This was commented on in the architecture thread as an especially satisfying puzzle, and I'm frustrated that I can't see it.



I'm resigned to missing what everyone else sees with ease. A gentle hint, please? Thank you.

You're doing the right thing.

You just need to be more efficient.

A hint to make the wraithwing manipulation part easier.

Thanks for the encouragment!

And I was in the process of writing the most earnest and humble explanation of how it still wasn't getting me where I needed to be on time, and then the AHA! lightbulb went on, and I realized OK, I was an idiot, but better to see the light late than not at all. Thanks again!

Appended 20 minutes later: I know this room was singled out as a favorite in the initial reactions to the hold, and I can see why. But having just completed the level, I have to say that 1N's solution is one of the cleverest I've seen. It's the sort of idea I'd been hoping to see used somewhere, and now I have. Really nice.
