Vale of Shadows help please

Post by Shadows »

Im sure everyone out there is sick of this question but Im stuck in level 2 of the Black Wolf Temple. Ive read these forums and also checked the walkthrough and Im still stuck! I cant seem to open the required doors or find area 9 as shown on the walkthrough. I am carrying the Snactum Key, the Gate Key and the Priests Key, Ive trawled the area with a thief and an elf in case theres a secret door, all with no luck.

If I had any hair left Id pull it out!

Any help gratefully appreciated

I'm not sure exactly which area you are talking about, but there was one place where I really got stuck, and maybe it's the same place where you are stuck. Simply put, I couldn't figure out how to open a big door that leads to the west. The problem was, I couldn't find the lever I was supposed to pull. Here's a description of where the lever is located. In the middle of the map, there are three columns that form the corners of a triangle. The lever is on the left side of the eastern column. If you stand back from the map, you can see that there's sort of a green arrow pointing to it. I think you can pull the lever when you find a Talisman, but I can't remember all of the keys to that place.

Good luck!

Many thanks for the reply VonDondu, you have remembered the right room but I have found the lever, I just cant use it. I need to pick up the Wolf Talisman but cannot find the route to the area that holds this.
