I'm in the valley of the dying things, and can't seem to activate the special item that brings down the magic barriors.

Thanks.

hey I had the same problem recently. It is totally solveable. The stone in your special items is the stone that lets you get into the school. The opening stone is a stone that is in your normal inventory. Hope that this helps.

Edit-welcome to the boards-have fun, don't spam(too much), and "leave your sanity at the door" for the cliche welcome.

To be perhaps somewhat more clear, in order to pass the green gates, you need an item called an "Opening Stone," not a special item called an "Opening Stone." If you need help finding it, post again.

Ok, thanks, figured it it out. Very confusing way to set it up.

Is there only one place to use the opening stone (the library) or are there other places? I've toured around and can only find the one place, but the library didn't get me far.

The library is the only place, as far as I know, but you need to get into the library in order to do something, or rather get something, so you can advance the story.

You could use the opening stone in any place with the green glowing gates that cannot be passed through otherwise.

The opening stone is also required to get into the Control Chamber in the Altered Beasts sector, but that's just redundant since you must've had the stone to get into the Library, and I think you must have gone there in the first place to get the aforementioned sector.

Offhand, I remember there is a section in the Experiment Halls where you can use the opening stone, but you need to get through a tough door. I especially remeber the goodies that were left behind by students many years ago in the Student's Quarters.

Also there are uses in the Visitors quarters, the holding cells, and the place where the dragon is. All very nice I'm sure

In other words, it has a lot of uses!
