Loot requirements: 2000
Loot available: 2758
Loot listed here: 2758
Kills allowed: No
Equipment recommendations: Gas arrows, gas mines
Note: To avoid raising suspicion before grabbing the talisman's, some of the more well guarded loot will have to be obtained during your escape, most notably the gold hammer in the foyer, and the gold hammer on the main altar.
Entry/Wallbuilder's Prayer
Present your scroll at the gate and continue North thru the foyer (note the gold hammer), and thru the North door into the causeway. Take the first door on your right and grab the Wallbuilder's Prayer papyrus from the table. Go out the East door of this room and around to the reliquary. Note the switch behind St. Yora's skull, and the First Hammer on the second pedestal (don't do anything with these yet). Leave the reliquary thru the West door and cross thru the main chapel (there is a gold hammer on the altar to your right that you can grab after getting the Talismans). Continue West to the Library and pick the lock on the wooden door. Inside are two gold bottles (100 ttl). The crate has the locations for the switches but you'll have to have a key to open it. The five switches are located:
On this level: Behind St. Yora's skull in the Reliquary
Downstairs: 1 in the garden, and 1 in the graveyard
Basement: 1 in the old kitchen, and 1 in the Inquisitor's chambers
All five switches must be thrown within five minutes of one another. First go back to the causeway and down the main staircase and collect your loot.
Downstairs
At the foot of the large staircase go South down the hall to the High Priest's room on the right (there is a Hammer mosaic and a small window). Hit him w/ a gas arrow, or sneak thru the room and grab the gold bottle (50), the hammer on the pedestal, and the gem (100). In the back room you'll find another gold bottle (50), a key and a gold hammer (75). You should be able to get into the other rooms w/ the key. Start in the Northeast corner:
First room on left: key, crate with purse (100)
Second room on left: tiara (125), gold bottle (50) in crate
Skip the priests room
3rd room on left: key, healing potion
Go South to the dining room and grab 3 gold bottles (150 ttl). Go thru the kitchen and head North down the hall.
Second room on left: key, gold cup (25)
Last room on left: purse (100) in crate
Head back toward the dining room and take the East stairs down to the storeroom.
Basement
Beware the guard patrol in this hallway. There is another Priest room on the South side of the hallway. He's sleeping on the bed- grab the silver coins (12) on the table to the left, then thru to the Inquisitor's room and flip the switch to the right behind the rack. Go back thru the Priest's room and to the Northeast corner of the hallway. Pick the lock on the kitchen door and grab 2 purses and a gem (300 ttl) from the crates and all the coins from the floor (371 ttl). In the back room, flip the switch above the fireplace and head back to the Northeast storeroom. Go up the stone stairs.
Remaining Switches
Go to the red posts, then turn North down the hall to the wooden sparring area. Head right into the garden and go left to the overhang, under the portion of the brick wall that sticks out, and throw the 3rd switch. Back thru the sparring area and West into the graveyard, there are a total of 4 vases (500) and the 4th switch in top of the next to the last memorial. At this point the Hammers will notice the missing vases and sound the alarm, so move quickly. Go back up the main staircase and North to the Reliquary on the right (to the East of the main chapel). Throw the 5th switch and grab the First Hammer. Rather than running back down the stairs, you may want to leave the Reliquary via the South door and jump the balcony to the garden.
The Talismans
Downstairs, go to the Southernmost point of the hallway to a room with two cells on the far side. If you have the Hammer from the Priest's room on this floor, the bridge will extend. Cross over and throw the switch on the left to open the cell on the right. Prepare the Wallbuilder's Prayer and step inside the cell with the Talisman's. Read the Prayer and grab the Talismans.
Getting Out
Jump down and head left into the Basement. Pass the prison cells and turn left in the Inquisitor's chamber. Go thru the Priest's room and then left in the hall to the Northwest storeroom. Around the corner in the second room, take the stone stairs up and head East to the red posts. Go North down the hall and up the main stairs, and leave heading South thru the main entrance.
