EDIT: Never mind, I found second clue with alternative solution how to
get the key. But
shouldn't ruby work too?

Aaah, thanks Yandros, I must try it next time. Probably I didn't understand the clue well enough. Or maybe the elemental is saying something about giving it to him? I must admitt that I didn't understand all his words, my English skill is better when I read than when listen.
Anyway I'm affraid I stuck again. Got 3 keys and went back to the mage - nothing happened. I tried with placing them in the coffin's locks but after that still mage doesn't respond :( I tried reload previous save but this time an invisible object blocked my way to mage's room. So nothing again. I play on Expert. Probably something went wrong and I can't finish without replaying it from start?

Again, same here. I didn't understand a single word of what the lord/mage said. :o
I got all the keys, and the 3 objectives are checked. But nothing happens when I unlock the (coffin?). Was there another way to "bring him the keys"?
Really a pity, this mission is so outstanding! I loved the special effects, expecially the "fire entity" or whatever it was. :thumb:
Another weirdness: my blackjack has become transparent......
Well, I will try again. BTW, I'm playing on Normal.

i'm not sure what happend right now, but after installing this mission with darkloader 4.3 my pc crashed. after a restart not only darkloader-files were damaged but also some t2 folders weren't accessible anymore. now i'm about to reinstall the whole game :confused:

replayed the mission again, got all the 3 keys, all other objects are ticked off, but velleme is still refusing to see me and the objective to bring him the 3 keys won't tick off :( , anyone a suggestion??
velleme mentioned he got the 4th key.. is it to be found somewhere.. I really want to know what is in the coffin;)
ofcourse after writing this I found the 4th key.opened the coffin/chest, went back to the mages to put the diarry on the table
but still no change on the 3 keys objective:( , so no way to end this mission for me:(
Iceblade on 3/12/2008 at 00:52
okay seriously, where is the vell's key at? I can't find it anywhere
nightshifter on 3/12/2008 at 01:08
in the library
bigger spoilerthere is a frobbable book, that will open a compartment in the floor near the fireplace

O.K. I progressed in the plot: I found 4th key, but I don't think I would without a clues I've read here. There was a diary too which revealed new objectives for me, but I think there wasn't any objective earlier to look for 4th key or hidden book or anything like that, so I think it's very weak point of the objective's chain. Anyway I managed to fullfill all new objectives: looted the coffin and also I left the book in Mages area on the table. But still I can't satisfy "bring 3 keys" objective. If it's broken I will consider the mission completed :)
For now my impression is that it's extreme high-tech mission. I took a look at it in Dromed and what I can say is that it's totaly different way of building the mission. Which was already mentioned in this thread, but I mention that again to add that I really appreciate the effort of this mission's author. He shown great creativity and used well his mind to break the chains of the contest's space limit and he succeed. Plot is interesting too, it's just that for now some things seems to don't work well enough to let the player fully enjoy gameplay.
This one is definitelly a FM which I won't forget. I already told one of my non-dromed friends how amazing idea appeared in this FM to extend it's space still obeying contest rules. Thats very positive aspect of the contest limits - they stimulates creativity.
Of course non-dromed friends usually just looks at me this sceptic way when I say anything about Dromeding...

Oh, so you can find the fourth they can open that containery thing?
I'll have to replay this one after I've played the others and give that a go!
In any case, I was able to complete the mission without it? The mage guy started talking to me as soon as I came near him after getting the (three) keys. Maybe it's some kind of bug?

Lucky you. I didn't manage to talk with him after retrieving
3 or even 4 keys. I suppose there are some bugs in objective setup. I suspected that the objective with
3 keys should be cancelled when finding
fourth key and a diary (new objectives appears then, quite opposite to cooperating with the employer in my opinion), but if you say that you talked to the guy and finished the mission this way then probably the things are a bit more complicated...
