OK I give, please advise....[SPOILER]I've gotten as far as the Lady's Mansion and have vault key now but I cannot figure out how to get up to the "attic" for the third Talisman? The guard patrolling up on that ledge is the only one still kicking :) I'd like to try and pickpocket him but cannot see anyway to get over where he is and found no way inside to get there. The only possiblity I can see at all is to somehow get outside one of those guard shacks on the side up top and get on a ledge and walk around to it. Is that right or is there some other way I missed?[/SPOILER]
Thanks for the boost up :D Ta and Good Hunting!

Fire Eater - you have the right idea - at each end of the balcony there is a ladder up to the guard shack.
[SPOILER]Deal with the archer, hop onto the ledge and walk round (the rh side is the shortest route). If you get the Chapel Key from the vault, you can also get into the chapel via the door at the end of the corridor up the stairs from the bar.[/SPOILER]

ffox..oh, oh...I didn't find a Chapel key and I still have a Vault key?
[SPOILER]Actually going the way around on the left side as you face Mansion turned out pretty well (I had gone to both earlier and dispensed with those two guards cause I figured I needed to do more eleminations first and to see what I needed to take care of,etc.) I used that little room across from the open window to my advantage and had set a couple of traps on that walkway after taking care of patroling guard there and then started my war from there :) I did lay one mine the first time but got snagged by one guard that came over to my side :eek: not realizing he could do that, so the next time I put a second one down and it all ended well. At one point I only had Mage left and thought I could shoot a fire arrow at her from that window but it only stunned her and she got one shot at me, then she came out and around but I had my gas arrow ready then :D[/SPOILER]
EDIT: After reading and thinking somemore about that Vault key thing...
[SPOILER]I went back over and searched again in the Den and after I found I could stick my head in the bookcases and turned around, I found the switch :) So now I'm about to do some target practice again at some spiders I hear inside...eyahhh! :D Thanks for the help though and I'm off again....till next time! I have a bad feeling about the Cemetary business though :( I don't like undeads, etc.![/SPOILER]
Ta and Good Hunting!

Thanks BBB for a fun mission!
I finished the whole mission, all Talismans found and returned etc.

Thief Addict[SPOILER]In the Vault, which is in a secret room off the Den (door to right of the bar). The Den Key is in a secret room off Lady Amalia's bedroom. [/SPOILER]
Thief Addict on 23/3/2004 at 22:22
Thanks ffox,
But I think I already found that secret area.
[SPOILER]I found the secret stash of loot in the "wall vault" by pushing a button on the side of the desk.[/SPOILER] There was also a book inside, listing the loot.
Are you talking about another "vault". Please explain.

[SPOILER]You are talking about the small one in Tombstone Co. offices. I'm talking about a large walk-in vault in the mansion. Go to Lady Amalia's bedroom and look behind the bureau - take it from there. [/SPOILER]

I have all the talismans can someone tell me where the temple is? :)
ffox on 23/3/2004 at 23:17
shadows [SPOILER]It's above the place where you found the Talisman of Darkness. Mantle onto the roof of the small hut and jump across.[/SPOILER]
