As you triumph over Death himself, the mystical energies unleashed from his demise fling you across the world to the continent of Thysis. This is the Egyptian hub that many people need help on. The new monster (the mummy) isn't really that difficult to defeat, seeming sluggish (hrmmm...perhaps a bad choice of words for this game...) after the lynthrocopes of Mazaera. There are plenty of imps, scorpions, spiders, archers, golems, and hydras, but the fighting action isn't as hard, in my opinion, as the 2nd hub. The real fun (and sometimes the real frustration) comes from this hub's puzzles. They are, in a word, challenging. The puzzles do, however, fit the motif of the hub, and are the most creative in the game. This represents the game's best work in the puzzle department.

Start the hub in the Temple of Horus. Go up the stairs and through the door with the scarab on it. Read the signs on the wall. Go left and follow the hall, up a ramp and through a door. Come to a small square with 4 columns, a big statue and a golem. |

Go left, follow the hall around until you come to a balcony overlooking a stone obelisk. Hop down (or take ramps to left or right) and go down the passage under the balcony. You will come to a small pyramid with a door in the center. Hit the ankh button the right wall by jumping up. This will open the door in the pyramid. Inside the pyramid, avoid the cobra's fireballs and push on the wall to the right. Get the Eye of Horus. Hit the button to shut off the cobra and open a door across the outside room. |

Enter the room and go down the steep slope on the left. Follow the hall to an area with a red carpeted bridge spanning a chasm and leading to a locked door. Remember this location. Look down and to the left while standing on the ledge. Drop down to that platform and break the cracked wall. Follow the passage to a room with a body and a table. Jump up and get the Key of Anubus. Also note the message on the wall: "Summer Solstice falls in the constellation of the Hippopotamus". Go back to the ledge in the chasm under the locked door. Fall down, find the room with the scorpions, and go through the blue teleporter. |

Go back down the steep slope to the bridge over the chasm. Unlock the door across the bridge. Enter the Chamber of the Sun and note the message on the wall: "Prophecy of Set: When Ra [the sun god] rides his chariot highest in the heavens at the Palace of the Pharaoh shall the Staff of Nefertum be set free from this Chamber of the Sun". Enter the blue teleporter. Turn right and jump down. Turn left & notice a new passageway has opened. Follow it to a room with a Tome of Power, a barred door on the left, and a bust of Anubus on the right. Place the Eye of Horus in front of the bust, opening the barred door. |

Go through the door and left into a room with three red teleporters and an ankh on the floor. Go through the red teleporter on the left, entering the Palace of the Pharaoh. You will see a flight of stairs in front of you, flanked by 2 gray tubes. Go to the tube on the right and hit the gray button there, opening the bars. Go down the tube and fall into the water. Along the left wall you will see a Krater of Might and a chest. Smash the chest to get the Scarab of Time. Retrace your steps back through the tube and enter the red teleporter to the Temple of Horus. |
