Go to the right until you come to a fountain and a new type of enemy, a banshee. You'll learn about interrupting enemies in this fight, which is done by attacking while they are in the middle of casting. Jump onto the fountain and then onto the ledge, eventually reaching a chest with your first Oculi inside, a ROUGH RUBY.
You'll happen upon another darkened area, with a fork. Take the bottom path, watching out for the enemy, and grab the FIREFLY ELIXIR from the coffer. Go back and take the other path to get out the other side, and keep going right to find another block you can push. Bring this to the left to climb onto the ledge, then go left until you can enter a door.
There is a locked gate above that you need to pass through, but there's no way up there. See the glowing spot in the middle? Use Igniculus to illuminate it to bring the platform down, then get on it and use Ignic again to bring you to the top. Push/pull the block onto the elevator, then bring it down and push it all the way to the right.
Jump over the ledge and pull the second block to the right, allowing you to go up and pull the switch to your left. This makes part of the floor go up and down, so drop down and pull the first block onto that rising platform. At the top, push the block onto the button on the floor to keep the gate open, then exit via the door on the right.
As soon as you exit, look to your left and you'll see something blue floating out of reach. Use Igniculus to illuminate this and open it, giving you a ROUGH SAPPHIRE. Go right and pull the lever to open the big gate, allowing you to go inside a cathedral-like area. On the second floor is another illumination puzzle like before, but with colors this time. You can rotate the wheel using a device on the left side. Once you match the third one, you'll be thrown into a boss battle.
| BOSS: Headless Guardians |
|---|
| You are fighting two headless guardians, who can definitely do some damage if you let them. The one in the back should be your first target, since it can increase their agility with Wings of Mercury. Apart from that, they only hit with physical attacks, with the front using Jupiter's Spear and the back tossing its head with Decapitation. |
After winning the battle, watch the cutscene and at the end of it, you will gain the ability to fly. When you regain control, fly to the top of the room and open the one chest with Igniculus to get 2 FIREFLY ELIXERS. There are also coffers on either side of the room up here, granting you a POTENT HEALING TONIC and 2 MAGIC POTIONS. As soon as you leave the room via the top, the next chapter will begin.
