"This gate is opened elsewhere", but where?

[María]

I'm in Fort Ontus to speak to Carinya on mages guild quest. I'm separated
from her by this gate, can't find any levers or ropes in the cavern just in
front of the gate, have tried backtracking, nothing obvious. So from where
is this gate opened?

Much obliged for any assistance.

IIRC, all of the gates in that place are either opened with a key or by
levers on the ground on one side of the gate or another. Sometimes,
these levers are hard to see and, in some cases, there have been
reports of them vanishing :-(

RWG (I dunno what you can do about the latter, luckily it's never
happened to me)

I do recall pushing a light blue button or two on the wall to open
"elsewhere gates". It may look like merely decoration at first.

Still no luck, can someone suggest a console command?

as far as I remember it really should be straightforward..

says this:

'Your next target is Fort Ontus, which can be easily reached via a trip
to Weatherleah or Fort Diritch, and a short trek west into the hills.
Upon entering the Fort you'll find a number of guildmates arrayed,
suspiciously, like necromancers tend to be. They're not hostile, and
point you towards Caranya, deeper in the Fort.

Enter the second section and make your way forward. You should be able
to catch a glimpse of Caranya through barred gates to a lower chamber.
Few well-intentioned people stand around shrouded in Necromantic mist
like that. If you can do so, unlock one of the gates and drop down to
speak with Caranya below. Otherwise, continue onwards until you find a
portcullis and a nearby lever leading into Carany's chamber.'

Thanks for all the help guys, didn't realise there was another way around...
