Complete the House of Pleasure mission in dishonored. Learn how to get the safe combination and find collectibles like Runes and Bone Charms.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Enter the Distillery door and make your way back to the area where you poisoned the still. After speaking with Slackjaw, find a valve in the room to the left of the main area's entrance. Turning this valve lowers a door.
  2. 2
    Inside, you will find a Blueprint: Incandescent Paste (1/3). Exit and turn right to find a now-open door at the bottom of the stairs. Look on the bed inside for a Bone Charm (1/5).
  3. 3
    Weepers will now be active. To avoid them, use Blink to reach the rooftops and return to the entrance. Wait out of sight for the thugs to eliminate the nearby weeper, then return to the distillery district.
  4. 4
    From the distillery door, Blink up to the roof opposite and to the right. Look back towards the distillery entrance and slightly above to see a balcony with an open door. Shoot the patrolling assassin on the balcony with a sleep bolt when he appears, then Blink up.
  5. 5
    Inside, to your right, is a boarded-up room with a weeper. Shoot between the boards with a sleep bolt to incapacitate it. Bash down the door to find a Rewire Tool and a Bone Charm (2/5).
  6. 6
    Return to the opposite roof and enter the nearby open window. Deal with the assassin inside. Be aware that Assassins patrol the alley outside the distillery, so stick to the rooftops to avoid detection.
  7. 7
    Exit through the opposite door and Blink to the next room, which overlooks Clavering Boulevard. The marker for Galvani's Flat is on the opposite side. Drop from the roof to the vent, follow it left around to the balconies in front of Galvani's place. Jump onto a balcony and take out the guard. You can enter to continue Slackjaw's mission.
  8. 8
    Upon entering Galvani's Flat, you'll see two guards. Climb under the table in front and wait for them to separate, then take them down individually. The safe to the right can be opened with the combination 2-8-7, or by finding a note in the apartment.
  9. 9
    Exit and climb the spiral stairs. At the top, an open door leads to Slackjaw's informant, guarded by two enemies. Wait in the shadows to the right of the door. When the guards separate, grab the one who walks out past you and deposit him nearby, then deal with his companion. Take the note from Slackjaw's informant's hand.
  10. 10
    Explore the rest of the floor for a spiritual elixir under a pigeonholed shelf and a health elixir in a glass case. In the secret room behind the bookshelf at the back, you'll find a Rune (1/5). Exit through the nearby door to a balcony overlooking the boulevard and backtrack to Slackjaw.
  11. 11
    After speaking with Slackjaw, you'll receive a new objective: visit the Art Dealer in the Golden Cat. Bringing the safe's combination back to Slackjaw will allow him to deal with your two targets, which is essential for a no-kill run.
  12. 12
    Return to the Distillery District and backtrack to the balcony outside Galvani's office. Blink down to the alley below Galvani's Flat and proceed down the stairs at the end. Head left along the road and up the stairs at the dead end. You'll see two guards mugging a woman.
  13. 13
    Saving the woman rewards you with a backdoor key to the Art Dealer's Apartment, but this is very difficult to do without being detected. It is best to avoid this if attempting a stealth run. Blink across to cover (press the cover button to crouch behind walls or objects) and then to the wall on the far side. Climb the stairs here.
  14. 14
    There are two options to enter the Golden Cat:
    • Option 1 (Using Slackjaw's Key): If you completed Slackjaw's tasks, you have a key for the Captain's Chair Hotel. Blink to the top of the guard post opposite the Captain's Chair Hotel door (below and left of the 'R.Williams' sign). Wait for the guards to move, then Blink to the door and enter. Proceed to the end of the corridor and look in the room to the left of the stairs for a Bone Charm (3/5). Climb the stairs to the top and find the door leading to the Golden Cat. Once inside, head forward and around the corner on the rooftops.
  15. 15
    Option 2 (Stealth Entry): Blink to the top of the guard post opposite the Captain's Chair Hotel door. Wait for the guards to move, then Blink up to the balcony to the right of the 'R.Williams' sign. Walk around the corner, and when the guard tower is not looking, Blink left around the corner and enter the door. Once inside, Blink up onto one of the nearby rooftops.
Tips
  • Sticking to the rooftops is generally safer to avoid the Assassins patrolling the alleyways.
  • The safe combination 2-8-7 can be found on a note within Galvani's apartment.
  • Completing Slackjaw's first side mission provides a key that grants easier access to the Golden Cat via the Captain's Chair Hotel.
  • Saving the woman being mugged provides a backdoor key to the Art Dealer's Apartment but is a high-risk maneuver for stealth players.
