It's not in a secret, if that was the intent of the question. Btw where have you found yours?

You need to get to the other side of the gate to do that.

That comment was in reference to the part where

you used the key to open the wall so you could "undo" the lever you pulled earlier while still being able to get through.
Seeing how you said you found the icefall hammer on your steam post, you passed that already. Now you need to

press the left eye of the stone head as there is a secret button there as hinted by the note.
I am totally lost. Are you referring to

a face at the end of a corridor in the lvl2 "mosaic", near a secret after putting something into an alcove? If so, I have already tried clicking behind its left eye but nothing happens. Also I can see no way to proceeding there if I pull the wood lever again. The way just closes.

The question is WHERE, not HOW ;) I found the other one in an alcove in the SW of level 4, after solving the open the iron door/lure the crab on a pressure plate/wait on the right spot for the right beam that closes the pit problem.

About second gem, if I am not wrong, on the same level where you got the demon head where u put the gem, it is there.
You will find it once you cross the 4*4 pits opening/closing puzzle.

You can access this area of the level from the area where u need to solve the 5 levers puzzles /teleporting to different places...
Maybe it helps

How/Where to get on the other side: you can't do it on this level. Thinking 3D helps ;)

Thanks numberouane.

I feel like a moron now. I was clicking the wrong eye. Indeed you are looking at the face like it was a mirror. DOH!

Well I reached the apex but I am not playing anymore. That part is simply insane. When you die about 100 times, difficult becomes unpleasant.

On one of many tries I managed to put all 4 keys and get the treasure just to die afterwards
. I give up.

Besides my mage was some sort of fire specialist which sucks for the end part.

U need to escape this place thats "all"... it is tough but u almost made it... DONT GIVE UP NOW!!!!! ;)

One trick if u have enough health is to jump below once u got treasure. there, rush in teleporter which brings u up ur back to the exit => moving backward twice and u win...

No ur mage is key because u can cast fire shield. Mine was air magic and I finish it ... My daughter finishes it with fire magic guy... :)
