When you run up to the top of the tower, the dragon should break through the wall, giving you a space to jump into the inn next door. From there you'll eventually get your hands untied.

There are a couple of guards, one or the other has a pointer over his head. He keeps telling you to follow him If he gone ahead, follow to where the pointer is, then follow him. He takes off your bonds fairly soon.

Tried both things. I think I jumped into the inn as I found a bedroom, but no one was there so my hands are still bound and I can't figure where to go from the bedroom except outside which puts me in danger again. Also followed the guard or who ever it was with the arrow. He won't talk to me. Blond guard or is he someone else. Anyway I am still bound. When I try to activate anything i get " your hands are bound". I must be doing something wrong. How do I talk to someone?

If you followed the guard to where you met up with the blond again then you are at a choice. Each of them is standing by a door. You should be able to walk up to either door depending on which you choose to follow from that point. You should be automatically taken inside if you get close to the door by either of them. Either one will cut your binds once inside. The intro is pretty linear from that point forward.

After you jump into the inn, you jump down to ground level, and you should see the guards rescuing a kid. You then follow one of the guards to the keep, where you get your hands untied.

jumped wrong

figured out my problem. I was jumping into the house next door and not the inn towards the back. So when I came out the door I was in the wrong part of town. Finally got to the keep and then technical problems started and I could either look down or up but not straightforward. Do not know if it is my computer as I do not recall doing anything strange, so I am going to wait for the patch.Thanks to everyone for the help.

Just start a new game. You haven't got far, so no loss, and you now have the knowledge you didn't have before. Or, if you don't want to do that, just move forward into the last door. Hopefully the pov will go back to normal once you are through it.

You may also want to check the gameplay settings. I found that with the mouse speed turned low (game default), looking up and down was very difficult and felt sluggish even in comparison. When I turned up the mouse speed, the movement felt far more natural.

The one the guard leads you to. It's more of a dark place in a wall than a door, actually. At least - it is in my low settings game! Just walk forward into it. The guard will follow shortly afterwards.
