Go all the way to the east of this chamber to find a guard at the power generator. Defeat him, then push the nearby lever down. Since you’re here: Don’t forget to take a photograph of Khetkawes Mural on the wall.

Head back to the elevator and follow the blue cable. Look for a staircase leading up, where guards are working on the water pump. You can pull the lever to electrocute them. Also, look for a Medicine Bottle on one of the tables for the “A Remedy for All” Discoveries Quest.

Swing across the flooded chamber. Stop! There is an Ancient Artifact down below for the “Riddles of the Ancients” Discoveries Quest.

From where you swang over the flooded area, follow the platform to the right, where you can crawl into the next room. The last switch is up on the wooden tower, where one of the guards patrols. Then you can finally go back to the center of the area to pull the switch of the yellow generator to turn on the power.

Wait for the elevator to arrive, board it, and hit the “-1” button. The lowest of the three. At the bottom, enter the Tomb of the Queen Mother.

At the front of the room is a Mural that needs three round glyphs to open.

Fish Glyph

The Fish Glyph is to the right of the room, just when you enter. Put it into the bottom slot.

It all began in the ’80s when I was just 7 years old. Starting with basic arcade games, I soon delved into titles like Loom and Monkey Island by Lucasarts. Throughout the years, as I indulged in more and more games, I consistently sought clear guides to swiftly navigate my gameplay. Now, it’s my turn to contribute back to the community.
