Follow the banners with roses on them

A Plague Tale: Innocence – This starting point is from entering the university via the Hard Way (front door). Remember to explore the side where you would’ve entered, had you chosen the easy way. Since there are no collectibles or guards in the first section of either entry point, simply exploring both sections is sufficient. The other entry point has some resources: Alcohol, Sulphur, Salpeter and Fabric. Return to the main hall.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – As Amicia continues on the main path, she will notice the banners with roses on them, affirming that she is on the right track. Keep moving forward through the big door ahead, crouching.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – As Amicia enters the hall, the guards are faced away, so she can crouch to a hidden area as shown. Wait for them to conclude, then simply take out the remaining guard. The-Easy-Way ™. Now Amicia is free to explore, and can pick up Rocks, 2 x Episanguis, Fabric, Sulphur and Salpeter.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Now operate this cart, and move it under the broken staircase platform ahead, so Amicia can climb up. On the platform is a chest that contains Cord, Alcohol and Sulphur. Take that before going through the big door in the center of the platform.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – When the guards have stopped talking after entering the door, go down stairs, and take the helmeted guard out first, then the alchemist. In the lower section, Amicia can find some Sulphur, Alcohol, Leather, Salpeter, Rocks and Episanguis. Now go through the hallway door. shown to the right of the above screen.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – There are two guards here. You could take them out, or simply let the rats do the dirty work for you a few steps further, as you need to go where the rats are currently to pick up a collectible anyway. Crouch and pick up 2 x Rocks, 2 x Sulphur and 3 x Episanguis. Amicia notices the rats. You need to operate the light beam to let the rats have a path to the guards.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Amicia must move the light just enough to release the rats, but not so that they can reach her. Now, throw some Odoris on both guards. That will take care of both the guards, and clear a path through the rats for Amicia. But before going forward, go where the rats were trapped and pick up Herbarium 7: Daisy.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Once past the rats, there are items to pick up: Cord and Leather to the right of this juncture. Then go left to continue the journey.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Do not immediately enter this room – Amicia will get spotted. Wait until the guards moved on with the prisoner, then keep crouching from table to table, and into the room on Amicia’s right after entering.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – In this room, stay crouched, take the Rocks, then keep moving towards the back of the room. Pick up Alcohol, more Rocks and Fabric as you pass.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Here is a heavy guard facing you. Distract him by throwing a stone at the helmets behind him, then crouch further to the exit on the top right. There is Alcohol just before the doorway.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Keep crouched toward the back of the room. If you do not, the heavy guard will spot you. When you get here, operate the beam of light to make a path for the rats to reach the guards, and throw some Odoris at them. There is some Episanguis and Sulphur here too. When the rats have a clear path to the guards, one well-placed Odoris on the guard crouching before the nest is all it takes.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Before going through this back door, pick up some Episanguis. In the next room, Amicia says that she hasn;t seen any roses for a while, but that is OK. Just pick up the resources (Alcohol, Leather, 2 x Sulphur, 2 x Episanguis, Fabric and Tools) here, upgrade your equipment at the workbench, and move on.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – After upgrading equipment and picking up everything, move up these stairs. At the top, a strange cutscene follows, and the prisoner is being escorted further. You now need to follow the prisoner, which is the next objective.

Follow the prisoner

A Plague Tale: Innocence – Keep left here, and follow the only route down. On the lower level, take out the two alchemists quickly. Now Amicia can explore the room and pick up some more resources: Sulphur, 2 x Salpeter, Alcohol and Cord.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Now crouch and continue behind these guards, who will walk off. One will stay behind. Take him out when the others have left, using Devorantis and rock, your go-to helmet killer. In this area, there are a few items to pick up: Curiosity 19: Study of a Skinned Person, Sulphur, 2 x Alcohol, Leather and Salpeter.

Save the prisoner

A Plague Tale: Innocence – Now follow the guards where they want the prisoner, Rodric, to open the door. This is a heavily armored guard, so you can’t take him out, but luckily, you can sling down this chandelier on top of him. Do it now, and quickly pick up what you can 2 x (Rocks, 2 x Sulphur and Salpeter) as Amicia gets acquainted to Rodric.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Be ready to sling the incoming guards (luckily all without helmets). You need to take down 3 before Rodric gets the door open. Now the next objective starts.

Follow the prisoner

A Plague Tale: Innocence – Follow Rodric until you start talking about how Rodric’s father was killed and Amicia’s parents too. At this time, Amicia can pick up some items inside a chest: Salpeter, Alcohol and Sulphur. Now continue to follow Rodric into the Library inside the Library.

Reach the book

A Plague Tale: Innocence – As Amicia and Rodric enters the hidden library, Rodric will point out the book Amicia is looking for. Before getting it, though, detour to the top left room of the library and collect Curiosity 20: Theriaque. Here Amicia can also pick up Cord and Tools. Hidden behind a large rock formation there is Salpeter and Cord. Behind another (smaller) rock formation there is Fabric, Alcohol and Sulphur. Now on to the puzzle.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Operate the West mechanism, and Rodric realizes that he will have to stay behind as a counter balance. When he lifted the shelf again, take the cart out from underneath.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Move the cart to under this section below the hanging cloth, and get up, go left, and push the cart at the top down. There is also Sulphur and Alcohol to pick up.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Now go down again and push the fallen cart to the other side of the room. Ask Rodric to operate the East handle, and the push the cart underneath the gap that opens and tell Rodric to let go. It should now look like this.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Amicia now needs to go back up on the shelf on the other side, and keep to her left when facing Rodric. When she gets to a blockage, she must ask Rodric to operate the North mechanic.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Once Amicia has surpassed the blockage, and is safely on the in-between part as shown here, ask Rodric to let go. Now the path is open for Amicia to get to the sacred book, the Sanguinis Itinera.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Amicia has the book, but trouble is not far behind. It is time to escape the university. After the cutscene, rud after Rodric. When you get to a closed door, Rodric will ask if Amicia’s ready. Open the door and let the fun begin!

Flee from the university

A Plague Tale: Innocence – When reaching this guard, you get to know a bit more about your new friend Rodric. He can take out heavily armored guards facing away from him. Tell him now to do so. After the guard is down, behind the obstacle above, is Sulphur and Cord to pick up. On the bench near the door is Salpeter.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Crouch into this room behind this bench and wait for the one guard to leave. Then sneak throw a rock at the helmets to the east of the archway ahead, to distract the guard. When he is faced away, tell Rodric to, like, take him out or something.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – For those of you familiar with gaming terminology, we have just found our Tank. After Rodric has taken this guy out, you can explore and pick up a few items: Alcohol, Rocks, Sulphur and Gift 10: Reading Stone. Open the chest there, and Amicia can also pick up Sulphur and Alcohol. Now move on to where the one guard left.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Here is the first occurrence of where our orphans will have to deal with two guards at the same time. Rodric will take out the one with the heavy armor, but Amicia must sling the one without a helmet at the right time. If she slings too soon, the armored guard will see Rodric. If too late, the guard without the helmet will hurt Rodric. Timing is everything. Once down, explore, and pick up Alcohol, Sulphur, Cord and 2 x Salpeter before moving on.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – The next door leads to the outside. The guard is heavily armored, facing you, and the rats can’t get to him due to the fire. Rodric comes to the rescue with the recipe for Exstinguis. Craft some, then put out the firepit next to the guard. The rats will do the rest. Now collect the Episanguis, 2 x Alcohol and Leather before moving on.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – In this section, keep to the right. The guard to the left you will deal with later. First take out the guard to your right. Extinguish his torch when he turns to guard the east end of the courtyard, so the rats will devour him. Now you can pick up 2 x Episanguis, Rocks and Salpeter.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Before moving on, our orphans must make a detour over the obstacle on the right here. Amicia must craft some Luminosa, and terminate some rats, so she can reach Alchemist Cart 3/5. This is a good time to upgrade equipment as well. Pick up Episanguis, 2 x Salpeter, 2 x Alcohol, Tools and Sulphur.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – After clearing out the cart, Rodric and Amicia must head straight through the fire to escape. Go up this garden section, turn right, over the obstacle near the rats, pick up the items (Sulphur, Alcohol and Fabric), then back towards the fountain.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – A second guard comes running into view. We need to get rid of one of them. Do so by throwing a rock at the helmets on the left side of this screen, then quickly take out the torch so the rats can deal with the guard. Remain behind the fountain or you will be seen.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Now move behind the other guard. Rodric can’t take him out because he is protected by the bush from the back, so distract him with a pot near the light ahead, and tell Rodric to take him out. Now you can explore this last area before entering the fire and pick up 2 x Episanguis, a Pot, 2 x Sulphur, Rocks, Alcohol and Cord.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Head into the fire now until you escaping the building.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Amicia will glance back once more to the devastation of the previous library and all it contains, and so Chapter 10: The Way of Roses will end.
