Centai symbol

[Bad2DaBone]

So where's that symbol near the water I'm looking for?

So much.... water.... in game.

[Bad2DaBone]

Nm, I found it.  Oi, these vague puzzles....

Game gets real confusing starting when that green bikini bitch starts forcing you to go crest/key-hunting.  I'm almost in the crypt though.

Same here, could you help me out?

The letter from the Centai priest describes the symbol being located "beneath fertile lands" and "near water."  You're looking for an underground location beneath an area with fruitful plants/trees and a water source.  It's actually not too far from where you start the game.

I could tell you directly but well, that might be spoiling.

And the second part of the shield too (the one in the waterfall) Now I need two more (I Think one is in the fireplace of the mansion but i tried to burn some random things in there and nothing happened). I have the little key from the necklace too, but don't know what to do with it)

Examine the key in your inventory, and you should get a clue as to what to do with it.  You need to burn something that will create a lot of smoke to get rid of the wasps.  Not all flammable objects will create enough smoke though.

Hooray! I'm in Act II 

[Klytos]

Congrats!

I too am looking for the crest piece in the fireplace. So far I have placed down some hay and sparked a small fire but I need more smoke. I have tried using wood ,oil ,rubbing alcohol ,and the grab spell but alas I still don't have the piece. May I please have a hint?
A few more questions:
1. When is Prepostero going to explain himself? About killing the guys pet?
2. Can I open any doors in the graveyard?
3. What steps should I take to get past the voices in the sewer with the gelatinous cube?
4. And what will be done about the language? (JK).

Wet and/or living plants make abundant smoke.  Find a moist plant to mix with the hay.  Or alternatively, buy something in town that produces a lot of smoke.

You might want to ask the beekeeper to the east of volksville. She might know what to do to get rid of wasps.

Okay I am talking to japsworth outside but don't know what to give him. I tried rubbing alcohol an empty mug and a potion.
The last crest part is under fertile grounds with moisture. I have looked by the farm ,the well , and the herbalists garden but no luck.. Could it be by the sewer?
I don't need a spoiler just a hint please , and thank you!

[Bad2DaBone]

You should explore more areas and talked to more people.  Are you sure you've spoken to everyone in the game that you can so far?

[E]

 yes I have spoke to everyone so far.

[Corrigan]

yes I have spoke to everyone so far.

Have you checked you're still wearing the necklace? You may need to walk right up to things to check them.

[Bad2DaBone]

Ah, well you might want to look some more in Tyr.  There are some areas there that it's easy to overlook the first time there as they're kinda-somewhat hidden in the background.

[E]

I'm still wearing the necklace. I checked in Tyr and spoke with everyone I did find my way to the grasslands via the aqua ducts but that's it.

From the list of places you told us, you've already been to the right place for the piece, but as I said, you need to walk right up to it with the necklace on for it to register.  I think that might be your problem.  I'm avoiding saying which one because you just want hints, but come back if you're totally stuck and need me to just tell you

[Lambonius]

Just knock Japsworth around a bit.  No need to give him anything.  Depending on your class, it might be possible to scare the shit out of him, too.


As for the "fertile lands" piece.  You need to go underground in a specific area.  This one is kind of a classic trope from old Sierra games.
