Escape from The Prison | Mission 5 - Caught in the Trap

There are two ways of escaping the prison...

1a. Through the pipe

Begin by going left. There is a small passageway next to the food table (1). Use it to get through to the next room. Once you've encountered the talking guards, enter the nook found on the right - you'll encounter a switch (2). Use it to open the crate over the aforementioned food table. Finally, use the pipe above the table (3) to leave the cell.

Additionally, once you've used the small passageway (marked with (1)) you can use a lever next to the gate that will release other goblins and create a bit of commotion to make things easier for you.

1b. The climb

The second route. Find a large hole in the room with white light shining on its walls. Use the hole and begin the climb to the balcony that will lead you through rocks, handles, and a rope. Proceed to the stairs.

2a. Way through the laboratory

Laboratory door

The floor above ends with a locked door and a female guard armed with a worm. You can either steal the key from her or open the door using your lockpick. Before you proceed through the door, use a clone or invisibility to enter the room without attracting too much attention (unlocking the door will attract the guard).

The lever transfers the weight from one side to the other and enables the player to climb to the next floor

Use the lever at the corner of the room to lower the cage. Climb onto it, then create a clone and order him to use the lever once again.

2b. Way through the tower

Follow the stairs to the balcony and give the signal to Helledryn

The recommended way. In this case, avoid stopping by the laboratory and follow the stairs to find a window leading to the tower.

The unexpected alarm will confuse the guards

You'll find a lever that activates the alarm bell. Use it to create a small commotion and force the guards leave their posts. Then, hide below the table so the guard passes you by without resorting to combat. When the guard had left the room, jump on the pillar with the activated lever to get to the upper floor. You'll be able to access the beams supporting the bridge.
