The Messenger Hints
If I touch the statue of the king, I die!
1 of 7: Then don't touch it! (If you've just entered the room for the first time, don't waste time trying to figure out what to do, yet. Return later.)
2 of 7: You will need to recover the sceptre in his hand.
3 of 7: You can't take it directly.
4 of 7: You'll need to pick it up with something else.
5 of 7: Have you found anything that might be a good tool to use?
6 of 7: Perhaps some kind of tongs would help.
7 of 7: Use the fireplace tongs to take the sceptre from the statue.
