As always, click 1:06 to skip intro.
Incidentally, I think I've finally figured out how to get Vegas to stop giving me random black frames after this.

Date of release : 3 August 2000
Update :
Description : Based on the map for Garrett's Revenge, the Keepers
have a mission for you. You can do what you like,
break into buildings, steal anything valuable, knockout
who you want (except cops on expert), hack to death who
you want.
: Its an early spring evening, the sun has only just set, when you finally get to your destination, the Keeper's want you to find someone who has gone missing, the head Keeper of the local Keeper observation house has more details, you have been advised to meet him in a room that has been built over an arched area. You, as Garrett, has never been to this part of the city due to it being an over guarded area, due to it being next to the major shipping area controlling the current war. A curfew is in force in this area, anyone found on the streets after sunset is in serious trouble, a thief like Garrett, will be killed on sight. The last group of thieves that tried to plunder this area can be found spread around the city, their severed remains can be seen, hanging from spikes, as a warning to others.
Note : Play on Normal or Hard before trying Expert cos you can
die within 49 seconds when playing on expert.
There are 3 rules.
1. Save often.
2. On expert you can use your sword to defend yourself against the cops, but only if they attack first.
3. At the beginning, do not rush out into the light.
Beta Testers : Sneak, Lancer, MaD-SaM.
Special thanks : I used Totality's guide to 'Sources and Receptions, for teleporting and timing' to produce some effects in the mission, namely the bonus objective, and the non knockouting of the cops on expert, and the main objective. And thanks to the beta testers.

Known bugs : Some slow down, probably due to thief thinking something is dropping out of the level, speeds up after a while, (you've picked up the buggy object). Some of the AI's do not return to their point of origin when they flee, and are therefore in one of two locations. Some noise problems, has to do with the shape of some of the buildings. Some objects seem to hang in mid air, these objects have been identified as slowing down the level and have been moved out of the floor to stop them from doing so. The level takes a while to reload after you've died (stops loading for 30 seconds, I think its moving things
arround in the level)

Blah blah, you have the right to play the level, but not to use it as a base for other levels, blah, blah, nor may it be stuffed in a compilation on a CDRom or DVD, blah, blah, you may stick it on your web site as long as all original documentation remains intact.
You can not make any cash out of this level, cos I will be sorely pissed if you do, and Garrett will visit you on the darkest night, and pinch everything not nailed down, blah, blah. This level was not made and is not supported by Looking Glass Studios or Eidos
Interactive, so they won't have a clue what you're talking about if you ask them for any information.
