Ok found my way back to the oubliette, got that done. I still cannot find the
key to the chapel in the room where the 2 big spiders are, unless there are two rooms with big spiders in them and I haven't found the second room? I have combed that floor inch by inch, is it by the piles along the one wall? Is it visible or is it blind frobbing? Please help.
The key is in the NW pit where those big spiders are. Look carefully against the wall.That should
open the doors with the 2 skulls on either side.

The chapel key is visible and very close to the wall. I didn't have to kill the spiders but then again I just walked directly to it. ;)

I just finished this FM and gotta say I absolutely loved it! Definitely the best I have played from you so far, John! :) The fortress looks very cool, I wish the original thief had a mission with a fortress like this one!
But there were a few things I didn´t understand, what was the point of them:
-the ghost. Was there anything to do with him? There were some readables about it, but I never found out what to do with it
-the lady I should have rescued. So she wasn´t captured & hold in the castle? Or Garrett just gave up on rescuing her?
My personal favourite were the placed secrets. I´m not a fan of tiny switches, so having to frob loot or statues for getting hidden loot is pretty damn cool! :cheeky: And for the tiny switches and buttons there was always a hint to them, that´s how it should be! :) The only thing I had to look up here was how to move the statue. Was there ever a hint that you have to shoot it with a water arrow or how was I supposed to know that? :confused:
Pretty damn cool mission, thank you very much for this, John!! :)

i got a question has anyone ever seen lord bafford it seems like even in om's/fan mission bafford is never around,i so wonder what he looks like
i think in the cut scene you can see a drawing of him,but never see him in any missions/fan missions,maybe he has a deeper story then me know

Samantha I guess people would figure out how to move the statue because of the water crystal on the floor under the hand. The ghost has no real meaning so you won't really have to worry about it. I just tried to make the mission a little more challenging when the ghost's light would appear and possibly appear at the wrong time. :ebil::D
Thanks for your kind comments. I wasn't sure how well this mission would work out considering how large the castle is, but even for old dark it was playable.

picture you posted is close but to skinny
from thief 1 cutscene #2

I know that cutscene and that is exactly the one I meant when I said "at least that comes close to the original drawing". The same one exists with a fat version, In my link, if you look at the first picture below it that´s the one.

...and this is what I've always imagined Bafford sounds like.

Looks a bit like him too!
