That was hard work, but I'm sure I forgot some keyes, especially in Despise (the real Despire, not the name-swap the programmers accidantially did). However, I right now have no patience to go through it again.--Tribun (talk) 15:32, 18 March 2019 (MDT)

Great work gathering the key locations. I can only imagine that must have taken a lot of time and field research, so to speak.
Despise and Shame aren't swapped in U7, though; Shame is just considered the western region of Despise. Both dungeon systems are mapped as Despise in the clue book, which is further reinforced by this quote: "A book I once read in the Lycaeum told of a magical flying carpet that was lost in the river area near the western entrance to Despise."
I imagine this article might have been confusing for someone who's only ever played U7 and isn't aware of the historical discrepancy, since Shame is never mentioned in the game. Hopefully my edit satisfies both sides of the issue. --Terilem (talk) 22:57, 18 March 2019 (MDT)
I was making this comment to say that I hadn't found a use for the blue key found on Cynthia's body, but I see now that it opens the southern door of the farthest left room of the Mint. It's essentially the same key as the tan key that's found in her room. The tan key found on her body opens the two doors to the southern room, and the yellow key opens the door to the western room. Thanks for making this. It's the most comprehensive list I've seen so far. --FragmentalStew (talk) 07:35, 16 September 2020 (UTC)
