- For the holiday see St. Edgar's Eve.
St. Edgar's Eve is the third or fourth mission in Thief: Deadly Shadows. Garrett sets out to St. Edgar's Church to steal the Builder's Chalice from the Hammerites.
Overview[]
Garrett sells The Opal at Black Market Bertha's and gets a letter from Artemus. The Keepers need him to obtain two objects for further study: The Builder's Chalice from the Hammerites and the Jacknall's Paw from the Pagans. In return Garrett can listen to their prophecies. St. Edgar's Church is where the Hammerites keep the Chalice. The temple holds the crypt of some long-ago Hammerite hero St. Edgar. This day is his holy day and there is an all-night service. Hopefully the Hammerites will sit down praying rather than looking for Garrett.
Briefing[]
St. Edgar's Church. This is where the Hammerite fanatics keep the Chalice, a so-called holy relic. It's what the Keepers are asking me to steal, if I want to see their prophecies for myself. The Chalice might not be worth much on the street, but every Hammer church has a nice pile of wealth stashed away -- no reason not to fill my pockets while I'm here.
This particular temple holds the crypt of some long-ago Hammerite hero – St. Edgar. Today was his holy day, so there's an all-night service. That might work in my favor, if they're all sitting down praying instead of looking for sinners to smite.
Chances are, they'll have anything they think is holy locked up pretty tight. I'll have to make sure they don't do the same to me – I'm not interested in the Hammerite brand of justice.[1]
Objectives[]
- Break into St. Edgar's Church.
- Find and steal the Builder's Chalice.
- Once you have completed all your objectives, return to your entry point, the Front Courtyard.

Debriefing[]
Day 1[]
Now that I have The Chalice, I'm one step closer to the books in the Keeper library. Those prophecies had better be worth the trouble -- my little raid isn't going endear me to the Hammers.
Day 2[]
Now that I have the Chalice, I have everything the Keepers asked for. That earns me access to their library and prophecies. Funny how making the Keepers happy ends up getting me in big trouble with everyone else.[2]
Secrets[]
- At the south end of the west courtyard is a buttress with a flat top that can be climbed in order to reach the upper entrance to the factory.
- The pipes at the far end of the east courtyard lead to a small vent that opens onto the rafters above Greidus' chambers.
Easter Eggs[]
Trivia[]
- Map Inconsistency: When starting the mission the main face of the building is in front of you to the North, but when viewing it from the Stonemarket access point it is to the East.
- Spinning parts in the factory are not calibrated properly, and so will gradually rotate out of place, eventually jutting out perpendicular to their sockets.
