I can't get out of the fortress now...going in circles...I don't know what to do with the oil, and I can't get out to give the gold piece to the soothsayer. please help, thank you

I cannot find the drawbridge! dark rooms...closets...wine cellar...back to the volcano...in rooms with desk and tv....back up to the destroyed balcony....everywhere....I can't get out of here! Sheesh You can email me more specifics, instead of a spoiler. and thanks again

If the hall goes north and south the direction you want to go is west if you are going west to get to the hall. Now adjust that to the direction that the hall actually goes. You would have to E-mail me I do'nt have your address
