From the FAQ:
5.16.6) How do I save Cantra?
The long and short of it is, you can't -- the Serpent Isle programmers
forgot to enable that option in the game.
However, the Exult team (see Section 6.2.  is planning to close the
plot-hole through their engine's runtime, leaving the SI usecode intact.
Further details have yet to be released.
I just got to this point in the game. Does this mean that what finally
happends to Cantra is added on by Exult? Did the original Serpent Isle
just allow Batlin to do his worst with no hope for Cantra.
I'm just interested.

Actually I've got another question about Serpent Isle. How can Shamino
have a Palace there when the exodus to Serpent Isle only takes place
between Ultimas 3 and 4? Surely Shamino appears in the earlier Ultimas
(I haven't played them so I don't know). So how can he have left from
SI? And why don't the inhabitants of SI recognize him as being a
citizen?

Shamino is immortal (like Tolkien's Eldar).
He is elder then any SI people - even Ophidians. So, only the spirit of
Beatrix can recognize him.

Shamino had a palace back in U1, before the death of Mondain. He was off
visiting LB when Mondain got killed, so he never could return to the Lands
of Danger and Despair. With him gone and the King of the White Dragon gone
(see SI for details on that), it was then that the Serpents contacted the
people there, and they became the Ophidians.
In short, the vast majority of people of the Serpent Isle don't recognise
Shamino as a native because he left SI generations before their ancestors
left Britannia to go there.

If you want an Exult saved game so you can see what happens exactly I
can send you one.

Thanks for the offer, but the FAQ is very long already, so a simple
note to let people know it's now possible to cure her will be enough.

I see you have changed the FAQ. Speedily done. Just one point ... it
isn't you that actually cures Cantra. Batlin has killed her and when
you go upstairs a monk from Monk Island appears and says that he will
take Cantra's body back to Monk Island so that "life may return where
now only the domain of death holds reign", I forget the exact words ...
all very poetic. Anyway he disappears and takes Cantra's body with him.
If she does get cured or what happends after that to Cantra I have yet
to find out.

Right. Thanks for that -- I haven't actually played SI under Exult
yet, so I wasn't aware of the specifics. I'll amend the text
appropriately.

Don't forget to mention that this is only possible with a (as of yet) patch
which I don't know the download address right now.
The patch is also availlable in the Exult source code.
It's important that people don't think that just playing SI with Exult will
cure her. You have to make the conscious decision that you want to play a
patched SI.

Out of curiosity, since it's presumably just a usecode patch, would it work
on the original? Or does exult have something like PWADs nowadays?
