I havent seen an Alter in there, but there is an Altar on the second level, towards the top of the screen.
First, map points: I'm calling N what on your and my screen is really NE (Much as it is in UO and some other games). So with that as reference... The King is a straight shot, N after you negotiate that one wall near the entrance. If you travel as if to visit the King (you are heading North after that wall mentioned above), take the first left and continue going in a generally West direction. There is a dog leg or two, since it is not a straight path. You should find the altar after a couple of screens. <font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: Odi on 2002-01-07 04:59 ]</font>
