(DLC)(Spoilers) How do you go down "the well"?

[allocater]

I am in the tower (world2), but the staircase further down is blocked by the alarm.

I have no more "there is more here"-markers and only the staricase-well and vault have a question mark image.

I know I probably have to blow out the alarm-light from the blow-thing on the top that can be reached with the elevator, but how do I make the elevator come down?

I also know how to access world1 and world2 after they die, but don't see a beneft about it.

Here is a little hint: Maybe the alarm only triggers unter certain circumstances. Think for a moment, what can you do with your artifact? Maybe *something* so that the alarm does not trigger?

Hint 2: The whole game is a lot about light and dark, seeing and not seeing things (or being seen)...

There's an easily missed critical piece of information here: Try to open the sealed vault in the dream world.

[allocater]

Even with conceiled light, the bridge to the staircase is always lit and triggers the alarm.

In the vault, I can only open seal 1. (because there you can see the locking mechanism moving) seal 2 and seal 3, I have no idea about the code.

So I assume the staircase is still question mark, because I didn't get past the alarm. And the vault is still question mark, because I can't open it fully yet.

We are talking about the second dream world part where you have to find the way down into the central well, right?

Ok, here is what you need to do:

Obvious hint: The lights here have to be OFF. You know how to do this if you have seen certain dia slide.

If you did what you saw in the slide and if the lights in the houses are off, you can go down to the well.

You have to evade one alien there first, but the way down the stairs is actually easy by simply concealing the light and quickly moving in /out of sight.


There is also another way to not triggering alarms which you get later or have to find out yourself.

Have you found the 3 hidden locations in the real world ? Each ine gives you a hint for one of the dream worlds.
Also, have you explored all the way to the right in the dreamworld ? There is a stair down that leads to a raft.

[allocater]

Ooooh that door is a different door from the dream-doors and candles have the same effect as lamps!

When the vault showed the vision, I was like "yeah, yeah, I already know that you turn off the lights at the door with the planet". I also thought candles don't really have a gameplay effect like that, only the lamps.

Now I have lots of new material to continue. Thanks.

How do I evade the alien, exactly?

For the well in particular, there is a little bit of a roundabout area you can lure it into before going around. It takes some doing, but it can be lured from a distance so you can go around it.
