Tiny Key help

[Paban]

In one of the quests I had to free a captive from some sort of a house. I killed all of the enemies and aquired the "Tiny Key" from the strongest one of them, but I cannot equip it or press E on the golden door in order to open it. Am I missing something? Is it bugged? How do you use this key and free the poor NPC? ;(

I've only encountered gnomes in ball and chain, but if it's like them then you need to position right in front of the lock. Could also be various types of door need certain items to open (harp, spirit bell etc) and maybe opening the door will need one of these (sorry i can't remember which items for which kind of doors!)

You need the Harp to open golden doors. However to free the gnome, you will need to use that key on the ball and chain around his legs (targeting the ball and chain can a bit difficult)

Thank you very much! I find it quite funny and unintuitive to get items that are unrelated to the quest just like that, don't you think?

Anyway, thanks again!

I find it pretty interesting to have "puzzle items" needed or progression and such. But yes, it's not intuitive at all. There is a lack of directions and information.

One more slight little thing - you need the harp in order to access the ancient ruins, right? :)

Not sure what you mean, it's random
