Hourglass in SI bugged?

[Syragar]

Hey everyone! I've been thoroughly enjoying Exult. I've recently finished The Black Gate, and am currently playing Serpent Isle. I'm playing through the GOG version of the game. I'm playing Silver Seed and had Iolo die in the fight against the liche. I've tried using the hourglass, and it doesn't work. It just makes a funny noise. I've tried using it from my pack... and I've tried placing it on the ground and using it. While on the ground, it glows green when I click it, but it makes the same odd noise. I've tried using it all over his corpse and it doesn't work. I remember playing this game many years ago (although I didn't have Silver Seed back then), and I don't remember the hourglass not working. Is it something to do with Silver Seed? Am I doing something wrong?

I tried loading a few old save files before I went to Serpent Fang and noticed that the hourglass still makes that strange noise whenever I click it. The monk never comes. Although that may be because nobody in my party is dead. I don't know. Any thoughts?

Thanks!

In the Silver Seed you need to haul the bodies back to the healer for resurrection. The hourglass does not work in that expansion area. This is by design, as the Silver Seed area is in the past.

Ah. I wondered if that might be the case... as this is my first time playing the Silver Seed expansion. It makes sense... because, as you say, it's in the past. I didn't know the healer at the Serpent Fang would resurrect. I thought he would only heal.

Thanks!
