Chapter Nine: NOWHERE

Upon waking, you are back in the Director's room in the basement with Lisa.

Head towards the elevator; it will open automatically. Enter it and proceed to the next floor.

Exit the elevator and enter the first room on your right. You will see a birdcage containing a key, but it is locked.

Leave this room and enter the one across the hall. A faucet has a key stuck in it, but you cannot remove it yet.

Continue down the hall until you see Cheryl entering a room. The door is locked with "Phaleg" etched into it.

Proceed to the next door on your right, which is unlocked. This room resembles the Antique Shop and contains a notepad to save your game.

Examine the clock; it has a square hole and one of its hands is a key. You cannot break the glass protecting it. Pick up the first aid kit and ammo in the room.

As you leave the room, two nurses will appear in the hallway; shoot them.

Examine the doors in the hallway. You will find a door marked "Ophiel" which is locked.

The last door on the right should be accessible. Enter it.

Take the stairs down to the door at the bottom. Enter this door to find yourself back in the school.

Examine the desk in the middle of the room for a carving.

Go to the back of the room and enter the next door. You will find a gurney with tools; collect them.

Return upstairs to the room with the faucet. Use the pliers from your inventory to retrieve the key, which is the Key of Ophiel.

Use the Key of Ophiel to unlock the door marked "Ophiel".

Enter the new hallway, which resembles Alchemilla Hospital. Only one door is unlocked; enter it.

Inside, you will find four pictures representing astrological signs on the wall. A pillar in the center holds the "Stone of Time".

To solve the puzzle and obtain the "Stone of Time", change the numbers of the astrological signs according to the "changed month of the year". Use the signs on the pillar as a guide. Enter six under Capricorn, four under Taurus, and eight under Scorpio.

Once you have the "Stone of Time", leave the room, being wary of the nurse in the hallway.

Proceed through the double doors at the end of the hallway. To the right of the door is a keypad.

Go to the other end of the hall to read clues carved on a plate: "The Grim reapers list. Yes the headcount is set young and old lined up in order of age. Then the pathway to opens awaiting them to frenzied uproar, the fest of death!".

Return to the door with the keypad. To the right of the door, you will find the grim reaper's list on the wall: 35 Lydia Findly, 60 Trevor F. White, 18 Albert Lords, 45 Roberta T. Morgan, 36 Edward C. Briggs.

To solve the keypad puzzle, take the first letter of each first name and spell a word by ordering the individuals from youngest to oldest. The solution spells ALERT.
