I'm so lost that I don't know where this is, but there's a place
before the room with the ax and four knights.  Out in the hallway
right before that are two small wizards and three red cross buttons
(which I never did figure out in DM, by the way).  I killed a knight
out there and when I threw its armor down the hall way the screen
showed the piece of armor PLUS a sword each time.  BUG.
I've got an Atari 1040 ST with a DeskCart cartridge with the orignal
TOS release.  Nothing else fancy about it.

Where do I get water?  I'm fighting a dragon and my team's about to
die for lack of water.  (I knocked off two worms down there.)
