To escape Wyrm’s Rock Prison, you must speak to the Unusual Skull, also known as Marvin. You may need to boost up your brightness to see this character, as it can be hard to navigate through the darkly lit area.

Marvin will help you out of the jail cell if you answer a couple of riddles correctly, granting you the power of teleportation and invisibility.

Once you begin the riddle challenge, you must select the answers: ‘A Shadow’ and ‘An Anvil’ to complete the questionnaire. Each selection will improve several relationships as the party members approve of your correct choices.

When Marvin is satisfied with your answers, you can teleport out of the cell or stay confined. As you may expect, you’ll need to choose the first option, earning you the Escapist achievement. However, the rest of the party will not travel with you, so you must collect everyone’s items from the nearby Equipment Chests and unlock the doors for them.

After players escape the jail cell, they must get out of the prison itself. First, you can get rid of the guards to unlock the Storage Room at the coordinates ‘X: 78, Y: -731’:

From there, you can go to the cracked wall above the wooden platform.

Due to its Sturdy effect, you must bring it down with a hammer, club, or mace a few times, triggering the area that harnesses a ‘Crack from Prison to Wyrm’s Rock’ entryway. As a result, players will be set free, and they can use a fast travel point to get out of there quicker.
