um...wait a second. I may just be incredibly stupid here, but how the hell did Daniel even get out of the castle in the "good" ending? The only way out is the elevator and it's crashed. Did he climb up the whole shaft or what?

Edit: Oooh...so him walking through the castle towards the exit afterwards, that is all just happening in his head before he dies? Man, I feel really stupid now...
