S3 M5: A Familiar Face

Sequence 03 Memory 05 -- A Familiar Face

Finding the Hidden Door in Sophia's Shop

When you arrive at the location for this memory you enter the home and bookshop of Sophia, the Italian woman who was a passenger on the boat we arrived on when the story first started.  You talk with -- and flirt with -- her, while turning on your Eagle Vision to look over her shop area.

In the next room an ornate section of what appears to be the wall reveals its true secret -- it is an escape passage cleverly disguised as a relief panel that, when you manipulate the rosette at its base, opens, giving you access to the Cistern passages.

Finding the Hidden Door in Sophia's Shop

If you did not play the previous games this is not going to be familiar to you, but if you did, you should remember this area, as it featured prominantely in the previous adventure in Constantinople.  This memory completes as the CS plays and you slide down the escape chute, landing in one of the many branching tunnels of the Cistern, walking forward to trigger the next memory.  It is a short -- but sweet -- memory.
