Introduction
Challenges are not difficulty-bound, so you can do them even on recrut. Remember - you need sucessfully finish level to unlock completed challenges.
I. The (not so) great escape challenge
There are six (6) journals on level.

1. Nearly at start of the level, when you enter this area, go along right wall:
First journal will be there:

2. Second journal will be after bridge, under stairway.

3. Third one will be in prison area, where you need pull wheel to open gate:

4. After climb on ladder, before courtyard, behind crates on left side:

5. Fifth one is behind barrel on right, in area with last prisoner (dwarf near him):

6. Near end of level, jump over barrel and go upstairs.
II. A fellow of infinite jest challenge
1. Pick up skull. It is under dropdown to prison area, where you will need to pull wheel:
2. And then place skull here. It is after courtyard with prisoners, but before dropdown to boss.
III. In history`s light challenge
This one start in second grim area. If you dont know where it is, then look on screenshot: in front - dropdown to boss, path to grim on right side:
To get challenge, you need pull 5 hidden books on bookshelves in specific order, get key, open door, get torch and light brazier in boss area, while holding torch.

1. So, first book to pull is in room with grimoire:

2. Second one in same room, left from exit door:

3. Third one - after exit from room with grimoire:

4. Fourth book is on second floor (on left of screen is way to boss):

5. For fifth book go back, it is on right from stairway to second floor:

6. After picking last book, door on right to it will open. Inside, pickup key:

7. Torch will be behind door (on left of screenshot):

8. Pick up torch and go to boss area. On left after drop will be brazier, light it up:
IV. Is that all you`ve got? challenge
Simply kill everyone after pulling wheel in prison area. Challenge will completed after death of last enemy. Last waves of enemies will be with chaos warriors.
V. Courtyard sprint challenge
Looks like timer start after first opened cage. So you can clear area and then spread, if in your team more than one player.
If you play solo, you can use handmaiden/battle wizard with double ult with 2+ concotion/speed potions (This method should work even if timer trigger changes). It is even possible with other classes with 2+ speed potions, but in this case I recommend clear area first.
There are nine (9) cages, challenge will be completed after last one.

Cage #1:

Cage #2 and #3:

Cage #4:

Cage #5:

Cage #6:

Cage #7:

Cage #8 and #9:

Cage #8:

Cage #9:
