Paths of Destiny: A Guide to the Mysteries of Ultima V
Paths of Destiny: A Guide to the Mysteries of Ultima V is a 70-page-long clue book to Ultima V. It originally retailed for USD$12.95 and was published in 1988. It was written by Lord Shalineth. The real-life author of the book is unknown.
Description[edit]
Unlike previous clue books, this book goes more into detail and contains maps, hints, and the coordinates for important quests in Ultima V, including, for the first time, a more detailed walkthrough for the game. The maps to the dungeons however again lack any solutions for the dungeon rooms. The town maps are all from an editor and very detailed, while hints are given to each settlement like before. All important and special items are listed as well, and how to get them, as are how to use the shrines to further the quest.
