 * Find a way into the old Matador settlement
 * Slay some minotaur skeletons (5)
 * Re-assassinate the Matador Chieftain
 * (Optional) Kill the Supreme Pumpkin
 * Kill 80 minotaur skeletons to get bonus 'Minotaur Annihilator's' chest
 * To complete this bonus objective, the entire village must be searched and every minotaur killed
 * Some minotaurs only appear when someone approaches their spawn point, so every location inside the village must be visited to ensure the full count (n.b. there are minotaurs in the enclosure with the chieftain, so the objective will not complete before the end fight begins; you should be at 75 minotaur skeletons slain.)

 * Speak to Dorris (A)
 * Head to the necromancer (B), to the west of Dorris
 * Continue west then south to the Pumpkin Grove to fight the Supreme Pumpkin (C, in swamp at south west of the map)
 * Either:
 * Use DDoor to return to Dorris (A) and follow the path to the east gate (E) of the village OR
 * Use the ballista (D) on the hill above the Supreme Pumpkin to fire the party across to near the east gate (E) of the village
 * This ballista will sometimes land party members inside the village, just outside the Chieftan's enclosure (F)
 * Kill the vines in front of the gate to open it
 * Head to the Minotaur Chieftain's enclosure (F, at the south end of the village at the top of a ramp)
 * When the Chieftain arrives, the gate closes, trapping the party - Entry is allowed, but noone may leave until the Chieftain is dead
 * There are enough Minotaur Skeletons (5) in the enclosure with the Chieftain to fulfil the "Slay some minotaur skeletons" star objective if the party reached the enclosure without slaying any Minotaur Skeletons
 * After the Chieftain is dead, the ballista (D) on the wall in the north east corner of the chieftain's enclosure (F) can take the party back to Dorris (A) to collect the rewards
 * 1 for killing the Supreme Pumpkin (behind tree near fight)
 * 1 in Chieftain's Enclosure, once the Chieftain is dead
 * 1 with Dorris at end
 * 1 bonus chest with Dorris at end, for killing some minotaur skeletons
 * 1 Minotaur Annihilator's bonus chest with Dorris at end, if the party kept on killing more minotaur skeletons until all 80 were dead (again)
