[b][/b] I need help. I light 3 candles and when I light the 4th the others go out and I have to keep trying to light them again. I can't see any ghosts just a spark, so how am I to kill them? Help please, being playing this part for 2 days now.

Only thing I can think of is persistence: I have to say I hated this particular quest, but after a long period of flinging AoE spells around in the brief times there was visibility and rushing around keeping the candles lit the rest of the time, I eventually came through. So it is possible... just not very pleasant.

You have to be very fast moving from corner to corner. I was ignoring being hit and just concentrating on getting to the corners. Jumping helps because there are many obstacles in your way. As soon as I light the 4th candle, I make a quick turn around and start firing arrows into the void behind me; specifically Explosive Arrows and Splitting Arrows. They'd find their targets automatically. No time to target anything specific.


I'd like to close by quoting Bellegar's famous last rhyme:

"Cursed be the mother that bred thee!
The wench must have been a hell-spawned banshee!"

Thanks for replying, but I think I hate this one two. Crowell's has dissapeared too. Hope he shows up at the end.

I have been jumping and hitting and have lit the candles, but always get 3 lit when I light the 4th the others go off and have to keep running lighting them over and over again. I seen the ghosts maybe 3 times. Does anyone have a save to get past this part as I have been here for 4 days now.

I finally did it but now I can't find Caracallas? Where did he go? I got out of that room with the portal but no Caracallas so I can't close this quest/ Help
