Alright, let's talk about Herbert Glover's Manor. It's a pretty significant spot in Oldgrove, and you'll need to explore it thoroughly. Think of it as a multi-level puzzle box. ## Description Herbert Glover's Manor is a stone building with three main areas: the ground floor, the first floor, and a basement. Keep your eyes peeled as you move through each section. ### Ground Floor When you first enter, the front door is unlocked, but the back door on Dunsany Ln is locked tight. Be ready for a fight as soon as you step inside – a few Wylebeasts are waiting to greet you. There's a trunk in the entryway you can loot. Moving on, you'll find a dining room with a table, some statues, a gramophone, and taxidermy. The next room has two statues; one is missing its head. You can interact with the head of the other statue. On the table in this room, you'll find a forty year old newspaper article and a Letter to Mr. Throgmorton. The door here is locked for now, but don't worry, there's a way to open it later. In the kitchen, it's mostly empty, and that back door remains locked. The key to opening that locked door is in the basement. Once you find the _Statue's head_ in the basement, bring it back up and place it on the headless statue near the fireplace. This will unlock the door, revealing a room packed with bags and another trunk to loot. ### Basement You can access the basement from the entryway, just down the stairs from the main entrance stairs. At the bottom of the basement stairs, there's another trunk to loot. The main basement area has barrels, some furniture, and a large statue of a snake-like creature coiled around an obelisk – possibly a nod to Dagon. You'll find some Antipsychotics on a small table near this statue. Through a doorway, you'll find a desk. On it, there's a First aid kit and, importantly, a _Statue's head_. There's also a briefcase with masks inside and some books about clairvoyance and dreams. A wine cellar seems to be off to the side. ### First Floor The first floor is quite the art gallery, filled with portraits, statues, and suits of armor. In the main room, to the right of the entryway, there's a yellow vase. You'll also find a lootable trunk in front of the fireplace. Further in, there's a display case with jars. At the back of the room, you'll see another display case, a statue of a man with a trident (likely Poseidon), and a grand piano. To the left, there's a seating area and a statue of a woman with a helmet (probably Athena). Sadly, you'll find the deceased Herbert Glover here, stabbed in the chest. > " _Eyes still wide open. Guess he didn't see the killing blow coming._" In the side hallway, you'll notice mirrors on the left and a large painting on the right that you can investigate. On the left, you'll find a _Picture of a mirror_ on a scrap of paper, a crowbar, and an empty space on the wall that looks like it's missing something. > " _Looks like they're short a full set. One of the mirrors was taken._" At the end of the hallway is a room with a safe. You can investigate it and see signs of it being picked. To the left of the safe, there's a mirror with bullet holes that you can inspect. On the other side of the room, a desk has a mounted magnifier. Using your Mind's Eye on this magnifier will show you a vision of Herbert Glover himself inspecting the missing mirror. Past this room is a bedroom with a fireplace, bookshelf, armchair, and a bed. ## Loot Here's a quick rundown of the loot you can find: - Trunk in the entryway (Ground Floor) - Trunk at the bottom of the stairs (Basement) - Trunk behind the locked door (Ground Floor) ## Related Cases This location is tied to the case A Delicate Matter.
