Remember, Remember... [ENDED - SOLUTION POSTED]

For those who are struggling after doing the crossword. I'd suggest just taking a step back to take a moment to stare at your completed crossword grid and the lock grid side by side for a minute.
Also, the second image is mostly just a meme and not that important.

Hmm - stuck on 1 across and 1 down. No clue on 6 across. (I put in canal but had to delete that, it never fit with the others I filled in). 6 across is awaiting 1 down but even then it makes no sense to me, lol.
Will keep working on it :)

Buuuuump

The lock had me, and then I had it ;)

Thanks for the puzzle! :)

only know 1 answer...
edit: turns out i put that answer in the wrong place thats why the others dont fit... now i dont know what to do after solving it...

Nice one. I actually stumbled on 1 across, did you mean "part of USSR full name: abbreviated"? Same in 6 across, I wondered how to fit 9 letters in 5 slots

Thanks for Skyrim!
