Murder in the Abbey Hints
What's the deal with these two clocks inside the offshoot rooms?
1 of 9: Notice that you can control one of them by using the switch nearby.
2 of 9: However, in the other room, that switch is broken. You will need to replace it.
3 of 9: Find an item here in the ossuary that can serve that purpose.
4 of 9: It's built like a switch. Solid, long, and thin.
5 of 9: Perhaps from a human body?
6 of 9: However tempting it might be to break Bruno's arm and use that, I'd advise finding an existing bone.
7 of 9: There's one in the main hall. A thigh, to be precise.
8 of 9: Grab it, and shove it into the broken machine. You can now control both clocks, advancing each by one hour at a time.
9 of 9: The time on the clock is the key to solving the puzzle to allow you to progress further.
