He might buy it. He might not. If he doesn’t, you still have a fight on your

Orc Leader. The Orc leader has established his command post here in what
used to be Rolands library. When you burst into the room, you’ll have to
explain your business. You can fight, bluff, or leave. Choosing to leave gets
you out of the situation without getting hurt. The Orcs kick you out of the
room, and you’ll continue wandering around the Manor as if nothing happened.
You might want to choose this option if you like Orc bashing and want to build
up your fighter and Mage skills. You’ll never find Roland or the Ruby this
way, though. If you choose to bluff, your chance of success is random, though
it can be influenced by your Rogue skill. If the bluff fails, then you’ll have
to fight the Orc leader and his minions. (Of course, thats what you’ve been
doing all along. But the Orc leader is tougher than the other Orcs.) If the
bluff succeeds, then the Orc leader leaves without a fight- Choosing to fight
yields the obvious results. The result is the same as failing a bluff. You’ll
fight the Orc leader and two of his goonies.
Touching this wall opens a passageway to Roland’s hiding place.

Scotia! Combine the Ruby of Truth (found in the Swamp) with the Shard of
Truth, the ring give to you by King Richard in Castle Cimmeria, Level 2,
Reference 35. (This is hinted to with the note you found in Roland's Mannor,
which is why he was killed for he found out how to destroy Scotia's Nether
Mask ring.) To do this, click one on top of the other in your inventory. When
Scotia appears, click the newly created Whole Truth on a character portrait.
When you use the Whole Truth like this, you’ll have destroyed the Nether Mask,
which you must do in order to defeat Scotia. If you fail to use the Whole
Truth in time, Scotia will begin fighting you, using the Nether Mask to
transform into powerful, hideous monsters. The only opportunities to use the
Whole Truth to destroy the Nether Mask come when Scotia is in the middle of
these transformations. You see a very visable blue glow around Scotia, and
that is the time to use the Whole Truth. After you’ve done so correctly, the
Whole Truth will vanish, she will permanently return to her original hag form,
and you can defeat her in combat! Note that after Scotia makes her third
and final transformation to the Executioner Beast, she is virtually
unbeatable. Use the Whole Truth on her before she reaches this stage! She is
tough. Run to a corner and sleep if you need to. Save the game before you
enter her room.
