There's been mention of a candle which I seem to be needing just at this point (the newly unsealed crypt room is the only area where there's still anything left to interact with), but I haven't come across any candles anywhere :confused: Hint please?

@ DarkMax - those are correct I believe. I think you'll need to wait for Haplo to come back for suggestions on what to do.
@ poronty - from what you say about the crypt being all that's left to interact with, I'm guessing you've done the puzzle with the beams in one of the rooms that was behind a seal in the cloister? If so, you should have the glyphs to use which will open a hatch to the candle you need. Come back if you haven't done that puzzle yet.

I was having some fun with this mission until I read a plaque that said I need some essence of ether, now I'm just running around blindly. Can someone give me a nudge?
Thanks for the great mission Haplo! :thumb:

If you've opened the seals, then there are 3 rooms to explore in the attic area above the hall with the ghost/cloisters area.

Thanks, somehow I forgot to check out the entrance to the rooms where the greenish flame and the strange object is located. But now I'm stuck again: I have an Ether, a Life Crystal and an Artifact, and there's a frobbable candle above the contraption. I understand that I need some ashes, and there's also that crypt where I need to place something in a plate, but I can't seem to figure out the next step... I must be really slow today because I'm just not feeling the flow of this mission, there's no sense of plot continuity for me at all.

Thanks!

I'm not sure if it helps but the glyphs just worked fine for me.

@ poronty. You need the Holy Ash found in a room that was behind a seal on the perimeter to complete that frobbable lamp puzzle. There is a plaque on the lamp room wall telling you what order to do things in. You'll get to the crypt candle you mentioned earlier after you've done everything to do with this puzzle.
@ Fuod - possibly because it looks rather similar to a well-known junk item. :D

Okay, I managed to finish the mission with the hints, thanks! Pretty much the source of my problems was that due to my frustration and annoyance with all the stupid enemies getting in my way everywhere I didn't check out two of the formerly sealed doors. Basically from the moment the whole area got inundated with those undead monk things, I just wanted the whole thing to end as quickly as possible...
[Also, too bad I will never get to see the stats screen and find out how well I did with the secrets and all, since the game routinely crashes after the mission completes :grr: Running Win 7 64 bit, tried to install the video codec but it doesn't work, so I deleted all the avi files from the movies folder, but the game still crashes. Oh well, can't have everything]

@ poronty, I can't help with the crashing I'm afraid, but if it will help, you could send me your final save game and I could hopefully load it and have a look at your stats.

mmm better don't break your head thinking about my problem Ali :p I better restart the mission and play it again :cool:
