Secrets

 * 1) At the keep, head to the southwest side and take a teleporter. Head east and head on the wall at the south end to the east. Enter the southeast hole and use a switch to lower the south wall to get large health bonuses. (sector 231)
 * 2) Enter the keep's main entrance and look for a lion switch high on the west wall. Shoot it, head up the steps, and get a doom sphere to the east. (sector 600)
 * 3) Head northeast of the keep walls and enter a small cave to find the brown sentient mushroom. (thing 1431)
 * 4) In the hall with crushers northeast of the largest room, head east and up, then slightly west and north. Lower the wall for some ammo (varies depending on skill level). (sector 1022)
 * 5) Head north from Secret #4 and then east. Lower a wall to the south between the next two doors and the south entrance to the crusher area to find large health bonuses and soul globes. (sector 1876)
 * 6) In the southeast part of the main keep, head to the steps at the north end, climb them, then lower the south wall. Head south to the lift to get a soul sphere. (sector 1311)
 * 7) In the southeast part of the main keep, head to the northeast side and head north, but quickly head back and get to the northeast wall that is lowering. At the bottom, get the improved vision. (sector 1340)
 * 8) Head up the wall that lowers to Secret #7 and take the teleporter to get a rejuvenator. (sector 1336)
