Jump
backwards to the ledge with the green Power Plate.

To the ledge
Elika:
Heaven’s Stair...
No one has been
inside this place for ten, maybe twenty generations. Now the Plates are lit once
more.
Prince:
Ready to climb to the stars?
Elika:
How many times have you used that line?
Let’s go.

An observatory...
Elika:
You recognize it?
Prince:
This place isn’t the beginning and the
end of civilization. Well, actually it might be the end of it. Your people cut
yourselves off and then stared at the stars...
?
Elika:
The stars tell us the time, the seasons,
guide us over the deserts and seas...
Prince:
That’s a lot of use when you don’t go
anywhere. You know it’s been proved by scientists that all people who stare at
the stars are crazy?
Elika:
Anyone who hopes for something better is
crazy?
Prince:
You said it, Princess, not me.
This
platform is a junction. You can either go to Reservoir or continue by the green Power Plate to the Fertile
ground. You want to go to the Fertile

The path to Reservoir
Climb
up the wall and get launched from the green Plate to a second Plate.




Jump up and wall run to a second Plate
From
here you are running to a third Plate, and you will have to use LAS to steer and
avoid obstacles.








To the third Plate
Continue
from this Plate to the ledge from where you get access the platform with the
black fire of evil.




Up to the ledge
The
monster you’ll meet next is a really ugly thing – some kind of a balloon
head on two legs. Good combos will send it to hell.




The final stroke
Prince:
I thought these Soldiers were people
Ahriman had Corrupted?
Elika:
They are, But The Alchemist experimented
on them. He supplied Ahriman’s Army with the machines and weapons forged from
Corruption.
Prince:
Next time, try warning me about
destructive war machines “before” we leap into the attack?
Elika:
He won’t have had time to construct much
since his release. We will be spared his worst.
Prince: Maybe you didn’t get it, but hen I said
tell me about the machines...
I meant tell me about the machines.
Elika:
The Alchemist can manipulate Corruption
make it do his bidding. At the height of his power he molded it into machines,
vast rolling Cities that destroyed all before them...
Prince:
Okay, now I’m wishing you hadn’t told me about them.
Climb
up the ledge that leads to a next green Plate.




Climb up the ledge
and wall run up to the green Plate
Wall
run from this Plate to another green Plate and steer with LAS to avoid the
obstacles.





To the next green Plate avoiding obstacles by steering
From
this Plate you can reach a ledge.




From the Plate to a ledge
When
you look inside the room on your left you’ll see a shaft.

Look at an open shaft
When you proceed into this room a cut scene will show how some kind of hydraulic pole elevator is going up while the blue grated metal door is closing off the shaft.








An elevator goes up when you walk inside
Prince:
Are you sure there’s not another way up,
outside the Tower?
Elika:
I can’t see any other way. We’ll have
to reach those mechanisms.
This
room has four green Power Plates that each will bring you up to a ledge. Start
with the left Plate (from the Entrance). You’ll reach a ledge.



From the left Plate to the ledge
Jump to the hanging column and to the shorter hanging column on your left with Elika’s help.

Jump to the first hanging column

Jump with Elika’s help to the shorter column
Roof
run to the ring, press red to flip up and wall run up to a higher ledge.



Roof run and use the ring go up to a higher ledge
Pull
up. A cut scene shows how the room is getting filled up with Corrupted air.

Corrupted air is filling the room
Elika:
That’s Corrupted air, if you breathe it...
Prince:
It’ll be the last breathing you do...
Well, if the only way is up then let’s go up.
Elika:
We have to go down to reach the other
Power Plates. After we’ve gone over there to activate this first mechanism.
Prince:
Let’s just make it fast. I don’t want
to end up with a lung full of Corruption.
Obviously
Elika meant you have to use all four Power Plates and each time go down
to do so. Turn right and wall run to the sliding ring. The sliding of the ring
will cause the first wheel to retract so you can wall run further to the
vertical narrow shaft by pressing red when on the ring.



Wall run to the narrow shaft
Slide
down from the shaft and go from the stairs. Turn left and use the second green
Plate to get up to the platform. Notice that the first Plate is now unlit.

Sliding down

Turn left down the stairs
Elika:
The platform has come down
Prince:
Not all the way, we’ll have to reach all the switches.
Climb
up and jump to the hanging column. Climb up. From now on you have to move fast
because the Corrupted air will gradually raise and eventually you’ll be in a
complete darkness. When that happens you’ll drop down – but Elika will save
you and you must start over.

Climb up the wall

Jump to the column and climb up
Jump
backwards to a narrow ledge and shimmy right.

backwards to the second and shorter column. The camera turns panoramic allowing
you to see a grated wall with two narrow ledges, one above the other.

On the shorter column
Act
fast before you see completely nothing: jump backwards to the first narrow ledge
(a “long jump”: you’ll reach the wall and climb up to the ledge).
Immediately jump up to the higher narrow ledge and jump backwards to a full
ledge.




Get to the ledge before it gets completely dark
Pull
up. You’re back above the Corrupted air. Wall run to the last mechanism
passing the sliding ring. End on your vertical narrow shaft and gripfall down.
The Corruption has gone: the air is clean again.



Wall run to the narrow shaft and gripfall down
Elika:
It’s clearing
Prince:
Then let’s go to the top before
The
Alchemist chokes us off again...

Let’s use that platform to go up
Go into the open elevator. The platform has a crank.
Prince: About the mech... if we don’t keep pushing we’ll be stuck here.

Want to take a break?
Elika: No. I want to get to the top. Now push!
Turn
the crank counter-clockwise twice. Each turn is lifting the platform higher.


Turn the crank counter-clockwise twice
Let off the crank by pressing red again.
Prince:
Where was The Alchemist going?
Elika:
We need to find the next Plate to take us
higher.
Prince:
How do we get to the next floor?
Elika:
Let’s search for a Plate.
Jump
to the hanging column and climb all the way up.


To the hanging column
Jump
backwards to the ledge. Go outside and turn right. You’ll spot a green Plate
on a wooden wall.

Jump to the Fertile Ground with Elika’s help
Be
welcomed by your best friend in this Level... The Alchemist:
I
underestimated you.
Prince:
Yeah, that happens a lot.
Alchemist:
Make things easier, confirm to my low
expectations and give up.
This time this Creature can change into black too. Only an attack from Elika will turn him back to normal.


Only Elika can turn The Alchemist back to normal
Use
combos starting with yellow and red, and keep repeating with blue,
red and yellow. With some luck you can even push him off the edge.


That’ll be another time you
underestimated me
Prince:
How do we get out of here?
Elika:
Through that portcullis. That switch
should raise it.
Prince:
Well, let’s pull that switch and get out
of here
Get
near the blue light beam and press yellow to let Elika become one with
the beam. Then press yellow repeatedly and admire that unique spectacle:




The healing of this Land!
The
Prince approaches Elika:

For every step we take, there’s
always one more
Elika:
And so the present becomes the past. Our
actions now build the foundations for what comes next.
Prince:
Depressing isn’t it?
Get
an Autosave, and also make a manual Savegame.
