WARNING!
Map: The Haunted Cathedral
When you come to the Grotto, DO NOT light both the torches with a single fire arrow! That will not open the secret passage which is necessary for the main quest. You have to light each torch individually. Lighting them both with a single arrow and then firing another arrow while they're already alight won't work. Remember: one at a time!!! :devil:
Due to my own stupidity, this little blunder cost me an hour of useless wandering around. :sweat:

At last, now I can finish the game

It's important to stand on keyhole pedestal, then if you shoot one fire arrow into the statue between the torches, it'll ignite them both at once and the entrance to the grooto will open.

No, it won't.
That's exactly what I did... and it won't work ;)
You do have to light them one at a time.
Or at least, for some reason, it won't work for me that way.
Anyway, I've got v1.37 of Thief Gold.

Just checked, for me on TDP and TG it works the way I described.

What the hell. I used a water arrow. :grr:

Wow. We're bearing down on ten years of Thief. :eek:
Anyways... I always shot the one arrow as Winter Cat described and it worked for me. *shrug*

Never used more than one fire arrow there.
