Level

The
Tower of Babel
The Terrace – Part 2
The
third fight with the Vizier
You
will now have to reach the Vizier from the floor of the Terrace via a chaotic
staircase
formed by steadily hanging debris particles - some with horizontal poles
sticking out. But
with this “staircase” you’ll have to jump from one floating debris ledge
to another.
There
are two kinds of rubble ledges: full and narrow. On a narrow ledge you have to
balance and jump sideward. Beside jumps you may also have to do a number of wall
runs and pole swings. A swing/jump from a pole goes always in front of you.
There
are two ways you can climb up: a long one (which probably was intended by
the designers of the Game), and a smart short cut. When doing your ascent
you may constantly be hit by the Energy Balls of the Vizier. They take away part
of your Stamina, and if you’re hit while hanging from a ledge or a pole you
will drop down dead and will have to rewind at the cost of a Sand Tank.
There
is no use in slow motion because as soon as you’re hit by an Energy Ball the
slow motion Spell will cease. So don’t waste any Sand Tank on that. The whole
ascent will be explained by counting the debris particles for a perfect
orientation. Follow exactly the description and you’ll be facing the Vizier in
no time. Run around the empty Terrace looking for the lowest full ledge which is
near a double column. It is quite a narrow U-shaped piece of rubble, but
nevertheless it is a full debris ledge.
The first ledge in front of the double column
Wall
run up the double column and jump backward to ledge # 1 from where you can
immediately jump forward to a higher ledge # 2. Turn left to the pole. Jump to
the pole and hang on it facing the ledge on the opposite wall.
On ledge # 2
Turn left to the pole
Jump
to the pole.
Hanging on the pole facing the ledge on the wall
Now this point determines your choice between the long ascent and the short cut. If you swing/jump to the ledge you’ll have to do two horizontal wall runs and your way to the meeting point for both ascents will be longer and more difficult. The chance that you will die will be greater and remember: you’ll have to start all over form the only Checkpoint in Part 1. So we’ll take the short cut. Turn around hanging on the pole and change your Camera View by pressing [B8].
Turn around
Quickly
shimmy to the right end of the pole and swing/jump to a higher flat ledge (# 3).
Turn left.
On ledge # 3
Turn left
In front of you there is a narrow vertical ledge (# 4). Jump to it.

Jump
sideward to the next flat ledge (# 8), pull up and turn right on this ledge.
Standing on ledge # 8
Turn right
Now ledge # 8 is the meeting point between the two ascents: the long one and the short cut that we took. Jump to the pole in front of you. Swing/jump to the ledge in front of you (# 9). Pull up and prepare for a vertical wall run up and a jump backward to the vertical narrow ledge you see on the left (# 10). Side jump to the next narrow ledge (# 11).
Hanging on the pole

Balancing on ledge # 11
From
ledge # 11 you will see the Vizier hanging in the air in front of you. Walk to
the end of the ledge and jump towards him.
Jump towards the Vizier
The
Prince will hang in mid-air in front of the Vizier with a drawn Dagger. A cut
scene will now start showing both enemies facing one an another where the Camera will make a full angle
of 360 degrees. Then suddenly the Prince’s Dagger will flash!
When the circle is complete the Dagger will flash
Now
perform your 9th Speed Kill! The Prince will jump to the Vizier’s
chest and stab his Dagger into his throat.
The 9th speed kill
This
fatal Speed Kill will make the Vizier drop down to the Terrace with the Prince
in his trail.
The Vizier and the Prince are dropping down
Both
are ending up on the Tower’s Terrace.
Meetings
on the high Terrace
The
Prince will stand up and a long cut scene will start.
With the Vizier slain Babylon is set free at last!
All
people come out on the streets celebrating the courageous victory of the Prince
of Persia over the malicious Vizier. Their massive jubilant cry for freedom can
be heard from the highest top of the Tower of Babel! Finally Babylon
is delivered from the delirious Tyrant and his gang of ruthless killer Demons!
The
Spirit of Kaileena (who was murdered by the Vizier before he committed suicide
with the same Prince’s Dagger to obtain “immortality”) appears on the
scene: This world was not meant for me. But there are others and I will find my
place, just as you have found yours. The Prince lays his Dagger into the
hands of Kaileena – the cursed Dagger that once took her life.
The Prince lays his Dagger into the hands of Kaileena
Kaileena now frees the Prince’s left arm from the fire chain lockjaw that turned him into the Sand Wraith at random moments. The lockjaw falls on the ground and the Prince’s arm is finally cured.
Kaileena’s Spirit frees the Prince’s arm from the lockjaw
Kaileena:
Leave me now,
Prince. Your journey is at the end.
Prince: Kaileena?
Kaileena !!!
Now
we understand that the female narrator all the way long has been Kaileena’s Spirit
who was telling us the story of The Two Thrones!
Kaileena
vanishes leaving a golden Crown lying on the floor.
The Crown of the Throne of Babylon
The
Prince wants to pick up the Crown but someone steps on the Crown preventing the
Prince from claiming it. It is the Sand
Wraith who has appeared from the lockjaw as a separate person now claiming
the Throne of Babylon too.
The Prince wants to pick up the Crown
The Sand wraith is claiming the Throne
Sand
Wraith: All
that is yours is rightfully mine! And MINE it will be!
