Spoiler: showAlso, when you learned the Royal Melody, did you go back and use it on the other two note doors? A key is inside one of the rooms. Some keys are also outside the level itself (On the roof in a chest, for example).

Yes crmage, I did. I got the one on the ledge close to the entrance of the castle, I got the one on the balcony, I got ONE of the note doors (where's the other?)
I'd rather not use that extra key unless I REALLY need too.
There's three note doors total, and they're located on the Basement, 1st, and 4th floors. The one on the 1st floor has the key. It's near the grand staircase that gives you quick access to all the floors.
I only remember two other keys that are easy to miss without the Ladder.

If you got all three of these keys, I don't know where you could look, except to check all the rooms again. All the regular keys are in visible chests, so you only need to find the chests. If it helps, by now you are able to explore every room (if not finish them) except those in the basement.
AHA! I belive that second key you listed is it. I've opened every RM door now. That miniboss behind the basement one surprised me though.
Hmm... I can't seem to find the wall you're talking about... Can you give a room description?
Remember the room with the sign about the ammunition room? From there, head west, then south (the vertical hallway that consists of two "rooms" if that helps).
Ooooh... I got the ladderr and 2 keys, then headed into the basement and used them. Then I reached the Big Key's chest... and couldn't open it.
I got the key on the third floor and the key after the cave (Both requiring the ladder)
Is there a third requiring the ladder, or one I missed in the basement?
You're missing the one at the top floor (5th, I believe). The staircase is east of the room with the note doors.
Alright, I beat level 3 and am now searching for more HCP and the Magic boomerang. I'll be back when I need help in level 4. Thank you, Carmage :)
Magic Boomerang - Vasshinghon Flows. Good luck exploring. You can also get a new magic upgrade here.
Lots more HCP open to you now as well.
