Once you’ve collected all six shards, it’s time to put the mirror back together. Start from the edges of the mirror, fitting the pieces one by one. It’s a fairly simple puzzle that requires a bit of patience to figure out which piece goes where, but you’ll eventually get it.

Your job isn’t over after fixing the mirror, though. Take a look at the plate in front of it: you’ll be prompted to place an Apple on the plate next to the mirror.

You have two options here. You can place the Rotten Apple, located in the Gardens outside the Hotel on a bench. Or, you can place a Ripe Apple, found in the Lakeview Hotel’s Hall on the second floor. Both are valid answers for the puzzle, so use whichever you have on hand or is closest to access.
