    i reckon the medal spell could have been like the arken spell of series 7! a holding spell! either that or some kind of warrior!

    But....well i think that But was given away in a clue by Hordriss, he said one spell is very powerful and the other quite humble. The team took the long spell as being teh powerful one! It could have been a giant goat coming to BUTT him out of the way! lol

        Ah, but TRANSFORMATION was the powerful one, Hordriss was very specific about it. His exact words were; -

        "One is most powerful and is called TRANSFORMATION. The other is quite humble and is called BUT."

          yes that is true but they were wrong though! they needed BUT to get past mogdred! To be honest if you were about to get killed you wouldnt try casting a spell that is 14 letters long! lol

            Personally, I sympathise with the team in their error. If I had Mogdred 'in person' bearing down on my dungeoneer, I doubt that in my panic-stricken state I'd have opted for the spell which I'd been told (by someone of high authority) was 'humble', even if time were a factor. The spell choice facing Dickon's team a few quests later - FIRE or OPPOSITE against Malice - was arguably more straightforward.

              My thoughts exactly. I thought it was a bit of a mean trick really; not that I think it should have been left out, but it's a little rough that only Helen's team wound up in that kind of situation.

                TRANSFORMATION:

                Has anyone mentioned alchemy?

                I'll bet there was a guard who needed to be bribed somewhere further along the quest, and the next room after Mogdred contained a bar of lead.

                    I often wonder what the "Power to Rule" potion would've done (I think it was from Se7?)

                      Transformation - Maybe it was intended to turn a worthless artefact into the quest object?

                      But - ...Maybe it was as in the Scottish use of the term for a front or outer room, or a kitchen especially in a cottage?

                      Shovel (Or was it Spade?) - clonk, like Anvil.

                      Medal - Make her move faster, like a medal winning Olympian, maybe?

                        I reckon medla spell wouldn't have spelt medal but would have given the name of something else but was in the form of a mdela fo picking up sake

                          I have always lived in Scotland and never heard the word "but" used to mean room or kitchen in my whole life!

                          The only connection I can think of is "But'n'ben" which is a long unused word for a small 2-roomed holiday cottage (and I only know this from a history lesson!), where "but" did indeed refer to the kitchen and "ben" referred to the living room.

                          But as far as I know it's only ever been used as a phrase: But'n'Ben. The word "but" on it's own is not used to mean room or kitchen or anything other than the usual meaning of "but" in modern English

                          And even if it was, that's kind of ambiguous for a spell - even for Knightmare!!

                          I suspect "but" quite simply would have made Mogdred change his mind. He was all set to kill, "But... maybe I'll let you live a little longer."

                            Following the Scottish connection, maybe when the BUT spell was cast, a drunk Glaswegian would have materialised and honoured Mogdred with a Glasgow 'kiss'.

                              That would have been great

                                Distant relative of McGrew perhaps?

                                  Well it's possible, but take it from someone who used to live in Glasgow, it's a lo-o-o-o-o-o-o-ong walk from the Highlands...
