I'm in the keep, but I can't go much of anywhere.
  • 1 of 5: Huge wooden doors in your way?
  • 2 of 5: If you enter the keep through its ground-floor entrance (which you shouldn't), you'll end up in its northern section.
  • 3 of 5: You can find several Imps and two Imp generators to trash, but that's all.
  • 4 of 5: You'll have to exit the keep and climb up its outer fortifications to the top level to find the other door that leads inside. (Note that there are two doors up there, but only one is unlocked.)
  • 5 of 5: Once you make it into the southern section of the keep, you can find levers with which to handle those big wooden doors that separate the keep sections.
