Blackwell 5: Epiphany Hints

How do I stop Madeline?

  • 1 of 7: After you leave the asylum, Joey and Rosa automatically go to the school. Madeline is on the roof, so go up the stairs to find her.
  • 2 of 7: Reasoning with Madeline does little good, though. She wants nothing from the universe except to stop being a spirit guide and just move on, one way or another, and doesn't care if she takes millions with her. We need to find something magical/miraculous here to transport her out of the world and into the void, like any other spirit.
  • 3 of 7: Remember how Madeline's totem worked on the spirits she was hunting? She used her tiara, part of her essence, to transport them to a magical circle. Is that any help?
  • 4 of 7: Maybe we can do the same thing with Madeline -- make a circle in the void, then use some of Joey's essence on it to make a totem that will transport her into it. Okay, I know, that's an extreme long shot. But what else are we going to do?
  • 5 of 7: Go back downstairs and look at Michael's body to find a piece of chalk. Take it.
  • 6 of 7: Now have Joey use his tie on Rosa to transport the two of them to the void. Use the chalk to draw a magical circle on the pavement here. If you now use Joey's tie on the circle, the circle will start to glow, and so will Joey's tie.
  • 7 of 7: Joey can now use that glowing tie on Madeline. Save, then go through the portal one last time.
