To progress through the Treasury in the Castle, you need to place four Swords in the correct positions on four different paintings. You can take the Golden Sword from the painting on the left-hand side, then the Rusted Sword from the one to its right. On the other side of the metal gate blocking your path, take the Iron Sword. With only three Swords, you're currently missing one.

Look to your left beyond the metal railings and you'll spot the fourth Sword. To access it, pull the chain on the left-hand side and then shoot the symbols for the snake and the bird. This removes the metal railings and allows you to take the Bloodied Sword from the centre.

You must now place the four Swords in the correct paintings on the wall. From left to right, the order is as follows: Iron Sword, Golden Sword, Bloodied Sword, and then Rusted Sword. You'll hear a click in the mechanism if you've placed the correct Sword in the painting. Once all four Swords have been put in the right place, the metal gate in the centre will move and allow you to progress.
