Under Lock and Key was a virtual representation of one of Arno Dorian's genetic memories, relived by a Helix initiate through the Helix Navigator.

Description[]

With the correct keyhole revealed, Arno only needed the key to the temple door.

Dialogue[]

As Léon jumped over the wall into the orphanage courtyard, Arno arrived.

  • Léon: (Hello!)
  • Arno: What have you been doing?
  • Léon: Nothing. Did you find the lock?
  • Arno: Yes. Now I need the key.
  • Léon: You know the soldier carrying the chest for the little commandant? I just saw him in the market.
  • Arno: (Thank you.) And I told you to stay here, remember?
  • Léon: "(Yes, sir.)"

Arno talking with Léon

As Arno left, so did Léon. Reaching the market, Arno found the lieutenant with his men.

  • Arno: There you are. Now lead me to the golden key.

Arno tailed the lieutenant.

  • Lieutenant: Alert me if you see anything unusual.
  • Soldier: Yes, sir.

The lieutenant entered a building and spoke with a raider.

  • Lieutenant: What do you have for me this time?
  • Raider 1: Silver, nearly enough to fill a chest.
  • Lieutenant: Give it to me.
  • Raider 1: The Commandant still suspects nothing?
  • Lieutenant: He is occupied in Paris. Your usual fee, plus a promotion.
  • Raider 1: Tres bon. A pleasure doing business with you.

As the lieutenant ran away, Arno chased and caught him.

  • Lieutenant: Guards! I will have you arrested!
  • Arno: You will do no such thing. Tell me the location of the chest containing the golden key or I shall reveal your thievery.
  • Lieutenant: I am merely seeking a harmless profit.
  • Arno: Like a rat hungry for apples?
  • Lieutenant: How did you know-
  • Arno: Surely the Commandant will find the comparison... enlightening.
  • Lieutenant: The chest is under guard within the caverns. Here.

The lieutenant gave Arno the key to the chest.

  • Arno: Merci. Now get out of my sight.

Entering the catacombs, Arno found the raiders' hideout. The raiders detected him.

  • Raider 2: Invader! We will find you!
ACU Under Lock and Key 3

Arno raiding the chest

Arno stole the raiders' loot, inciting a riot among several of them. This made his infiltration easier. He then killed an orator speaking to the raiders, causing a panic among those listening to him. Eventually, Arno found Napoleon's chest and unlocked it, taking the golden key within.

  • Arno: All that security for a key. What lies behind that door?

Arno escaped the catacombs.

Outcome[]

By blackmailing Napoleon's lieutenant, Arno was able to unlock the commandant's chest. In it, he found the golden key to the temple door.
