[Folks]
All right, I got the loot requirement (just barely), and I've slain the monster, I even rescued the child out the secret way, though that wasn't an objective. I can find the jail, but I can't get into any of the cells; and it doesn't seem to be possible to sneak past the guard at the end without using my one inviso potion, which I'm loathe to do unless required -- I may need it later, and it means the best ghost I can get is a "chemical ghost."
What I haven't found is the bloodstone. Am I missing something obvious?

I am in the same spot as you, Dafydd. Are you talking about the guard beyond the jail cells? I KO'd him, and there is nothing back there. Probably missing something obvious, as usual.

Yes, I went back and took a look and discovered there was no "there" there.
Is there anywhere we haven't been? Any forks that we didn't take? It seemed remarkably linear to me. I'm missing one secret... does that bookcase open (in the room beyond the room with all the boxes)? If so, how?
I looked behind the boxes and didn't find anything except a coin stack, nothing to write home about. But there is supposed to be something like 950 loot, and I've only found 800. So I know there's something I haven't found yet.
Presumably, that's where the bloodstone is.
But where?

Check [SPOILER] hanging icicles. :) [/SPOILER]

Okay. I have 900 loot. I got the bloodstone. I killed that monster. And I'm now standing exactly in the spot where I began, holding the little child.
And the mission isn't ending.
I shall try dropping the kid. Mission still doesn't end. I shall try closing the secret door. Mission still not ending.
Did you have any trouble like this when you beta-tested, Nightwalker?

Kind of cool mission, though. No pun intended.
I don't think I've ever nudged translucent burricks before. Or opaque ones, for that matter. I did ghost it, which isn't exactly a difficult feat, as the objectives virtually require ghosting....

I think in the other thread for this mission it's been suggested that it won't complete on Hard and Expert. I've only played on Normal and it ended fine.

It ended fine during betatesting and the author doesn't know why it's not working now. It's no big deal though, as you can just use "Ctrl+Alt+Delete+End" to get the end screen. You've done everything. There was also [SPOILER] 50g. in loot that I didn't find in this version. Some loot changes were made and 50 seems to have vanished, so 900 may be the max you can get, though I'm not positive about that. [/SPOILER]

Yeah, that's what I did and moved on. Now I'm playing House of Random. Not sure what I think about it yet; the weird teleporting is a bit disorienting.
