How in the #$^#$ do I decode the deadman's log to find where the captain buried his treasure? I've found absolutely nothing to help me with it. (Isn't there a decoder ring somewhere?) Aside from this, I'm progressing nicely, although I can't get through the jammed door in the belfry, or quite a few gates. I've gone through the king's bedroom, gotten the dagger and book of Ramm. I've got the silver key for the cage, but I can't get the password! Help! Chri. +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ Je boit, donc je suis!

The Key of RAAM is in a room in the north part of the main level of the castle. It is behind a gate, and you have to search the walls next to the gate to find a button that opens that gate. Then search in the NorthWest corner of the room. Once you get the key, explore the area past it, find the Jailer Key (or is it Dungeon Key?) somewhere in the dungeon area, and use that to open some of the gates that go into the jail area. In there, you will find the Decoder Ring, which you need to decode the Deadman's Log. More direct spoilers by e-mail, if you like...

To get to the decoder ring you will first have to find the altar and make sure you also have the book of Ramm to figure out how to get into the dungeon area. Once you find the decoder ring and decode the Deadman's log you will be able to give Queequeg the answer and then receive the password. You don't need to ask for the password because if you can't get into the dungeon then having the password into the Captain's Den is for naught. As for the belfry, you will have to find the Bell key which is also in the dungeon. Hint: to get to the altar you will need to find the Gold key, which will allow you to get the Key of Ramm to open the doors for the altar.
