Level 2

The Palace of Babylon

The Throne Room

 

Walk around until you see the Icon to switch to Landscape View and notice an Archer on a higher ledge. Jump to one of the four ledges (it is the one to the right of the Fountain that you’re facing when loading the game) behind some kind of a Bicorn (a Unicorn with 2 horns) statue above which you see a Dagger plaque in the wall.


Jump to this ledge

 

The Prince will mumble something about the past with the Maharaja and The Powers of the Sands of Time. Run up to the wall and stab your Dagger into the plaque.


From this position wall run to the ledge on your right

 

You’ll see the Archer walking to and from the balcony. Wall run to the shutter and press [B2] to jump to the ledge. Kill the Archer. Wall run to the next ledge and switch to Landscape View. Notice a higher ledge, a shutter and a Dagger plaque on the opposite square column.


Overlook the Scenery

 

Wall run to the shutter and press [B1] to jump over to a narrow ledge on the square pillar. Jump up to the plaque and use your Dagger to position.


Notice a beam behind you


Jump backward to the beam

 

Shimmy to the right and pull up by the short beam sticking out. From there jump between two narrow walls and drop down. You may try a Speed Kill on the Archer but it probably won’t work, so finish him off in the classical way: jumping around, avoiding his arrows, make wall jumps and kill the bastard. Wall run up to a narrow ledge and move to your right around the corner.


On the narrow ledge around the corner


Jump up to the Dagger plaque.

 

Now wall run to your right and jump to the narrow ledge on the square column. Turn around the column and jump to the pillar. Turn around with your back to the balcony.


Act fast, because the Archer on the balcony will start shooting as soon as you’re in sight

 

Once on the balcony with the Throne kill the Archer. Walk down the stairs and fight two Guards on the lower balcony. Throw your 2nd Sword at one of them first. Your best shot here is run and jump over them while striking. Take a new 2nd Sword.

Facing the stairs you can go left or right. Go right where you'll find an entrance. Go inside and a horrible cut scene will start.

NOTE: Follow this cut scene very carefully and watch every detail as is it of great importance to understand the story from here on! So I'm describing it in full details.

The cut scene opens with Kaileena who is like crucified on some kind of vertical Altar under a Gazebo with the old Vizier standing in front of her. The Terrace is very heavily guarded by the Vizier's soldiers.

The female Narrator says: This is how it happened... This is how I died.

When the Prince sees this scene he runs over a bridge to the stairs leading up to the Terrace where he tumbles over a lance trap by a Guard and loses his Dagger that is catapulted towards the Altar. The Prince is captured by a female Ninja with a chain whip that curls around his left arm holding it in a grip, and is pushed to the floor against a wall by the other Guards.


The Prince is chained and trapped

 

Female Ninja: What have we here? The Vizier picks up the Prince’s Dagger and slowly turns towards him:


(very Sarcastic) Aah... You must be the Prince of Persia? Come home at last?


Too late I’m afraid. I believe I have something... of yours.

 

Then he stabs the Dagger into Kaileena’s chest who dies and turns into a Spirit.


The cruel Vizier kills Kaileena with the Prince’s Dagger


Kaileena leaves her dead body as a Spirit

 

When she leaves her body a ring of fire spreads out from her ascending Spirit, pushing the Vizier aside and burning the Guards and the Ninja. The fire is transmitted through the chain and goes up all the way to the Prince’s arm and shoulder. The chain breaks off and the Prince tries to loose the grip of the leftover spiral in vain. He is released but cursed with a lockjaw around his arm where the fire penetrates deep inside forming a pattern.


A lockjaw of evil fire

 

Immediately after, the Vizier stands on the Altar and whilst holding the Prince’s bloody Dagger high up above his head shouts:


A Promise of Power fulfilled!! I will be immortal!!!

 

Then he stabs himself into the chest and all hell breaks loose.


The Vizier kills himself... to become immortal!

 

The Vizier then undergoes a horrible transfiguration. Out of his back an enormous golden blob is emerging turning into wings and a helmet which he is now embedded in as a young man.


The Vizier is transforming

 

He flies away leaving the Dagger on the floor. The Prince runs to the Dagger but the earth is trembling, the floor is crumbling and the Dagger disappears into a bottomless pit followed by the Prince. During his fall the Prince can reach the Dagger and grab it.  

You have now gained The Recall power, and can rewind in time for about 10 seconds at the cost of one Sand Tank (press and hold [B7]). Now you’ll be standing on a Palace balcony overlooking the City of Babylon. Father, what have I done... wherever you are.


Babylon by night... but in war!

 

Enter inside and on your right smash a chair. It seems like the whole Palace is trembling and shaking. The Palace is falling! Run for your life! Run around two corners where the floors will collapse behind your back. Run up to a wall switch that will open a timed door.


This switch will open a timed door behind your back

 

Quickly pass through that door. Immediately do a wall run because the walkway will drop.


Make a wall run until the end

 

Turn around the corner of the collapsing walkway and run up the wall to a Dagger plaque.


Run up the wall at this point...


...and reach a Dagger plaque

 

Now make a wall run to your left and stab the Dagger into the next plaque.


To the next plaque

 

Wall run to the ledge on your left. Once on the ledge go to Landscape View and notice a red curtain hanging there.


There is a balcony below the curtain


Wall run to the curtain and slide down to the balcony

 

Quickly run to the Save Fountain because the Balcony is collapsing too.


Drink and save your Game
