Talk:Mondain

Mondain and time machines
Thanks to his hidden fortress in the Time of Legends,...

The Time of Legends only existed in Ultima II. Mondain's fortress was 1000 years into Sosaria's past. You learn this from one of the bartender's hints when buying drinks at the pub:

''Thou had best know that over 1000 years ago, Mondain the Wizard created an evil gem. With this gem, he is immortal and cannot be defeated. The quest of --Ultima-- is to traverse the lands in search of a time machine. Upon finding such a device, thou should go back in time to the days before Mondain created the evil gem and destroy him!''

Rewrite
I just rewrote the Mondain article to be a bit more readable. There was also a tale or two that I never remember from the games, particularly the part about Minax taking Mondain's skull and empowering it. I also removed some information that I found curious - Mondain's father's name (allegedly Wolfgang) and a reference to him being his second son. The former does sound familiar but I cannot find any source from Ultima that mentions this information. If someone can confirm this however I'd be willing to re-add it. --Voyd 21:55, December 10, 2009 (UTC)
