Jump to the opposite pole and with Elika’s help to the second and third pole on to the Fertile Ground.


From three poles to the Fertile Ground

 

You should Save your Game here to keep all of your achievements.
Use the Power Plate to launch to another Plate and down to the platform. Return to the third column on your right where you found LS177 and went off to the Temple for claiming your second Power. You should continue looking for more Light Seeds from this point.


Continue from the spot where you left to the Temple

 

Jump to the fourth column.


To the 4th column

 

Jump with Elika’s help to the protruding beam from the green ledge.


To the green ledge

 

Walk to the opposite protruding beam and jump to the pole [LS181].


From the protruding beam’s end to the pole

 

Then jump to the hanging column with Elika’s help [LS182], and turn your back towards the two Light Seeds. Lower down to the same height as the protruding beam.


Jump from the pole to the column

A Soldier of Ahriman will awake when you land there. Finish him off with Elika’s help.


Fight until your fatal stab throws the Soldier overboard

 

The other side of the platform looks down upon Corruption. There is a Tunnel to another Land.


The other side is merely Corruption

 

Open the Map and notice the following:

-         you have collected 40/45 Lights Seeds in this Sublevel for now. The other 5 will be obtained when you return with the Breath of Ormazd.

-         You have gathered a total of 186/340 Light Seeds. There are still 154 Seeds required for your next Power (fortunately they did not increase the price...)

-         All of the Lands in Ruined Citadel are unlocked.

Save your Game here.


The Map at this point

 

Hence, the next logical step is now to continue to one of these Lands. You have found the two platforms that give access to the Tunnels. Since you are standing on one of them now it would be most appropriate to follow that direction.
Highlight Martyr’s Tower with your circular cursor and set as a destination.


Set Martyr’s Tower as your next destination

 

Let Elika throw a light Flare and follow the direction.


Elika’s Flare shows the way to go

 

Continue to the NEXT SUBLEVEL:
   
                                                     Martyr’s Tower.

You’ve returned here to the Fertile Ground from Level 7: Elika’s Powers, Sublevel 3: Breath of Ormazd.


Back at the Fertile Ground of The Sun Temple

 

Elika: When you were out traveling, what’s the most incredible thing you saw?
Prince: I don’t know, lots of things.
Elika: Tell me one.
Prince: What do you want to hear?
Elika: Something that took your breath away.
Prince: Mountain ice. It shines like diamonds. I’ve seen walls of it as tall as buildings, deep blue, and blinding white. If you touch it, it burns. It’s cold, but it turns in fire in your hand for just a moment. Then it’s gone. Diamonds to water... Your turn. Tell me something about you.
Elika: Tell you what?
Prince: Oh I don’t know... How about, who was your last boyfriend?
Elika: Never had one.
Prince: Never?
Elika: Never.
Prince: If you’ve never had a boyfriend...
Elika: I’m very well read.
Prince: There are lots of things best experienced in person.
Elika: Your turn to confess. Tell me about your family.
Prince: They were killed, my family. They died.
Elika: I’m sorry.
Prince: It was a long time ago.
Elika: What happened?
Prince: A war. Someone else’s war.
Elika: Were you young, when you lost your parents?
Prince: Old enough to understand it was time to run away. My uncle took me, my parents stayed, to protect the City. They’d collect me once I was safe. They never collected me.
Elika: That must have been difficult.
Prince: People live, people die. They chose to die for someone else’s cause.
Elika: Your parents died with honor. To protect other people.
Prince: They died. Does the rest of it matter? You make your own path. I’m not going to let Ahriman kill me, or you.
Elika: We each have a role to play.
Prince: Tell that to Ormazd, where’s he?


We can’t absolve our –

 

Prince: Aw, don’t give me things someone’s taught you to say. Is there anything you’ve learned yourself?
Elika: That people aren’t always what they seem.
Prince: You got that right. You can’t trust anyone.
Elika: You can, if you know them.
Prince: Does that include your Father?
Elika: My Father has played his part, now we play ours. There are things beyond us. There must be things that have happened in your life that you couldn’t change.
Prince: Well, the sky, or the sea, but you can always change things that have to do with you.
Elika: You can change being here?
Prince: We are. A God wants to escape and we’re changing that. You can change anything. If life is balanced how come I keep getting the end of it that’s been chewed up, spat out and sat on by a Camel?
Elika: You rob Tombs for a living.
Prince: Sometimes.
Elika: There’s your answer.
Prince: You think bad things only happen to bad people? Elika, you’re the most dedicated person I’ve ever met and look where that got you.

In Part 1 is explained where you can find the closest green Power Plate. You have to catapult first to the lower Platform. Use the red Power Plate and the next one. Take the path on the right of the open gate and make a few jumps.
