Help
I started this topic because there seems to be no forum thread dedicated to helping idiots like me who can't solve the game on their own.
My first problem is how to get into Ursylphs prison. I can get to the island, but it's empty. What do I do.
Problem 2: There are slots for 7 characters to join you. Hector, Meleager, Timon, Aethon, Dryas and Ariadne make a total of six. Who is the seventh?

Welcome from me too! No complexes this time (sorry sprong).
Also, try looking at 'Welcome to Cythera', 'Sometime Later' and 'cure for the land king', I believe there are other hints in there that might help you. There are more topics too, but I can only think of those three off the top of my head.

Welcome to the board, Lutrine!
Number 1 seems to have been answered already, so I shall confirm what Jehezekel said about number 2. There are indeed extra character slots; I believe that there are only four people who will adventure with you throughout the game (Hector, Meleager, Aethon, and Timon).

Is Lutrine going to reply? I feel like I'm talking to a.... something that doesn't talk!

(talking to thin air) You know Zita, I'm really starting to worry about Buzzzzy. He gets the weirdest ideas sometimes.

Sorry about this reply taking so long. I've been away for a few days.
Thanks for the answer to question one.
Next question: What is delver?

For a lot of modern games, you'll hear people talk about what engine it uses, such as the Quake engine, the Aurora engine, the Infinity engine, etc. That's the part of the program that handles the mechanics of the game, like drawing windows, rendering landscapes and sprites, detecting collisions, and so on. The detail of the game itself is defined separately, in data files. That way, several games can use the same engine without much modification. For Cythera, the engine used is the Delver engine.

As has been said, Delver is the game engine for Cythera. Like the game, it was created by gandreas (I think anyway) and has not much done with it in some time (as far as I know anyway).

You know when you start Cythera up, how you get that picture of the graveyard? Well, if you can read fast, you will see that one of the gravestones has 'Delver' written on it. Is that gandreas giving us a hint, or a coincidence? (spooky music)

I would imagine that's gandreas's way of identifying the game engine.

To Selax: 
Spoilsport! I thought I was onto something there!
But seriously, isn't it a bit weird he would put it on a gravestone? Why not on one of the trees, or just on top of everything?

Also, notice it says "Welcome to Delver [version]. Enjoy your stay!" on the log when you start playing? And the gravestone is Cythera's logo, so why not put Delver on it?

To CrazyChick: Thank you, I do what I can. 
By the way, are you referring to the screen that you see when you start the Cythera game or the screen that you seen when you start a new character?

The screen when you start the game up, the one after the Ambrosia logo.

Aren't those just slabs of rock as opposed to gravestones?

Actually, both screens, but anyway, look at the logo on the top of the menu and the one on the Games page. It's the gravestone, except with Cythera written on it, and my guess is that the gravestone was Delver's logo, and the intro was Delver's intro, or something like that.
