The pygmies took most of our people back to their village. Who knows what evil they're up to? <name>, you have to go up there and free all of the captives before the pygmies work their voodoo on them! Izzy's already up near Oomlot Village to the southeast.
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
The Oomlot leader, Yngwie, is too powerful to be left alive. He's barking nonsense from the raised west side of the village, across the rope bridge. Go up there and get him before he sends the rest of the village against us. Piece of cake!
The Lost Isles has 72 steps, from Don't Go Into the Light! to Message for Saurfang.
