You're only allowed in one section at a time until you advance in the game and more open to you revealing higher level chests, but they cost more. So spend wisely at the start.

It works out quite well though, as if you get to the end and haven't brought any of the fire magic, if you open the #3 chest of it, the cost is the total of #1 + #2 put together, so it'll unlock them both. So you can either wait to the end, or buy them separably, it doesn't mater. The cost is spread out between them depending on which ones you've opened and brought.

ok. thanks. also, can i go back their any time or will it take me their automatically every once in awhile? in the game, im only where you have to find the librarian (i found him, then saved and got off) but im trying to get married to one of my chick friends on xbox. i have a ring. but dont know how to do it.
your help would be really appreciated.

If you don't rebuild old bowerstone, I can confirm that you CAN still get the silver keys there

To contribute a few things I found out about the game...some tips to make it easier:

1) "Tough Love" is very easy. You just need to purchase a significant amount of real estate when ever you get a chance. Money is basically useless, except for buying some potions in the game anyway. Jack up the rents/prices so earn the most money every 5 minutes. Then just leave your Xbox on over night. I left mine on one night and earned 12 million. I had plenty to fill the treasury for the achievement.

2) For "Henry the VIII", it is quicker to actually just marry people that already love you just because you are nice as ruler. As long as you make good decisions, by the time you finish the story, you will have many people that already have hearts above their head to marry. I found 4 characters in the Dweller Camp ready to marry without any effort. It also should be noted marriages to other Xbox Live players did not count towards my 6. That should be noted in the guide.

3) I am not sure about the difficulty being a 6/10. None of the achievements are that hard, they just take time. I havent completed the game, because I dont care to waste time trading weapons or outfits with people online, but I would only rate the achievement difficulty 2 or 3.

Overall, I am glad to finish this game and never play it again. I am not sure why everyone likes these games so much. I would much more enjoy them if they were first person and not third person. Even in game when you can hold the LB to go first person, I can already see the game being way more engaging. The gameplay is blah, the level designs and story linear, and the graphics are poor, especially the textures and scenery. I particularly hate developers that throw in collectibles to extend the life of their game. It took me just about as long to collect all 4 types of collectibles (160 in total) as it did to actually beat the rest of the game. You couldnt possibly expect to find all of them without some form of a guide. That is when they become annoying. Anyways, good luck if you decide to play this game. I am sure by the time you complete it, you will never be happier to finish a lack-luster, sad excuse for an RPG.

You may also come across others on your journey (optional quests) that aren't so story based, so this may go up a bit. If you don't come across some of the others, don't worry as you can pick them up at any time during the game or after the story is completed! See Misc for more details.

All optional quests are MISS-ABLE, if the quest giver dies. This is critical in Millfields, as the werewolves attack anyone if you do not engage them right away, and there are several NPC's with area-unlocking quests there : Animal Liberation, Hobnobbing With Hobbes, and Restoration. If even one of these quest-givers dies before you do the quest, you will not be able to complete the gnomes, keys, and books quests, as the Hobbes cave, the locked area of Bowerstone Industrial, and the island of Driftwood all contain multiple collectables.

For me it was the stupid Hobbles cave, making keys and books uncompletable. Do all these quests as soon as they unlock, and do not leave the area (save) if a quest giver is 'missing' from where they should be

98% of the time you'll be asked to go to the Dwellers Camp to dig something up or hand something to somenoe, so its all fast travel!

Just to let you know about the spelling mistake.
