REALM OF THE SUN: LEVEL 1
SAVE YOUR GAME HERE. There’s no turning back now! Walk forward to the corridor, then down to the bottom, and break the vase.
Walk to edge of the water and kill the snake monster. Walk forward into water and kill another monster. Now your ROPE AND HOOK will flash, so climb up the wall. Break vase, and take MEDALLION. Climb back down the wall, leave this water room, and go back to the corridor.
Walk up a bit, kill guard, break vase, and take all goodies. Head left to end of the corridor, and kill 2 more guards. Head up, kill 2 snake monsters, break vase, take all goodies. Follow path up, kill guard, break vase, and take all goodies.
Now take lower path heading left. Follow path round and kill snake monster. Take path heading down and kill another monster. There’s a lot of monsters here! Go down into room, and hear the statues whispering. It’s quite spooky here, but these are the guardians you heard about earlier. Take TABLET OF KNOWLEDGE from far end of the room, then leave the room.
Make your way up path on the left, killing monsters on the way, until you reach the top left corner. When you see door at the top, you don’t know the answer to his question yet, so you can’t open the door.
Take corridor leading right, kill guard, and take goodies. Follow path right a bit, and when you get the chance, make your way back down to the bottom.
Take middle path leading up into a room. Kill all monsters in the room, and pick up all the goodies. Nothing else here, so just leave the room.
Return to the corridor, and take path on the right leading up. Kill all monsters and take all goodies as you head up. Work your way towards top-right edge of the MAP. There is another locked door here, and a spirit standing next to it. Click on spirit, and he will open the door for you, telling you this is the Hall Of Truth.
Enter through the door, and SAVE YOUR GAME HERE. There are 3 rooms in front of you - this is kind of a ‘3 Trials’ area. Enter room on your left, and see a demon floating in mid-air. Walk towards the demon - don’t worry about the lack of floor, you won’t fall. Now the demon will turn into a KEY, so take KEY OF TRUTH, and SAVE YOUR GAME HERE. A path is now revealed, so when you’re ready, leave the room.
Back in the ‘3 Trials’ area, enter middle door heading up. There is a sword here. Walk towards the sword, and it will turn into a demon. Use your FLAME SWORD to kill demon, then leave the room.
Back in the ‘3 Trials’ area, enter room on the right. There is a golden sword here, floating in mid-air. Walk towards it. Again, don’t worry about the lack of floor. However, when you reach the sword, it disappears. It was an illusion. Oh well, just turn around, and leave the room.
Check the MAP, and make your way down the right edge, until you get to a locked door. You already have the key from the ‘3 Trials’ area, so use KEY OF TRUTH in the door, and then walk through the door into the room. Take SWORD AND SHIELD OF TRUTH, and watch as your TABLET gets inscribed with something. When you’re ready, leave the room.
Make your way back to top-left corner of the MAP. The door here is still locked, but use TABLET OF KNOWLEDGE on the door. Connor speaks the password and opens the door. Now walk forward to Level 2.
REALM OF THE SUN: LEVEL 2
SAVE YOUR GAME HERE. Wow, look how far you’ve come! Follow path up & left, until you reach a locked door on your left. Now arm yourself, and kill the 3 guards in front of you. Continue up & left, killing all guards along the way. When you’ve reached that square section with the vases at the top-left, take upper path heading right. In the corner, pull candle on the wall. Now walk up a bit, to the door, but you don’t know the answer to his question yet.
Take path heading right, killing all guards along the way. Make you way to room at top-right of the MAP. Egads, this is the vision you had back in Swamp Land. This is where those vile creatures are created. Time to put a stop to this! Use MASK OF ETERNITY MEDALLION in the cauldron to purify it, and it becomes a HEALING POOL where Connor can drink to replenish his health. SAVE YOUR GAME HERE. When you’re ready, leave the room.
Make your way down the right edge of the MAP, killing more guards, until you see a spirit guarding another locked door. Click on spirit, and he will unlock the Hall Of Light for you. Enter through this door, into the room. Try to read the book on the pedestal, but it’s too dark. Push pedestal to middle of the floor, where it’s light, and Connor automatically reads the book. Take KEY OF LIGHT that appears. When you’re ready, leave the room.
SAVE YOUR GAME HERE, and make your way to centre of the MAP, that you haven’t explored yet. There is a locked door here, but you should already have the key, so use KEY OF LIGHT in the door to unlock it. SAVE YOUR GAME HERE, then enter the room. Click on knight at far end of the room, and watch as your TABLET OF KNOWLEDGE is inscribed with something. When you’re ready, leave the room.
Make your way down again, back towards the entrance. The door that was previously locked is now UNlocked. SAVE YOUR GAME HERE, and enter the room. Connor automatically opens chest at far end of the room, and takes the final MASK PIECE. Arm yourself, approach the doorway, and kill the 2 guards. You now have all the pieces of MASK OF ETERNITY. It’s been a long, hard battle, but it’s not over yet.
Return to top-left area of the MAP, where the door asked you a question. Use TABLET OF KNOWLEDGE on the door, and Connor will speak the password. Walk forward, into Level 3.
REALM OF THE SUN: LEVEL 3
SAVE YOUR GAME HERE. This is it - the final level. Make your way to top-middle of the MAP, and find the locked door. There is a spirit standing next to the door, so click on him, and he will unlock the Hall Of Order for you. Enter the room.
There is a giant puzzle with 9 stone blocks in middle of the floor. It’s basically a giant slider puzzle - the aim is to push the 9 blocks around, recreating a picture of the Mask Of Eternity. Now this puzzle stumped me! Theoretically, I know what to do. But while pushing the blocks around, I kept finding that I couldn’t push the blocks any further in the direction I wanted to push them. And to be honest, I just found it too tedious after a while. I hope you have more luck than I did.
