I know this is a little off-topic but what's the source of the sound file "main2_3"? (The very creepy music that play in the thieve's den below the bar)
I've been trying to find it for ages but alas no success :(

I was curious about "main2_2" track for some time now; also could't find the source

to the Lady...
9/30
Good evening,
I'm give-or-take about 1/2-way thru evening 2 of this Fantastical mission, and I just Had to write...couldn't contain myself
I'm basically new to the Thief series in general, having only played my 1st Thief [Gold] about 6 months ago, when Steam had a huge bundled sale.
In that time I've played Thief Gold, Metal Age (my favorite), Thief III,...even the newest Thief (4)
Also played T2X...and the 2 in the COSAS series...
...and about 2 weeks ago for the 1st time, started the general fan missions
Yours is about the 4-5th played
I did ALOT of research before choosing fan missions, figuring I'd start with the best-of-the best by the most opinions.
In any case...long-winded intro aside, by leaps-n-bounds yours is the best so far!
There is just SOOOO much I love about this mini-series, including
1. The city design
2. the beautiful outre' art that creeps in just when you don't expect it (like the Doctor's dungeon-like room)
3. the evolving mission goals, each one being so logical in its evolution
4. the fact that buildings that intrigued you in Night 1 that were 'closed to the public' all of a sudden open up on subsequent nights
5. The delicate balance between the immensity of the places one needs to traverse...and still keeping it manageable
6. the multiple (Deus Ex -like ways) one can achieve the goals
and I haven't even mentioned the whole medieval steam punk atmosphere!
This is just such a classic mission (me...whose only played 4 speaking!)...I'm not quite 1/2-way thru and I'm dreaming of replaying it again
I cannot thank you enough for all the enjoyment this mission has given me.
Which I'll end with...
might as well search out YOUR other Thief missions...are their any YOU feel are of, or close to, this quality of YOURS?
Cordially

PS: for the record, again off a Steam sale, playing Gothic II for the 1st time...your fan mission blows away that commercial game!

10/7
I just finished this abso-FRIGGIn-lutely SUPERB fan mission last nite...I'm guessing the whole thing took me about 8-10 hours...possibly I underestimate.
Could it BE more wonderful?!?- I don't think so.
In fact, just as I was getting bogged down in Night 3, thinking it had dipped in quality from the esteemed heights of level II, I came to its last 1/4,not to mention the ending boss scene...and to quote Alice Cooper, 'Loved it to Death'!
So...and I know you're dying to hear this...when's the next mission?
I mean you've had a 7 year rest, right?
It'll be easy, in 3 simple steps:
Step 1:
abandon your (semblance of) a life, as you know it
Step 2:
announce a comeback mission; commit, your honor depends on it...
Step 3:
Do it.
...admittedly, Step 3 might take a little bit longer than steps 1 &2, I'll grant you that.
On my part, I'm certainly willing to 'hold-my-breadth' till you do, so, here's the countdown for breadth-holding...
10..9...8.7...6.5...4...3....2 1/2...2...1 1/4...1...errr.......

Yes, definitely do that.
Rowena's Curse is awesome. Less polished than The Seven Sisters and one might think it starts a bit innocently, but then the story gradually builds up to something amazing (and dark/sinister). Gameplay is fun as well.
The Tower is also a favourite. Small (for contest reasons), with nice vertical gameplay and it's astonishing how much
story the relatively small space holds.

....you were RIGHT!
Exactly as you said....just finished it (R.C.) after 4 hours of gameplay (over a week)
It started out very drab & non-descript.
...and then it just became fantastic.
I don't think I'm imagining this...but this is a Thief Fan Mission riff on 'Jane Eyre'...right?
Move over Ms. Bronte...Lady Rowena did you one better!
Plus....the picture in Rowena's room IS the game author(ess)!
Don't tell me I'm imagining it...I prefer the fantasy

I have a bit of a problem in-game and I'm playing on easy difficulty, on night 1. After I healed a few of the plagued citizens (like the objectives told me to), the objectives don't tick off. Anyone have a solution for this?

Did you already cure Jennivere?
