Hey ho!
Some questions and answers that will tell you something more about the Tales of the Deep Gardens. Hope they are helpful!


Where does the quest start?
-It starts in the park next to the Council of Six building.


Can I play solo with this game?
-It is definitely not recommended! If you play as a mage/warrior it is possible, but still not recommended. You will need both magic users and weapon users.


When I should start this quest?
-I suggest when you are at a higher level than 10-11, but that's only my opnion. It is possible to gain an innate abillity as a reward, so if you replace an NPC after completing the quest, the "new" NPC won't have the ability the previous NPC was given in the Gardens. I advise you to play it with the NPCs you will have for the most of the game (well, if it's possible.)


Do I need to start a new game to play this mod?
-It is recommended but not necessary.
A little edit. In the newer versions (v3.0 <) you don't have to start a new game. Everything should work fine.


Do you have permission of MichaelO and Lunatic Soul for using their work?
-Yes. I asked them before using their work.


Does this mod add any NPC, romance etc.?
-No NPC. There is something that could be called a romantic encounter, but it's a different from those you may know because of oneiric nature of the mod.


Can I write a crossmod for this mod?
-Sure, but let me know about it.


Will there be more projects from Colours of Infinity series?
-I hope so! There will be an NPC, a new village to visit... though the plans may change.


Are there any incompatibilities or other kind of problems?
-This mod should be compatible with all WeiDU mods. There may be one littleproblem, though; it seems that Barney - a person from Five Flagons - does not appear in some versions of the game. Because of that his quest item can be bought at Bel's store (outside of the Five Flagons Inn, at the merchant's corner).


Did you do this everything by yourself?
-Of course not! Do not be silly. It is my project, I am the main author, but without help of proofreaders, artists and SHS Staff this mod would never get finished! The mod was also slightly inspired by game called 'Tension'.


Is ToB required for playing this mod?
-Yes, ToB is required.

What is Innershade?
It's a brand new village you may visit after finding a map.

Where I can find the map?
If you've started a new game then visit Ribald or kill a mugger in the Bridge district. If you have already reached an advanced stage of the game, look for a new mugger in the south of the Promenade.

The voice of XXX is strange... so slow and... just strange!
Sometimes decoding does something strange and this is the result. It's not my fault or yours. It happens haphazardly.

Is there any crossmod? Can I write crossmod for my mod?
Yes, there is crossmod with TotDG. What's more you may find a changed text screen in Kwiat_W's GUI.
Of course you may write crossmod with your mod ? crossmod contents are great! Just let me know. The best idea is to put it in your mod or in G3 Crossmod.

Who helped you?
A pack of really great people! Check ReadMe. Without them the mod would never have been released! Thx, guys!

Are there any known incompatibilities?
The main part should be compatibile with everything and the same goes for NPCs' reactions. Adding to worldmap should work fine too. New animations and adding map icons may be incompatible with mods that add animation in place of insignificant, existing animation slots, and icons may be incompatibile with mods that change mapicons.bam.

Why didn't you use Infinity Animations?
'Cause authors are working on exporting P:T animations with better results. Sorry! This may be changed in future.

Who is Yvette?
-She's a new NPC - a priestress of Sune and a thief -, but she will join only those she can romance.

Why she's here, among quest mods, while she's a NPC?
-She's a CoI mod series part and what's more, as you chould have read in first question, she won't join the team if conditions aren't met.

May I include a crossmod with Yvette in my own mod?
-I guess yes. Just let me know.

About other authors...
-Yeah, there were other people who really helped me! I am the main author, but without my friends, I would have never released the mod.

Is the mod compatible with other projects?
-It should be compatible with most WeiDU mods, but I am unable to check every possible configuration. I doubt anyone could do such a thing!

Is The White Queen a quest mod?
-Yes, it is.

Is it similar to TotDG, Innershade or Yvette Romance?
-I try to make my mods at least a bit different. It may remind my other mods a bit, but this particular mod includes more fights. I got some response and some peoples would rather experience more fights and new areas than riddles and that kind of stuff. So I decided to create something they would enjoy.

How can I start the quest?
-Find a man called Galoump (or Galoomp?) on the Promenade. He's a book merchant and he has a new tome you can buy.

Does the mod include any new joinable NPCs?
-No.

May I include a crossmod with this quest in my own mod?
-Yeah, I guess. Just let me know.

Is 'I shall never forget' a quest mod?
-Yes, it is, but it's smaller than other CoI mods. It's a mini-quest.

Is it similar to TotDG, Innershade or The White Queen?
-Maybe. It may seem a bit more simple. I was to make it bigger, but because of my studies I had to stop. Some may like the mod, though! It should provide some fun to those who believe there should be a new quest that takes place in Athkatla. It's also a new possiblity of getting the money for one of the guilds.

How can I start the quest?
-Check the Goverment Districs, but keep in mind that it won't start if you have already visited the district in the game (in the save). If you're in the advanced state of the game, you may need to start a new game.

Does the mod include any new joinable NPCs?
-No.

May I include a crossmod with this quest in my own mod?
-Yeah, I guess. Just let me know.
