Servant of the Lake Stone Tablet Puzzle Solution
How to solve the Servant of the Lake stone tablet puzzle — collect all three tablets, then arrange Tree, Nest, Egg, Bird and House, Cabinet, Bottle, Droplet.
Three stone tablets need to be collected from separate puzzles, then slotted into a lockbox and arranged into two picture rows: Tree → Nest → Egg → Bird on top, and House → Cabinet → Bottle → Droplet below. This is a two-stage puzzle — first the hunt for the tablets, then the assembly.
Stage 1: collecting the three tablets
- Roach puzzle tablet: solve the roach-herding puzzle described on the roach puzzle page — clearing it awards one tablet.
- Mailbox tablet: open the mailbox on the right side of the scene with the small key you've found, and take the tablet inside.
- Flower pot tablet: rearrange the flower pots so the white flowers sit on the left (ascending by leaf count), the pink round flowers sit on the right (also ascending by leaf count), and a plain green stem sits in the middle. Getting this arrangement right reveals the third tablet.
Stage 2: assembling the lockbox
Once you have all three tablets, slot them into the lockbox and arrange the pictures into two rows, confirmed directly from a video walkthrough:
| Row | Order |
|---|---|
| Top | Tree → Nest → Egg → Bird |
| Bottom | House → Cabinet → Bottle → Droplet |
The two stages have different confidence levels
The final picture arrangement above is confirmed directly from a video walkthrough and matches the earlier written guides exactly. The flower-pot arrangement in Stage 1 hasn't been independently re-verified on video, so if that specific step doesn't line up, double-check the leaf-count ordering described above rather than assuming the final picture order is wrong.
