The Watchmaker Hints
What do I do in the courtyard?
1 of 10: At some point in the game you'll notice Raul run out there and seem to disappear. Perhaps you can do the same.
2 of 10: Have you taken a good look at the lion statue in the back?
3 of 10: In particular, look at the lion's mouth (you'll have to switch to the first-person view). Your character will notice some sort of mechanism there.
4 of 10: Perhaps you can put something in the lion's mouth.
5 of 10: If you don't have something token-like in your inventory, come back to this area later.
6 of 10: Put a medallion in the lion's mouth. You can make these from the red and blue phials in the arcanum. A passageway will open, and Darrel will enter.
