Going back to the stables means you’ll have to choose the left door after leaving this hall. Talk to the coachman. Ask him about the Numbers and the Arsenal. It’s very important that you listen to his final sentence, because this is a clue on how to figure out the combination. Head back to the armory and click on the lock again.
You can’t guess the right combination right away. Like I’ve already said, you’ll have to make some preperations. Here’s the solution to this problem:
1) three times the nights with a white moon – Number of nights spent with Illona – 8954 (written on her coffin). You will have to multiply this by three – 26862.
2) two times the nights with a red moon – Number of nights spent with Moana – 12176 (written on her coffin). You will have to multiply this by two – 24352.
3) five times the nights with a black moon – Number of nights spent with Jada – 5777 (she told you that during the conversation). You will have to multiply this by five – 28885.
The coachman also said that you will have add these numbers together: 26682 + 24352 + 28885 = 80099. Input the final number (screen) and you’ll be allowed to inspect the armory.
Take two items from the armory – a Coat of mail and a Crossbow without bow string. There are some shields to your right (screen) and obviously you should examine them more carefully. You will receive a new report, regarding the Pelor shield. Your objective will be to find this artefact among other shields and you can use some of the carried documents to get additional clues.
Like I’ve mentioned before, solving this final riddle of the game will require you to familiarize yourself with a few documents. The shield you’re looking for is in the middle of the screen, however you will have to perform a few actions in order to full identify it. Your first task will be to start clicking on two crescents in the middle. Keep doing that until they’re facing each other (screen).
The second step in the identification process is to mess around with some of the circles on the surface of the shield. Click on the largest circle (screen) TWELVE times. Once this is done, click on the inner circle (the one with arrow icons) three times. If you’ve done everything according to the plan, a new item is going to be added to your inventory – Pelor, legendary shield.
You may exit this area. Go back to the door protected by one of Dracula’s mistresses. Open your inventory and choose the bowl filled with blood. Use the blood on the door leading to her bedroom. You’ll be rewarded with a very interesting cut-scene. Van Helsing manages to get rid of Jada (screen). Enter her bedroom without any other delays.
Examine the body of a young man. As it turns out, Jada has probably kept him as a slave and drank his blood. Pick up a Grease pot which can be found next to the body. Click on the nearest coffin and listen to what Van Helsing has to say. Follow his instructions and use an axe to destroy this coffin. You will find a few interesting items inside – a document called De Vermis Mysteris – Mysteries of the Worm and a Key. Make sure that you’ve read the book, because it contains some clues on how to defeat “the prince of darkness”.
