Introduction =============== A game originally slated for Nintendo 64 almost four years ago, Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem is now on the Nintendo Gamecube. Feel free to submit a better, original introduction than mine to chiefwahoo3003@yahoo.com. ***************************************************************************** =================================== 3. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) =================================== ------------------------------------ Q: What exactly is Eternal Darkness? A: Eternal Darkness is a psychological thriller from Silicon Knights. It combines elements of adventure, action and RPG along with sanity effects to create a game and story that interwine very well. ----------------------------------- Q: Why is Eternal Darkness rated M? A: According to the ESRB (http://www.esrb.org), Eternal Darkness is rated M for violence, blood and gore. There is also an element of terror in the game. ------------------------------------ Q: Where can I get Eternal Darkness? A: Eternal Darkness should be available anywhere that video games are sold. However, some stores geared towards younger children such as Toys 'R Us may not carry Eternal Darkness. -------------------------------------- Q: How can I navigate this FAQ easily? A: If you want to find a section quickly, look up the number in the Table of Contents and search (CTRL + F) for the number. For lower extension number such as 7. or 9.2., try searching for the section title. ---------------------------------------------- Q: How many blocks does Eternal Darkness take? A: A game save file takes 1 file and 15 blocks and gives you six save slots. Options take 1 file and 1 block. -------------------------------------------------- Q: Is Eternal Darkness just like Resident Evil? A: No. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Q: Does it matter artifact should I choose at the end of chapter one?

A: One of Eternal Darkness' unique features is the sanity meter. As the meter depletes, strange things will happen. If the screen flashes white and your character says "This can't be happening...", then you have just experienced an insanity effect. If you have a question that is not covered in this FAQ, just email me at chiefwahoo3003@yahoo.com. ***************************************************************************** =========== 4. Overview =========== Masterfully weaving a wealth of technical and artistic innovations, Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem single-handedly launches a new genre of video games: the psychological thriller. Twelve different characters from throughout history wage a lonely battle against the forces of darkness. The titanic struggle rages in a dazzling array of exotic environments around the world. The secrets of magick described in the Tome of Eternal Darkness are vital for oppugning the forces of evil. Players can cast 120 different spells, endowing weapons with special powers, erecting barriers against unearthly beasts, even creating sentient avatars. Spells may be combined for maximum force. Legions of infernal enemies beset the lone heroes and heroines of Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem. Keep a wary eye on your Sanity Meter - if you don't destroy enemies quickly, you risk losing your mind. The descent into insanity begins slowly, with mild memory relapses and fleeting delusions, then plunges with horrific speed into manic hallucinations and death. Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem has a devious system for dismembering enemies with clinical efficiency. Players can methodically attack an enemy's body parts, including the head, arms and torso. Strike boldly - you may not get another chance. Courtesy of eternaldarkness.com. ***************************************************************************** ============ 5. Storyline ============ Long before humanity graced the Universe with its puerile ideas, the Earth belonged to another species. An ancient species bound by neither physics nor nature; purpose nor ethic. Through the passage of time, the relentless advance of ice and continental plate and other less fathomable reasons, these "Ancients" were driven into the recesses of our world. There they lie imprisoned until such time as the conditions are right for their return. "Oh oblivious, naive Humanity... How ignorant we really are - safe only in our blind "superior" view of the world. We are merely caretakers, for when the Ancients return we shall be swept aside like driftwood on the tide of destruction..." Hungry for dominance, radical organizations seek to restore the Ancients to their former station. For eons they have schemed and plotted in the darkness, attempting to bring these unholy entities into our world through arcane magicks - blood rituals, worship and sacrifice. Of these sects, little is known; those who learn their secrets tend to perish swiftly at their hands. Their scheming works to bring the return of the Ancients, and the extinction of humanity, ever closer. Yet not all hope is lost. The fate of Humanity depends upon the actions of a chosen few. They are average people, unprepared for heroic deeds, but the responsibility is theirs, nevertheless. Even as their lives are torn apart by unseen evils, they must show courage not only in the face of the enemy, but also their own fears. These poor souls will teeter on the brink of insanity, tortured by the horrors of the Ancients. A secret war is being waged on the periphery of Humanity's perceptions - a war wreathed in shadows and deception. Now, the centuries-long game of the Ancients is reaching its final stages. The Darkness comes... Courtesy of eternaldarkness.com. ***************************************************************************** ============= 6.

A short sword with a wooden grip - light and durable. Blowgun - Used by Ellia. Scramasax - Used by Anthony.

Trapper - A small scorpion-like creature that cannot see. Use X to sneak by them or they will explode, sending you to the Trappers World where you can replenish sanity, magick and health or meet more enemies. More enemies soon... ----------- 8.6. Sanity ----------- Your characters sanity is measured by the green Sanity meter that appears on the upper-left corner of the screen. When you encounter an enemy, your character will flash green and the meter will drop. As your sanity drops, strange things will begin to occur. The lower the level of the meter, the stranger the events will be. To restore part of your sanity, you can deliver a Finishing Blow to a fallen enemy by pressing the B-button while next to the enemy. ----------- 8.7. Magick ----------- Magick is measured by the blue Magick meter that appears in the middle of the left side of the screen. In order to use magick, each character must find the Tome of Eternal Darkness. Each spell is composed of four components: a Circle of Power, three Runes, three Codices and a Spell Scroll. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 8.7.1. Circles of Power ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Circles of Power form the foundation upon which magick is built. Each Circle of Power has a certain number of points onto which you can place Runes. The more points in the circle, the greater the power of the spell you are creating. 3-Point - Spell is composed of 3 Runes 5-Point - Spell is composed of 5 Runes 7-Point - Spell is composed of 7 Runes The more points a spell has, the more powerful it is and the longer it takes to cast. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ 8.7.2. Runes ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Runes are the building blocks of magick. They describe the effect, target and alignment of each spell. Chattur'gha - Red alignment Rune Ulyaoth - Blue alignment Rune Xel'lotath - Green alignment Rune Mantorok - Purple alignment Rune Bankorok - Protect Tier - Summon Narokath - Absorb Nethlek - Dispel Antorbok - Project Magormor - Item Redgormor - Area Aretak - Creature Santak - Self Pargon - Power ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 8.7.3. Codices ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When you first find a Rune, it is indecipherable. While you can still use that Rune to create a spell, you won't know what effect that Rune will have until you find a Codex to decipher the Rune's effect. Once you've found a Codex, though, that Rune (and its description) is permanently inscribed into your Runes list. Finding a Codex automatically deciphers the meaning of a Rune in your Runes list. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 8.7.4. Spell Scrolls ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Spell Scrolls describe a magickal effect and the names of Runes necessary to create that effect. The Spell Scroll is added immediately to the Spell List in your Tome. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 8.7.5. Spells ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ----------------------- Spell #1 - Enchant Item Description - "That which is broken, shall be fixed. That which is dull, will be sharp. Thus is the nature of the Enchant Item magick."

Walkthrough ============== ---------------------------------- 9.0. Introduction by Edward Roivas ---------------------------------- "Flesh. Bone. Bound together with the oddest magickal incantation. This wretched book is where it all began so long ago. Before time, before humanity. I am Doctor Edward Roivas. I am a clinical psychologist. I am also dead. This is not my story, not even the story of the Roivas family. It is the story of humanity. Like it or not, believe it or not as you will. your perceptions will not change reality, but simply color it. Humanity has been on the edge of extinction for two millennia. Ignorant of so much, and dependent on so few. The Guardians grow restless. Their time once again near. Whether by fate or misfortune, my family has crossed their path, and they didn't take kindly to it. Their attention turns to my granddaughter, for she is the last of my line, and the last hope for humanity." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 9.0.1. Prelude - A Death in the Family Alex Roivas - A.D. 2000 - Rhode Island, USA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You will take control of Alex Roivas is a room filled with zombies. Continue to shoot at the zombies until you run out of ammunition. After a short period of time, Alex will run to the door and hear: "May the rats eat your eyes! The Darkness comes." A blue spirit of Edward will appear in the room and speak to Alex briefly. A phone begins to ring and the scene switches to Alex sleeping in her bed with the phone ringing. A green alarm clock shows the time (3:33), it will be useful later on. Alex will wake up to the ringing phone and have a conversation with Inspector Legrasse and he tells her that there has been an accident with her grandfather. The next scene begins at the Roivas Family Estate in Rhode Island. Alex meets the detective inside the mansion and he goes on to show Alex her grandfather's mutilated body. She identifies the body by the presence of the family ring. Alex is upset at the sight and the detective seems puzzled by the murder. Alex vows to stay in Rhode Island until she finds out what happened. Two week later, you take control of Alex on the first floor of the mansion. Examine the clock between the staircases to find the Dresser Key. You will not need this right now. Go to the right and through the first door to enter the Roivas family library. Go down and follow the main path until you reach a room containing a fireplace and a softly ticking grandfather clock. Remember the time when Alex woke up from her nightmare? Examine the clock and adjust the clock hands by pressing right until the time reads 3:33. When it is properly set, a chime will sound and a secret passage will open on the wal to Alex's left. Follow the passage and go through the door. Alex will gasp at having found the secret chamber laden with the many artifacts. Go past the desk and examine the Gladius hanging on the wall. After taking the Gladius, examine and read the book on the desk. As Alex begins reading the book, she will be struck with images of various monsters and locations. She will then begin reading again: "I had no knowledge of what was to come, nor did I care. How the knowledge changed me, it will also change you. As you read this, you will come to learn fear as I have. You, too, will come to understand or you will perish." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 9.0.2. Chapter 1, Act 1 - The Chosen One Pious Augustus - 26 B.C. - Persia ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "To think that once I could not see beyond the veil of our reality, to see those who dwell behind. My life now has purpose, for I have learned the frailty of flesh and bone. I was once a fool..." Pious is seen having a conversation with his guards in a foreign language. Their conversation seamlessly passes into English and the guard is congratulating Pious on their victory. When the first guard leaves, the second guard begins discussing the existence of the artifact. Pious says he does not doubt his emperor's beliefs or his orders. The second guard then leaves and Pious hears ghostly voices calling his name. Pious follows the voices and discovers an arrangement of five pillars. When he steps inside, yellow energy wraps around the pillars and transports Pious to ancient ruins where you take control. Head down the ladder in the center of the room. You will emerge in a long, narrow corridor littered with dead bodies. As you walk forward, Pious will notice a small gray block at the end of the corridor. After noticing the block, the zombie behind it will rise up. Behind the second to last set of torches, two more zombies will walk out. Dispose of them and pick up the Red Granite Block and go through the door. (Note: If you get injured will fighting, the pause menu will pop up with a brief description of your health meter.) As you enter the next room, two zombies will approach you. Take care of them, pick up the Green Granite Block and go through the door at the top. (Note: To easily take care of zombies, lop off their heads so they don't know where you are. Then repeatedly press A without targeting to perform a combo attack that will send them to the ground. Finish him.) In the next room, a zombie will immediately come from the right side. Three more will approach once you begin to attack the first one. Once the zombies are dead, continue through the room to find the Blue Granite Stone. Past it, there will be another zombie waiting for you. Finish him and continue down the ladder. On the next level, continue down the small hallway and defeat the zombie around the left corner. To the left, there will be a grated door. Turn around and go through the open door. Go down the small blue hall way and Pious will notice the large colored symbols on the walls. Defeat the four zombies and pick up the Purple Granite Stone. Walk up to each symbol and there will be a small hole beneath. Place the stones under their correct color by pausing and selecting Use for the appropriate color. Once all the stones are in the correct place, the grate will unblock the door. Go back into the hallway and go through the door on the other side. When you approach the statue, it will tell you how to target enemies. Knock of (in this order) the head, left arm, right arm and torso and the door will open. Pious will emerge in a room and a short scene will focus on the glowing button. Kill the three zombies and approach the button. Press the button and three columns will rise from the ground around a glowing circle. Step into the glowing circle. This is the room where you choose the path you will take. Go down the hallway to find three columns, each with a different colored artifact on top of them. To choose an artifcat, examine the column and press A.

Act 2 - The Eternal Darkness Alex Roivas - A.D. 2000 - Rhode Island, USA *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~* When attempting to claim the artifact, a bolt of blue energy will hit Pious as he falls to the ground, with the energy seeping through his eyes. Moments later, Pious will emerge in the form of a skeleton. Edward Roivas will continue - "Aeons have passed since then, and I have learned much. All at once I understood. The forces of the multiverse all made sense under the transcending power of Ulyaoth. No mountain too high, no city too far." An evil voice then taunts - "Face me and you shall surely perish." Alex will acquire the Tome of Eternal Darkness. Turn around and pick up the Chapter Page on the wall behind the desk. Read it to begin the next chapter. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 9.2.2. Chapter 2 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~* 9.2.2.1. Act 1 - The Binding of the Corpse God Ellia - A.D. 1150 - Angkor Thom Region, Cambodia *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~* "I cannot say what was the true beginning, nor am I sure of its end. So, perhaps here is the best place to start: I am reminded of ideas I first encountered in Sir James George Frazer's book 'The Golden Bough: A Study in Magic and Religion.' We are overwhelmed by our very human need to weave a web of meaning where there may be none. Since time immemorial, ancient peoples have dressed up their lack of knowledge as gods and demons. I have discovered that sometimes, the fates of gods and mortals intertwine - and legends are born..." Ellia begins by reading the Tome in a temple. The scene switches to Pious who is angered by Mantorok for withholding the Ancients. Pious casts a spell that strikes Mantorok who then shrinks in size. Ellia is then seen, unamused by the mythical fables she reads, wishing that something of importance could happen to her. The entrance to the temple then closes behind her and you take control. Directly across from where you start, there will be statue that has a necklace around its neck. Examine it and pick up the Strange Necklace. After taking the necklace one of the paths will become blocked. The necklace can be used ten times to refill a portion of Ellia's health. Go diagonally left from the statue to find the only open path. As you enter, there will be a cutscene that shows off the room. There is nothing to do in this room right now. In the next room, Ellia will step onto a panel that sets of a pair of swinging blades. You can attempt to dodge the blades or go back into the previous room to make the blades stop swinging. As you navigate the hallway, stepping on the panels that differ from the majority of the floor will set off various traps including swinging blades, blowdarts and smashing walls. When you enter the next room, the door will close behind you and a Chattur'gha zombie will rise up from the ground. An explanation of sanity will then appear. The Chattur'gha zombies attack very quickly and can regrow limbs after a period of time. Try to remove the zombies head then arms. Once you drop the zombie, the first door will open again. You may want to refill some health with the Strange Necklace. Stay in the room and pick up the Bronze Necklace on the pedestal. Then examine the candles by the wall. Extinguish all candles but the middle one (notice the picture behind the candles) and two doors will lower a small amount. You will now need to backtrack. Carefully go back through the hallway with the traps. When you enter the red- lit room again, three of the zombies will rise from the ground (the fourth one does not). Kill them quickly to save your sanity. Once they are dead return to the large room you began in. Go to the statue and place the Bronze Necklace around the neck of the statue. The door that closed when you removed the Strange Necklace will now open. Go diagonally right from the statue to go through the newly opened door. You then want to go through the next door to enter another room with candles. Take a left and you will find yourself in another trap-filled hallway. Once you reach the end, go into the next room and the door will once again close behind you. A Xel'lotath zombie will rise from the ground. It will take more sanity from you, but is very easy to kill. Taking off its head is enough to bring it to the ground. Once it is dead, the door that closed behind you will open again. Go to the candle arrangement on the wall and extinguish all of the candles, the door on the right that was partially lowered will open completely. Go through that door and you will be in a third trapped hallway. Continue carefully to the middle of the hallway where it branches to either side. Take a left and you will find a blowgun on a pedestal. When Ellia picks up the blowgun, she will fall through a trap door into a secret passage in the temple. When she stands up, she will see two Ulyaoth zombies. Fire darts at the first one until it begins to make a pulsating sound. Get away from the zombie and it will blow up in a few seconds, sending a ring of energy out from it. Once the first one is dead, turn right to see the zombie attacking a man in the corner. Shoot darts at it and it will approach you. Once it explodes, go back to the area where you landed to pick up your broken short sword. Take it to the man in the corner and he will repair it for you. You now want to go to the left through another hallway laden with traps. One trap is unavoidable and will set off smashing walls. Run through when they pull back. When you reach the end, go through the door. The next room will begin with a cutscene that shows a slot in the middle of the room. Dispose of the two zombies and go through the door to the diagonal right of where you entered. The next room is the final (and toughest) trapped hallway. You will come to two traps that are arranged to be impassible without setting them off. The small one on the right sets off two swinging blades that are right behind you. The long one on the left sets of blowdarts that fly from the walls. Go to the left and run through the darts until you reach a gateway. Go through the gateway and set off the single swinging blade. Avoid the next few traps and carefully step onto the one in the next gateway. The smashing walls will obstruct the view of the four swinging blades. Time your run through, stopping between blades if necessary. Continue through the rest of the hallway (the trap at the third gateway won't affect you). In the next room, you will see a Xel'lotath and Ulyaoth zombie fighting with each other. The Ulyaoth zombie will then empower the other two zombies in the room. If you stay out of their view, they will kill each other and you can finish off the Xel'lotath zombie. Go through the door to the diagonal right of where you entered. Follow the empty hallways until you reach room with Mantorok. *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~* 9.2.2.2. Act 2 - Chaos Entombed Ellia - A.D. 1150 - Angkor Thom Region, Cambodia *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~* Mantorok will eat the two guards and Pious will enter, obviously angry at Mantorok. He will warn Ellia to leave, but a purple energy will infuse her. A ghostly figure appears when Ellia wakes up and gives her one of Mantorok's hearts. The heart enters Ellia and you take control once again. Walk towards the statue in front of Mantorok and grab the Metal Staff. You will now need to backtrack once again. Head out the way you came and go through the two empty hallways. Kill the three Ulyaoth zombies and go through the door to the diagonal left. In the trapped hallway, there will be zombies, but you can set off traps in order to kill them before they reach you. Carefully continue through, using the Strange Necklace when necessary. After leaving the hallway, kill the four Ulyaoth zombies. Then go to center of the room and place the Metal Staff in the slot you saw earlier. This will open the door that is behind Mantorok. Go through the door opposite the slot, navigating the hallway as you did the two previous times. In the next room go through the door to the diagnoal right and then through the two empty hallways. You can go behind Mantorok with the path to the right or the left. *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~* 9.2.2.3. Act 3 - Death of a Dancing Girl Alex Roivas - A.D. 2000 - Rhode Island, USA *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~* Enter the newly opened door and approach the statue. When you do, Pious and his guards appear. He demands the essence of Mantorok from Ellia. When she does not give it to him, he infuses her with a blue energy and she falls to the ground, lifeless. When you take control of Alex again, the candles to the right of the room will all light up. Leave only the one on the left burning and a hidden panel opens, revealing a message tube. Check the Message Tube and you will find the next Chapter Page. *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~* 9.2.2.4. Act 4 - The Absent Horror Alex Roivas - A.D. 2000 - Rhode Island, USA *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~* The scene then switches to Pious, talking with what appears to be his leader. They discuss the diminishing power of Mantorok and their increasing power over the universe. The leader tells Pious that Charlemagne the Frank is the next obstacle in their way. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 9.2.3. Chapter 3 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~* 9.2.3.1. Act 1 - Suspicions of Conspiracy Anthony - A.D. 814 - Amiens, France *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~* "From my research, it is apparent that the endeavors of mankind are mere puppetry at the hands of the Ancients. Whenever a king vows reform, the Ancients move quickly to stifle it. Under the auspices of Emperor Charlemagne the Frank, the new Holy Roman Empire was at the height of its power." A man in black gives Anthony a scroll, telling him to deliver it to Charlemagne at once and no one else is to see it. When the man leaves, Anthony secretly opens the scroll and is hit with a blast of magick. Anthony realizes it was intended for Charlemagne and sets off to warn him. You then take control of Anthony in the cathedral. Walk between the rows of pews and talk to monks. Some seem subdued and one tells Anthony that the you he needs the Bishop's Key to see Charlemagne in the chamber on the left. At the end of the walkway, there will be a casket, examine it to find a dead monk. A nearby monk will tell Anthony that it is the work of evil and give him a Scramasax to defend himself. Head towards the door and turn right to ascend the stairs. When you reach the top of the stairs, Anthony will be transported to the Hall of Eternal Darkness. Along the pathway, there will be statues of characters that have been engulfed by the Eternal Darkness. At the end of the hall, a hand will unravel, allowing Anthony to pick up the Tome of Eternal Darkness. Once a character finds the Tome, they can use magick. After picking up the Tome, scenes from previous chapters will briefly flash and Anthony will be at the top of the stairs. Go upstairs and Anthony will feel the effect of the magick from the scroll. Go the lone bookcase and pick up the Blue Urn from the shelf. When you 'Use' it your inventory, it will break and you will find the Chattur'gha (Red) alignment Rune. The game will then explain the basics of magick. Head to the other end of the room and pick up the 3-Point Circle of Power from the desk. The game will then explain Circles of Power. Behind the desk, there will be three bookcases. On the middle one, Anthony will find a book that is "oddly pristine on the dusty shelf." Move the book and the bookcase on the left will move, revealing a secret passage. Climb down the ladder. Head through the door and Anthony will see a zombie with a Rune inside. Two smaller zombies will come from further down the hall. If you knock off their heads, they will still be able to see you. The smaller ones can be eliminated with a quick combo, while the bigger one takes a few more hits. Once the big one is dead, you will receive your first Rune (Antorbok). Then go through the door at the end of the hall. In the next room, Anthony will see a monk fending off zombies. The torch will burn a zombie and it will fall down, burning the rug in front of the door down. Once you have control again, dispose of the zombies (these can't see once their heads are gone). Then pick up the torch the monk dropped and talk to him. He will tell you that he dropped an Urn when he was confronted by a 'demonic' Bishop. For your safety, he gives you a Two-Edged Sword that is much stronger than the Scramasax. Equip the torch and walk around the ground in front of the next door. Pick up two pieces of the broken Green Urn and the game will tell you how to mix items. Then find the third and you will have a complete broken Green Urn. Equip the new sword and head through the door. In the next room, a short cutscene will show another zombie with a Rune inside its body. When you head down the first flight of stairs, you will find the first Codex (Magormor). The game will then explain Codices. As you continue down the stairs, the zombie will confront you. It is easier to defeat than the first Rune Zombie. Once it is defeated, you will have the Rune that is translated by the Codex (Magormor). Go through the door. As Anthony enters the next room, he will again feel the effects of the magick. An Ulyaoth zombie will be fighting with another zombie. Take off both of their heads as well as the one of the zombie that comes from the right. Pick up the Codex on the pedestal that translates the Chattur'gha alignment Rune. Then pick up the filled Red Urn. Next to the urn is a well of putrid water. You will need to return to this later. Equip your torch and set the rug on fire by pressing A. Equip the Two- Edged Sword again and head through the door. In the L-shaped hallway, a zombie comes from around the corner. Kill it and head through the next door. When Anthony enters this room, a monk will be exiting through the door on the opposite side. To the left, there will be a Codex for Rune acquired from the first zombie. On the table lies the Spell Scroll, which completes your first spell, Enchant Item. The game will tell you that you discovered and then explain 'Cast', 'Assign' and 'Check' under the Spell List. It will then show how to assign spells to the Quick Spell buttons and what the magick meter is for. Use the new spell to fix the two broken urns. On the floor in front of the table is a small panel. If you step on it, the door behind the desk will open until you step off. Head back through the door you came in and then the L-shaped hallway. Go to the well of putrid water in the opposite corner and fill the Blue and Green Urns with the water (the Red Urn is already filled). Go back through the door and L-shaped hallway and back to the room with the table. Place each of the urns on the panel in the floor. When they are all placed, the door will stay open. Head through the newly opened passage and through another L-shaped hallway. Enchant the Two-Edged Sword and open the door and the end of the hall. Once inside, there will be a monk at the other end who wants the Tome of Eternal Darkness. When he approaches, hack away with a quick combo. The Ulyaoth zombie on the left will rise. Quickly chop off its head and continue slashing the monk. It is best to get to the other side of the monk, away from the door. The second Ulyaoth zombie will rise, so chop off its head also. Take out the zombies quickly and then chop off the monk's arms. When he falls, take the Bishop's Key from him. Leave this room and Anthony will feel more of the magick's effects. As you go through the hallway, there will be two zombies. Kill them and go through the door. In the room with the table, there will one zombie on each side of the table. Dispose of them as usual and continue through the door. In the first L-shaped hallway, the camera will cut to the view of a Trapper that is crawling towards Anthony. It will explode, sending him to the Trapper Dimension. When you step in the colored circle, in the will transport you to the other portal of that color. Each color allows you to refill either health (red), sanity (green) or magick (blue). The purple portal will allow you to exit the Dimension by stepping on the portal at the top of the stairs. Use whichever portal to fill up your most needed attribute (most likely health or sanity). Once you return from the Trapper Dimension, you will be back in the L-shaped hallway. Continue through the door into the room with the putrid water well. There will be four Trappers when enter this room. The game tells you they have no eyes, but can sense around them. Hold X to sneak around until you reach the door. There will be a zombie within in swords length as soon as you enter this room. Two more zombies will amble down the steps. Kill all three zombies and take the stairs to the door at the top. Simply pass through the room with the monk that gave you the Two-Edged Sword. Anthony will again feel the effects of the magick upon entering the next room. Walk down the long empty hallway until you reach the ladder. Before you ascend, be sure to enchant your weapon. When you reach the room with the bookcases, a large Ulyaoth creature will appear as well as a magickal wall blocking the stairs down. This creature will drain your magick as well as your health. It can be easily defeated by removing one of its arms and giving it a few good blows from an enchanted (Two-Edged Sword). Descend the steps into the room you began in. Two small and one large zombie will greet you at the bottom of the stairwell. Kill them and go through the pews to the door on the left. Open the door with the Bishop's Key to enter the Bishop's visiting chamber. *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~* 9.2.3.2. Act 2 - Conspiracy Revealed Alex Roivas - A.D. 2000 - Rhode Island, USA *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~* Once inside, Anthony will see Charlemagne dead on the floor. The magick from the scroll will finally knock him to the ground in death as the 'demonic' Bishop reveals that he is truly an Ulyaoth monster. As Alex, exit the secret chamber and go through the library to reach the main hallway. Go up the stairs to the second floor and use the Second Floor Key in the door. It will break, but you can repair it with the Enchant Item spell. When you use it the second time, the door will open. Go forward and follow the hall to the left. Enter the door on the right at the corner. Inside the room, there will be a painting above a desk. Behind the painting is the next chapter. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 9.2.4.
