==============================================================================
Profiles for Alexandra Roivas, Pious Augustus, Ellia, Karim, Dr. Maximillian
Roivas, and Dr. Edward Roivas were from the Instruction Booklet.
-Alexandra Roivas
A.D. 2000 - Rhode Island, USA
Alexandra, a student at a Washington university is a headstrong and independent
woman. Imaginative and quite intelligent. Alexandra is completing her graduate
degree in abstract mathematics and number theory. She is stubborn, and her
obstinate attitude often gets her into trouble. She has returned to Rhode
Island to tend her deceased grandfather's estate and to find some answers
about his gruesome death.
-Pious Augustus
26 B.C. - Persia
Born into a family of wealthy patricians, Pious Augustus joined the army of the
Roman Empire at an early age. Pious was a centurion and commander during the
empire's campaigns in Persia. He is now in his late twenties - many of his
peers have retired to lives in Roman politics, but he remains a loyal soldier
of the empire. Although Pious has grown weary of constant fighting, he
continues, driven by the belief that life has a greater purpose in store for
him.
-Ellia
A.D. 1150 - Angkor Thom Region, Cambodia
Ellia was born into servitude and raised as a dancer in the court of
Suryavarman II, the king who reunited the Khmer empire after years of unrest.
After finding and reading a strange book, she yearns for adventure. Her
curiosity leads her into a temple, where she uncovers secrets she was never
meant to find.
-Anthony
A.D. 814 - Amiens, France
Anthony is a young man. He is ordered not to read the message in the scroll,
but instead he did, and a mysterious magical power comes out and hits Anthony,
he got choked and he must warn his leader, Charlemagne. Will he be able to
warn him in time?
-Karim
A.D. 565 - Persia
Karim is a brash young man of noble heritage trtained in the arts of the sword.
He spends his time seeking adventure and the hand of many a lady. His heart

for her love, she asks him to locate a lost relic.
-Dr. Maximillian Roivas
A.D. 1760 - Rhode Island, USA
Maximillian, a learned medical doctor, lectures at many universities within
the United States. Although not a famous scholar, he is certainly respected
by both his students and peers. Maximillian is a somewhat portly man in his
mid-fifties. His wife passed on years ago, after fighting consumption for many
years. His three children, themselves now adults, visit him from time to time.
More often than not, though, he remains alone in the family estate, left to
his own devices. His children fear for his sanity - they believe it is
unhealthy for an old man to be left alone in such a large house. They may be
right...
-Dr. Edwin Lindsey
A.D. 1983 - Angkor Thom Region, Cambodia
Edwin discovered this temple through a radar sateillite, but his adventure
is a lot like one of the Indiana Jones's movies, The Raider of the Last Ark
or was it the Temple of Doom? I always get the name of the movie messed up.
But I liked his adventure alot!
-Paul Luther
A.D. 1485 - Amiens, France

church and he is to uncover the secret that is going on in the cathedral.
But the question is...can he uncover it?

Roberto is an architect, and he was to built a monument for his liege. But,
instead, he got thrown underground in a temple and was ordered to see if it
is safe to built a monument, and he will be free to go if everything's OK.
Is it?
-Peter Jacob
A.D. 1916 - Amiens, France
A reporter during the World War I found himself in the Oublie Cathedral
in France, he read one of the notes and reading it has made him curious about
what is cauing the cathedral from holy to unholy, he is to uncover the whole
cause of this, but will he be able to do it?
-Dr. Edward Roivas
A.D. 1962 - Rhode Island, USA
Edward is in his early thirties, and he has always prided himself on his
rational attitude. Continuing a long family tradition of scholarly pursuits.
Edward Roivas is a practicing psychiatrist living in his family's ancestral
home in Rhode Island. He has spent much time studying the works of Freud and
Jung. Now, confronted by an irrational world, he finds himself privy to dark
secrets his reasoning can barely comprehend.
-Michael Edwards
A.D. 1991 - Middle East
A fireman in a massive fire in the field of oil wells. As the fire explodes,
he is being sent flying and fell into an underground temple. Shocked he was,
as his other people are dead and he sees a monument, full of dead people
covered in cement, a ghost of Roberto gives him the essence, but Michael has
some other objectives that need to be done.
==============================================================================
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Enemies @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
==============================================================================
-Zombie -Easy to kill, take off their head
and they will stand there cluelessly
and swing their arms around. Finish
them off once laying on the ground.
-Mummy Zombie -Limbs regrow as "phantom entities" when
severed, causing deep rooted insanity on
the observers...The wrappings of the
mummy are highly combustible, and catch
fire easily.
-Mantorok Zombie -A living human corpse, it has no
special attributes or weaknesses. It is
very weak - composed of dried sinew and
skin.
-Transparent Zombie -Like the other zombie, but this one is
transparent and it holds a rune inside
its body, to receive the rune, you must
put the zombie's life to an end.
-Horror -its eyes are its weakness. The creature
is highly dependent on sight, rather
than sound. Sometimes Horror are a pain
to fight against, especially two in the
same room. If one electrocute you, you
lose control of your character for a
short while. Hack/Shoot all three of its
heads to defeat it.
-Trapper -A small insect or an arachnid that
takes you to the Trapper Dimension,
to avoid this creature, press X and
sneak pass it.
(In the Trapper Dimension, you can
refill either your sanity, health, or
magic, then exit the dimension.)
-Bonethief -The creature wears the skins of people
to protect itself. So annoying, and so
fast. It can disguise itself in one's
body, kill the disguise to reveal a
Bonethief, kill it before it leap and
attack you.
-Smaller Guardian -A curious lack of internal organs means
no way of inflicting critical damage.
No obvious vulnerability. Sometimes this
guardian can be trapped inside a force
field and you have to cast a Dispel
Magick on it to release the creature.
Use a powerful weapon and enchant it
and then aim at the monster's body or
torso as some of you may call it, couple
swings or shots at it will end its life.
-Larger Guardian -This huge monster can be found in
Peter's chapter, you have to go through
three stages to beat this monster.
==============================================================================
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Walkthrough @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
==============================================================================
Some few important things before you progress into the game:
-Health Meter
This meter represents LIFE ENERGY. Every time a character takes DAMAGE the
lever will get lower. When it reaches zero, the character will die.
-Sanity Meter
KEEP THE LEVEL HIGH! or else you will hear or see things that isn't
really happening and the camera angle will tilt. Your sanity level will
lower when a monster sees you, run around it and start attacking.
-Magick Meter
The easiest way to refill your magick is to run around in circle, you need
magick to cast a spell if you have enough.
:::Turn on your GameCube with the Eternal Darkness mini-disc inserted:::
As the game starts up, a piece from one of Edgar Allan Poe's poems.
" Deep into that
darkness peering,
long I stood there,
wondering...
fearing...
doubting... "
The scripting above is from Poe's "The Raven", although one guy sent me the
whole poem of The Raven, but I feel that it isn't part of the game, but I
did read the poem, intense! Thanks to those guys who gave me the answer to
my question about the script.
After you start a new game, Dr. Edward Roivas speaks:
........................................................
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,
nor 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.
........................................................
--------------------------------Alexandra Roivas-------------------------------
The game starts of in a room where you have to kill the zombies, and it turned
out to be a dream.
(ringing phone)
A police inspector, named Legrasse, called Alexandra and told her that there
is an accident with Alex's grandfather. Alexandra told him that she will be on
the next flight out. Legrasse showed the body and Alexandra was in shock and
Legrasse asked her if it was her grandfather, and Alexandra said it was, and he
is wearing the family ring. Legrasse wanted Alexandra to find clues and the
cause of her grandfather's death.
"Shocked by her grandfather's mysterious death and frustrated at the
incompetence of the local police, Alex vows to uncover the truth. She decides
to search the mansion - the place where Edward conducted his research. If
there was a tie to his past, and possibly a tie to his murderer, it would be
here..."
You are now in control. The only item you have right now is the Second Floor
Key, and it looks very old and worn. Do not use this key on the double door at
the top of the steps, or it will break. Go in the area between the two stairs
and you will see a clock, ticking. Examine the clock and you get the Dresser
Key.
From the middle of the room, go right, through the door and you will be in a
room full of books. We'll call this room the Library. If you checked one of
the shelves on the west, inside Alex sees a shaky handwriting that says "3:33".
Go to the northeastern part of the room and you will see a grandfather clock,
examine it. You are allowed to adjust the hands, remember the 3:33?, tilt the
control stick to the right and have the small hand AT 3, a little before 4,
and the long hand a little after 6 until a door to a passageway opens up.
Go in the secret passageway and into the room. A cut-scene showed that Alex
is shocked from the look of this room. We'll call this room the Secret Room,
since you opened up the secret passageway. Is that ok? Take the Gladius from
the west wall and equip it. Open the book on the desk, something hits Alex
and the cut-scene follows:
*CHAPTER ONE*
-------------------------------Pious Augustus---------------------------------
The Chosen One
Ancient Persia, 26 B.C.
You start out in an ancient chamber, with the east wall decorated with ancient
cultures and a symbol with gold and gems on the floor. Go down the ladder and
after a few steps you will see an item and a zombie come to life! Kill this
zombie, 2 more will join. Grab the GRANITE BLOCK #1. Go through the door in the
southwest. Two more zombies will come after you, kill them and grab the GRANITE
BLOCK #2 and go through the door in the southwest. There are many zombies in
this room, run around (don't run too much) and decapitate one's head off, one
at a time or you'll be in for a little trouble. Once you clear up this room,
take the GRANITE BLOCK #3 and go through the south door.
Kill the lone zombie in this hallway and turn south. In the middle of the room
is GRANITE BLOCK #4 and the final one, but, there are plenty of zombies around,
protecting the stone, fend off one at a time and try to avoid trouble. Take the
GRANITE BLOCK #4 in the middle of this room. Go to the north wall with the and
slide each of the the colored block in their own colored slot. After you put
all of the blocks in, a barred door will be unbarred.
Go into the room that was barred and a lone statue stands in the middle of the
room. Go up to the statue to start a training session, if you success, go
into the next room ahead.
A glowing symbol on the wall caught your attention, but zombies comes after
you, kill them and go to the symbol, push the button and step into the glowing
in the middle of the room and you will be transported to another room.
In this room, you will see three pedestral, each have their own color and their
own artifact. I have listed the difference between all three:
Blue - Build your magickal power, and enemies explodes when they are being
Ulyaoth bothered.
Red - Tougher enemies, if a body part of theirs fell off, it can
Chattur'gha regenerate one back.
Green - Your sanity meter will play the role, danger lurks around the
Xel'lotath corner.
-------------------------------Alexandra Roivas-------------------------------
After you finish the chapter, Alex received the TOME OF ETERNAL DARKNESS.
There is a page inside a glass frame behind you, take it and use it, you will
be onto the next chapter.
*CHAPTER TWO*
------------------------------------Ellia-------------------------------------
The Binding of the Corpse God
Angkor Thom Region, Cambodia 1150 A.D.
Go to the statue in the west wall and grab the necklace from it. The north
passageway will be blocked. Instead go to the south into the next chamber. In
this room, deads are all over the floor, go into the hallway in the east. In
this hallway is full of traps! AVOID STEPPING ON THE LIGHTER PART OF THE FLOOR
or you will receive damage! If you successfully made it through, go into the
next chamber ahead.
The door will close behind you and your sanity meter will appear! Chop this
mummy's head off and once you finish him off, your sanity meter will rise.
Go to the altar with the lit candles, press X to blow the RIGHT candle, and
part of the door will open, then take the Bronze Necklace. Go back through
the hallway full of traps, and back to the first room. Place the Bronze
Necklace on the statue and the blocked door to the north will be unblocked.
Go north into the room, then west in another hallway full of traps, avoid
stepping on the LIGHTER PART of the floor, or you will activate the trap. Go
into the room and the door will close behind you, leaving you to face off
against a red zombie, chop his head off with your Short Sword and keep hacking
him down, finish him off. Go up to the candles and extinguish the left and
right candles, by pressing Y and X. Go south, through another set of traps in
the hallway, run through and once you get in the middle part, turn east and
you will find a Blowgun here, take it, then you fall through the trap.
You have fallen into a secret passage in the temple, but your sword has been
shattered to pieces. There are two zombies in this reoom and a guard, DON'T
KILL THE GUARD, because if you do, you won't have your Short Sword repaired.
Go through the hallway, avoid stepping on the LIGHTER part of the floor and
go into the next room, kill the two zombies in here and go east, this is a
long hallway full of traps, just RUN through smoothly, avoid stepping on the
LIGHTER PART of the floor. In the next room, there are different types of
zombies and they attack each other, let them fight and finish off whoever is
down, this way, you don't have to worry about wasting ammos for your blowgun.
------EMAIL FROM EDUARDO
Actually, the broken sword is not useless as you said on your faq.
Right after you fall to the ground and your short sword gets broken,
pick it up and quickly slay the two zombies before they kill the guy
on one corner of the room. Fight the temptation to kill him yourself
and instead talk to him. He will fix the sword for you.
Go north into the next room and watch the cut-scene about the Mantorok and
a mysterious man want you to hold his heart and guard it well. After the
cut-scene, go up to the statue in front of Mantorok and take the Metal Staff.
Go back to the room where the different zombies attack each other and the room
before the long hallway of traps. Place the Metal Staff in the slot and it
opens the door behind Mantorok, go all the way back into that room and go
around Mantorok and into the next room. Go through the door in this room to
end the chapter.
-------------------------------Alexandra Roivas-------------------------------
As soon as you end the chapter, the candles lit up in the north wall. Go over
to it and inspect the table. There is a picture frame behind it showing the sun
rising on the left side and darkness on the right, press A and X to
entinguish the middle and right candles. A secret opens below it and grab the
Message Tube and open it. You found a chapter page titled "Suspicions of
Conspiracy". Watch the cut-scene, then use the chapter page.
*CHAPTER THREE*
-----------------------------------Anthony------------------------------------
Suspicions of Conspiracy
Amiens, France 814 A.D.
You start off in a cathedral, go to the eastern part of this room and open
the casket, inside is a dead body. One of the monks will give you the Scramasax
and tell you to find the Bishop and warn him. Go up the stairs in the northwest
corner. Examine the statues, does those names look familiar? Go to the end
of this walkway, the floor turns into many screaming faces and the hand opens
up, revealing the Tome of Eternal Darkness on its palm, grab it and watch the
cut-scene. You will be back in the first floor again, go back upstairs.
Go to the west wall and grab the Blue Urn from the bookcase and use it, you
will find a Magickal Rune. Go to the east and grab the Circle of Power from
the middle desk. Go behind the desk and examine the bookcase in the middle
and move the book, this opens up a secret passage to the basement.
Once in the basement, a transparent zombie with a rune inside its body comes
after you, attack this beast and finish him off while grabbing the rune. Two
more zombies comes to life at the end of this hallway. Go into the next room
and take a good look on Anthony's face, is he turning into a zombie? A monk
tries to torch the zombies away, but he couldn't do it, run over and grab the
torch and burn the remaining zombies and save the monk told you about the
bishop and then he gave you the Two-Edged Sword. Go north and pick up the
Broken Green Urn, there are 2 more around the area. Mix them together and go
through the door in the north.
A zombie wonders around at the bottom of the stairs, kill this zombie with one
touch of your torch and grab the rune from his see-through body. Go back up
and grab the Codex (Magormor) then through the door at the bottom of the
stairs. The mysterious power has turned Anthony into worse. 3 Zombies in this
room but 2 will squared off at each other, bun them all and pick up the Red
Urn and another Codex (Ulyaoth) and torch the tapestry on the west wall and
go through the door. Torch the lone zombie in this hallway and go through
another door.
A limping monk went into a secret passage, who is he? why is he up this far
in the basement? Pick up the codex on the bookcase in the east and grab the
scroll from the table, this is a spell scroll titled "Enchant Item". Assign
the Enchant Item spell to one of the buttons and use it on the Green Urn and
the Blue Urn as well. Go back to the room where you burn the tapestry and fill
the Blue and Green Urn with water. Go back to the room where the limping monk
was.
On the floor is an iron plate with three circles, use all 3 urns on them and
the secret passage will open up again, allowing you to go through. Run down
the hallway through another door. In this room, you will meet up with the
Bishop, but he doesn't look good. Use your Two-Edged Sword and chop his head
off and the two other zombies as well. The Bishop dropped something! Pick it
up and you receive the Bishop's Key, run back to the church, but one of the
hallways brings out a little monster, called Trapper. Sneak past them using
the X button. Go all the way back to the ladder into the cathedral. But, before
doing so, use the Enchant Spell on the Two-Edged Sword, because you will fight
a big monster.
To immediately put this beast to history, go around him to avoid the bolt he
shoots at you. Hacks his head a couple time to end his life and the sealed door
will go away. Go down the step and go to the north wall and use the Bishop's
Key on the door. It is too late to warn or save Charlemagne, however a monk
talk strangely and a creature jumps out of its body. This ends the chapter for
Anthony.
-------------------------------Alexandra Roivas-------------------------------
Do you still have that Second Floor key? Good, now, go back to the main
room and up the stairs, use the key on the double door. The key broke into
half, and I'm sure you know what to do. Use the Enchant Spell on it to fix
the key back together. You have entered the second floor hallway, go through
the door in the east, ignore the moving head. There isn't much to do in the
room for now, grab the .38 Revolver ammo on the floor next to the bed. Go in
the bathroom in the northwest corner of the room and pick up the page and
it is from the Journal of Maximillian Roivas. Leave the bathroom then the
bedroom into the hallway. Run to the other side of the hallway and go through
the door on your right into another bedroom, we'll call this Bedroom #2. Take
the ammunition from the dresser and turn around and take a look at the picture
on the wall, there is a chapter page stashed behind the picture frame. Grab
it and go onto the next chapter!
*CHAPTER FOUR*
------------------------------------Karim-------------------------------------
The Gift of Forever
Persia, 565 A.D.
Go down the ladder in the west side of this room. You will be in the room
with the walkway to the screaming faces and a large hand, take the Tome of
Eternal Darkness from the hand. You will be back in the same room, but many
zombies comes to life, kill them all. Climb back down the ladder again. Grab
the white statuette at the corner of this hallway and continue east. A
transparent zombie holds a rune, put him out of the mystery and grab the rune
from him, then climb up the ladder.
You appear in a room with three large circular designs on the floor with a
shrine in the middle. You hear a sound when you step on one of the circular
designs, its telling you that you must weigh something on it, would the statue
be a help? sure, place the statue on the circuar design and go to the green
barrier with the rune symbol on it, you automatically grab the rune and then
go down the ladder.
Run down the narrow hallway and fight off three zombies. Take the codex with
Xel'lolath scribbled on it. Grab the statue and go back up the ladder. Place
the statue on one of the last two circular platforms and stand on the last one,
be careful now! Four Trappers has been hiding in the elevator and are now
skittling around in the room. Use your Chakram wisely and kill them. Stand in
the elevator and you will go down.
Dead bodies are are over this hallway, one of the bodies has a Tulwar sword
stabbed through the back, grab the sword and you'll be able to use the Dual
Tulwar now! The dead body has comes to life, destroy him and a strange little
monster has come out of its body, put this monster's life to an end and then
go through the door.
Destroy the enemies in here and grab the "Recover" Spell Scroll from the floor
in the northwest area. Go through the door in the east. Kill all of the zombies
in here and go through the door on the left and prepare for a battle. Its that
beast again, but its transparent and you can see the rune. After you defeat it,
grab the rune from the ledge in the south, exit out of this room and go to
the yellow barrier in the hallway, it will vanish. Climb down the ladder and
a cut-scene will occur. After the cut-scene go right and go in the room. Hey,
isn't this like that Excalibur sword where you have to pull it out of the
stone? Pull the Ram Dao out of the pedestral and own it! But...you just have
activated a long and deadly battle, more than 10 zombies, plus 2 large zombies
and 2 little critters, annoying battle with the Ram Dao as it takes a while to
swing your sword again, but it can kill a small zombie quickly. One of the large
zombies holds a rune. Kill all of the enemies in this room and the locked door
will open up. Go back in the hallway and grab the Narokath rune, and you
discovered a new spell! Recover!
Go back up to the room where you got the Recover spell from and enchant the
Ram Dao to green, not blue, and this will unlock the bar that blocks the door.
Go through the door and you will end up in a long hallway. Fight off a couple
of zombies and go up the first ladder in this hallway. In this room, kill of
the Trappers or if you need to replenish your meters, just walk up to them.
Pick up the Ruby Effigy on the platform next to the brazier. It is important
to pick up this item. Go back into the hallway and at the end will be a pile
of debris, climb over them and at the end of the hallway will be another one
of that huge beast, kill him with your Ram Dao. Go down the ladder.
The gate blocks you from proceding ahead, inspect the sculpture and use the
Tome of Eternal Darkness in the shrine with the bones. This raise the gate,
grab the book and continue east in this hallway. You will enter another class
of zombies and big zombies and leaving the huge beast last. Kill them all and
an item appears on the pedestral, grab it and this ends the chapter. Watch the
cut-scene.
------------------------------Alexandra Roivas--------------------------------
You appear back in the secret room, go back out to the main hall and go
through either one of the two doors in the west. Inspect the door in the south
and you'll see a green insignia and a slot. Enchant your Gladius to the green
alignment and slide it in the slot. This removes the plaque. Open the door
and except the shelves, you'll see a Spice Jar, take it. Open the jar and you
found a Chapter Page, and then use it.
*CHAPTER FIVE*
-----------------------------Maximillian Roivas-------------------------------
The Lurking Horror
Rhode Island, 1760 A.D.
You appear in the future Bedroom #2, but this is Max's. Grab the ammo from the
desk and head out through the door in the south. Go to the door in the west,
the door CLOSEST to you. You will be in the servant's room, grab the ammunition
from the desk, and talk to the servant if you want to. Go back out in the
hallway and run to the farthest door to the east, while picking up the ammo
on one of the tables.
You appear in a bedroom, grab the codex that is on top of the fireplace. Talk
to the servent if you want to, then grab the letter from the nightstand. There
is nothing else to do in the room, head back out in the hallway and go through
the door and down the stairs to the kitchen (go through either one of the west
doors). Grab the codex from the countertop, then head to the cabinet and grab
the pistol ammunition, then head into the small room in the south. Grab the
Pump Handle here. Head back out into the Main Hall and go through the door
in the northeast.
You appear in a fancy dining room, inspect the frame above the fireplace, and
you will select a alignment, I don't know if picking one will affect the game?
I picked the red symbol and it opened the path. Go through the secret
passageway and into a secret room. There are two weapons in this room, take
both the Flintlock Pistol and the Sabre. You now have Dual Flintlocks, and
perform the "akimbo" style, which I don't know how that goes, and a blade.
Grab the Reveal spell from atop the boxes in the northwest corner. Then grab
the book. A beast drops from a portal into the Main Hall, a letter dropped
out from the book, Maximillian picks up the letter. Exit out of this room
through the secret passageway.
Be careful! The servant in this dining room is attacking you! Hack him down and
a Bonethief monster jumps out through his body, defeat this monster and
Maximillian will perform a new move. You might want to ENCHANT your sword
before you exit out of this room into the hallway. Three slices should kill
the Horror. Go up the stairs into the Second Floor hallway and head left to
the end of the corridor. SEARCH behind the small countertop on the left and
you will find a letter stashed behind it. Read it and you receive the Basement
Key, go back down to the main hall, but you will have to fight the Horror
beast again, but this is important. Defeat the Horror to get your last
alignment rune. Go to the east and stand in front of the wall with the symbol
on it, use the OPPOSITE alignment on it using the Reveal spell. Use the
Basement Key on this door and go through.
In the basement, there are two zombies. There is an ammunition for the
Flintlock along the crates in the north wall, pick up the "Damage Field" spell
next to the water pump. Use the Pump Handle on the water pump to drain the
water. Climb down to the second part of this basement. Defeat the lone zombie
here and take the Bankorok rune, and you discovered the Damage Field spell!
Proceed ahead and on the balcony, overlooking the city, then go back out
to the stairs and the Bankorok seal will fade away. Continue down the stairs
and heal yourself, sanity and health.
Boss Battle: You will face a Guardian of your alignment. It doesn't attack
or run/walk around, instead it casts magic spell. Flintlock Pistol is the
best weapon for this type of battle, 5-10 shots of this gun kills this monster.
But you have to be CLOSE to the monster to be able to finish it off quickly.
The beast will sometimes cast zombie out into the field to go after you. After
the battle ends, watch the cut-scene.
Xel'lotath path: Shoot at it with your Flintlocks, you can enchant it with the
Chattur'gha alignment if you want.
Ulyaoth path: Shoot at it with your Flintlocks, you can enchant it with the
Xel'lotath alignment if you want.
Chattur'gha path: Shoot at it with your Flintlocks, you can enchant it with
the Ulyaoth alignment if you want, plus, I feel that this
guardian for this type of path is stronger than the other
two.
-------------------------------Alexandra Roivas-------------------------------
Alex returns back in the secret room behind the library, exit out of the room and
then the library too, into the Main Hall. Go up the stairs and turn right into
Bedroom #1. Head over to the dresser in the north and use the Reveal Invisible
spell on it, using the opposite alignment of the alignment on the dresser. Once
you perform the spell, this removes the alignment and reveals the lock. You have
the Dresser Key, right? Use this key on the dresser. Yay! Finally something
for protection in this scary mansion, and a Chapter page too. Use the Chapter
page to move onto the next chapter.
*CHAPTER SIX*
------------------------------Dr. Edwin Lindsey-------------------------------
A Journey into Darkness
Angkor Thom Region, Cambodia, 1983 A.D.
Watch the cut-scene at the beginning of this chapter, and Pious has released
a guardian of your alignment on you, it is a bird-like monster. Shoot at it
with your Shotgun, ONLY when its wings are open and spreaded out. Search
the middle of the room and use your Archaeologist brush to clear out the dust.
You have discovered a Bronze Bracelet, grab it and use it on the statue in the
western par tof this room. This open the passage to the south. Go through it.
You will end up in a room with a walkway and a large hand at the end, holding
the Tome of Eternal Darkness. Grab the book and you will return in the same
room again, go through the hallway. Two zombies in this next room, but they
will fight each other, use the Kukri to finish one out and kill the other.
Go east, into the hallway and use your pistol on the Trapper in here. In the
middle of this hallway is a Metal Bracelet laying on a ledge, grab it and
continue down to the end of this hallway until you see a cobweb in the corner.
Use the Archaeologist brush on it, you will find a tablet scribbled "Tier" on
it, take it, then proceed into the next room.
This room contains a Horror, but it is blocked in a shield, grab the Bronze
Medal sitting close to it and then go back to the first room. In the first
room, place the Bronze Medal on the statue and this opens another passage, but
up north this time. Enter this part of the temple and take the Silver Bracelet
from in front of Naja, a snake-headed statue and this activate a trap. There
is no way out...hope you have that Metal Bracelet with you, use it on the
statue and this opens the way out. Go east, into the hallway of traps, just
RUN down and you'll meet up with some zombies, kill them and inspect the
cobweb in the corner, a tablet with "Nethlek" scribbled on it, take it. Go
into the next room. 4 zombies patrols this room, kill them all, one of them
holds a rune.
Go all the back to the room with the Horror stuck inside a shield, since you
got the Nethlek rune, you can create a new spell with Redgormer and Nethlek
in it and use the alignment that is strong against this shield. This removes
the shield that holds the Horror, defeat the Horror and enter the hallway up
north, run through the traps and in the middle of the hallway, use your
Achaeologist brush on the cobweb and grab the scroll. This is a Dispel Magick
scroll. Across from where you got the scroll is another statue. Use the Silver
Necklace and Silver Bracelet on the statue, and this open the secret passage
behind you.
Go down the stairs, killing zombies along the way, one of them holds a rune.
There will be a bird-like monster at the bottom, kill it with your shotgun,
only when its wings are spreaded out, then proceed into the next hallway. Turn
north through the trap and into the room with the Horror and a red shield
with the pedestral in the middle, cast the Dispel Magick using the strongest
alignment on it and this will take away the shield. Then go to the cobweb in
the northern part of the room and use the Archaeologist brush on it, take the
Necklace. Go into the hallway to the east, through the trap, but it also
has poisonous gas that filled the second half. Just RUN through it into the
next room. Two red zombies secures this room, kill them both. Then use the
Dispel Magick using the strongest alignment on the shield. Run through the
hallway to the south into the next room. This room also has a shield, use
the green alignment to get rid of it and kill the zombie in here as well.
There is a small basin in the south of this room, use the Necklace in the
basin and the acid will help clean the necklace, and then the necklace turns
into a Gold Necklace! Go west and run through the hallway of traps into the
next room.
Once you enter this room, it looks like someone is actually standing there,
but its just a statue. There is another statue across from it holding an
item. Step onto the circular platform on the floor behind the standing
statue, and RUN and SNATCH the item that the goddess statue was holding.
Go back through the trap, into the room, then through another trap, but stop
in the middle of this hallway and QUICKLY use the Gold Necklace and Gold
Bracelet on the statue, why quickly? because there is poisonous gas filling
this hallway up, lowering your health. Once you place both items on, exit out
of this hallway into the secret passageway behind you. Go down the stairs,
fighting off a pair of zombies and a Horror. Proceed down until you enter
the next room, turn and go north, through the traps into the next room
with a large face of a statue on the floor, kill off the zombies here and
inspect the cobweb on the side of the face, get rid of it with your
Archaeologist brush, you will find a rune with "Aretak" scribbled on it. Go
west through the traps into the next room. This room is filled with red
zombies, kill all of them and go south through another hallway of traps and
into the next room. This room holds two zombie and another one holding a rune
inside its body. Kill all three and grab the rune from one of them. Go east
and run through another hallway of traps into the next room. This room is
also filled with zombies, kill all of them and grab the spell from the middle
of the room.
Go all the way back upstairs and then turn south, then west. Stop in the
middle of this hallway and examine the wall where the purple shield was.
Use the Summon Trapper spell here. Send the Trapper into the small hole, make
the Trapper to cross the bridge and stand on the purple symbol on the other
side. This opens a door, take control of Edwin again and grab the Mantorok
rune from behind you. The debris explodes and a Horror comes after you, take
a good aim at it with your Shotgun and kill it. Go into the room and kill
the other Horror. Go all the way back downstairs, through all the rooms
and hallways into the very last room with the huge Mantorok. Watch the
cut-scene and enter the door behind Mantorok, and watch another cut-scene to
end this chapter.
-------------------------------Alexandra Roivas-------------------------------
At the end of Edwin's last cut-scene, a scientist look-a-like hid the heart
of the Mantorok in the bookcase and this place looks like a library. Go
to the library and look at one of the bookcases with "The Demon and the Khmer"
as the title of one of the books. Search behind it and you will find a heart
inside a glass dome, take it. Go into the Main Hall and up the stairs, turn
left and go to the stained glass window with some kind of a shield. Use the
Dispel Magick on it and you will see an object float in the air, take it and
you found the next Chapter page, titled "Heresy!", use it.
*CHAPTER SEVEN*
---------------------------------Paul Luther----------------------------------
Heresy!
Amiens, France, 1485 A.D.
You start out in the cathedral where you were playing as Anthony..but...it has
changed a lot. Go inside and run down towards the casket and a cut-scene will
play. After the cut-scene, you are taken back in a cell. Search the painting
and grab the Emerald from it and another cut-scene will occur. A monk wants
you to meet him in the bell tower, go through the door. You will be in a
chamber of statues of other dead people you've played as, except for Edwin.
Take the book from the hand and you will be taken back in the same spot. Go
through the door again and run straight to the west, do not go in the
cathedral yet. Go up the stairs through the door, run straight across and
ignore the zombie, and through another door. Go up the steps and ring the
bell. The monk will come, talk to him and he will give you the key to the
Old Tower.
Exit out of this bell tower area and enter the cathedral, follow the red
carpet towards the end and turn left and go through the door at the end. Search
the closet in the room to find a Podium Key. Open the chest to get the
Crossbow, then leave the room. On your way down, grab the torch from the wall
on the left. Stop in the middle of this red carpet and get on the podium,
inspect it and use the Podium Key on it. You found the first page of Andrew's
Diary inside. Go north and down the stairs, turn left and go through the
door in the corner. Pick up the quiver on the floor then grab the Book of
Reliquaries. Go around the hallway and pick up another quiver of Crossbow
Bolts by the barrels and grab the Mace across from it. Go back upstairs and
once you reach on the main red carpet, go right and use the Old Tower Key on
the door.
Inside, a Bonethief will attack a monk. Kill the monk and the Bonethief inside
as well and in the east of this room on a table lies a scroll. This scroll
is titled "Shield" and you already have the runes for it. Go upstairs and
another Bonethief lurks here, kill it and search the bookcase in the corner
in front of the stairs to get a Sheet of Music, and page 2 of Andrew's diary
from the desk. Go back downstairs and don't go through the door yet, instead
there is another door in here, go through the rows of bench up north and
through this door.
Inside, you will see the remaining of Anthony's body, hes still alive!! Use
the Shield on you and enchant your Mace and finish him off! After the battle,
you will receive a red ruby and the Two-Edged Sword. Exit out of this Old Tower
area back into the Main Hall with the red carpeting. Go to the piano to the
left of the podium and play the piano, by pressing A, B, Y, X, B, Y, A. This
opens the cabinet to the right of the podium. Grab the Five-Point Circle of
Power when you are there. Go down the steps behind the podium again and head
straight down and turn left into a wine cellar. Check the second wine from
the right and this open a secret room.
Make sure you use Shield and enchant your two-edged sword, then proceed into
the secret room. Inside will be a Horror, after you defeat it, you will
receive a Sapphire. Go to the pedestral and place all three rubies in the
indentations. This opens a secret stairway to the basement.
Three zombies in this hallway, kill them, then go through the door at the end
of this short hallway. One giant zombie...holy mackeral, this zombie is HUGE!
but he holds a rune inside him, along with 3 other zombies, kill all of them,
especially the huge one, but the easiest way to kill the big zombie is with
one touch of your torch. Go through the door in the west and down the stairs
through another door.
In this room, two Horrors of different alignment will fight each other, don't
worry, just let them fight it out and beat the winner, but fighting two
Horrors in the same room would be a pain. Pick up the quiver of bolts here
and go through the door in the west, through this long hallway into the next
room. Two red zombies patrols this room, kill them both and keep continuing
into the next hallway. Two zombies in this hallway, kill them and head into
the room ahead. A lone zombie secures this room, finish him off and grab
page 3 of Andrew's diary in front of the shrine and a Pargon codex from the
ledge to the right. Go all the way back to the bell tower with all three
pages of Andrew's diary. Talk to the monk when you get there, he will give
you the Sacrifical Knife. Are you out of breath yet? because you are going
to go all the way back to the room where the two Horrors fought each other.
Oh great! At one corner of this room is an effigy of a monk, slide the
Sacrifical Blade in it and this slides the wall, revealing a secret door
behind you. Go through the door and you will see a barrier with five different
signs on the floor. Create a NEW spell using the five-points. Set it up like
this - any alignment, Pargon, Pargon, Redgormor, Nethlek - and you will create
a powerful Dispel Magick. Perform the spell and this removes the barrier. Go
around the room until you see a body on a platform. Inspect it and watch the
cut-scene after it. Two Bonethieves attack you, put an end to their life and
then go back around the room again into where you used the Sacrifical Knife.
Go through the door that you hasn't gone through yet, which is the northeast
door, where the monk just went through. Go through the hallway and through the
door, head down the stairs and go through another door. Watch the cut-scene
and the end for Paul's chapter.
-------------------------------Alexandra Roivas--------------------------------
After the chapter, you receive a note from Edward. If you read it, Edward
order you to look for the 88 keys to continue on the journey. Does he mean
to find 88 keys? or 88 keys in a ring? or the 88 keys of the piano? Exit
out of the library and across the Main Hall into the Dining Room through
the north door. Stand in front of the piano and play the same key that you
played when you were Paul Luther - A, B, Y, X, B, Y, A - then the top of
the piano opens, revealing the next chapter page inside. Use it whenever you
are ready to go into the next chapter.
CHAPTER EIGHT
-------------------------------Roberto Bianchi--------------------------------
The Forbidden City
Middle East, 1460 A.D.
After the cut-scene, you found yourself in some kind of a underground temple
beneath the monument. Run to the end of the narrow corridor and climb up the
ladder, run across the room and go down the ladder. Go around the corner and
climb up another ladder. Talk to the guy here and do his survey. Take the
crossbow bolts near the ladder and grab the Saif near the ladder on the other
side. Then go down the ladder. You will enter a room with a little puzzle.
There is a lever in one of the corners in this room, pull it to raise the
first gate, this one has one blue zombie after you, kill it and go in the
cell, pull this lever and the gate across from it will raise, releasing two
red zombies, kill them as well, then pull the lever in this cell. The front
gate will raise halfway while the gate ahead will raise all the way up. Go
through and climb up the ladder. Grab the crossbow bolts from near the ladder
and the Crossbow sitting on the ledge in this room. Survey the site in the
north where the large gong hangs in the air. Go across the room and head
down the ladder. You will be transported to the part where you pick up
the Tome of Eternal Darkness from the hand again and a new addition, the
statue of Paul Luther.
Back in the same room again, go down the ladder and several Trappers patrols
this hallway, sneak all the way to the end and climb up the ladder. In this
room will be a Gatekeeper, a zombie and a trapper. Kill the Gatekeeper first,
then the zombie or the Trapper. Grab the Summon Zombie scroll in the middle of
this room. This scroll is titled "Summon Zombie". Climb down the ladder in
the south of this room and fight with some Horrors. Run to the end of the
hallway and through the door. Inside, a dumb red zombie walk into the trap, and
got pancaked. So..you know what NOT TO DO, don't go in that trap. But...instead
use the Summon Zombie spell and summon a zombie, walk your zombie and act dumb
and walk into the trap, hey! this zombie isn't dumb! he just raised the gate,
allowing you to move on!
Go down the ladder, you will see a Gatekeeper patrolling this hallway. Kill
this enemy and any other creature that it summoned. Continue down and watch
the cut-scene. Pick up this Essence of Ulyaoth and a Ruby Effigy if you got
it as Karim, then survey this area before you move on. Go back to the room
where the dumb red zombie was. Go through the door to the left of the trap.
In here, four blue zombies lurks in here, kill them all and then climb down
the ladder. Couple Trappers skitters around in this room, sneak past them
and through the door to the left. A Horror and a zombie secures this room,
kill them both then stand in front of the pedestral in front of the entrance
where you came in. Use the five-point Reveal Invisible spell on it
(Any alignment, Pargon, Redgormor, Narokath, Pargon) and this makes the
path visible to get to the center of this room. Pick up the Forgotten Corridor
Key on the stone block. Exit out of this room and before you go up the ladder,
grab the Sapphire Effigy on the left. Once you are back in the hallway, a
quiver of bolts sits on the ledge to the left of the ladder, grab it if you
want to. Go through the door on the left (not the double door) and create a
new five-point Damage Field spell (Any alignment, Pargon, Redgormor, Bankorok,
Pargon) and perform it in here. Survey the room and the slaves will go after
you, once defeated, a Bonethief hid inside each one's body, kill them as
well. Once you are done, exit this room and prepare another new spell, a
five-point Shield spell (Mantorok, Pargon, Santak, Bankorok, Pargon) and
go through the double door using the Forbidden Corridor Key. Run through the
hallway, and don't stop, until you go through the door at the end. Go in
this large chamber with a pit in the middle. To the right is a rope, target
it and chop it down with your Saif and this drops the bridge down. Two worms
will spring up, with one swing of your Saif will kill them, then continue
to cross the bridge and pull the lever at the end. Survey the area on the
bridge and this is the last survey you have to do. Go all the way back to
the beginning to end the chapter.
-------------------------------Alexandra Roivas--------------------------------
In the secret room, go to the part ACROSS from the desk, there is a poster
on the wall, survey the area there. There is a chapter page titled "A War to
End All Wars" tucked behind the poster. Use it to go into the next chapter.
*CHAPTER NINE*
---------------------------------Peter Jacobs----------------------------------
A War to End All Wars
Amiens, France 1916 A.D.
You are in the same cathedral when you were Anthony and Paul Luther, just a
little change, but the rooms are the same. Behind you is a letter from a
soldier waiting to be sent home. Grab this and head north to the altar. On
the altar is a Sealed Envelope, open the envelope and you found the Soldier's
Orders. Run south through the aisle and through the door at the end. Go right
and pass the medical supplies here to the door. Run across the room and
through another door, on one of the crates is another one of Pvt. Jackson's
letters, grab this and head back down to the ground floor. Go up to the guard
who is standing in front of the door, give him the Soldier's Orders and he will
move out of the way. Go through the door here and pick up the Revolver in here.
When you leave, you will be transported to the chamber where you have to take
the book from the hand again, and a new addition in the chamber as well, a
statue of Roberto Bianchi.
Exit the room where you got the Revolver and go into the first room, but be
careful, couple of Bonethieves and even the hospital staffs are after you,
either stun them with your Flash Pan or run down to the altar and pick up the
Shotgun on it and go down the stairs behind it. Go take the first left and
through the door, pick up the ammunition for your rifle in here then leave
the room. Run around the hallway and pick up two more ammunitions for your
rifle here. Go through the door in the south and then take a left through
another door.
You will be in the boiler room, examine the boiler and turn the wheel to start,
then go through the door to the west, but something is on the other side of
the door, but what is it? Hmm...summon a Trapper and send the critter through
the hole in the wall and go right, you will see a dead soldier fallen against
the door, target him and send him away. Try the door again, Aha! Now you got
through. In here, grab the Seven-Point Circle of Power from the pedestral.
Exit this room and the boiler room as well, run across this hall, what used to
be a wine cellar, through another door. Pick up the rifle ammunition on the
crate here. Go to the wall and examine it. Here lies a fusebox, but its
missing a fuse, hmm, you have to be lucky to find the fuse....did I say lucky?
Why, yes I did! Use the Lucky Penny on the fusebox and this gives power to
the circuit.
Go all the way back to the first room, but run to the Old Tower, which is to
the right. Avoid the Bonethieves here and go up the stairs, in here you will
find another ammunition for your rifle and the Two-Edged sword. Go back down
the stairs and kill the Bonethieves here. Go into the first room and head for
the piano, grab the Sheet of Music that is sitting on top if it, then play
the piano by pressing the buttons that was shown on the sheet (A, B, Y, X, B,
Y, A). This triggers the cabinet doors to open, go to it and grab the Door
Handle out of it. Go all the way to the left until you stand in front of the
seven-points sign on the wall, use the seven-point Reveal Invisible spell on
it and make the door visible. Use the Door Handle on it and then open the door.
In this next room, grab the two boxes on the crate for your Revolver and
another one across from them for your Shotgun. Climb down and go through the
door at the end of this corridor. Couple zombies comes after you in this room,
some hides Bonethief in their body. Go through the door in the north and
down the stairs and prepare yourself for another battle. Two zombies and a
Horror walk around in this room, kill them all and go through the door to the
west. Two Trappers patrol this hallway, either go into the Trapper Dimension
to replenish your health/sanity/magick or sneak pass them into the next room.
A lone Bonethief awaits you here, kill it and pick up the Soldier's Letter on
the floor. Go across the room adn through the door, through this corridor into
the next room, a zombie and a trapper here, kill them and grab the Binding Hall
Key here. Go all the way back to where you fought the two zombies and a
Horror, take the door to the south. Go around the balcony here and pick up the
Magickal Elixir on the stone. Exit out of here and use the Binding Hall key
on the east door, go through it, and there will be three zombies in this
hallway. Kill them and go through the door at the end, down the steps and
at the end is a spell scroll on the wall titled "Magickal Attack". Prepare
yourself before you go through the door here. You will fight a Greater
Guardian and one of the longest battles in the game so far:
------------------------------XEL'LOTATH PATH----------------------------------
First Battle: After the Greater Guardian casts its green bolts on you, move out
of the way and then attack back by casting a three-point Magickal
Attack of an alignment STRONGEST against the Guardian's alignment.
Keep doing it until he move the green barrier closer to you.
Second Battle: The green barrier got closer and he now casts 3 zombies to go
after you, this is easy, after the THIRD ZOMBIE appear, cast a
five-point Magickal Attack spell of an alignment STRONGEST
against his. Keep doing it until he move the green barrier
closer between you and him.
Third Battle: He will shoots a powerful green bolt at you from above, keep
running/walking out of the way until he stops for a while, this
is a good time to cast a three-point Magickal Attack on him, and
keep running from the green bolt he shoots at you until he tires
again. Do the same process until you defeat him.
---------------------------------ULYAOTH PATH----------------------------------
First Battle: The Guardian will shoots three energy or blue balls at you.
Run around and avoid being hit by the balls, or you can shoot
them off if you want to. When the Guardian rest, perform a
Magick Attack of three-point with Xel'lotath, do this a couple
time until he perform the next battle.
Second Battle: He will now raise the deads, this is just the same battle
strategy as the one on the Xel'lotath path, cast a Magickal
Attack of five-point with Xel'lotath, only do this when the
third zombie fully appear, keep doing this until the guardian
make his next move.
Third Battle: This is even more dangerous, the guardian uses its feet to
squash you like a spider...I wanna see Eight Legged Freaks,
anyway, run around until he stops stomping, this is the good
time to cast a three-point Magick Attack with the Xel'lotath
alignment.
-------------------------------CHATTUR'GHA PATH-------------------------------
First Battle: This path against the guardian is the toughest! The guardian
shoots out energy balls and if you get too close to the enemy,
it will use its tongue to damage you or its claws too. After
he stop shooting energy balls, quickly perform a Magickal Attack
with a three-point Ulyaoth, do this a couple times until he plan
out his next battle strategy.
Second Battle: Same second battle as the one in the Xel'lotath and Ulyaoth
path, after the third zombie show up, cast a five-point
Magickal Attack with the Ulyaoth alignment, keep doing this
until he begin his final battle.
Third Battle: The guardian will now squash you like a mosquito with its
huge claws. When he get tired from doing this, this is a good
time to perform a Magickal Attack of three-point with the
Ulyaoth alignment, do this a couple times to end its life.
Take the essence and this ends the chapter. Watch the cut-scene.
-------------------------------Alexandra Roivas-------------------------------
You found the Lucky Penny in the back of Peter's chapter. Leave this room and
go into the library and a ghost appears, asking for help. As you go and talk
to her, she says she can't get the blood out...out of what? Grab the Basement
Key and exit out of the library into the Main Hall. Once here, use the Basement
Key on the north door and go down. Take a left when you reach the floor and you
will see a Shotgun mounted on the wall, take it. Go all the way to the right
and open the fuse box on the wall, use your Lucky Penny on it and this will
light up one of the rooms upstairs. Go all the way to the second floor and
turn left at the T-intersection and go through the door STRAIGHT AHEAD, not
the one on the right. You will appear in another bathroom, grab the journal
on the chest. Examine the sink and open the cabinet, inside is a Chapter page,
use it to proceed into the next story.
*CHAPTER TEN*
------------------------------Dr. Edward Roivas--------------------------------
A Legacy of Darkness
Rhode Island, 1952 A.D.
You start out in the middle of the library, take the Historical Journal on the
fireplace mantle. Go in the back of the library and a ghost of Maximillian
Roivas will appear, watch the cut-scene, when its done, pick up the Magick
Pool spell on the chair. Don't adjust the clock yet, instead go to the Dining
Room and grab the Sabre mounted on the wall, exit the Dining Room and head
upstairs into what was Maximillian's Room and grab another section of the
Historical Journal. Head back downstairs and in the library, in front of
the grandfather clock, inspect the book and you will find the Hour Hand
inside and the Minute Hand in the other one. Go in the secret room and pick
up the book and at least 4 ammunitions here, Edward is one dangerous man.
It is wise to enchant your sword, leave this room and into the library, you
will see a monster that sucks blood from a servant like a vampire, hey, we'll
call this new monster Vampire. The servant has become one of them, chop her
head off with your sabre and pick up the bottom half of the key on the floor
around the broken vase. Go into bedroom to the right of the T-intersection
upstairs, a Vampire continues his killing spree, but SAVE THIS SERVANT! He
will give you the key to the gun cabinet if you save him. There are some
ammunitions laying around here, pick them up and head for the gun cabinet!
Use the key on the gun cabinet and grab this powerful Elephant Gun with the
strongest kick in the shoulder. The Vampire will come in the room soon, so
enchant the sabre and hack it in the head a couple times until it runs away.
Equip the Elephant Gun and go downstairs, the vampire is still on its spree,
but this time, the good position would be to wait in front of the library door,
facing the basement door up north, when you see the Vampire, SHOOT IT with this
amazing gun and the vampire will drop the Top Half of the key. Mix the key
together and it will become the Broken Basement Key. Enchant the key and it
will become the Basement Key. Enchant your sabre and use the basement key, then
go down.
In the basement, you will be battling the vampire. Before battling the monster,
take a couple swings on the gravestone thing in the well so that way the
vampire won't replenish its health. Battle the vampire alone with your
enchanted sabre and take a couple good hacks at it until its defeated. Finish
it off. Ammunitions are everywhere in the basement, take them all and the
double shotgun on the wall. Grab the Summon Horror spell scroll on the
bookcase. Go down the ladder in the well.
Cast a Shield spell and enchant your weapon, go all the way down the stairs
and at the base, kill the two Horrors with your Shotgun. Go down the stairs
and kill another Horror here and the Lesser Guardian. Once you kill them both,
go through the double door. In this weird room, walk across the small bridge
and go to either one of the blue switches to turn on the transporter. Step
into it and you will be on one of the towers in the city. After placing the
runes in or the alignment, you'll be transported into a room and defeat
different type of monster you've faced before, such as Trapper, Horror, Lesser
Guardian, Zombie, etc. and pull the lever in the back of the room.
I've summarized how the arrays thing worked out from left to right:
1st: Pargon
2nd: Redgormor
3rd: Pargon
4th: Pargon
5th: Alignment (Red beat green, green beat blue, blue beat red)
6th: Pargon
7th: Pargon
8th: Nethlek
9th: Pargon
Once all of the arrays are completed and the nine-point circle of power is
completed, it is time to leave the place, exit out of this chamber and the
other chamber as well, go up the long stairs back towards the basement.
A cut-scene will occur at the middle of the stairs. This ends the chapter.
-------------------------------Alexandra Roivas-------------------------------
You will automatically receive a note from Edward that was in the book. Exit
out of this room to the basement. Grab the Pickax in between the barrels, you have to
search the area though, Go all the way back upstairs to the second floor and turn left
Examine the wall, you will notice that it isn't even with the hallway. Use the Pickax
here and enter the secret room. Use the Dispel Magick spell in the middle of the room
using the alignment against it to remove the barrier in the middle. Pick up the
Stethoscope and a page from Maximillian Roivas' Journal. Go all the way back to the
basement, but watch out for Bonethieves and Zombies. Go to the safe and use the
Stethoscope on it.
*CHAPTER ELEVEN*
--------------------------------Michael Edwards-------------------------------
Ashes to Ashes
Middle East, 1991 A.D.
You start out in a room with the monument in the center where Roberto got
cemented, he gave you the essence, and two effigies if you collected them as
Roberto and Karim. Fight the zombies in here and examine on a corpse to get the
Assault Rifle, 5.56 Rifle Ammunition, Pistol, 9mm Pistol Ammunition and some
Grenades! Oh Yeah! Go through the door to the south, inside will be a Gatekeeper
kill it and then go down the ladder.
In this underground corridor, take the first ladder up. In here will be two
Gatekeepers, kill both of them and grab the Gold Amulet next to the ladder.
Go back down and continue down the corridor, go up the next ladder and kill
off some zombies here and grab the staff in the middle. Mix the Staff and
the Gold Amulet together. Go back down the ladder and continue down to the
last ladder in the corridor and in this room, place the staff in the hole.
You get to control the staff and burn the two buildings in the model then
the big one in the middle and this opens a secret passageway. Once you
go down, you will be in the chamber where you have to take the Tome of Eternal
Darkness from the hand. Once you appear in the same room again, go down the
new passageway.
Inside, three Trappers patrols this room, kill them all with your pistol. Go
up the ladder at the end, in this room, two Horrors will attack you, use the
assault rifle and take a good couple of shots at their head. Go down the
ladder at the other side of the room.
You will appear in a hallway, go pass the ladder and at the end, equip your
pistol if you want to, and shoot the weird-looking tentacles and cast a
five-point Dispel Magick spell to remove the barrier. Grab the emerald effigy
and go up the ladder in the middle of this hallway. In this room will be some
enemies, such as zombies and a single Horror. Climb down the ladder in the
middle of the room. There will be a Gatekeeper after you in this hallway,
kill it and proceed through the door at the end. There will be 4 Trappers
in this room, go through the only door in here and through the door
on the right, next to the ladder.
In this room, there are three bas-reliefs of different colors. Place the
Sapphire Effigy under the green Scholar, Emerald Effigy under the red Warrior,
and finally the Ruby Effigy under the blue Sorcerer. This opens a new stairway
back in where the four Trappers was. Go back in that room and down the stairs,
grab the auto-enchanted Gladius, you cannot use this weapon as Michael, I
wonder who. Go back up and through the door to the east and stand in front
of the obelisk. Summon a Trapper here and use the Trapper to target the obelisk
and send it away, revealing a ladder behind it.
Go down the ladder and down another ladder at the end here in this short
hallway. Grab the Bind spell scroll behind you and go around the corner.
You will see two Horrors behind a barrier, create a seven-point Bind spell
with the alignment stronger than the colored barrier. The Horrors will
fight against each other and kill the winner. Grab the Plastic Explosive in
the back behind them, exit out of this area by going up the ladder, through
the hallway and up another ladder. Go all the east and stand in front of a
curtain and cast the seven-point Reveal Invisible spell on it. Go through the
hallway here and you will see a corpse on the ground, pick up the Detonator
Caps from his hand. Shield yourself with a seven-point Mantorok and RUN
through this electrified/yellow hallway into the next room.
Go walk on the bridge and kill the tentacles that pops out with your pistol.
Now, mix the Detonator Caps with the C4 (Plastic Explosive) and enchant it
with a seven-point of an alignment that is against yours. RUN! RUN! RUN! all
the way back to the room after the room you start the chapter in, but you have
to take a little detour:
Exit out of the electrifying hallway, run pass the Horror into the next room.
Avoid the zombies and exit out of this room too. In the next room with 6 or so
zombies, the door on your way out is blocked, OH THANK YOU GOD! THANK YOU! but
no worry! take the door to the right of the door you came in through. This
here is a little detour. Avoid all of the baby zombies run through this
corridor here and up the ladder at the end. In this dark room, run to the left
and down the ladder at the southern end of this room. Next, AVOID FIGHTING the
two Horrors in this narrow corridor and up the ladder. Once here, just go for
the exit behind you, ending this chapter.
-------------------------------Alexandra Roivas-------------------------------
From this secret room, go out to the Main Hall while killing zombies on the
way. Once you are in the Main Hall, you will heard a noise, and a cut-scene
goes to the front door and you will see a Brown Paper Parcel, pick this up
and inside will be the last essence you need and the Enchanted Gladius if
you picked it up as Michael Edwards. Exit out of the foyer and go into the
library and go through the door in the south in which look like an Observatory.
Got that crankshaft from the safe in the basement? Good, now use it on the
telescope and tilt the control pad to the right until it hits the mirror on the
wall. When it does, adjust the mirror on the wall until it hits another mirror
on the wall. Go to that mirror and adjust it so that it hit the globe on the
floor, once completed, a secret hatch below the floor will move, revealing a
hole.
Exit out of the observatory and go to the basement. In here, go through the door
to the right of the well, and then climb down the ladder. Go down the long
stairway until you are in the next part of the big area. Just run through the
area and go down the steps into the blue hallway. You will get a message about
summoning an ancient to fight Pious the Liche and she need the power of the
three artifacts (two essences and the Mantorok essence) to have the power.
This room's floor is covered with electricity. Shield yourself with a seven
point Mantorok and RUN to the end and go to the right on the top of the steps
where the area is clear of the electricity. Here, cast a even-point Dispel
Magick with the Mantorok rune and this removes the barrier in front of the
door ahead. Cast on yourself with a small three-point Shield and run to the
door and go through it. In here, pick up the two Pedestral Fragments that are
laying on the floor and mix them together and then enchant it. Use it on one
of the three pedestrals here. Then put one essence on top of each pedestral,
this turns on the array. Here, you have to do the whole tower thing again
like what you did when you were Edward. Here is how it goes from left to right:
1st: Pargon. Go forward and up the steps in this chamber, cast a seven-point
Reveal Invisible spell here using the strong alignment to reveal a brigde
over the pit, go left to exit out of this chamber.
2nd: Aretak. Couple Trappers in this chamber, kill them and exit out of this
chamber.
3rd: Pargon. This is a weird chamber, but simple. Summon a Ulyaoth Trapper in
the circle, and same with the Chattur'gha zombie and Xel'lotath Horror.
4th: Pargon. Do not run or walk on the purple floor, or a worm will leap out
and drain your sanity. You know what to do, SNEAK to the exit.
5th: Alignment strongest against the current path you are on. The chamber has
several Trappers, kill them off with your pistol.
6th: Pargon. This chamber will contains invisible Trappers, there are at least
7 or 8 of them, kill all of them then exit the room.
7th: Pargon. A small scene will show 3 alignments and a purple shield blocking
your exit. This is an easy one, cast a seven-point of any alignment using
Magickal Attack and this will rtemove the purple shield.
8th: Tier. In this chamber, the floor is filled with electricity, go around the
stone block and you will see a shield blocking your exit. Do a seven-point
Dispel Magick with the Mantorok to remove the shield. Cast Sheld on
yourself and go for the exit.
9th: Pargon. This chamber has a large shield with three Horrors inside. Cast
a level seven Bind spell twice to make all three Horrors attack each
other, leaving the winner left, kill the winner and exit out of this
final chamber.
After you have completed all of the towers, prepare for a battle, and this
time, it is against Pious! the Liche!
If you have the Enchanted Gladius, it make the battle more easier. If not,
you'll have to gain your magick somehow. Pious gives a big swing at you,
avoid the swing and attack him after he miss. Once you hit Pious, the essence
will appear in the back, go up to it and hack it with your sword. Do this two
more times and you will be Ellia, you can't do much as a ghost character, go
to the essence and hit it, you will return as Alex, have Alex take a swing at
Pious and Pious will call the essence back and hack the essence again, this
time, you will be Anthony, have him hit the essence and then you'll be Alex
again, do the same process for Karim, Maximillian, Paul, and Roberto.
After the essence explodes, enchant the shotgun to a Mantorok alignment, and
start blasting off at Pious, about 10-15 shots will finish him off, but
if you do it from close range, it can go less than 10 shots. Kill him to end
the game!

This is the "Forgeries of the Reliquaries", dating back to the late

people from outside their region to their diocese, and thus become more
lucrative.
Whiel it could be said that a false hope is still hope, relics such as

Please help yourself to what you can find. My guess is that
I won't be needing it.
Your loving Grandfather,
Edward."
-Historical Journal (Edward) -An old musty book, bound in dry dusty
leather. This book covers the early history
of the Roivas family, dating back before the
settlers in this land. There appears to be
something pressed between the pages.
-Hour Hand (Edward) -This appears to be the hour hand of a large
clock, made from stamped brass.
-Journal of M. Roivas, p1 -This is a page from Maximillian Roivas'
(Alex) Journal. It reads: "Everything that brightened
my life now engulfed me in darkness. I fed
on the light of truth yet starved on the
shadows of lies. I have learned through my
lifetime but know less than a newborn baby."
-Journal of M. Roivas, p2 -This is a page from Maximillian Roivas'
(Alex) Journal. It reads: "I sought to love all yet
now love causes me pain and suffering. I have
learned to fear nothing although it is nothing
that I most fear. All that were loyal to me
now number among my worst enemies."
-Journal of M. Roivas, closing -This is a page from Maximillian Roivas'
note (Alex) Journal. It reads: "As I comtemplated these
ideas, my suspicions of my servants grew and
I became increasingly fearful of them. I began
to watch them carefully...
Days ago I watched one of them stretch his
neck. I could have sworn I saw it twist in a
most peculiar direction, and a bulge of muscle
tissue collect and grow in the most incorrect
of manners, as if a bone was being displaced
from its proper location and something else
moving in its place. I stumbled away knowing
that I was surrounded by unholy creatures that
wore the skins of mortal men and women!
I had to take action! Dear God, let my hand
be swift and merciful, lest the world see more
of these diabolic creatures!"
-Letter #1 (Maximillian)
A letter, written with some precision, in longhand:
"Dear Friend,
The antiquity of which you ask is indeed the Tome of
Eternal Darkness, or a copy of it, at least. Its
secrets are still hidden from me, for I have been
unable to read it, as have most scholars who have
tried.
It will remain within the sanctity of the mansion, for
in the wrong hands it would be a powerful weapon.
Peruse it if you will, but beware its magick...It is
a harsh mistress.
Aaron Roivas."
-Letter #2 (Maximillian)
A letter, scrawled by a panicked hand, with clotted ink:
"Dear Friend,
The house has been forsaken by the Ancients - I dare
not enter it for fear of my mortal soul. I would
suggest that you leave also. Bring the book. It is a
far more potent tool than you have learned, and may
well swing the balance in our favor.
Aaron Roivas."
-Letter #3 (Maximillian)
A letter, scrawled almost indecipherably by a wavering hand:
"Dear Friend,
As I suspected, the Ruins of Ehn'gha - that blasted
necropolis - lie deep under the site of the mansion!
The accursed servants of Xel'lolath are so close I
can almost hear their chittering!!
There is a secret opening in the basement, and from
there we can gain access... I urge you to gather some
men and seal it, or better still destroy that damned
place!! I have stowed something that you will find
useful on the upper level. Look to the light, and you
will find it. I wish that I could be at your side, but
my ailment worsens daily and I know that my time is
short...
Aaron Roivas."
-Letter #4 (Maximillian)
The letter, written in a scrawling hand, reads:
"Dear Friend,
As I expected, the beasts are drawing closer to our
discovery. They want the book for themselves it seems,
and do not want us to have it in our possession. I
have taken steps to ensure that their ilk will not
touch the key in this envelope, should you fall prey
to their claws.
The envelope containing the basement key has been
sealed with a corrosive magick - if one not aligned
to us tries to handle it, it will be released
inflicting painl, suffering and a grievous blow to
their sanity, should they have any left!
Be swift with your task!
Aaron Roivas."
-Letter from Edward (Alex)
Dear Alexandra,
If you are reading this Alex, then I am surely dead. Knowing that the
police will contact my only living relative, I made sure to leave this
message for you.
As I write this letter, Pious Augustus is waiting for his chance to
strike me down for what I have done to the Guardian City. I believe I
have slowed Augustus' plans, but not stopped them completely. He will
still try to bring his Ancient into this world. You must continue what
our ancestor Max has started. You must gather the Artifacts and call
forth an Ancient to combat what Augustus brings into this world.
Of the artifacts there are four, but one of these is in the cluthes of
Pious himsdelf. They are:
The Black Heart of Mantorok
The Claw of Chattur'gha
The Sigil of Xel'lotath
The Veil of Ulyaoth
Your skill in the arcane science will not be as strong as Pious', who
has had two millennia to prepare his gate. You will need all the
remaining artifacts to match his power.
It all rests with you my dear. I wish you well in this desperate act.
I wish I had more guidance for you but I am at my wit's end and feel
I am running out of time.
Your loving Grandfather,
Edward

-Soldier's Letter #1 (Peter)
First Letter from Pvt. Reginald Jackson to his love Margaret:
"I was admitted to this hospital on Tuesday. The damage caused to my
legs was slight, but there is no way that I could ever walk normally
again. I hate this place - every day I am reminded that I will never
be able to do the things I love.
The hospital is a very strange place. Converted from an old cathedral,
there is an odd atmosphere around it. Silent but for the words of the
wounded, calling out in the night. There is no doubt it is haunted.
What I find most odd in this place is that you never see anyone
leave during the day. It's not right - no good-byes or farewells.
Just an empty bed when you wake."
-Soldier's Letter #2 (Peter)
Second Letter from Pvt. Reginald Jackson to his love Margaret:
"I've been here for over a week now, and there is no word when I will
be allowed to leave.
Strange things have happened. At night the sounds of the hospital
change - echoes of voices that don't belong to anyone haunt the walls
and corridors.
The restless ghosts perhaps, or sounds of movement, or whispers. I
have seen war firsthand and the sounds at night in this hospital
scare me more than I ever thought possible. What is going on here at
night? Why do I feel so threatened?
My fear are worsened by the talk of the other young soldiers... One
said he had heard cries for help in the middle of the night - cries
that were only answered by snarls of rage, and not compassion. Another
said Lance Corporal Haskill had not been discharged but had gone
missing.
I stare at his empty bed, with a sense of unholy dread, gnawing at
my heart."
-Soldier's Letter #3 (Peter)
Third Letter from Pvt. Reginald Jackson to his love Margaret:
"It's been two weeks since Haskill went missing, and I'm afraid to go
to sleep.
More than once I saw shadows of people moving past my bed, peeking
through the blinds to see a wounded soldier being taken from his
bed, drugged and delirious in the dead of the night, never to be seen
again... As Haskill was, perhaps as I will be...
What happened to them, I don't know... I am afraid to ask what
happened, for I know that I would surely be the next one to be taken
into the darkness."
-Soldier's Orders (Peter)
An official note, on Army regulation stationery. The note reads:
"Pvt. Thompson,
By order of Lt. Hargraves, on behalf of H.R.H. George V, you are
to leave your post of duty, and rally in the street outside
Oublie Cathedral.
Further orders will be presented at the rallying point.
God save the King!"

aroma of Arabian spices is tantalizingly
emanating from it. There is a piece of paper
inside it.

once clean and resplendent, is now dented and
cracked. One end of the staff is merely bare
wood, indicating that something was once
attached to the end.

once clean and resplendent, is now dented and
cracked. It is topped with a gold amulet,

-The Diary of Brother Andrew, Page 1 (Paul)
"I have finally arrived at Amiens, and my pilgrimage to see the Hand
of Jude draws to a close.
I cannot wait to lay eyes upon the sacred relic. My journey here has
been arduous and it shall be good to relax for a while in this
peaceful village.
Amiens is full of good people, strong in their faith and their role
in our world. If the blight of witchcraft is present in this world,
then I doubt it is in Amiens."
-The Diary of Brother Andrew, Page 2 (Paul)
"... I suppose it is understandable that they will not show me the
Hand of Jude on such little notice, but I must confess that the
preparations they make are most unusual.
No acts of consecration, no daily prayer or worship are demonstrated
by this strange order. One wonders if they are holy at all, let alone
being under the auspices of the Grand Inquisition.
Perhaps it is my naivete of our faith. There are many practices
associated with it, and they differ greatly from region to region.
Perhaps Amiens is merely more eccentric than others."
-The Diary of Brother Andrew, Page 3 (Paul)
"... with a shudder my heart turned to ice. I came to the brutal
realization that the entire order were heretics and that I was in
incredible jeopardy!
Who knows how long they had kept their dark secret - masquerading
as custodians of the Hand of Jude, when in fact, they guarded a
damnble relic - the Essence of the unholy Chattur'gha?
And used IT to lure potential victims to their hideous sacrifice!
I felt sick, and despite my faith, I felt intense fear and
hopelessness. I know that I must escape this place before they
suspect my knowledge.
I must warn the world and nitify the real Inquisition of their
presence. Knwing death is just around the corner and fearing every
moment, I commit these words to paper. Augustine will find this book.
I will remove certain pages and hide them, so that all who may follow
might discover the truth before it is too late."
