You need: Hammer · Broken lockpicks
Several damaged lockpicks combine into one that works.

You need: Acid recipe · Salamander flower · Witch flower root · Flask of water
Three ingredients are needed before the acid can be mixed.
Show the full solution

Scene 02
Unlock the three shields
Work through the sapphire, ruby and emerald shields individually. Their ring settings are not interchangeable.

Turning one set of rings also moves the other set, so the tree and wolf shields have to be aligned step by step.

The ruby continues the shield alignment from the previous step.

Return to the ritual with its ingredients after the shield route.
