The {{Hero 1}} can accept the Dragonlord's offer to rule half the world; what happens after that differs between versions. In the Famicom/NES release, the Dragonlord mocks the Hero while the menus turn red, the screen fades to black, and the game freezes, implying the Hero has died. In the Japanese Famicom version, the Dragonlord also provides a special [[Spell of Restoration]] that starts the player off at level 1 with no equipment. In the remakes, accepting the Dragonlord's offer merely causes the hero to faint and reappear outside [[Tantegel Castle]].
