Daisy, you're on the right track when you're taking the "opposing forces" clue into account. Just think "opposites". :) [SPOILER]Did you notice that there are arrows from all different types of elements in the room. Try using one of each of those before you go swimming.[/SPOILER]
That's just a rather pointed hint, not a spoiler. If you're still stuck, let us know! :)

Oh, I see
[SPOILER]I was thinking of only two as opposites--fire and water. I'll try all of them. [/SPOILER]

Has anyone noticed that, in the main library [SPOILER]in the elevator shaft that is out of whack, the cross-section of the floor is mechanical dials?? Odd texture, though I will assume that it is part of the technology that makes the thing work.[/SPOILER]
Just a dumb observation. This FM is as good to look at as to play. Rockin. I love the [SPOILER]M. C. Escher swans on the ceiling.[/SPOILER] :thumb:

Thanks, Nightwalker--that worked.[SPOILER] I never saw the switch to turn off the cameras till I was done there. I have completed all the objectives except the loot. Where does the wheel peg go? I don't remember seeing anyplace to put it.[/SPOILER]

Daisy [SPOILER]there's a room with pillars filled with water on the second floor. The ship's wheel is on the wall in the back corner. [/SPOILER]

Ok, things are going great. But big glitch...[SPOILER]I am in the elemental room, I hit all the elemental globes with the right arrows, used the potions to turn off the alarm, and I read the book to get the codes. Swam up to the roof, (had to use a breath potion), typed in the code.... and nothing. Well, I died--five times--but besides that, nothing. Did I read the code book right? I will be honest, there is nothing to decipher on mine. On the left, a list of symbols which correspond to numbers 1-0. On the right, a schematic and a list of elements at the bottom. the elements are numbered in the schematic, and their numbers are 1-2-3-4. But I see nothing to decipher, no symbols of any sort. Did I get all the way here and miss something else....??[/SPOILER]
*sigh* :erg:

[SPOILER]Did you copy down the symbols you saw when you used the elementals beneath the study? Use the book to translate them to numbers and the other page gives the order to use them in a code.[/SPOILER]

I'm surprised you didn't find the answer with a search because I know other people have had problems with the same thing.
You need to go up to the top floor of Angel Hall and look under a bench for a lever. There is a water arrow sitting on top of the bench (or there was unless you've already taken it.)
