Gorgeous mission. Loved the acrobatics to reach all those hidden places and the concept of a part of the city unreachable by most. Crazy Crate Guy! Well done!

Thank you Melan for a truly memorable thief experience! Great atmosphere, terrific rooftop challenges, a remarkable first mission. Very much looking forward to your next one.

Wow--I've spent five and a half game-hours in this mission (and probably at least two hours more than that counting unsaved game-play time)...this is one of the most immersive, complicated, and interesting missions I've played. Well done!
I had some of the same questions as a lot of other people, but at least some of my questions were answered elsewhere in this thread. I do still have a few, though, that I don't see an answer to.
First of all, I've found multiple bottles of holy water, which I can only imagine is in the mission because there are undead to use it on. Thanks to this thread, I now know how to wake up the entombed sorcerer, but I can't imagine he's the only reason for the two or three holy water bottles I've found--are there any other undead, and if so, how can I find them?
Secondly, I've gotten to the Keywell area and gotten the loot there, but in the process I had to use two speed potions. I used one to make the jump from one of the statues above the Seeing Square to the Keeper statue in order to access the Keywell area, and I used the other to make the jump onto the raised platform with the ladder in the Keywell area where you can use rope arrows on the rafter ends to get to the roof of the Keeper compound where you find the loot. Given that I only had two speed potions to begin with, that means I'm stuck in the Keywell area because I can't make the jump back from the Keeper statue to the other statues above the Seeing Square because I can't make the jump without another speed potion. Is there another speed potion that I'm missing, or is there a way to accomplish what I did without using one or both speed potions?
And finally, I saw someone ask this question a page or two back but I didn't see an answer--is it possible to open the "unopenable crate" in the Crazy Crate Guy's hideout?

The jumps across Seeing Square are actually not hard to make just "normally" with no speed potions or anything. I jumped acorss the four of the many times and never used anything. Target your jump between the middle and the front edge and you should end up "catching" the edge and mantling up.

Indeed, you can jump across easily, just don't try to jump too far, and you will grab the edge.
Holy water comes useful in the small tower on the city wall.
The crate may not be opened.

WhiteFantom,
[SPOILER]It is found in the northwest.[/SPOILER]
More accurately: on the city walls just west of the Coronet.
