crying girl. Notice that her birds have escaped. Grain will help
Ione retrieve her birds.

Mohammed's and scatter the grain on the ground next to the cage.

Problem:
Where should I go after completing all the tasks in the bazaar?

Problem:
Which house is Fatima's?

Galahad, Catacombs  and the Hierophant.  Give her the  purse and
enter the door that opens to take the test.

Problem:
How can I pass the Test of Symbols?
Hint:
To pass the  test, you must have the  symbols that Al-Sirat gave
you when you asked him about goddesses and the information found
on pages 9  and 10 of your Liber Ex  Doctrina. When you have the
symbols, put  the correct symbol  in the correct  square. Fatima
will tell you if you passed the test.

Problem:
Where is the Hierophant? Where are the catacombs?
Hint:
The Hierophant  is the old  beggar who wanted  charcoal. Talk to
him and  ask him to open  the catacombs. If you  have passed the
Test of Symbols, he will give you the elixer.

Problem:
What should I do in the catacombs?
Hint:
You should use  your lodestone to find your  way around. Look at
the murals. You  should locate a child's mummy  with a medallion
and  a sarcophagus  that opens.  Search the  catacombs until you
find Galahad.

Problem:
What do I do when I find the child's mummy?
Hint:
Stand close to  the right of the child's  mummy (not too close).
Use your sword to get the medallion.

Problem:
What do I do when I find the sarcophagus?

open end of  the sarcophagus. If you have  the medallion you can
get the Golden apple, if not... well you can always restore.

Problem:
I have found Galahad, what should I do?
Hint:
Give Galahad the elixir that the Hierophant gave you to save his
life.

Problem:
I keep getting bitten by a rat when I try to rescue Galahad!
Hint:
There is  nothing you can  do to avoid  being bitten by  the rat
when you enter  this chamber. From now on,  your time is limited
so do  not delay. Give Galahad  the elixer and leave  this room.
Find the statue of Aphrodite.

Problem:
I've found the statue of Aphrodite. What should I do?
Hint:
Put the golden apple into the palm  of her hand. You can get the
golden apple from the sarcophagus.

Problem:
I can't answer Aphrodite's questions.
Hint:
You can find  the answers to her questions on  page 10 and 11 of
your Liber Ex Doctrina.

Problem:
How do I get out of the catacombs?
Hint:
After you have saved Galahad, go  to the statue of Aphrodite and
put a  golden apple into her  palm. Answer all of  her questions
correctly and she will give you the directions on how to get out
of  the  catacombs.  Listen  carefully  and  make  a note of the
directions she  gives you. When  the secret doors  open, use the
lodestone to  determine which door  to take. The  lodestone will
always point North.  Take the stairs out of  the catacombs after
looking at the dead warrior's skull.

     9 ... The Temple Of Aphrodite
Problem:
What should I do in the Temple?
Hint:
Walk all  around the Temple so  that you have seen  each part of
it. When the  Saracen appears and challenges you  to battle, eat
the Strength apple. Eat it before you put on the helmet. This is
also  a good  place to  Save your  game. Put  on the  helmet the
Saracen offers you. You are then  locked in battle to the death.
For instructions on how to fight the Saracen, Read page 21-23 of
your  Liber Ex  Doctrina. If  you have  difficulty defeating the
Saracen, adjust the arcade mode to an easier setting.

Problem:
I keep dying of poison!
Hint:
If you die  of poison you must restore to  the catacombs and try
to  accomplish your  tasks after  being bitten  by the  rat more
quickly.

Problem:
What do I do once I defeat the Saracen?
Hint:
Use  the dove  that Aphrodite  gave you.  Follow the  dove until
Aphrodite  appears. Listen  carefully to  her words.  Ask Merlin
about the Spiral. Facing the spiral  on the inside of the Temple
(not from the stairs), move to  the left. Count the places where
each  pillar once  stood until  you come  to the  remains of the
sixth pillar. Push the pillar.

Problem:
Where is the Grail?
Hint:
Beneath a broken pillar in the Temple.

Problem:
A thief has stolen the Grail! What should I do?
Hint:
There is nothing  you can do to prevent  the thief from stealing
the Grail. Chase  the thief down the stairs  and into the alley.
Once you have trapped him in  the alley, you may either kill the
thief of show mercy by picking up the Grail.
