| Objectives | |
|---|---|
| 1 | ![]() Once inside, go to the elevator room to your right. Aim your gun at towards the pillar, and shoot down the Crystal Fragment. Go back to the entrance hall, and to the door on your left. Head down the stairs through another door into the Hall of the Four. Before anything else, head to the door with the yellow door as there's a typewriter there you can save your progress on. |
| 2 | ![]() In the Hall of the Four, interact with the double doors in the middle to trigger a cutscene with the Dimitrescu Daughters and Lady Dimitrescu. After the cutscene, interact with your right hand to escape the hooks. |
| 3 | Inside the room, pick up the Crimson Glass treasure from the desk, then head out through the doors. |
| 4 | ![]() Open the gates covering the fireplace and crawl through the gap. Get the Maroon Eye Ring off the door to open it. Examine the Maroon Eye Ring in your Key Items inventory to receive the Maroon Eye for later. |
| 5 | In the next room, break the glass on the shelf near the door to get a Crystal Fragment. |
| 6 | Go through the double doors to return to the Hall of the Four. You can opt to visit the save room again from here, where you'll now find the Duke. From the Hall of the Four, go up the stairs into the Main Hall, then up the next flight of stairs. |
| 7 | ![]() From the stairs, take a right and go down the hall until you reach a door. Examine it and use the Maroon Eye to open it. |
| 8 | Once you open the door and enter the room, you will be attacked by one of Lady Dimitrescu's daughters. Go through the door and run down the hall to safety. Tear off the wood blocking your way and drop down the hole into the basement. |
| 9 | ![]() Crawl through the hole at the end of the path to the Tasting Room then go down the stairs. The stairs will lead to a room with a lit brazier. Swing the light to the other two braziers, by pushing the light with your body, and open your way forward. |
| 10 | Go past the first sets of cells and enter the left cell once the way is blocked. Continue into the Chamber of Solace. |
| 11 | ![]() As you enter the next area, Moroaica will attack you. Kill or evade them. Go to the end of the Chamber of Solace and up the stairs to encounter Bela. |
| 12 | ![]() Keep running away from Bela and remove the wood blocking your path to trigger a cutscene. After the cutscene, you will have to defeat Bela. To defeat her, hit the other windows and lead her into the cold. In her weakened state, aim for headshots and keep shooting until she's beaten. |
| 13 | Pick up the Crystal Torso she drops and leave through the opened door. Pick up the Sanguis Virginis in the kitchen and exit back to the Main Hall. |
| 14 | ![]() Go upstairs to the second floor and into the Wine Room. It will be the first yellow door you see in front of the stairs. Place the Sanguis Virginis in the ornate display to open a secret door. |
| 15 | In the secret room, open the red chest to receive the Courtyard Key. Your next stop is the Dining room back down the first floor. You may opt to visit the save room on your way to the Dining Room to save your progress. Be wary too as Cassandra may attack you on your way to the Dining Room. |
| 16 | ![]() In the Dining room, look up above the dining table to find a Crystal Fragment. Shoot it down to pick it up. |
| 17 | ![]() Use the Courtyard Key to open the double doors in the Dining Room and exit into the Courtyard to finish this section. |

After the boss fight with Bela be sure to grab the LEMI - Recoil Compensator from the Kitchen.

Bela will attack you as you exit the Chamber of Solace. Run through the open doors in the next area and up the stairs, tearing down the planks for the real fight to begin. Immediately shoot or swing your knife at the second window to break it, making Bela vulnerable to damage. Fire off some shots from any of your current weapons and she should go down quickly.
