************************************************************************
IX.  ROSSLYN CHAPEL (1 Secret)
************************************************************************

For being the last level of the game, this is certainly the easiest.  There are no guards, no crazed monks, and no friends to stab you in the back anymore.  In fact, there is no creeping, fighting or hiding at all in this level.  You are just here to follow clues and solve puzzles, just the way The Da Vinci Code was intended.

First go into the foyer of the church (the area where the front doors are). Examine the Baptismal there and take the STONE LID from it. 

Turn around and look behind you and examine the wooden chest, being sure to examine the drag marks on the floor in front of it.  Now you can pull the wooden chest away from the wall and find a loose stone underneath it.  Pick up the loose stone and you will find a DAISY DISC.

Go back into the main area of the chapel, and go over to the red curtain on the right wall.  Pull the rope to open the curtain.  Place the STONE LID in the empty space you find here and you will retrieve the LILY DISC.

Now return towards the rear of the church and examine the 4 Angels on the back wall.  Grab the box of matches from underneath the "Faith" Angel. 

Now go to the red curtain on the other side of the sanctuary and pull the rope to open that curtain.  Use the matches on the candle you find there, then read the inscription for a clue.

Return to the back wall and closely examine the "Truth" Angel and help Sophie retrieve the ROSE DISC from it.

Now go up to the front of the sanctuary and examine the 3 altars on the front wall.  There is nothing in the left and center altars, but in the right altar you will find and read the "Ceiling Journal".  Note the following things from it:

Daisies = Innocence
Lilies = Purity
Sunflowers = Adoration
Roses = Love

Stars in the sky, crescent moon, one small star, a dove, a sun and an open hand underneath.

Now you can walk around this room and let Langdon tell Sophie about the 3 pillars at the front of the room, or you can just move on to the gate with the Star of David on it so you can get out of here.  Examine the Star of David gate and you will see the various characteristics on it with a little space underneath it.  We are only worried about 3 of them.

Put the DAISY DISC in the "Innocence" space

Put the LILY DISC in the "Purity" space

Put the ROSE DISC in the "Love" space

A cut scene will open the door and you can now go down into the Sacristy.

As you enter the Sacristy, read the memorial on your right.  Go up to the front of this room and observe the globe on the right.  Be sure to spin the globe so that you find that it is missing a piece.  Now return to the end of this room and go down the short hallway you find on the right.

Examine the "Bleeding Angel" on the wall and retrieve the ODDLY SHAPED STONE. This is, of course, the missing piece of the globe you just looked at, so
return to the globe and put the ODDLY SHAPED STONE into the globe where it belongs.  The globe will now open and give you the STAR DISC.

Go back down the short hall past the "Bleeding Angel" and into the next room. In here you find a stone slab and a wicker box.  Push the wicker box out of
the way to reveal the trap door beneath it which you can't open yet.

Examine the stone slab and use the STAR DISC in the appropriate place and another scrambled picture puzzle will reveal itself. 

This one is REAL EASY because the borders of the picture make it obvious where most of the pieces go, and then you just have to arrange the center pieces.  It should be fairly obvious that you are assembling the picture that was described earlier in the level in the "Ceiling Journal".

When the puzzle is completed, the trapdoor will unlock and you can open it and enter the final area of the game.

Before you do anything else in here, go to the far corner of the room near a stack of chairs and find the last secret of the game, **DA VINCI'S CODEC ATLANTICUS**.

Now all you have left to do is examine the two murals on the wall in here and then examine the photo album and its contents.  When you've done that, put the controller down and watch the closing cut scene.

Congratulations, you have completed "The Da Vinci Code".
