Nancy Drew 17: Legend of the Crystal Skull Hints

1 of 5: Not with the fireflies themselves, no; they're just kind of there.
2 of 5: But if you go through them to the wall and push aside the ivy, you'll find two stones in the wall you can push out.
3 of 5: And ... so what? I hear you ask. Well, why not go to the other side of the wall and see what it looks like from there?
4 of 5: Open the gate and turn left as soon as you can. The stones you pushed out will now provide a sort of stair that you can climb up and --
5 of 5: -- grab the lightning rod on the top of the wall. And again, so what? Well, just hold onto it; you'll need it near the end of the game, after you get all the glass eyes and are about to win the game.
