The room immediately after the red lock contains the Viscount. Head right keeping to the left hand wall until you find the red key, once this is done, go back the way you came heading up whenever possible, to open the red key. This time keep heading up past the yellow gate and to another three way junction with paths heading to the right and left. Once this is done, head back the way you came until you are back at the three way junction, this time heading right. Moving left keep to the bottom, heading down whenever possible to eventually discover the yellow key. Going right is a waste of time without the yellow key, as you will need it to progress, so head left. The safest route (oddly enough) is to push onwards to the right, then heading down at the threeway junction (you might want to take a slight detour to the left in order to unlock the blue gate, as the blue key is a quest item and can't be discarded.)Ĭontinue to head downwards until the path branches to the right and left. heading back the way you came to unlock the blue gate is something the cautious might try, but in truth the massive stress build makes it unwise. At this point, you techically have two options. Once there, head straight up and keep following the path up through the many combat encounters as it curves to the right.Ĭontinue moving forwards, not deviating from this path until you find the blue key. To begin with, move to the right to the first room.

Unlike the previous area which was more of a gauntlet with three separate areas, this quest takes the form of a maze with a single, long winding route twisting and turning with many other side paths looping in back on themselves, and often disorienting the unwary or careless.

Bring torches to clear mist and use on nests, shovels to clear blockages and dig up potted plants, food to sustain your party, bandages aplenty both for bleed and bone piles, and a stack of The Blood to feed your Vampiric party.Īs always you will be facing massive amounts of Bloodsuckers, roaming beasts and undead and the Crimson Curse for every hero you bring will become a Vampire, if they aren't already. Equipment needed is typical for the Courtyard.
