The Talking Door is one of the more bizarre sights on the sixth level of the Abyss. He appears in Ultima Underworld.

Description[edit]

When the Avatar tried to open a door on that level, the door started to talk and insult the hero. As it turned out, a mage had become so annoyed by his fellow people asking how to cast the spell Sheet Lightning, that he had turned himself into a door to escape their questions. The transformed mage also proved to still be quite arrogant regarding his powers and also would only allow passage after the Avatar asked nicely.

However, even his transformation had helped little to end his annoyance regarding sheet lightning, as people still asked him. He eventually revealed the spell to the Avatar after being asked about it by the hero, just to finally be left alone.

Lore[edit]

Here you -will find one of the Abyss's more interesting features, the Talking Door. I know little of this object, save that it knows some magic, boasting of its mastery of the Sheet Lightning spell.


Trivia[edit]

  • Passage beyond the door is required, since the only EX-rune stone of the game is hidden behind it.
