The Second Floor

I know that there's a room above the second floor, but I don't know how to get there.

  1. You'll need to use the closet/elevator to get there.
  2. Have you ever been on top of the closet, by walking through one of the closet doors when the elevator is one floor below?
  3. If the closet moved to the second floor while you were on top of it, you'd be at the attic!
  4. However, there's no way to activate the elevator controls from the top of the closet.
  5. Pull one of the closet pegs and read the description very closely.
  6. The closet doesn't really move until a peg is released. When it snaps back up to its angled position, the elevator is activated.
  7. What you need is a sort of timing device. Something to hold down the third peg for a few turns, giving you the time get [sic] on top of the closet.
  8. Examine the bucket. Carefully.
  9. It's rusting through on the bottom, and therefore bound to be a bit leaky.
  10. You can fill the bucket with water at "Garden, North."
  11. Bring the closet down to the cellar. Then go to "Garden, North" and fill the bucket. Quickly return to the closet. Hang the bucket on the third peg. Go to the foyer, open the closet door, and walk through it. If you're on top of the closet, just wait a few turns for the closet to move upward. If you didn't end up on top of the closet, you probably weren't quick enough in bringing the filled bucket to the closet. (Using the patio door is a good idea.)
