This is a proof of concept run showcasing Swimfan's recent discovery of an early way into the dungeon with Ad Avis. Apparently the door in the goon room of the castle is actually a real door to the dungeon and if you can glitch past them, magic happens.

A couple of notes here:

1. The original 1.0 floppy version (and ONLY this version) is coded to give you Erana's staff in the final room if you don't have it already. Hence using this version.
2. We don't normally use ScummVM for speedruns, but floppy version 1.0 runs hideously slow in DOSbox. I'm using this ScummVM run as a proof-of-concept for doing this in ScummVM.
3. Since I'm not very practiced at this route or these tricks, it of course takes me multiple attempts to do all the hard things and I'm tripped up by a few minor things. And yet, this is still several minutes faster than the old DOSbox CD version records.
