St. Louis Cemetery 6th visit.{ Max. points = 10 }
***** Walk forward and then to the right so that you are in front of the Gedde-Tomb.

***** Press that button!
***** Gabriel is now inside the tomb itself but it is pitch dark in there. [+ 2 points]
***** From inventory take your Flashlight and move it around so that you can see everything inside. [+ 1 point]
**** In front of you are at least three groups of three drawers each, one on top of the other.
***** Examine each drawer.
***** Each one apparently has a memorial name plate and holds the remains of one of the previously deceased Gedde family.
***** The drawer which is second from the top of the second group from the left has no name plate on it but instead simply an etching of the Vevé inscribed on it
***** Open that drawer – Impossible… it’s locked!
***** Now look at the extreme left of the tomb – there are rows of skulls (an ossuary)… presumably those of Gedde ancestors, and mainly men – haha!!
***** Examine a close-up of this ossuary and you can see five green gems in the eye sockets of some of the skulls. Press them one by one and they disappear!
***** This is a puzzle but not too difficult a puzzle – howeverif any help is needed then see the following hints:-
(i) The five gems have to be pressed BUT IN A SPECIFIC ORDER!!
(ii) A crude method of solving the problem ……………
……………. There are 120 different permutations – i.e. the five clicks can be done in 120 different ways ( ‘orders’) and since each one has to be performed separately, this could take a very long and frustrating time!
(iii) However there is a MUCH better way!! …………… Look carefully at the third skull from the right on the bottom row. It has a cross on its forehead.
(iv) Remember how (some) religious people ‘cross themselves’. So copy that order.
(v) SPOILER – The correct order to click on the five gems is:- Top; Bottom; Left; Right; Middle. [+ 2 points]
***** As the last (fifth) gem vanishes Gabriel exclaims “One of the drawers popped open”.
***** Try the abovementioned drawer again – the one with the etched Vevé – it is now unlocked.
***** Open that drawer
***** SHOCK!! Mosely is lying inside the drawer!!!
***** Gabriel drops his flashlight in
consternation. In the dark, somebody gives him a sharp blow to the head from behind and he
passes out for a short time.
***** When he recovers there is nobody in the! [+ 2 points]
***** Open the drawer again – Mosely is no longer there. In his place is a man’s wallet.
***** Grab the Wallet – presumably Mosely’s. [+ 2 points]
***** In inventory, open the Wallet and take his ‘Americans Repressed’ Credit Card. [+ 1 point]
***** There is an orange-red coloured button on the far right wall of the tomb.
***** Press it and Gabriel leaves the tomb.

“The fourth panel shows a knife and a few drops of blood”.
