Notice to everyone: Faw pointed out to me that the puzzle was too difficult simply because the death sprites for Talon and Lance were cooked chickens (and also because I went along with that for a while D=). Anyway, he got it right. If Rad had made actual death sprites you probably wouldn't have had any trouble here. Blame him, not me.

I dragged the dead Birdclaw Brothers across the room and placed their wings to the surface of the "painting." The screen flashed again.
"Welcome back, Talon and Lance."
A console with a keyboard and various other buttons and switches slid out of the wall beneath the painting, and the painting itself converted into a computer monitor. The screen displayed the locations of booby traps and electronic locks throughout the mansion. At moment, only the Western door in the dining room was locked, and all traps were currently armed. According to the map, a secret passage in the room we were in led into the locked room, though I wasn't sure how to open it. This particular system was a little beyond my technological capabilities.
