Walkthrough for Part 33 of Thief 2: The Metal Age, covering the Caves, Old House, Lighthouse, Observation Room, and Cargo Staging Area, with loot and lore locations.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Immediately move away from your starting position to avoid a patrolling guard. Enter the nearby hut to find two water arrows, two fire arrows, and a Construction Journal. Use the journal's hint to climb the back of a machine and pull its lever, generating a SILVER NUGGET (50/0/0|50) from under the drill.
  2. 2
    Follow the tunnel to a vertical cave. Ride the lift up one or two levels, or climb vines and platforms (don't miss the hanging gas arrow).
  3. 3
    On the middle level, hide from a Watcher and deal with a guard. On the top level, there are two more guards. To make this easier, use blackjack. Find a way onto the wooden beam above the camera, pull the lever to turn it off, then drop down and move the WORKSHOP LEVER to the UP position to open a GATE.
  4. 4
    Proceed through the Workshop Gate on the right. Inside, find more SILVER NUGGETS (150/0/0|150) in the corner left of the Child's bay.
  5. 5
    Climb the rope through the well and exit near the Lighthouse. Turn east, then north to find the Old House.
  6. 6
    In the Old House, there's a guard on the porch and one on the ground floor. Next door to the ground floor guard is a PURSE OF 20 GOLD (170/0/0|170) on a table, and two PAIRS OF COINS (210/0/0|210) on the counter. Three moss arrows are attached to the ceiling.
  7. 7
    Upstairs, two guards are conversing; one will patrol afterward. Shoot out nearby torches to pickpocket the other guard for 30 GOLD (240/0/0|240) [PP 1]. Climb the ladder in the hallway to confront another guard with a PURSE OF 100 GOLD (340/0/0|340) [PP 2].
  8. 8
    [SECRET #1] Go east into the other half of the attic to find a letter from Nathaniel. Find a red button on the floor near a crack. Pull it to trigger the secret.
  9. 9
    Go down to the floor below the attic. In the east of the building, find a crawlspace containing four water arrows. A secret panel will open, revealing a Healing Potion, 3 STACKS OF COINS (376/0/0|376), and the NAVIGATION GLOBE needed for [OBJ 4].
  10. 10
    Return to the ground floor and take the south door to the Lighthouse. Wait for the guard on the spiral staircase to pass, then go upstairs. Pick the COLD STORAGE SHED KEY from the Mechanist at the top of the tower [PP 3].
  11. 11
    Go back down and through the east door to the outside. A Child and a stationary guard are present, possibly another patrol guard. Go south to the COLD STORAGE SHED and open the DOOR.
  12. 12
    Inside the shed, use LEVERS to find LOTUS [OBJ 2]. Speak to him and take the WHEEL PEG from his bench. You can kill him or not. A lever under the bench opens the door.
  13. 13
    The Mechanist on the platform outside guards a Breath Potion and two flash bombs. Return to the Lighthouse's bottom level and enter the central room. Use the WHEEL PEG on the missing peg on the WHEEL on the wall to ACTIVATE THE ELEVATOR, granting access to the Secret Underground Base.
  14. 14
    You'll arrive at the Observation Room. Pull the LEVER by the window to reveal the Cetus Amicus, which generates two new objectives and opens the nearby blast door [OBJ 6, 7].
  15. 15
    Pass the Watcher camera by the Observation Room using the run-under trick. Be wary of the guard patrolling the next tunnel.
  16. 16
    In the Cargo Staging Area, a large Child moves around. Climb the east slope to find an open crate with a flash bomb and three water arrows.
  17. 17
    Move west and climb a ramp to find a Child guarding the PRESSURE DOOR CONTROLS. Pull them to open the DOORS TO SUBAQUATIC POSTS 1 & 2. A lone guard farther on may make entry difficult.
Tips
  • Water and moss arrows are valuable for buying equipment for two missions, but you'll find plenty of extra items later, so most loadouts are fine.
  • You can reach the attic early by firing a vine arrow at a high wooden wall, jumping onto the roof, and then dropping through ceiling holes.
  • The window in the Observation Room is not glass; you can jump out and board the submarine, though there's little immediate benefit.
