Murder in the Abbey Hints

How can I access the scriptorium?

  • 1 of 11: The scriptorium is only open to copyists of the abbey.
  • 2 of 11: Neither Leonardo, nor Bruno, is a copyist.
  • 3 of 11: But that doesn't necessarily mean that they couldn't learn the trade quite quickly, if the need arose.
  • 4 of 11: Particularly a young lad as sharp as Bruno. I'm sure he'd have no trouble!
  • 5 of 11: Speak with Marcello about the prospect of Bruno joining the order as a copyist.
  • 6 of 11: He will eventually agree, but will specify the tasks Bruno needs to complete in order to pass the exam.
  • 7 of 11: First off, he needs to find a copy of the Hortus Tuus, and translate its first page from Greek to Latin.
  • 8 of 11: And secondly, he will need to provide his own quill.
  • 9 of 11: If you have the translation and quill, you can speak with Marcello again and he will allow Bruno to take the exam.
  • 10 of 11: Bruno won't do hugely well, but Leonardo's very persuasive.
  • 11 of 11: Soon you'll both be allowed access to the scriptorium! :)
