, I know that I want to activate the Philosopher's Stone. I've talked to the Warden and entered the shed. I can't find anything to do in there. I assume the answer is that I won't survive the activation process (extreme heat), and I can re-enter through the shed, as long as I don't damage any gear.

But I can't figure out how to expose the rock to heat (either the dragon or the machine).


Thanks!

You just need to get the stone closer to the dragon somehow. This one isn't really very complex.

I need hints about the machine, and about tempering my shield.
Spoiler: show
The sorceress tells me I'm about halfway through, and I've met the Warden once in each world.
I've even managed to activate the philosopher's stone (although I die in the process).
But I can't find the machine everyone keeps talking about, or temper my shield.

It sounds like you may just have missed an exit and not found the room you need.

When you're down by the troll's bridge, take a good look around for directions you may not have explored.

Hey, I'm stuck on what seems to be a very early point in the game. I'm having so much fun but I just can't figure this out so I thought I'd swallow my pride and ask:

Spoiler: show
How do you win the dart game? I mean the one in the weapons shop to get the sword? More to the point, how do you get the sword? I smuggled the dart out of the tavern. I've tried a lot of silly tactics even turning the heavy dart orange but I can't crack it

There are several parts to this:
Spoiler: show
First off, you want to be as good at darts as you can be, so keep on practicing at the bar until you're the best!

Spoiler: show
You're on the right track with the color-changing.

Spoiler: show
You want to sneak the red dart into the shop. See anything special about that cloak?

Spoiler: show
Sneak the red dart into the shop by putting it in your pocket. Turn the red dart purple, and hide the heavy dart in your cloak. Enjoy your new sword and shield!

Thank you! I finally solved it. For some reason my timing was off and I kept running out of magic energy before I could complete the final step. Phew.

I am completely stuck at the same point at Rainbow and the hint he got doesn't help me; any chance of another?

Spoiler: show
Is there something you can do between creating the magical marlin and the roc grabbing you? Do you have to get something set up before you make it?

What are you trying to accomplish? (The reason I ask is that your problem might be either that you don't yet know how to accomplish your goal OR that you have the wrong idea of what your goal is.)

I'm pretty confused about that myself; from the rumors in the afterworld I suspect that it's not actually possible to get to the roc's nest, but the roc still seems like it has a purpose. My guess is that I want to use it to fly over the labyrinth so I can avoid the minotaur, but the last chance I get to drop off puts me in the north end of the village, which is not terribly helpful. Plus, if the cottage and jeweler's characters are right I need to get into the jeweler's shop before returning to the cottage, but I haven't made any progress on how to do that.

Perhaps I've missed something? I've got the sword and shield and made the marlin but I have not done anything I don't need to do to accomplish those two goals. Oh yes, I've also got the labyrinth expert to admit that you can't defeat the minotaur.
