infact now i think about it it looks like the hero cant even jump far enough across the river to even land on log so this task is looking more and more impossible :\

Uh, really? My mage just jumped it.

Now, if you had Glide, that would make sense, but Reversal?

Hmmm, that's definitely a bug. Casting Reversal shouldn't allow you to walk over the water like that. We'll get that fixed.

To cross the river, you need to stand up near the waterfall, on the mossy bank.

Yeah, if Reversal lets you Glide, I demand to be allowed to have the Dark Master as my WIT sponsor as I can prove I can get out of the swamp safely ;)

BTW, this reminds me, as a magic user, I could just pass the winds without using a Force Bolt to seal it off. I had to really walk near the wind cave thingy before anything happened.

I don't know if it's intentional, or if it was like that in the original, or if it's a bug.

Well, the main effect of the air hole isn't so much in the screen with the river, but on the upper floor of the screen where you first entered. If the air hole isn't blocked and you try to make it to the fire chamber, the wind will blow you back or cause you to fall.
