Part 24

Jump to the West platform and pull the crank to reach the second level. All three elevators will now be at the second level, solving the puzzle.

Watch the cutscene, then use the pillar of ledges to descend to the ground. Exit through the south archway to trigger another cutscene.

You are now the Dark Prince in the Well of Ancestors. Go forward, turn right to the edge of the platform, run along the right wall, and chain-swing along the torch to reach the next platform.

From there, run along the right wall and chain-swing along the torch to reach a beam. Move along the beam to the left, jump, and chain-swing to the suspended chain.

Descend the chain, drop to the beam, pull yourself up, and move forward before the beam falls. Turn right at the small beam and jump to the next platform.

Run along the left wall and chain-swing along the torch to reach the next platform. Head through the door and break the pottery for sand.

Come back out, turn left, and jump to the beams from the platform. Drop from the higher beam to the lower, then to the next platform.

Turn around and run along the right wall, chain-swinging from one torch to the second to reach the next platform. Continue running along the right wall and chain-swing from the torch to get to the next platform.

Jump down to the platform below and enter the door. Kill the enemies inside for sand.

Go back out, turn right, run along the right wall to the next platform. Go forward and drop into the gap ahead. Slide down and drop to the floor, taking out enemies for sand.

Turn around, head toward the edge of the platform, run, jump, and chain-swing along twice to reach the next platform.

Turn left, run along the right wall, chain-swinging on two torches to a beam at the end. Drop down to a beam below, then to a platform.

Run along the left wall and chain-swing along four torches to a new platform. Head forward, jump from the edge, and chain-swing to the other side.

Turn right at the next doorway, dispatch enemies, then turn right and head left along the ledge near the wall. Drop to the platform below, and run along the right wall to reach the next platform.

Head down the ramp and run along the wall to the next platform, then run along another wall to yet another platform.

Turn left to face Illusions. After killing them, step out onto the beam in the center and jump to the gap ahead. Slide down and drop to the floor.

Turn around, make a right, and head through the doorway. Smash the pottery for sand.

Turn left and approach the edge of the next platform from the left side. Wait for the mini-blades to reach their lowest point, then run along the left wall to a ledge. Drop into a hang, shimmy right around the corner, drop to the ledge below, climb up, move left, and jump to the rail.

Shimmy right as far as you can, wait for the mini-blade to reach the left side, then drop down to the next ledge. Move right and climb up the platform.

Turn left to see spinning blades. Wait on the left for the first one to pass, then roll through to clear the set. Destroy the pottery for sand.

Make a right at the next corner. Jump forward and chain-swing to the next platform, then quickly turn right and jump on the ledge above before the platform crumbles.

Shimmy right along the ledge to the end, then jump across to another ledge. Drop down through three more ledges, and move right to get on the next platform.

Go forward to the next set of traps: a vertical spinning blade followed by two horizontal spinning blades. Wait for the first blade to pass and then roll quickly past it and to the middle to dodge the horizontal blades.

Smash the pottery for sand. Observe the next set of traps: two panel traps followed by arrow hazards. Wait for the sound of the arrows and panels, then quickly rush across, run along the left wall, and jump off the shutter to reach a ledge.

Climb up, move right, jump and climb up to the next ledge, move right, jump to the ledge across from you, and move all the way right. Wait for the blade below to pass your half of the hazard, then quickly drop down and roll forward to avoid it.

The next blade on the left has a ledge above it. Wait for it to pass, then run up the wall to grab that ledge. Move right to the end, and use the chain to pull out the stone behind you.

Jump to the stone, turn left, and jump forward to the next ledge. Shimmy all the way right and drop to the platform. Roll past the blades when they pass to complete this section.

Watch the cutscene. You are now armed with The King's Sword.
