The Ages

Stoneship Age

As you've brought the pages back to the library, you've heard both Sirrus and Achenar plead for you to free them - and accuse each other of heinous crimes. With the third page returned to the blue book, you discover that someone has been murdered - but who? Perhaps when you retrieve the pages from this fourth and final age you'll uncover the secrets they've been hiding from you at the same time they've begged for your help.

Go to the ship and click on the book to arrive in the Stoneship Age. From the ship you can travel left across a pier to small wooden structure covered with an umbrella, to the right toward a lighthouse, directly forward into a dark passageway, and forward to the right to find another ship, another passageway, and steps leading up to a telescope. Climb the steps leading to the telescope and use the hand icon to rotate it until you see the lighthouse. Note that the center of the lighthouse is 135 degrees - that number comes in handy later.

Go in the lighthouse and you'll see it's filled with water and that there's a key on the gangway you can't pick up. Your first step toward getting the pages here is to drain the water from the lighthouse. Return to the ship and continue on to the small structure with the umbrella; when you get there, click on the rightmost of the three buttons to drain the water from the lighthouse

 
  Click the button on the far right to drain the water from the lighthouse so you can descend the stairs there.
   
 
  Click on the valve at the bottom left of this chest to let out the water inside, then click it again to close it so it won't refill when you flood the lighthouse with water again.

Now return to the lighthouse and descend the spiral stairs. At the bottom you'll see the drain the water went through, and beside it a chest. You can't open the chest, but you can click on a valve on the bottom left to release the water that's inundated it. After the water drains out, be sure to turn the valve back so water won't enter it: An empty wooden chest will float, but one full of water won't (I know, I know, water wouldn't come back in through that tiny valve, but it's just a game!). Go back to the umbrella-covered structure and click on the rightmost button (actually any button will work for this part) to fill the lighthouse with water, then go back to the lighthouse to discover the chest floating alongside the gangway - right beside the key. Click the key to open the chest and grab the key inside, then use the key at the top of the stairs in front of you. Now you can open the hatch and climb into the top of the lighthouse.
