Act 2
The hut on the cliff

I marked the candles that need to be lit in the correct order.
1. The candle with the downward arrowhead
2. The candle with the connected arrowhead
3. The candle with the upward arrowhead
Act 3
Sentry
The answer is :
Zi + Uddu-ya + Ia Ia + Gat + Exa + Nibbit + Kanpa + Gat + Uddu-zi
Lighting the Braziers
The puzzle starts with braziers 0, 3, and 4 lit. To unlock the door, light braziers 1 and 5.
The Secrets of Loc Muinne
Riddles
The eye may ask you one of three riddles :
I’m seen to fly, described as hard. I can be your currency and heal all wounds, but not many things can stand my test. Answer: Time
Pleasant or terrible, I come at night or in daytime. Short or long, but yours alone, essential, I am… Answer: Dream
Capable of kindness and cruelty, I take victims when I sour. I can be on your side or wrong you. I bring gifts, though you already have me. Answer: Fate
Final riddle :
“A group of travellers wandering through the dark, three guides above them so three were marked, at night they trailed a Drake Serpentine,
And a silver lady, shining and fine, if only her Visage she would deign to unfold,
By day they followed a mountainside vault – its riches untold.”
The answers for each verse are:
Verse 1 – The Dragon Constellation, Verse 2 – The Full Moon, Verse 3 – The Mine Entrance In The Mountainside
The Blood Curse – King Henselt’s circle
