The Black Mirror Hints
I got James' key, but how do I leave?
1 of 6: How about going right back up the stairs you came down? There's absolutely no reason you couldn't -- well, except that the game wants you to do something else before you leave.
2 of 6: Make sure you've looked around the underground rooms carefully.
3 of 6: Have you examined the "stone relief" on the nearby wall? Maybe it'll offer some relief.
4 of 6: On the contrary, it sure looks a whole lot like another puzzle to be solved!
5 of 6: Good news! All you have to do is get the close-up of the puzzle and then back away.
6 of 6: Once you do this and get the sacred key (in either order), Samuel will experience painful head twinges and go to bed for the rest of the chapter.
