The Messenger Hints
How can I get to the Kings' Portrait Gallery?
1 of 9: There is no direct access to the King's Portrait Gallery.
2 of 9: You cannot access it via the map (initially).
3 of 9: You'll need to come up with another way to "jump" to the Portrait Gallery.
4 of 9: Go to the window in the King's bedroom.
5 of 9: Open the shutters.
6 of 9: Look out the window.
7 of 9: You'll also need to look to the right. (Move the cursor to the right side of the screen -- when it looks like a small arrow, click to change the view.)
8 of 9: Can you think of a way to get yourself over there?
9 of 9: Use the crossbow and grappling hook to transport to the Portrait Gallery.
