@ Dafydd: The first key is not important. You can find it near statue with lock, above church door and it opens the double church-doors
For the statue-lock, you need the keeper key. Remember seeing a dead person on the floor with flies around. Go and check him.
After opening that lock, look out for a talisman and check that buiding very closely. The keeper key opens also another door.

Thanks for the help, guys; I finished -- 50 short, like everybody else :rolleyes: -- but the hardest thing was figuring out that the stupid Orz key unlocked the talisman holder; I kept looking for a talisman!
Typical JIS. I sort of liked the elevator mission; this one just kept annoying me.
But it's finished, and I do appreciate the help. Thanks again!

Smithpd,
I'm outside the room of the picture you posted. How do I get in there? I can't get past the double doors where the lady is locked in. I'm playing on normal. Also, how can I open the picture that highlights in the room where I had to open with water arrow? Where is my sword? Can you give me some clues???
Thanxs,
Hope Vincent:confused: :wot: :p

None of the parchments can be frobbed. Apparently JIS got some negative feedback at some point about providing only Japanese texts. He had no way to translate them, so he eliminated all texts. There is no Books folder. Too bad, because someone here could have translated them.
I've been quietly translating all of JIS's readables all this while ... (but have to pause while I study for the bar exam). Is there an older version where I can get the texts? I can just stick the scrolls back into this version when I'm finished, how does that sound? Have to talk to JIS about it, too, maybe.

I have not removed the old version from thiefmissions.com; it should show up as an additional file under the new version.

[SPOILER]Is there a locked door between the room you are in and the chapel in the picture? If so, then that is just a view, and you have a very long route around. To explain it in detail would be to provide a walkthrough.[/SPOILER]

[SPOILER]I don't remember exactly, but you can find a key in some remote place.[/SPOILER]I got stumped by that for a while, even in the second playing.

[SPOILER]There is a frobbable book nearby.[/SPOILER]That also took me a while to find.

I just loaded the old version and found a books folder, so there is promise. Thanks for keeping the old one, Jason.

As noted above, the old version has a books folder. Maybe that is sufficient. I am sure JIS would not mind small additions and improvements, especially if it restores his intent. Vlad Midnight and I have done it before, with permission, with Mineshock. Send me an e-mail or PM with your e-mail address, and I'll e-mail you back and put you in touch with JIS. Being able to communicate with JIS directly in Japanese should be a big help.

Smithpd,
I finally finished after I frobbed that picture until I got the key to those double doors. It was hell before and after that. I didn't have much life left so I left my eye there after I killed the first haunt. I enjoyed this fm, but I can easily say it is the hardest one ever. I didn't really understand the ending???
Thanxs,
Hope Vincent:p :weird: :)

Alright - somebody needs to make a walkthrough for this one - you guys are all talking about places I haven't even been too - and I've gotten all the way to the ungazi pai (keeper medallion) that summons the haunts!
