If you haven't been in Layne's house, then you haven't met up with Layne yet. Layne lost his key when he was arrested.

Great! Thanks for your help.

After reading about people having difficulty even getting in the city on the harder levels I decided to play on easy; I am not finding it easy at all. I have managed to take out everyone with three exceptions: The two archers towards the beginning; The patrons at the tavern; the guards at the Hammerite temple. I have been in the church tower and retrieved the Cultivator; I have inspected the tavern; I have been in the bell tower; I even visited the North side briefly (no key for the door in the water); but I have not managed to find Layne's house or successfully enter the North side. I assume that there is a reason that I have all these rope arrows (6), but, so far, I have only used them to get into the church tower. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've only played this one on Easy once, but I seem to remember that you have the key to Layne's place in your inventory at the start. If you do, then you have to go to the alleyway from the square with the Tavern that leads down to the waterway where you climbed out when you first entered the city. (You heard a fight between the two guards. At least I think you still do it that way on Easy.) In that alleyway, there's a door with a lockbox beside it. That's the door to Layne's rooms.

I highly recommend playing this one on the higher difficulty levels as well. One piece of advice: go easy on blackjacking the town's AI's; 'nuff said. :devil:

Thanks, Nightwalker. As soon as I posted my plea I found it. I had thought that door was the door to the prison and blew it off. I went back and played it on hard and expert; it was awesome.

No, blackjack them all! It's the only way to save their lives.

I assume all of you are referring to [SPOILER]the two haunts in the town square[/SPOILER] It was a ton of fun to Back stab one of em and then run like hell back to the tavern where the Hammerite beat it to death and then went calmly back to his ale. LOL.
