I have had it with this game. I am stuck in a fight against the king (who blocks every attack) and three guards (who constantly respawn) which I must have tried at least twenty times. The camera likes to show me the curtains instead of the action, I get knocked down by one enemy and when I try to get back up another strikes me from behind, and I cannot block because I am focused on the last attacker - which means when I try again I am blocking the second attacker while the first strikes me down again. There is no chance to recover health from the fountain because if you move out of the enemies' range they teleport next to you. To top it off, the game does not allow you to save before the battle so if I decide to load up the game and give it another go I have to replay the preceding lengthy section again, being careful not to lose any health or use any rewinds before I get there. I had been enjoying the game, but I have better things to do than bang my head against a brick wall.

For the King. Keep jumping over him with single slashes.
I haven't played the game in a long time so I don't remember what enemies were there but all working possibilities were:
- Jump over, single slash, retrieve
- Jump over, Double slash, retrieve
- Rebound from wall, retrieve
That's all you really need.
