Strange Antiquities: Day 14 Walkthrough

• The Catacombs, tomb 1356: a new object
• Gleaston Castle, Blessings in Spring, rising in Autumn: a new object

Clue Card

Hints:

• The card says the object is buried with the Knight of Thorns.
• Look up the Knight of Thorns in the index. The Shimmer entry says he died in the Battle of Souther Fell in 1356.
• Find a tomb with that year in the Catacombs.

Click the tomb marked 1356 in the top right corner of the Catacombs map. You get a new object.

Customer 1: Thomas Pope

Hints:

• Thomas wants a Loem, also called a Hand of Jupiter or a Fire Palm.
• Look for a hand. Jupiter’s planetary metal in Hermetic Symbology is tin.
• The triangle is the symbol for fire.

Give Thomas the grey pendant with a hand and a triangle. Colour and Composition shows tin. You get the book entry for the Cassander.

Customer 2: Agnes Dent

Hints:

• Agnes wants a Heart Chamber. Everything you need is in the sketch.
• Holgar wears several pendants, including a small coffin.
• Check the far left, where the locked objects used to be.

Give Agnes the coffin pendant. Its skull matches the Holgen Grimm mask. You get the book entry for the Brighic Charm.

Blessings in Spring, Rising in Autumn

Edmund Bishop gives you a note with this line. Solve it with the Bishop’s Square:

1. Find the Wicca symbol for Blessing in Hermetic Symbology: a sideways moon with drops below it.
2. Find that symbol on the Gleaston Castle map.
3. Place the Bishop’s Square so its Spring hole, marked with a leaf, sits on the Blessing symbol.
4. Click the area under the Autumn hole, marked with an acorn. It falls on the lower left tower on the right side of the map.

You get a new object.

Customer 3: Thaddeus White

Hints:

• Thaddeus wants a Witherance, the opposite of a Fortinance.
• It is usually made of wood rather than stone.
• Check the unidentified wooden figure on the left, where the locked objects used to be.

Give Thaddeus the wooden figure painted with the Weakness symbol. Colour and Composition confirms wood. You get the book entry for the Folium.

Customer 4: Jacob Priestly

Hints:

• Jacob slurs his words and says his mind is severed. He wants some kind of Mether.
• Compare the Mether entries. The Solemn Mether repairs the mind and produces a stronger Thaumic Field than the others.
• You have three Methers: the large two-handled cups. The Restful Mether is already identified, so test the other two on the lens.

Give Jacob the Mether with the leaf design, which shows a much stronger field. You get the book entry for the Wyxic Cord.

Customer 5: Francesca Robertson

Hints:

• Francesca wants a Gowdian Siren. It looks like a Thaumic Needle, so think of an obelisk shape.
• It creates a strong pull that diverts attention.
• The sketch in the entry shows the pendant itself.

Give Francesca the obelisk-shaped pendant with a green base and a wooden middle. Inner Perception makes it hard to look away. You get the book entry for Carrick’s Candle.
