Listen to a conversation with Rose concerning "unwanted guests" before diving straight into action. Carefully approach the first soldier encountered on a small bridge. The game will inform you that this opponent won't leave his post. The most obvious method of play is to eliminate this person, however you can as well try and spare the guard's life. If you choose this method of playing then you must remember about not ending up in the soldier's line of sight later on in the mission.

It doesn't matter if you've killed the first guard or not, because either way you should proceed to your right. You will encounter two other soldiers here. Familiarize yourself with a new hint which will be about avoiding objects on the ground. Stepping on these objects (in this case it's garbage) will be noticed by Eric's enemies and can prevent him from making a surprise attack.

If you don't want to kill anyone then you should proceed to your left, heading towards the nearby stairs. Otherwise approach the soldier standing closer to you. Wait for his colleague to start moving left before doing the silent kill (don't try drinking blood from this guard!) and don't forget not to step on the litter found on the ground. Once the enemy has been killed quickly drag his body to some quiet place.

Now you can focus on eliminating the second guard who's patrolling the upper path. If you have Shadow Kill or Shadow Grip abilities you can obviously attack him from the distance. If you don't have these powers or if you don't want to waste Vitae points on a simple kill then you should move closer to the stairs located to the right. Hide behind cover, move closer to the upper path and wait for the soldier to start moving towards a large crate. Quickly follow him and perform a silent kill or feed off of him.

You may finally proceed towards the pavilion you've been ignoring so far (if you didn't kill anyone yet don't forget about avoiding all of the guards!). Once you're close enough to the entrance you'll watch a short cut-scene featuring soldiers talking to each other. Two of the guards will remain here afterwards and their third colleague will go back to the building.

As soon as you've regained control over Eric make sure that you're still hidden behind a small brick wall, because otherwise you may be easily spotted by one of the soldiers. If you don't want to kill any of the guards you must wait for them to turn the other way and then quickly move behind their backs (consider using Shadow Leap ability, but make sure to choose your destination very carefully). I don't recommend acting this way, because you would be forcing yourself to deal with addition problems while exploring the pavilion, especially since it has glass windows and you can be easily seen by the people standing outside.

A much better idea is to kill both soldiers stationed in front of the pavilion. Wait for the enemy soldiers to go their separate ways (the guard standing closer to the entrance must go left). Approach the enemy found closer to your current position and attack him when he's next to the stairs (screen above). Once you've eliminated this person immediately start dragging the corpse, leaving it on the stairs or somewhere else where it's safe.

Remain close to the stairs, hide behind cover and wait for the second opponent to go left again. Follow this person and perform a quick execution (don't try feeding on this guard, because you may be heard by other enemies!). Just as before, start dragging the body (you may leave it on the stairs).
