No, I appeared in the tunnels. I also saw the hole, but for some reason I can't see the door. The door won't open for some reason if it is by the hole. Maybe I will look again, but at least I know the circular room with the windows wasn't supposed to be entered from this side.

You have become a disciple among the Thief ranks, able to understand it greatly. But your thoughts of the Eye are flawed. The sealed section of the city was not nature, that was an undead invasion. The Trickster doesn't have connections with the undead or he could have just had the undead inside the cathedral take the Eye. The undead somehow had some connection with the Eye though, being able to be notified by the Eye when it was stolen by Garrett.

I have finished level 6 (not much for plot here, it is more interesting tidbits about the bank than the overall scheme). I got most of the loot, missing one secret with probably the rest of the loot in it (I missed 18 of the totat loot, pretty good for a level with over 2000 loot). You are exactly right about Victoria though, she wasn't part of the ritual and kinda disappeared after Garrett's eye was ripped out. Not to spoil anything, but I have assumptions if something is connected like that. The intro movie has an odd ending that reminds me of the pagans. We still have pagan quotes and they are treated as important. There is some more stuff that I saw in the upcoming levels (from where you are, though I am only a level away at this point).

I really want to know the connection between my two favorite levels, because in-game it makes absolutely no sense and I have been questioning it for years. Level 5 and 6 I pretty much understood, though I didn't know about Garrett doing it all as revenge on the Sheriff. I had absolutely no idea why he wanted to blackmail him.

It is sad, but even now I still enjoy Thief 2. You would think my love would die, that I would be disappointed, ect. Nope, I still say this is my favorite game. I love the non-linearity and the addicting strategy involved (getting through the bank felt like a good challenge, I had to keep backtracking in different directions to approach a situation from a different angle). Now I get to hang out with ol' Benny after all these years. I wonder if he is still drinking...

No Jan. Good, so far it sounds like a great improvement over JK. Better levels, expansive, no Jan. Now we just need Destruction or some other cool force powers and I might be able to get into it (please don't tell me we got pansy Katarn with his healing ability)!

EDIT: Argh! Went to the store, it seems like the money at the bank had a glitch and was doubled. If I wanted to I could take advantage and probably buy the entire shop. But I am so professional I guess I will handicap myself and not take advantage of this lucky glitch by limiting myself to what I got in the last mission.
