Try taking a look at this walkthrough:

Keepsake walkthrough

Scroll down the page until you see the heading of "Phase III: Find Nathaniel." Read through that section until you find yourself in the Art Classroom (the fourth paragraph down)and see if you are able to progress from there. smile

hi Marian, i am following Tally-ho's w/t. when he says 'use the portal to return to the library tower' after meeting Grandmaster Nightingale, does he mean before or after i use the portal to de-activate the protection spell and where do i go to de-activate it? the w/t says the watch tower but how exactly do i get there? the w/t doesn't specify. robert.

Hi Robert, try taking a look at this video on YouTube, which starts after you have had that long talk with Grandmaster Nightingale. Maybe this will help:

Keepsake video walkthrough

The Watch Tower is also called by the name of the North Tower; they are the same location.

This really looks like a complicated game. wave

That's strange - the video works just fine for me. frown Sorry about that. Let me see if I can find other help for you at this point in the game. wave

EDIT: It seems that you leave the Sanctuary the same way you got in, which is through the blue portal, and you then arrive at the West Tower Skyway. To get to the Watchtower from the West Tower Skyway, you go around the balcony and back down the footbridge to the area with the red and yellow disks. Go to the right of the yellow disk. If necessary, wait again for completion of conversation between Lydia and Zak. Then, go to the floating ball, screen right. Click on it to hear Lydia deactivate the lock with the "Dragonus Enferenis" spell.

You can also refer to your in-game map to help you figure out how to get to these locations. smile

What's the problem at the secret library?
Can you not get there, deactivate or with the puzzle?

You have to deactivate the protection spell to access the secret library. You get the password from Master Nightingale at the classroom.

hi Mag, i keep ending up at the red ball - which you can't take or do anything with and the tally-ho w/t doesn't say e.g left, right, up, down, as direction to go. robert.

Here's Gimli's walkthrough.




Take glass ball No. 1 from banister
Go from staircase room (standing on the topmost stair, stairs behind you!) first to room 1 to your right, take glass ball No. 2, go back to staircase room
Then from there to room 2, take glass ball No. 3, go directly from room 2 to room 3 and click on the tapestry (coloured bullets) on one of the walls, all the way back to the staircase room and
Then to room 4 and from there directly to room 5, click on tapestry (with plants on it)
Then walk back to the main room with staircase
Then go once again to room 1 and from there directly to room 6, click on tapestry (with rune signs for water/fire/earth and air)
Then walk back to the main room with staircase
Go to room 7 and from there directly to room 8, take glass ball No. 4,
Go back to room 7 and from there directly to room 9, click on tapestry (with a puzzle poem on it)

Check this You tube - ball Keepsake video walkthrough.

You can check the other chapters on the right column.

Why don't you keep the address of this video page and refer to the rest of the video as you go along on the game. luck

hi Mag, i resorted to the built-in problem solving feature to solve the library and thanks for the video BTW. with regard to Tally-ho W/T, the 'Into the Bottle' segment, do i actually get a piece of meteorite in a magical container and when do i pick it up? 2. how do i de-activate the lock before examining the ship-in-a-bottle?

Hi robert,

Yes, you'll need that meteorite in its container. As far as I can tell, it will appear when the puzzle is correctly solved, and you'll need to click on it to pick it up into your inventory.

Checking against Witchen's walkthrough here as comparison:

In the eye piece, and when all four hot spot numbers in the constellation are lit simultaneously, and no others, you will be awarded with a STAR FRAGMENT (Aeterna) in an ornate container. This is the first of the four required sacred items as told by the Grandmaster's ghost.

Leave the Observatory, going down all the stairs and using the blue disk to return to the East Tower Fountain Hall area. Go left to return to the glass globe resting on the wooden stand. Click on it once to see that you are able to magically change the seasons in the Solarium. Change the globe setting, so the season displayed is SUMMER.

Go to the other side of the tower and take the sky bridge to Nathaniel's office. Click on the floating ball above one corner of the desk. Use "Dragonus Enferenis" to deactivate the lock here.

hi Rushes, i can't 'de-activate' the floating lock as it seems to be active already and is showing a red cross when i click on it. is this in error? perhaps i activated it a while ago although i can't remember? robert.

You want to deactivate that lock or it is done already - so see if you can continue the walkthrough you are following.

hi Mag, i have re-started Keepsake for the umpteenth time and this time actually read the game manual finding out there are only 8 game save slots! now i am scared to use up a save slot needlessly. is there any way around this restriction? robert.

If you know where the saved game folder is located; make a new folder and label it with a description that you will know.
Then copy paste the saved games you have in that folder.
You can then overwrite the old saved game folder.
Do another folder for your next set of 8. luck

Hi Robert, what I would do is to look at the three red and three blue disks without touching them, then go ahead and follow the steps in Witchen's walkthrough under the heading of the Teleporter Nexus Puzzle. I think it's important not to touch the disks when you first see them so that the instructions which follow work correctly. After looking at the disks before trying to do the teleporter puzzle, this might be a good place to save your game also. wave

According to the walkthrough, the three yellow disks are already lit, so:

Quote:
There are four controllers around the periphery of the room. Go to the upper left controller. It's dull gray and sitting at about 10 o'clock. Click on the floating circle to shut it off. The yellow disks in the center go dark. You must do this first to clear all the circuitry.


birthday to you. smile If you go to Mixed Bag, more birthday wishes await you. wave

Hi Robert, I would go to Gimli's walkthrough here. Scroll down until you see the Keepsake Plan of Teleporter, where there is a diagram you can look at. Hopefully you can find your way around with that. wave
