* Story *
As legends have it, there are a lot of valuables down in a crypt aptly called 'Halls of the Damned'.
As legends also have it, those halls are protected by guardians upon which no mortal can bear to look.
But as reality has it, the rent is due, and for me reality takes precedence over legends. I'm so short
of money I can't even afford to buy proper equipment. The main gate is blocked by a Guardian but tonight
I'm using my trusty rope arrow to go down there and clean the place. I just need to find a way to destroy
the Guardians to have any chance of success.
=====================================================================================================
* Notes *
The Unholy Guardians hurt you only if *you* see *them*. To avoid them simply look the other way as you
pass them by. Later in the mission you will be provided with the means to defeat them.
There is a puzzle in this mission (involving eight torches) which is not too difficult to solve. However
if this is not your cup of tea, you can find its solution in the Hints directory installed with the
mission.
There are only a few readables in this mission, but they all contain very important information. So make
sure you read them carefully.
=====================================================================================================
* Known Issues *
- Sometimes (very rarely) the engine wrongly thinks a Guardian is in view and the warning is shown.
If this happens just look away.
