Continue down the hall - you'll pass the game room. Don't go in there yet. Go through the next door into the bedroom. Go through the bedroom and use the balcony key on the double doors. Walk across the balcony and into the next bedroom. Open the door next to the balcony door. Wait for the worker robot to pass by, then hit it with a water arrow. Crouch and walk around the corner until you're behind the bar. Knock out the bartender, then do the same to the drunk guard. Stash both bodies behind the bar. There's a patrolling guard on this floor as well, so be on the lookout for him.
Search the tables for coins and take the gold bottle off the bar. Continue down the next hallway. Ignore the room with pool in it for now. You must disable the security system. At the end of the hall is the security system power room. Flip the switch, then go back to the room with the pool. Jump in the pool and grab the silver gear at the bottom of the steps.
Take the loot from the tables. You should have hit the loot requirement for any difficulty at this point. If not, don't worry. There's more to come.
The silver gear can be found in this pool of water. |
Go back down the hall and use the estate key to unlock the door to the weapons room. Grab everything and leave. Use the bronze gear on the metal door and go through. You'll come to an alcove at the bottom of a staircase. The guards are panicking because Truart has been murdered. Hide and wait for them to pass by, then go up the stairs.
The Third Floor
You're objectives have changed; you must now find a clue to the identity of the murderer.
At the top of the third-floor stairs, turn left. Go through the double doors into the bedroom. Search the mantle for loot, then go through either of the doors opposite the fireplace into the next area. There's a small closet with a ladder to the attic here. There's a slow-fall potion in a chest if you want it.
Use the balcony key on the double doors, then run across the balcony. Move very slowly in Truart's room - there's a number of guards just outside. Find the key ring near the bed, then look near the desk for a note and a bronze gear. Leave the bedroom, go across the balcony, and head down to the second floor.
Find the key ring near Truart's bed. |
Getting Out
If you've knocked out most of the guards you've encountered, getting out should be easy. Go down to the second floor, then unlock the metal door nearby with the bronze gear. Run down the stairs to the first floor.
Go back to the locked servants' room. Unlock it with the estate key. Knock out the sleeping man, then pick the lock on the closet. Go through the passage until you come to a tapestry. Move the tapestry and walk into the chapel. While in the chapel, you may want to explore a secret area. Shoot a broadhead arrow into the hole near the hammer statue. Head into the passage to find a valuable golden skull - but beware, it's guarded by a haunt.
Exit the chapel into the yard. Run past the front entrance and through the gate.
