im not sure if maybe i'm missing something big, but I've searched through the forums and havent found an answer. I've searched around the attic of Saturnine's bedroom and cant seem to find a switch or anything to open the passage to the crypt. I see the two chests, but I cant manipulate or open them or anything. Am I just bugged or is there a panel somewhere up there that I have to slide open to find the switch?

Welcome to the forum, icerimp! ;)
I'm surprised you couldn't find the answer to this question with a search, because it's been asked many times. There is a switch on the back of one of the posts at the end of the attic with the window. (On the left side of the room, I believe, though I'm not sure.) It's not hidden or anything, just sitting there. For some reason, people seem to have a great deal of trouble finding it!

lol oh god. I cant believe that. I guess the chests really had be distracted. I mean, seeing a chest that I cant open drives a thief like me crazy! :P

I'm sure this has been asked quite a number of times here on the forums, but I didn't find any answer that would have proved helpful:

How can I open the way to the crypts under Saturnine's mansion? I know that there should be something frobbable somewhere on some attic. I have searched every corner of the attic (the door of which the attic key opens) but found nothing. I have also searched through Saturnine's bedroom, but nothing there either. Behind one of the large crates on the attic there is a shadowy section with a triangular opening to another attic room, but I can't get through the opening. Should I somehow get into this room? If yes, how?
Thank you for your help already in advance!

You need to:
[SPOILER]Go to Saturnine's room up on the 2nd floor and there is a small carpet on the floor, close to his bed. Kneel down and frob it. The secret door will open. Go there and... oh man! I remember how much trouble I had with finding the switch, but there is a small switch, which opens the enterance to the dungeon. If you still can't find it, read the next spoiler.[/SPOILER]
[SPOILER]From what you write about the attic, I think you are in the right room, assuming you got there from Lord Saturnine's bedroom. If you are trying to get up onto that triangular spot near the pirate flag - forget it! I spent like half an hour trying to get up there. Search closer to the other side of the attic.[/SPOILER]
Weeee heeee, I posted before Nightwalker did. No idea how this happened!!! :joke

[SPOILER]From Lord Saturnine's bedroom, you go to the secret attic room, right? Now go to the far side of the attic. That's where you have a window and you can look down thought it. Face left. There is a pillar. Search that pillar carefully. On it's left side, a little up. It's DAMN difficult to find, but THERE IS a switch.[/SPOILER]

LOL! Even I eat and sleep occassionally. :)

I was joking, Nightwalker. :joke: It's actually the first time, when I saw a post without your reply, really. You are a great asset for this forum.

Thank you for your help! You are all great, regardless of who gets to be the first one to reply :)
Now I got into act 3 and ask, what is the smartest way into [SPOILER]the middle section of the crypt complex? I frobbed the switch that reveals the squaratic stairs, but can't find a way there. The obvious doorway is blocked by stones. Perhaps I just have not looked around enough?[/SPOILER]
