I have a problem in "The Vigil":
There is a tomb where some soldiers are standing. When I enter this zone the soldiers go out and a door closes. I'm inside and have found the diary. There is also a water arrow and a fire arrow. I do not find a way out. I tried to shoot both arrows against the statue and against the door, but it does not open. How can I get out? I don't understand the note in that room...

The plaque's text tells you how to get out: [SPOILER]Shoot a water arrow at the keeper statue (thirst for knowledge taken literally; it's the one with the keyhole shield).
And shoot a fire arrow at the statue holding a hammer in both its hand.[/SPOILER]

Hey, at least you got in the tomb. The very first time I played this mission, I patiently waited for the funeral party to file out, the door closed, and... that was it. Door closed. No way in. Hmph. :nono:

Your english is MUCH better than my spanish.:cheeky:
The key to the puzzle lies in the staues and the arrows. Read the book carefully for clues as to the relationship between them.
[spoiler] I remember a line that went kind of like. "...and he thirsts for knowledge.." so that ment use water. So it works like that.[/spoiler]

Welcome to the forum! You English is just fine, by the way. :)
Just in case you want something more specific, here's a TOTAL SPOILER about how to solve this puzzle: [SPOILER] You need to read the plaques on the holders carefully then go out to the graveyard and find the headstones that match the notes on the holders. One is a courtesan who died by being crushed by a rock. Coincidentally, there's a nice big rock lying nearby. Take the rock and throw it at the courtesan's headstone. An item will appear above the headstone. You take it then go on to the headstone of the Treasurer. Shoot his headstone with a water arrow and another item will appear. The last headstone you need to find belongs to the Knight Champion. Shoot a fire arrow at his headstone and collect the last item. Now go back inside and "use" each item on the appropriate holder. You'll have no trouble seeing what happens. [/SPOILER] :)

thanks a lot.
But, I've escape the tomb by the secret passage without solve the three "angels" puzzle, so now I'm in the sewers with a lot of hammerites all around. Could I come back to the graveyard to solve the puzzle when I leave the sewers? Or, must I restart?
Thanks.
Urbatain.

Keep going. You can get back there after you finish the rest of the mission with no problem. :)

C'mon, there's got to be someone who's found all the loot, right?
