Help with the Cradle mission please...*spoiler*

[Verin]

I've already been scared out of my mind for hours doing the various quests... I just can't find where the information regarding the 'hag' is. I've done every other quest, even found 100% loot... now I just need to find that before leaving. Please help...

Hi Verin,

It's in one of the rooms accessible only in the past. In this, as in any Thief mission, it's a good idea to read any readable thing you come across & that will be helpful here.

Since there's so many other "need help with Cradel" threads, I hope you don't mind that instead of starting a new one I piggy back on yours.....

Where's the stupid loot in this level??? I have 39% and can't find anything else. Cleared out everything from the Southern portion of the level (before you load the next portion of the map). At least, as much as I could tell. I found a "special loot item", but can't remember what it is. Can anyone give some good ideas on where to find loot? I also cleared out the White Hall, at least as far as I can tell.

Well, I can't remember everything...but I managed to get 98% of the loot on this level.

All the loot is in the "present". The 3 special loot items are:

1-some wine in a safe upstairs in the outer cradle (it's in a room near the stairs to the attic I think).

2-silver scalpels/surgery tools in the lobotomy theatre (same room you get the dissolution solvent or whatever it is), but in the present.

3-bag of golden teeth- in one of the cadaver cubicles in the morgue. If you're facing the furnace it's in the little room off to the right. You can open the little doors on the cubicles where they stick corpses. In one of those.

Everything else had the loot glint to it...but I can't remember where any of it was exactly...sorry.

Oh, and to the original poster...I think it's in the Nursery. On a podium at the end of the room you get her diary in (in the past). There's cots lining both sides of the room, and a podium at the end, and 1 guard. Hope that helps.

Hi TheJerk. As I recall (& it's hard to remember anything when you're as scared as I was playing that mission), there were just little dribs & drabs of loot throughout the mission. It was mostly candlesticks & things. The main loot were the three special loot items. I got 97% loot on this mission without even trying to look for anything.

Thanks. I actually started over, this time on easy (although I could have done it on normal) and managed to pull off 2050/2600 or something like that. Not bad, and finally finished. Now I can worry about the hag...
