Wall run left and jump off
Jump
to the grated protruding ledge of the next ledge. This is the junction like seen
on the Map: the left way is leading to The Cauldron and the right way to The
Temple. Ask confirmation from Elika’s flair: you’ll have to follow left.

Turn left here
You
are entering The Cauldron. A conversation with Elika starts.
Elika: The
Fertile Ground is up on that plateau. We can use the vines to get up there and
then make our way across.
Prince: Make our way across to what?

Let’s find out
Prince:
What are all these...
pipes and...
?
Elika: When Ahriman took the City from
the Ahura, the Alchemist conducted his experiments here. He used prisoners to
build these things and as subject for his...

...experiments
Prince:
Scary guy this Alchemist then?
Elika: He can make the Corruption act
for him, he shapes it, makes it become what he wishes.
Prince: There was a potter I knew like
that, the things she could do with her hands...
[NOTE:
Did Harry turn into a woman now?].
Prince: These “experiments”...
?
Elika: They were for science, it means...
Prince:
Polymaths, Alchemists, Astronomers.
Colorful
things that go bang and lots of numbers. See, even I read a book once.
Science and Alchemy, Alchemy and Science...
interesting subjects...
Elika:
We didn’t turn lead to gold, sorry.
Make a Savegame here: it is a Checkpoint for The Cauldron.
Turn
around and jump up to the vines over the gap. Climb to the ledge.

Jump up to the vines

Climb to the ledge
A
new conversation starts while the camera is moving away showing how the acid
water’s level is rising.
Elika:
It’s the alchemist.
Prince:
I think we jut lost our way out of here.
Elika:
If we can’t keep above the Corruption,
we’ll lose more than that!
Prince: The Corruption better not be
rising like this everywhere or we’re in even deeper trouble!
Not exactly polite, he hardly knows us and he’s trying to kill us.
Elika: We’d better get higher.
Walk
over the narrow beam bending right to another wooden ledge. Jump on to the slide
slope and at the end of your slide jump to the grated ledge.

On the higher ledge
Elika:

down and at the end of your slide jump up to the higher ledge.

Run to the grated section on the left of the ledge, jump to the opposite ledge and on to a next ledge. Turn right and jump to the ledge by the wall with Elika’s help.

You’ll need Elika’s help for this jump
Jump
up to a narrow beam protruding from the wall. Jump to the ledge on your left.

On the narrow beam
There
is one of your other slopes bending to the left this time. Jump, slide and jump
to the wall, automatically doing a wall run and jumping to the large platform.

Jump to the slope

Slide down

Jump and wall run

Jumping off to the large platform
Look
up. This is an open area.

An open area
Look
left to spot a reddish Creature lurking on a balcony in the left corner.
Elika:
We need to reach him, to stop him.

Hey! Step away from there

The Creature on the balcony shifts shape
It
reshapes under the beam and a battle will start. This is the Alchemist!


The Alchemist resurrects under the light beam
The
best combo to use here is a couple of jumps until you are near and press green,
yellow, blue or any other combo starting with green or yellow.
Also green, blue, blue does a good job, just like
deflecting and red, blue.
Anyway, the Alchemist is easier to defeat than the Hunter. However he also has
the ability to increase his Health under the blue light beam. You will defeat
him quite fast though.



The battle with the Alchemist
Prince:
Now that should teach you something.
Elika:
Be alert, he might return.
Prince:
Go work your magic.
Press
yellow and watch Elika stepping under the light beam.

Tap yellow repeatedly
Watch
how the Corrupted Ground gets Fertile.



The Fertile Ground is healed
Then
Elika has weakened again.

The Corruption has gone...
...it
looks like we have a way out of here.
This
is an Autosave point. However you may save the Game as well. If you haven’t
got enough slots overwrite an older Savegame.
