One of them is waiting for you in the Hall of Ablution, and it’s relatively easy to solve. As soon as you find yourself in the room, you will see four statues standing at different ends of the room, and one torch is burning above each of these. In addition, at the end of the room, there is a painting with a clue.
โAlthough I have just drowned, the arrowsโ bit doth sting. They hanged me long ago, yet I feel everything. But still the worst, not last nor first, the sharpened blade did ring.โ
To solve the puzzle, you must interact with each statue in the correct subsequence. The Statue will move closer to the wall if you make the right choice, and the torch will not go out.
