Appalachian sounding banjo somg from 1901
“I wish I’se a mole in the ground”
I’se = I was.
So waaay later.
Just top off the D2/D3 book with a quick
“You see a vision of a beautiful elf lady, her face fills the sky(?) cavern above. She smiles at you, and your heart feels warm.
Then her smike changes, changes into something else, her mouth stretches to reveal needle. Teeth. Her eyes first become slits that balloon out into multifaceted hexagons(?) like a wasp(?)… the light shifts and you realize her skin is black, her hair is white.
You are frozen. Your blood runs cold. The face sees you, it continues to change… more eyes, the mouth grows mandibles like fangs. The evil is unreal, one might perish to witness it
THEN
A cloud of multicolored light coalescing into the brightness of the sun! The caverns vanish and you find yourself in a bright and sunny glade. A valley, full of life and goodness. The demon has been thwarted(?) .

List of good ones (higher level) from the AD&D era:
Commenter KDA Fan writes -
BEST. MODULE. EVER. Hands down. IMO, anyway. . . . "Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan" and Dungeon Mag's "Mud Sorcerer's Tomb" come close, but not close enough. Lagging a bit behind them, for a tie at third, are "Dwellers of the Forbidden City", "Expedition to the Barrier Peaks", and D1-Q1 (an epic arc of adventures, but which require a lot of heavy lifting in additions by the DM: especially Erelhai-Cinlu in D3 and the worlds reached in Q1). Tomb of Horrors is Tomb of Horrors: more an endgame/test. Various other good games (Beyond the Crystal Caves, Dungeonland/Through the Magic Mirror, Phaoroh, Palace of the Silver Princess, Ghost Tower of Inverness, Isle of Dread, To Find a King, The Tree of Life, Castle Amber, various early Dragon Mag modules, etc) are great, but not quite top flight. . . . A cleric along w/light solves a LOT of logistics problems in WPM, especially as they can AUTOMATICALLY have CONTINUAL Light, so long as they select it (a commonly chosen spell, due to it having multiple uses) as the module is 5th-10th. I always felt Light and Continual Light should be higher level spells, due to ubiquitous usefulness including defensive and offensive potential (CL on eyes is blindness: NASTY!) Always felt the anti-turn amulets were a really cheap-out move, but evil clerics could theoretically make them, I suppose, tho no standard spell allowed it. Can't remember if the amulets were recoverable, but by GAWDS they should have been worth a fortune, if they were. Sir Bluto, the endgame threat of a trap/trick setup involving aquatic vehicles, always unfortunately made me think of Popeye. Did ANYONE EVER trust Quesnef? Theoretically, if the DM allowed the party to be 10ths across the board, a lot of this was pretty easy. BIG difference between a party averaging 7 or 8, and a line of straight 10s. Even Nix and Nox shouldn't be that big a deal (IIRC, didn't the module allow for adding 2 more Efreeti if the party made light work of things? I no longer have it, as nearly everything I had was stolen early this year, so can't check anymore).
A way to cast a few spells at level 1 for magic user (instead of the 1 only). They said using "spell points" instead of a single spell slot was common.
15:45 time on Old School Rules, Judges Guild Y https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=copt1OL-BC8&t=1376s
Time. 6:24

The real historical ones put several heads on poles, carried them around on horses. The harder the foe, the more they wanted the head (and eventually turned into a skull). Pretty insane.
