ROYAL PALACE

Sublevel 2
THE CAVERN – LIGHT SEEDS

Prince: You do... eat don’t you? You don’t live on... light?
Elika: I’m flesh and blood. The Light Seeds, I just know I need them. They make me feel... stronger.
Prince: Where do those Light Seeds come from?
Elika: From Ormazd, the God of Light. I’ve not seem them before, but I think they’re linked to the Magic I have.
Prince: Er, how do we get off this?
Elika: We can climb up those rings over there.

Walk around the Fertile Ground and notice two Light Seeds each by one of both protruding narrow beams. Take all four Light Seeds [LS81-84].

The protruding beam in front of a wall with a ring

Jump to the column and climb up [LS85].

Climb up the column

Jump backwards to the wall [LS86] and run up to the ring from where you reach the ledge.

Jump backwards to the ring

Climb up to the ledge

Pull up and look up to a wall with a Light Seed between two rings. Climb up [LS87] to the upper ledge.

Climb up to the upper ledge

Pull up and look on the Map. This is the Tunnel that runs to The Cauldron (The Vale). Since both Lands are healed so is this Tunnel. Go pick up all the Light Seeds in there and then return here.

You’re entering the Tunnel to The Cauldron

Your position on the Map

Jump to the hanging column with Elika’s help.

To the column

Jump backwards [LS88] wall running to a narrow ledge on your right.

Jump backwards

You will start a wall run to your right

End up hanging from a narrow ledge

Shimmy right, gripfall from the vertical narrow shaft and shimmy right to LS89.

Grab LS89 from the lower narrow ledge

Shimmy right and wall run to the ledge on your right (jump off the wall).

Wall run to the ledge

Turn around and notice a Light Seed on the wooden structure on the opposite ledge. Jump with Elika’s help to the column and jump backwards to the ledge. Climb up and grab LS90.
[NOTE: you can also pick up the Light Seed on your return]

Go for LS90 first

Return via the column to the previous ledge and continue jumping to the next hanging column. Climb near the top (not touching the roof).

Climb near the top of the next column

Jump backwards to the wall with the Light Seed and press LAS right when gripfalling so you will cross [LS91]. You’ll drop down but Elika will save you.

How to reach LS91

Jump to the next hanging column and turn towards the ledge with the Light Seed. Jump backwards and grab LS92.

Go for LS92

Have a look of how to reach the next Light Seed. You’ve been here before but in the opposite sense.

Figure out your next moves

Landing on the ledge with LS93

Look on the map: you’ve reached the junction with Temple and The Cauldron. The part of the Tunnel to The Cauldron has already been cleared from Light Seeds, so this is the point of return.

This is the end point for collecting Light Seeds in the Tunnel

Return to the Cavern. You know this way by heart now. Enjoy the view from the tower to the beautiful lush Land with an abundance of Light Seeds.

Back on top of the tower

Gripfall down to the lower ledge past the two rings and look down right to a still lower ledge with two Light Seeds on it.

The second lower ledge

Gripfall down and collect LS94-95. Turn away from the wall and notice a slope leading to the Fertile Ground.

A slope leading to the Fertile Ground

Jump to the slope with Elika’s help, slide down and at the end of your ride jump to the Fertile Ground.

Reaching the Fertile ground again

Now go to the opposite protruding beam.

On the edge of the protruding beam

Jump to the column and climb a bit higher so you are even with the Light Seed on the wall behind you.

Climb up to the height of the Light Seed on the wall

Jump backwards [LS96] and when you touch the wall immediately press green to return to the column [LS97].

Jump backwards

Return to the column

Climb all the way up and jump backwards to the left ledge with Elika’s help where you find LS98. Alas... this is a sloping ledge and you’ll drop down unless you were prepared. Nothing to worry, Elika will bring you back to the Fertile Ground.

It is a slope!

Climb the column again to the top and this time jump backwards to the higher ledge (again with Elika’s help).

To the highest ledge

Pull up and take LS99. Look up and climb to the top of the tower past two rings with a Light Seed [LS100] in between.

Climb up to the tower

Pull up and turn around. You can see more Light Seeds and a Vale yellow Power Plate on the opposite wall, meaning you will have to return here later on with the Wings of Ormazd to get al the 45 Light Seeds (look it up on the Map).

More Light Seeds on this side

You’ll need the Wings of Ormazd

Turn around and look at a Tunnel full of Light Seeds. According to the Map again this is the Tunnel leading to the City of Light – City Gate. This is the last of the four initial unlocked Lands you have to visit on foot.

The Tunnel leading to City Gate

Set your new destination to this Land.

Set your path to City Gate

Let’s collect the Light Seeds found here until the junction with the Temple. This part of the Tunnel is now also healed.
Jump to the first column [LS101] and lower down to jump to the second with Elika’s help.

Jump to the first column

Reach the second column with Elika’s help

Jump backwards to the Light Seed [LS102] and when touching the wall you will climb up and automatically return to the column.

Jump backwards and return to the column

Climb down until you see a ledge with a Light Seed. Jump backwards and claim LS103.

Climb down

Jump backwards

On this ledge: wall run left to the opposite ledge past two rings picking up LS104 (jump off the wall to the ledge).

Wall run to the opposite ledge

Wall run on the right wall and jump off to the hanging column.

Reach the hanging column

Jump backwards [LS105] and wall run to the ledge (jump off the wall).

Wall run to the ledge

The next move is easy: pass two columns to the next ledge with the Light Seed.

By now you can do this on your head

On the opposite ledge add LS106 to your collection.

Collect LS106

Jump to the next column and slide all the way down to the lower ledge. Jump to the opposite ledge and then backwards to the large room.

Reach the large room

This is the junction as you can see on the Map. Left is the way to the City Gate and right goes to the Temple.

You’re at the junction on the Map

Have Elika confirm this with her Light Flair.

The Light Flair goes left

Continue now to Level 6: City of Light – City Gate

Returning from The Vale after the Healing of Ruined Citadel

You have now completely healed Ruined Citadel and have returned by teleporting from the Gazebo Platform with 334/340 Light Seeds.
Follow a short cut from the Fertile Ground by skipping the round trip at the start of this Sublevel and going straight to this protruding beam:

Take a short cut

Climb to the top of the column and follow to the ledge from where you saw the vale Power Plate.

The vale Power Plate is activated and yellow now

Jump to the column and climb up. Roof run to LS335 and drop down to the ledge again.

Jump to the column and climb up

Roof run to the first Light Seed

Drop down to the ledge

Jump, climb up the column again and roof run past the first ring to the second ring [LS336]. Continue roof running to the second hanging column.

Past the first ring

Past the second ring [LS336]

To the second column

Climb down and jump backwards from pole to pole to a ledge.

From the column to the ledge

Should you use the Plate for a round flight passing a number of more Plates you would end up with more than the 340 Light Seeds you need at the moment. So reserve the Plate for later.
Jump to the Column on the left side of the yellow Power Plate and climb up to LS337.

Climb up the column to LS337

Jump from the other columns to a ledge with a closed Gate. Jump between both columns with Elika’s help.

Jump from column to column to reach the ledge

Take LS338-339 on the ledge.

Collect both Light Seeds

Return by the columns to the ledge with the yellow Plate and look right to spot a Light Seed on a wall that you can also reach by jumping between two columns.

Walk on the metal grated protruding narrow beam

Jump to the first column

Use Elika’s help to jump to the second column

Hanging on the second column

Jump backwards to the wall and you’ll wall run to LS340. Jump off the wall to the third column.

Jump backwards to the wall

Wall run and grab LS340

Jump to the third column

When hanging on the column a message will appear on top of your screen:
Elika has now enough Light Seeds to activate a Power at the Temple.

You’ve got the 340 Lights Seeds now

You also have to open the map and set your destination to Temple . Open the Map and look at the specs of your current position. You’ve gathered 23/45 Light Seeds in this Sublevel.

Current specifications on the Map

Before teleporting to Temple you have to consider which of both remaining Powers are most convenient at this time. Therefore compare the achievements you will get with each.
The Hand of Ormazd unlocks two Lands each at Royal Palace and City of Light.
Therefore Royal Palace is then completely accessible.

Hand of Ormazd

The Breath of Ormazd unlocks two Lands each at The Vale and City of Light.
Therefore The Vale is then completely accessible because you also need this Power to complete the Light Seed collection in The Cauldron.

Breath of Ormazd

It seems more logical finishing The Vale first because initially we were going from left to right.
So this walkthrough will continue with Breath of Ormazd.

Set your new destination to Temple.

Temple has been set as your new destination

Press yellow to teleport to Temple and continue reading the Walkthrough at Level 7: Elika’s Powers, Sublevel 3: Breath of Ormazd.

Returning to this Sublevel after the healing of The Vale.

You have returned from The Vale with Hand of Ormazd and have cleaned Level 3 and 4 from Light Seeds. Since you don’t need Light Seeds anymore, things will get easier from here on. You must now set your new destination: Royal Gardens, and let Elika show you the way with her Light Flares.

Set your new destination to Royal Gardens

Elika shows the path

Jump from one of the protruding narrow beams of the Fertile Ground to the column and climb up. Jump backwards to the wall, wall run up past a ring (press red) to a small ledge.
Wall run up past two rings and pull up to a platform. Go right here. Jump past two horizontal poles and two hanging columns to a platform with a yellow Power Plate.

The platform with the yellow Plate

Don’t use the Plate but keep right and walk to the end of a protruding narrow grated beam.

Continue right to the narrow beam

Jump from the beam to the two columns (with Elika’s help) and jump backwards for a wall run where you jump off to a column. Jump with Elika’s help to a second column.

The second column

Jump backwards with Elika’s help and move up by two rings to the higher ledge. From here you see the platform bordering with Royal Gardens , where the Corruption begins. The black flame of evil predicts a battle with a Soldier of Ahriman.

The border platform

Jump to the platform and send the balloon head back to Ahriman with some combos.

Send him back to Ahriman
