Morlock is a mage of the Seers of the Moonstone living on the sixth level of the Abyss. He appears in Ultima Underworld.

Description[edit]

At first the Avatar was confused when meeting him, since Morlock seemed to expect something to be delivered to him. However, after talking with Bronus, the Avatar gave Morlock the book received from the other mage. Morlock strangely congratulated the Avatar on slaying an eight-headed fire hydra, something on which the Avatar corrected the mage. Morlock thus revealed that it had been the second part of the test of Honesty, a test the Avatar had passed, and he felt that the hero thus deserved the Book of Honesty. His hints about a hourglass and a key proved to be a code for rooms shaped like that.

Later, Garamon rescued him when the volcano erupted.

Lore[edit]

Here resides another mage, named Morlock. His own magical researches are stalled, for he awaits an important book now held by Bronus. It is said of Morlock that he knows the true location of Sir Cabirus' Book of Honesty, but he is too busy with his researches to do anything worrisome with it.
