Third floor

  • Kickable shortcut ladder to the second floor, from where the Avelyn can be reached by jumping on top of a series of bookcases below.

  • Second wax vat upstairs and to the left.
  • Hidden area revealed by pulling a lever to the right of the wooden bridge (must be reached from the fourth floor), with a corpse sitting on a chair holding the Scholar Ring.
