Solve the Open Hand Temple Murders Walkthrough
Gather Information About the Murders
Start by talking with temple members. There will be one in the kitchen, another in the room with the Father’s body, and a few in the temple’s main room.
Find the Lock to Fit the Flower Key
When that’s done, head into the kitchen and interact with the Wooden Ornate Hatch to reach the temple’s basement.
Travel to the southern room filled with lots of books. Jump to the rock in the southeastern corner. From there, you can jump to another rock, leading to a hidden area. Follow it around to find a group of four doppelgangers.
Defeat them, then loot the flower key off of them. Head down in the area near the crane to trigger a skill check to spot a hole. Interact with it to find the murder weapon.
Investigate Fraygo’s Flophouse and Find a Use for the Flower Key
Return to the temple and exit through the main door. Head north, passing through the South Span Checkpoint, and continue north. You’ll want to enter Fraygo’s Flopohouse behind the merchant Thordic Shedeveer. Head up to the top floor and use a ladder to reach the attic.
Interact with the wardrobe there to enter a secret room. Look for the Bloodstained Parchment on the table and grab it.
Report your Findings to Investigator Valeria
Head across the street and enter the Sharess’ Caress to find Valeria on the second level. Speak with her to go over the new evidence, and the quest will be completed. You’ll get a pass to the Lower City as a reward.
