Thanks, Becky!

The Keepers clan knows that to combine the Sacred Rings with the Tetrahedron will grant the holder unlimited power and immortality. Durad wanted to acquire the Sacred Rings and with the help of Gugon instigated a Keepers rebellion using Gugon's power to control men. Arakon acquired the aid of Umang to collect the Sacred Rings and the Tetrahedron of Dragast and Na-Tiexu. Umang traveled the worlds of Ademika, Dragast and Na-Tiexu to collect the artifacts.

Bargul, the leader of the Shadow Legion watches the arrival of Umang to this world. He praises his magician, Gugon in the use of Durad.  He orders his guards to find this Umang and throws the amulet to guide them. Bargul's ultimate plan is to invade the new world of the Keepers.

The last time we saw Umang was when he was being chased at the Island of Unity by the rival clan led by Durad. Unbeknownst to Umang, an amulet was added to his inventory by a thief he released from prison at the Temple at Dragast. Umang goes through the latest gate found by the Clan Leaders. The Sacred Rings must be returned to the Keepers, the only ones who will be able to watch over them.

Umang drops from the sky and lies unconscious on the ground close to a house. Nikifor comes out from the house and approaches the unconscious Umang.

Nikifor's House

Bedroom:    Umang wakes up and meets Nikifor. Nikifor was emphatic that this is his house and that Umang should help do odd jobs. The first one is to find a way to open that big iron door. Nikifor takes a nap.

Umang has the amulet and tetrahedron (Sacred Rings) in inventory. Right click to access the inventory below the screen. At right is the journal that has all the documents seen during gameplay. Check the journal frequently for clues.

Go to the cabinet at the corner and open it. Read the book that has different animals and nature descriptions and their corresponding symbolisms.

Time to check where we are. Exit the bedroom and see a corridor.

Go left, turn left before the double doors and check the door. It is locked. Look at the white symbol above the door. We will check the double doors later.

Turn left, forward, go through the doors and see a balcony and stairs to the first level of the house. Go to the left on the balcony and enter the door on the left.

Study:    Look around Nikifor's library.

Bookcase - Go to the bookcase and see a locked cabinet. Pan right and forward left of the ladder. Click on the scroll. Take the cabinet key. Go back and use the cabinet key on the locked cabinet. Read the paper. Where have we seen these words before? These are the symbolisms of animals and nature seen in the book in the bedroom cabinet.

Go back to the bedroom cabinet and check the book to know which animals have these quotes.

I depend only on myself - elephant.

Decisiveness is more important than eloquence - owl.

It belongs to the grazer instead of the reaper - wheat.

Globe - Go to the globe right of the empty bird cage.

Look close and study the pictures. They are pictures of animals and nature. The deciphered paper in the cabinet gives us 3 of these: elephant, owl and wheat.

Turn the rings of the globe to show one of the deciphered animal-nature seen on the paper.

Arrange from top to bottom:     wheat, ?, owl, and elephant. Turn the second from top row until it opens. The second from top is crocodile.

Take the 4 generator door keys.

Desk - Turn around and look close at the desk.

Diary - Read the Captain's diary. Today we visited the Manula Valley where we found a strange looking portal.  I believe it belonged to the Keepers.  It seems that neither war nor time have had any effect on it. I wonder where it leads to, and if it still works? (That's where we need to go - the keepers! They can take care of the Sacred Rings.) See a sketch of the portal.

I have finally derived a complete set of coordinates from the Manula Valley to the “land of the forgotten.” This is going to be my last journey. The path from Manula S S W W S W N W S. See a topographic map.

Nikifor arrives. Manula is a valley. The house is a huge vehicle.

Roll top cabinet - Click on the roll top cabinet to the above right of the diary. The vehicle needs crystals to get going. The generator directs the power from battery crystal to all mechanical devices on the ship. See the picture of the generator.

Each mechanical device requires a different number of crystals to run. See a picture of a crystal.

The crystal can found in blotted out.

Read all the pages and they will be entered in the journal right of the inventory bar. Study them well because they are clues to puzzles later.

Search for battery crystals and turn on the power to different machines

Security Box - Crystal code stand - Go forward to the door. Turn left and go forward to the stand.

Activate stand - Review the journal right of the inventory bar and study the similar icons in the drawing of the security box - VI II V.

The left panel has arrows that turn the panel to show icons. Use the arrows to show the icons in the drawing.

Crystal codes - When correctly done the button on the right panel is activated.

Click on the buttons to see the number of crystals associated to an icon seen above the stand. Take note that the white symbol associated with one crystal is similar to the symbol above the locked door beside the bedroom.

The places on the graph seen below the crystals are identified during gameplay.

What is activated as seen during gameplay	Door of storage room	Telescope room	Bridge area	Access to secret room.	Transport engine at roof	Access to secret room and self destruct mechanism.

Exit the study and go down the stairs. Go outside, look around and then go back inside.

Generator room:    Go to the door left of the stairs.

Door keys - Insert the keys taken from the globe in the slots below the arrows.

The keys can be placed in any order. Turn the keys to produce the symbols seen below in any order.

The easiest way is to place the left key in inventory on the left keyhole and continue from left to right slots-keys.

If you do this arrangement of keys, click each of the top buttons once to turn each key once. Umang says 'success'.

Enter and go down. Before we check the panel at the other end, turn right and enter the door.

Pump room - Look around.

Table - Go to the shelves left of the door and take the wrench from the table. Look and remember the drawing on the paper on the wall.

Turn around and go down to the pump machine.

Activate the pump machine - Umang will note that there's a lever missing on the left. Insert the wrench on the left.

Following the clue from the drawing on the wall; click the wrench (left to the lowest dot), middle one above the left and the right lever to one above the middle. The pump machine is activated.

Stand - Go to the stand right of the door. Click the third icon (circle with top and bottom half circles) to move the handle to that icon. See a cutscene that shows the yellow circle with similar icon on a panel is now activated. Exit the room.

Engine & Crystals - Go forward and open the panel at end of the room. See that there are 2 crystals (round plugs) already in place.

Open the locked room upstairs - Based on the white symbol above the locked room upstairs, it needs one crystal to be activated.

Click one crystal to light it up and then click on top left white button also to light it up on the wall above the panel.

Nikifor comes down and talks to Umang. Obviously, Nikifor does not know his 'own' house.

Exit this area, go up, out and climb back to the second level.

Storage room:    Now that the white button from the crystal room is activated, enter the locked room beside the bedroom. Look around.

Take the rope right of the door. Take the waterlamp sitting atop the barrel at the corner.

Go to the large cabinet across the room and open the second from top cabinet. Take the oil can and the crystal capsule.

Turn to the window hatch and open it. Pan down and left to the hook and metal pipes. Attach the rope on the pipes and then climb out the window.

Go forward and look around. Look back at the house and it looks more like an insect than a house. Go back to the hanging rope. Pan left and down to pick up a crowbar. Climb up and exit the storage room.

Turn left and enter through the double doors.

Bridge:    Enter one of the 2 side doors on the opposite wall. Look around. See the panel on the right wall that shows the colored icons activated by the 2 stands done at the Engine room. See another stand by the wheel.

Trunk - Go to the other side of the room. Take the crystal on top of the trunk. Open the trunk and take a drawing. It will be placed in the journal.

Cabinet - Pan left of the trunk and see a closed cabinet that has the red sunburst icon on the front.

Go back to the desk and press the button revealed by the removal of the spyglass. See the cabinet at the corner open.

Look close at the opened cabinet and see that it is still inactive since we learn from the security box that activation needs 6 crystals. The picture is seen in the journal. Exit the secret room and the bridge.

Elevator:    Turn to face the alcove across the double doors.

Access the elevator - Pan right and see a handle on the right of the alcove. Pull down the handle and see that the hatch on the ceiling opens a bit but is stuck.

Pan right and exit the door to go outside. Look around. Turn to the door and click to close it.

Pan up and click on the roof or sky. On top of the house, note the target like icon on the left of an engine. Based on the security box crystal code, this needs 5 crystals to activate.

Pan right and see a rock blocking the gear. Use the crowbar on the rock. See Umang remove the rock.

Go back down and go back inside. Pull the handle now and see the elevator go down. Enter the elevator and press the wall button to go up.

Go to right of the elevator. See a stand with the yellow icon. Click and see that it doesn't have power. Remember that this icon needs 3 crystals.

Activate the Telescope room - Go back down to the lower level engine-crystal room. Go to the panel. In inventory, take the crystal capsule and click it on the middle left empty slot. The crystal capsule will automatically have the crystals in it to be placed on the hole. It inserted the crystal taken from the secret room. Click to activate this third crystal so that 3 crystals are now lit. Then click on the yellow button at middle left above the stand. That should power the Telescope room machines. Go back up to telescope room.

Spaceship stand - Look at the stand right of the elevator and see that it is now active. See a picture of a spaceship cut into 4 wedges.

The object of the puzzle is to get the wedges recessed on the side. There are 3 layers of the wedges.

Click on the wedge in correct order until they are all recessed.

Click on: top, bottom, right and then left.

Click on: right, bottom, top and then left (as seen in journal clue).

Click on bottom, right, top and left (as seen in journal clue).

Watch a cutscene of the Shadow Legion riding towards the house.

Umang alerts Nikifor. After the discussions, Umang decides to wait to wait for nightfall to steal crystals from the Shadow Legion.

Steal Crystals

Wake up at night and alone at the bedroom. Exit and see that house is dark and some doors are locked.

Storage room:    Let us see if we can go outside. Storage room is locked.

Go down to the engine crystal room. Go to the panel, click on two crystals to turn it off and push the white button on the wall.

Go back up to the storage room. Click the rope on the metal bar and exit through the window.

Outside:    Go forward twice and you can go right or left. Go left and forward to see the sleepy guards by the fire. If you continue forward, you will get caught. Turn around and go back.

Go forward to the front side of the house. Click on the waterlamp when the path gets too dark. Walk around to the other side of the house as shown by the lit waterlamp. When Umang says to be more careful, place the waterlamp (right click) back in inventory. Save game here.

Guard's tricycles:    Go forward and see 2 tricycles. Go close and click on one of them for a close up a cover-lid and Umang will say it is rusty. Use the oil can on the rusty cover. Use the crystal capsule to take the tricycle's crystal power. Do this to the other tricycle (oil can and crystal capsule) to get another crystal.

Go back to the house by way around the house, using the waterlamp at the correct time. Climb up the rope.

Nikifor says that he closed all the doors and they will continue the plan tomorrow.

Set the destination

Crystal room - Go downstairs to the engine crystal room panel. Place the 2 stolen crystals on the holes using the crystal capsule.

Activate the bridge - Click the crystals to have 4 lit crystals. Then click on the third left bottom button.

Double check the stand by the stairs to see if it is activated to the green wedge.

Go back upstairs and then to the bridge.

Bridge:   

Stand - Go to the left of the steering wheel and see the stand with the colored wedges with icons. Click the first left wedge of the circle to move the handle to the wedge with the icon that needs 4 crystals. See a cutscene of the panel on the right wall.

Steering wheel - Look close at the icons on the steering wheel. This is the destination entry panels. The icons are the codes of the destination. This is the code where the house transport is now.

Open map table - Go down to the floor and go to the table right by the bookcases.

Now that there is power, click on it to show the map frame. See icons used as code to open the map table.

Look at the journal for the clue. Enter the icons on the panel to those seen on the journal.

Find our location in the map - A map is seen. 'I need the exact coordinates'.

Show our location in the map by placing the icons seen on the steering wheel on the right. The first icon will not change or matter at this time. Note the circle moved on the lower part of the map.

 

Find Manula Valley - Manula Valley is the place of the keepers as stated by the Captain's diary - Today we visited the Manula Valley where we found a strange looking portal.  I believe it belonged to the Keepers.

 

Use the lever at top right 3 times until the topography that is seen in the Captain's diary is in the map. Look at top right of the map above. The first icon on the code will change.

Manula Valley destination code - Now that we have our local code and have the Manula Valley in the map, we need the directions to get there and obtain the destination code.

Using the path in the map in the Captain's Diary and the words he wrote - I have finally derived a complete set of coordinates from the Manula Valley to the “land of the forgotten,” The path from Manula S S W W S W N W S.  We can now derive the path from here to Manula Valley. But take note of what the Captain's path is. It is from Manula Valley to this location. So reverse the path seen on the map.

Using the arrows at bottom right, click the top for N, right for E, bottom for S and left for W: click on N E S E N E E N N. Got it! Excellent! Now we have the coordinates!

The circle is now at top right at the Manula Valley area. Take note of the destination icons at right panels.

 

Time to move on

Activate the transport engine - Go down to the crystal room. Click to light up 5 crystals. Press the middle right button. This will activate the engine on the roof.

Bridge - Go back up to the bridge. Go to the steering wheel.

Enter the Manula Valley Destination Code -

Go back to the steering wheel and enter the code we just now derived from the map.

Now that we have entered the Manula destination code and activated the stand on the left, click on the lever on the floor left of the steering wheel.

See the transformation of the house into a walking transport. The guards try to give chase but are hindered by absence of power crystals on their tricycles.

After a while, the transport house gets stuck in a narrow canyon. Umang is not a good driver. The guards will surely follow. It is time for another tactic, block the canyon.

Block the canyon

Pump room - Go down to the pump room. Go to the left of the table and see the crystal that powers the pump. Use the crystal capsule to take the crystal.

Crystal room - Go to the crystal panel and place the 6th crystal using the crystal capsule. Light all 6 crystals. Click on the bottom right red button to activate the self destruct mechanism.

Secret room:    Go to the secret room accessed through the bookcase at the bridge.

Open the self destruct cabinet - If you haven't yet, press the button on the desk now that we have activated it with 6 crystals.

Self destruct time - Go back to the cabinet in the secret room. 'I don't have any choice.'

Based on the clue (taken from the picture in the chest) in the journal, the red band of all 6 tubes should be on the top.

When a tube is clicked, it moves 3 or more tubes including self. Study the pattern and deduce the sequence of tubes clicked to get the red bands on top.

Tube 1 affects tubes 1 2 6. Tube 2 affects tubes 2 3 5. Tube 3 affects tubes 1 3 4. Tube 4 affects tubes 2 4 5. Tube 5 affects tubes 3 5 6. Tube 6 affects tubes 1 3 4 6.

From left to right: click on tubes 2 5 6 3.

RUN!

Manula Valley

Nikifor leaves in disgust. Turn around and look at the destroyed transport house that blocked the canyon. Pan right from the destroyed transport and take the iron bar.

Continue down the canyon path and turn right at the crater. The path to the left is blocked by a fallen tree. Go forward. On the left, see a ferry on the center island. Continue on the path until you reach the ruined building with statues.

Keepers Portal Ruins:

Look at the circles on the ground, the statues and the stand above connected by a pipe to the floor below.

Go back the path, forward 3 times and look left to climb up the stairs. Go the statue at the center. Look at the statue, the stand and the floor below.

Talk to Michael, the supervisor of the Keepers portal.  He has been waiting for Umang, the Chosen One. He tells the story of what happened; of how the Keepers with use of the Sacred Rings and tetrahedron opened different worlds. One of them was the world of the warlike Shadow Legion. Umang must destroy the Shadow Legion. Umang must go to the Keepers Palace, now the lair of the Shadow Legion. The portal must be opened. Michael disappears.

Open the portal - Study the ring control stand. See 3 rings on the left and the clue pattern on the right.

Click on middle and inner rings and see the same happens on the rings below on the ground. Note that the inner ring moves by itself and the middle ring move both middle and outside rings at the same time. This makes it impossible to copy the lines on the right.

Pull back resets the puzzle.

Go down to the rings on the ground. Look down and see a hole on the outer ring. Insert the iron bar on the hole to stop the outer ring from turning. Go back up and work the ring control stand again.

Click the middle ring 5 times and the inner ring 4 times. Watch what happens. The portal's power fizzles out.

Michael appears again. He says to look for another source of energy for the portal - 'ask the sky'. Also Umang would need the Legion's sign. He gives the ferry key. He disappears again.

Ferry:    Go down the stairs and go left back to the ferry. Open the ferry box, insert the ferry key in the box and then turn the wheel. Stand on the platform and click-turn the handle. Go forward and ride the railcar.

The there are 4 buttons with destination icons. The 5th at the base is the button for the crater valley.

Mine in Green world:    Click on the button at bottom right and then pull the central lever.

Exit to see a nice green area. Go forward and talk to the man sitting by a hut. Umang asks about the sign of the Shadow Legion. Climb up the stairs of the hut and go forward. Talk to the sick woman. Exit the hut.

Go down and continue to walk the path. Reach an abandoned mine. At the end is a well and hanging bells. Be sure to ring at least one of the bells.

Go back and talk to the man, Nafal. Learn the story of Fird the Shadow Legion's ex-executioner, Fird's son Rizan and his love affair with Mila, a concubine of Bargul. After being betrayed by Trey, Fird was placed under magical charms by Gugon to behead Rizan. Fird was let go and given his son's ashes. Mina was walled in alive. Sarah, his wife brings food to Fird.

Go up to the hut and talk to Sarah, the sick wife, to learn how to get down the mine to Fird. She needs her headache medicine - Tincture of Lukerii.

Go to the table left of the door. Take the bottle (flask). Exit the hut and go back to the rail car.

Alchemist at the Ice World:    Click on the top left button and then pull the lever. Arrive at an ice world above the clouds. Exit the rail car and go forward until the door.

Gain entrance - Pull the rope on the right of door and see the box on the left comes out.

It seems that it wants a 'donation' before entry is given. Place the amulet (the only item accepted to unlock the door) in the box.

 Click on the door and gain entrance.

Talk to Himus, the alchemist. He finally agrees to help you BUT it will be self-service type of help. 2 4 7 is now the record of Umang's debt. Himus leaves.

Lukerii formula - Go forward and then right to be at the alchemy preparation area.

Look close at the books on the left. Read the formula book, flip the pages and see the formula for Tincture Lukerii.

	Tincture Lukerii is made up of one part Cure Oil and one part of Moon Elixir.

 

Prepare elixir - Now that we know the formula to use, go to the right and look close at the reagent dispenser on the lab bench.

The elements are in tubes on the top. Click to turn the tubes. The tubes are labeled with the icons of the reagents. The middle part of the dispenser has 2 empty measuring tubes that are graded by rings that measures 1/4 of the whole tube. Under the measuring tubes is a cup that can combine the elements mixtures. Below the cup is the place for a container for the finished mixture. Add the elements exactly in the sequence noted in the formula or else it will not work. Measure the elements using one click on the stopcock to dispense 1/4 and 2 clicks on the stopcock for 1/2 to one of the measuring tubes. Use the icons to identify the elements. Use the other measuring tube for the other mixture.

First measure Cure Oil in one tube; measuring the elements in correct order seen in the graphic.

1/4 (one click) Mercury Vine 1/2 (2 clicks) Vinegar Oil 1/4 (one click) Morning Dew
Then open the stopcock to place it first in the cup below.

Then measure Moon Elixir in the other tube following the formula in the same order shown.

1/4 (one click) Blood of Unicorn 1/4 (one click) Sea Salt 1/2 (2 clicks) Moon Water
Click on the stopcock to combine them in the cup.

Place the bottle under the cup. Click the stopcock of the cup to get the mixture. Pick up bottle.

If an error is made, see a cutscene of Umang picking up the bottle and it sparks. If correct, the bottle with Elixir is in inventory.

Exit the building and go back to the railcar.

Mine at a Green world:    Click on the button at bottom right and then pull the lever. Go forward and go up the hut. Give the bottle with elixir to Sarah, the wife. She gives a musical sphere.

Bells puzzle - Go to the abandoned mine. Place the musical sphere in the middle cup below the bells.

Click on the musical sphere to hear the 5 tones needed to call the mine elevator. Click on each bell to find out their tones.

Hint: The way I did this is to click the musical sphere and when the first tone is heard - immediately click on a bell to see if they match. When the first tone is matched, play the sphere to the second tone and click an unmatched bell. Continue until identified. Do this to all the 6 tones made by the musical sphere.

From left to right: click on bell 4 5 4 2 5 1. The musical sphere disappears and the elevator rises.

Go stand on the elevator; watch Umang go down the elevator and Fird's reaction.

Go back to Sarah at the hut to see if she can help. She is furious because it was not the medicine she wants. Ooops.

Go to the table left of the ladder or exit and take the bottle of elixir.

Go back to the rail car.

Enter the door and go out to the same place. Umang says 'strange'. Turn around and enter through the door again. Do this one more time and you will be inside.

Go left and enter the door to meet Reina. Talk to Reina, the fairy three times. She needs the ashes of Fird's son.  She also wants Himus' Book of Alchemy. The Butterfly on glade can help you; it is the key to the book.

After the talk, look around. Take the phosphorus on the book shelf. Also read the spell book to learn how to change the weather to fog, rain or lightning using the mood statues and spells.

Exit the room and go forward. Climb the ladder and be on the roof top. This must be where she does the spell for the change in weather. Look at the mood statue and 3 pans. Go down, go forward and left to the exit door.

Keepers Palace - Shadow Legion's Lair

Portal:    Umang arrives at the Keepers portal. Look around and see a carved face on the cliff.

Way to palace:    Go forward and further down, see that it is not safe. Go back and after passing the second arch, pan right and go around the portal (forward twice). To the right are vines. Climb up and walk the cliff side, over a stone bridge and forward passing a second bridge on the left. Look down and see a guard below.

Find the cave - Cross the stone bridge just passed and go left on the cliff side. The path is blocked by a rockslide. Pan right and see a space between the rocks. Use the spyglass and study the palace. Umang sees the cave Michael told him about.

Guard - Go back and stand behind the statue above the guard. Save game here! Use the crowbar on the base of the statue not the top part. If the top part is pushed using the crowbar, it alerts the guard - game ends. The statue falls on the guard.

Go back, across the 2 bridges and down via the vines close to the portal. Go forward to where the guard is crushed by the statue.

Cave search:    Go forward and pick up the sword on the ground where the guard was before. Go pass the arch and see the palace. Pan left and see a hanging skeleton. Now that you know where the cave is located, you can access the next area.

Go forward (4xs) until the end, pan left and go up.

Entering the Lair:    Go forward and when it gets dark, use the waterlamp. Go forward and you will be walking the ramp on the ceiling above the marching soldiers.

Go right and look down and see a guard by the door. Go right to the wall and enter the hole on the wall.

Go forward. Look through the window on the left and see Bargul on his throne saying to Gugon the sorcerer that time is short in getting to the Keepers world. He inquires about the Keepers' lab. Umang makes a noise and Bargul notices. Umang backs up and falls down the hatch to the dungeon.

Torture room:    Look around at the different torture machines. Note that the guillotine is functional.

Maiden sarcophagus - Go to the iron maiden (without nails) on the back wall.

Tumbler room:    Go down the stairs at far end of the corridor and enter through the door at right. See a hole on the floor.

Tumbler - Pan right and look at the roll up cabinet on the wall.

See that there are 4 tumblers. The end tumblers are movable but the 2 middle ones are not. We need to find a way to move the middle tumblers also.

The elevator rises. Umang goes down and talks to Trey. Trey says that there's no living person here and Umang has to find something (not someone) that will show the way.

Maze:    Save game here. If you go through any entrance, you will be caught and need to go back to a saved game.

Remember what Trey and the paper in the prison cell stated.

Take Mila's amulet from inventory and pan around until it lights up. Use it as a guide to which entrance you need to go through. Do this 4 times.

Trey says that Mila is somewhere nearby.

Use amulet, look around and go close to walls. See that the amulet is active on the right wall. Use crowbar on the wall and see Mila's skeleton.

While in close up, use the amulet on the skeleton. Talk to Mila. She asks how Umang can release her soul from Gugon's curse. She says that Gugon's curse uses a magical orb and the orb is kept behind the door with the spider sign.

Pick up the stone on the bench right of Mila's wall. Exit the room.
