Sounds like The Eternal Dagger. The Phantasie series (I-III) and The
Wizard's Crown are other possibilities; but, 'Eternal Dagger fits your info
best. Also, it is a very good game-- among the top three or four adventures
ever released by SSI for Apple II.
Eternal Dagger is on TikTok ( http://abandonwarering.com/tiktok/ click on
"Adventures"), the Apple Emulator's Wargame Pages site (main URL is
http://home.earthlink.net/~evin1/a2war/ go to SSI Page 2), and, almost
certainly, on the Asimov archive (check RPG and Adventure game image folders
ftp://ftp.apple.asimov.net/pub/apple_II/ ).
