Hub 4: Castle of Grief (map)

The Castle of Grief is the first map in the hub of the same name.

The maps you can reach from the Castle of Grief are Forsaken Outpost and Gibbet.

Walkthrough
You begin in a small room located in the north end. Once outside the starting room you are on the front door, north entrance, to the castle. It should be noted that like Heresiarch's Seminary the castle is guarded by many monsters right from the start.

The castle is protected by a wall running between five guard towers located roughly in the northwest, west, south, east and northeast. There are two openings in the wall – one in the north end center and one in the southwest corner. On both sides of both entrances are lifts to the castle wall.

Inside the walls are will find four buildings:
 * The tower – round building, located in the map's center: Upon claiming this gear, the mouths in the columns begin shooting darts.
 * The clockhouse – U-shaped, located in southwest corner (entrance from south).
 * The firefloor – L-shaped, located in southeast corner (entrance from north): Upon claiming this gear, the holes in the floor above erupt with fireballs.
 * The pillar house – located west.

Between you and a castle is a moat that has a wooden bridge in the middle. To raise the stairs you need to go into water on both sides of the bridge and pull the switches, thereby raising the stairs so you can enter the castle. You are at the north entrance. On either side of the entrance there are lifts to castle wall, but they aren't working yet.

Your first mission is to activate the clock in the clockhouse. To do this you need four clock gears; the order in which you acquire them is not important.


 * 1) 	Look inside the pillar house – there you see the gear immediately. Taking the clock gear activates a trap as the pillars drop.
 * 2) 	In the middle of the tower building is platform where the clock gear is. Taking it makes the pillars shoot darts, but running through seems to work fine.
 * 3) 	Go outside the walls through the south entrance (located in the southwest corner). Now you must go around the walls on both sides of the castle and activate four moon buttons hidden in corners. When done return to the tower. In the north end a ledge has lowered with the clock gear.
 * 4) 	Inside the tower building there is a moon button on a ledge in the east wall. Pushing it activates the lifts to castle wall level. Go on the wall and go to each of the five guard towers. In each there is inside a demon face button. After all five are activated enter the firefloor building and take the gear.

With all four clock gears enter the clockhouse and open the shutters on the wall. Insert the four clock gears to their corresponding places. When all four have been placed the clock begins to work and you get a message that in the tower a ledge has lowered (revealing a Dark Servant artifact). Riding the ledge up leads to a teleport switch to Gibbet.

The Forsaken Outpost exit is located at the map's southeast corner. 91.152.77.222 14:08, 27 July 2008 (UTC) Jeje2
