Ressurection on Lord of Darkness and Clockwork owl question

By Cruor2, in Talisman Rules Questions

A couple of questions which arose in our latest game.

If a Charcter defeats the Lord of Darkness and another Character throws the Restoration or Ressurection spell on the Lord of Darkness, is the first Character entitled to his treasure or is he forced to flee through the portal same as losing and thus without treasure or does he have to face the Lord of Darkness again the following turn.

Also does the Clockwork owl work when using riding horses or the speed spell because that just seems way to overpowered. The Clockwork owl in itself seems a bit overpowered to be honest.

Not sure what Restoration's wording is, but Preservation and Resurrection can't be used to save the LoD, both of those spells use the keyword "Enemy" (see p. 10).

Don't have Dungeon yet, so can't help with the second question without card texts.

You may not cast the Restoration or Resurrection Spell on the Lord of Darkness, as he is a "creature" not an "Enemy".

Also does the Clockwork owl work when using riding horses or the speed spell because that just seems way to overpowered. The Clockwork owl in itself seems a bit overpowered to be honest.

You may not use a Riding Horse or the Speed Spell when using the Clockwork Owl.
