hi guys !!

Im new in this forum and i would like some help with the game. I know it is an old game but a friend of mine gave it to me recently to play it.

1) where can i find Sir Patrick's title deed in Verdistis? How can i get to his private chamber?

2) i have the lockpick skill at 5th level and i cannot open the hatch in the alone house in verdistis. Also how can i get to the stormfist castle? i went down the sewers an i only found one entrance to the treasure room and one entrance to the prisons. i killed the execuioner there but i cannot pick the lock both to the door that a guy is imprisoned and the door that a guard is next to it.

3)how can i solve the expose George's murder quest?

4)how can i solve the "get access to the tarts" quest in Verdistis? I found a place under the market (down a hatch) with tarts but when i go back to tell the guy that gave me the quest, the quest doesn't get solved.

please help

Welcome to the forum.

I did not play Divine Divinity since a very long time but i am going to try to give you some answers.

You can find the title deed in a secret room in Sir Patrick's house in Verdistis.
You can get in the house using a lever which is hidden in the garden.

Don't try to open it. This hatch will be opened later in the game. Don't worry.

You can't get in Stormfist castle by the entrance of the prison.
There is another entrance in the sewers for the treasure room.
Try to find it by yourself or have a talk with the owner of the Ducal inn, he will give you a map of the sewers.

First you have to solve the quest of the people murdered in Vesdistis.

You have to go in front of Corinna's house, there you will see women talking about the tarts.
I don't remember the names.
Then you will have to talk about it to the inn's keeper to solve this quest.

I believe it's a teleporter stone, actually. Partially hidden behind some stone
at the west side of his house. Or maybe I'm thinking of another quest?

They're kinda the same quest, actually. They're completed at the same place; Pierce's wine shop in Verdistis. You will talk to him and he'll give you permission to look around in his shop, eventually you'll end up in his cellar... The answer is hidden down there.

Oo, and sorry for being such a besserwisser <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" /> And a spoiler, to that! I'll try to be nice. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/puppyeyes.gif" alt="" />

Yep it is a teleporter stone. Inside the place there are some levers.
Sorry i don't remember well everything in the game.

Have you finished this quest ?
In the cellar, you will meet a familiar character, well hidden.
Then report to Mardaneus.

Don't worry, you can't spoil the surprise for any people in the forum because we played the game 5 years ago !

For the castle treasure room sewer entrance, there are stairs up to a room which contains a locked door before you have the quest to rescue Zandalor. After you have the quest it will be open.

If you are trying to get back into the castle itself after entering by invitation (there are 3 quests which will give you one), you can toss a teleporter stone past the guards at the gate. Alternately, you can simply run in; after the guards stop you, pause the game immediately after the conversation ends, and then click inside the castle again. They will not be fast enough to stop you a second time.
WARNING: do not enter the castle this way before you have entered by invitation. If you get in early, talk to the duke and get a quest to find a cat, that quest will be broken when you do enter by invitation, and you will not be able to proceed. The only recourse for this would be reloading a save from before you entered the castle the first time.

That's right, but that's only like 4 levers, easy one to figure those out.

When i answered to the second post in this thread, i thought i was talking to the member who opened the topic.
I did not look at your nick name and i did not realise i was answering to somebody else.

Later reading Raze's answer, i did not understand why he wrote :

It's actually German language and means - literally translated - "one-who-knows-everything-better(-than-others-do)".

I killed the vampire tutamun in Pierce's cellar but only the quest for the murders in Verdistis got solved. He didn't mention anything about george although while talking to him there was an option asking him about george but i prefered to ask him if he is involved to the murders. Do i have to report to Mardaneus? I've already sent him to the council of 7.

in the sewers there are 2 entrances to the castle. one for the prisons and one for the treasure room. First i Prefered to enter the treasure room where I was trapped and i saved Zandalor. He gave me the quest to go to the treasure room to find the sword of lies. it wasn't there so i returned back to him and we teleported out. when I try to enter again the treasure room from the sewers the entrance is blocked by the magic force shield, the trap that the black ring guys set up. Also in the prisons I can see a guy imprisoned an I think it's Dorian, the guys who was butchering the cows. How can I save him????

Also when i Killed Cybu with commander's Ralph help. He told me that he will inform the stormfist castle and i'll get an invitation form Janus. Well nothing happened. I went back to Ralph's Headquarters but still nothing.

You should have opened the option about George in the dialog with Tutamum.
But anyway don't have any regret because you have already sent Mardaneus to the council and it is too late for solving George's quest.

Yes it is Dorian but you can't save him now.
Dorian is not a bad guy, you should have let him free when you solved the quest about the cows.

Go back to the place where you kill Cybu, you should find a letter on the ground.

You would have to report to Mardaneus to solve George's murder, but without specifically asking the vampire about him I don't think you will get that option. Even asking the vampire about George, though, some people have had problems reporting to Mardaneus about this if he had already moved to the council hall.

You can only explore the treasure room area once. Other than the strangely small amount of stuff to loot for a treasure room, the main point of the area is plot development (ie you learn that Janus found the Sword of Lies while playing, and became possessed).

You only get one invitation from Ralph, even though he says he will give you one for solving both of the quests he is involved in which can get you into the castle (plague and duke's murder). Also, after you have been to the castle you can not get invited back.
