Hey was playing and able to get up to obtaining the Carved Key! I don't know how to progress further tho, as I can't seem to get the chest locked with some scales under it in the door outside of the tower. Any hints regarding that chest?
Thanks so much for playing! The scales have to be balanced, with an item that can be found in another gate (hint: what did the Egyptians weigh hearts against? And what were the wings of another named gate made of?)
Fantastic work! I especially liked the puzzle where (spoilers)
