The Odyssey

Uncover the hidden treasure in Assassin's Creed Origins' 'The Odyssey' Papyrus Puzzle. Follow our guide to solve the riddle and claim your reward!

Alright, so you've wrapped up a few quests and are looking for a little something extra, right? Well, there's a neat little Papyrus Puzzle called "The Stone Gaze" that's just waiting for you to solve. It's hidden away in Mareotis Lake, and I'll help you snag that treasure.

The riddle itself goes like this: "In the south section of Mareotis Lake there is an island full of ruins. A man stares at me all day, it’s quite a bother, so I’m hiding behind a column that blocks his site."

First off, you'll want to head to the island in the southern part of Mareotis Lake. You know the one – it's got that fast travel point and a "Lost Crypt" marked on it. Once you're there, climb up onto the ruins and make your way to the southern end. You're looking for a statue of a seated Pharaoh. This guy is staring south, and he's the "man" in the riddle. Now, just south of this statue, you'll spot a broken pillar. Hop down and get to the southern side of that pillar. The treasure is buried right there on the ground. Easy peasy!
