Companions of Xanth Hints
What should I do with the metal switch on the wall?
1 of 4: Just flip the switch. A new one will appear.
2 of 4: Flip that switch to create yet another switch, and so on, until no new switches appear (for a total of 16).
3 of 4: Flip each of the switches back. They'll melt one at a time, and once the last one is gone, you'll see a big red button.
