Ok, this is defeating me. (SOLVED)

HOW the heck do you get into the room underneath Mordus' house that has Earnan and Aileen in it? I can't find any switches, I tried using spells on the wall thinking it was an illusion, I even discovered the crypt that you unlock by lockpicking the skull, but that had no other exits, so it doesn't lead there.

There's a lever on a column (IIRC) right near the bottom of the stairs, side facing the ladder. I'm not sure you even need Wits to spot it, though it's technically hidden.

isnt there a lever just to the right of the skull?

I don't see any levers.

[Serrassi Effect]

try raising your wits. clear mind/encourage/various foods should provide enough buffs.

Try a wit potion?

I have 19 wits, is that not high enough?

if you cant find the switch, apparently it isn't.

[DogtagsUK]

yeah it should be. Try clicking on all the lanterns etc. I cant remember exactly where it is as I didnt have wits that high iirc. Im sure it was on the pillar to the right of skull though.

I don't think that is the issue, I just jumped to 26 wits and I still don't see it.

[Demon of Razgriz]

Ok, I just found it, it is near the wooden platform stairs, hidden (not wits hidden) just really hard to see.

Yeah, sorry, your directions confused me as there is no ladder in the room.

Ah. The one to access the area. :) Just teasing, trying to save you ten minutes of scouring the room.

The lever is at 501,727, left hand side column as soon as you enter the place.

This lever is obnoxious to see, especially since it doesn't show up with [ALT]. Finally found it after reading this discussion, screenshot linked.
