Broken Sword: The Sleeping Dragon Hints

The proprietor of the Cosmic Faerie won't let me go upstairs.

  • 1 of 8: You won't be able to go upstairs until George completes another task.
  • 2 of 8: He apparently is quite guarded about whatever is up there.  As long as he's in the store, and doing his job, he won't let you up the stairway.
  • 3 of 8: Perhaps a distraction of some kind may allow George to slip by Tristram's watchful eye.
  • 4 of 8: What (or who) in town could provide that kind of distraction?  Who else has any common interest with Tristram?
  • 5 of 8: Talk to Eamon, and ask him about Tristram -- and his book -- more than once. 
  • 6 of 8: For the appropriate conversation option to be available, George will need to be in possession of Tristram's book of poetry.
  • 7 of 8: He gets so upset about Tristram's book, that he runs to Tristram and begins arguing with him.
  • 8 of 8: As soon as possible, while the men are still arguing, move George through the door to the stairway.
