Obsidian Hints
How do I get out of here?
1 of 9: You need to find two sources of oil.
2 of 9: First, you need to find the source that will let you go inside the castle.
4 of 9: Once you've done that, you should find a new source of oil underwater.
5 of 9: There's a topographical map on the scanner. It will help you find the coordinates to that source, if you just pay attention to the details of the geography.
6 of 9: Start by scrolling up to vertical position 5 and scroll a bit to the right. You'll see a cube that corresponds to the chunk of ocean that you lifted from the surface.
7 of 9: There's really no way to hint at the exactly location. Read ahead to find the position.
8 of 9: The oil source is located at 133-5.
9 of 9: Now, go back to the "drilling" tool on top of the castle, and enter the location there. When you press the button to drill for oil, you'll end up accomplishing everything you need to.
