Two Worlds (PC v1.0): Any% Speedrun in

EDIT: It was decided that setting up the door to walk through is included in timing. This run would be 2:06 instead of 1:53.
I found two ways to get past the door of the dungeon without killing the groms. You can see both methods used at the very beginning of the video.
1) You can simply open the door before the game gives you the first quest. I only tested it on v1.0 and v1.1 and it works on both.
2) Open the door then, quit out while it is opened. The game never 'closes' the door as long as it is still loaded, allowing me to walk through it once I start up a new game. This only worked for me on v1.0.
