Find the clue

In the Chapter 8 dining room, grab the Torn Book Page on the laundry cart in the middle of the room. It depicts a chimera — the mythological creature made of a lion, a goat (ram), and a snake.

The solution

Press the three fireplace buttons matching the chimera's animals: Lion + Goat + Snake. The order doesn't matter — as long as you select those three, the puzzle resolves. (A few guides list a specific order, but the trio is what actually matters.)

Opening the passage

Once the correct three animals are selected, the fireplace mechanism unlocks and a secret passage opens automatically. Move forward into the tunnels below the dining room to continue the chase.
