In ''Tower of Doom'', you're given the option of approaching Sable Tower either by going around the mountains right away, or resting up and going through a dwarven tunnel where the red dragon Flamewing is located. Try that second option and the game basically asks you, "Are you sure?" and then, "Are you '''really''' sure?" Keep pressing on and you find out why it was so insistent -- [[BonusBoss Flamewing]] will ''annihilate'' you, most likely.

** Despite Synn having previously being established as a Night Dragon (the Mystara version of a Shadow Dragon), she instead appears as a Red Dragon. From a technical standpoint, it may have been done because a black-scaled dragon would have blended into the black background during her boss battle. From a lore standpoint, its never said ''when'' the events of the games occur in the timeline of Mystara, meaning they could have taken place well before Synn became a Night Dragon.
