Ankh Hints

  • 1 of 7: To get this task, you must finish the "Find the Pharaoh's daughter" task. (I put this task name in angle brackets because it doesn't actually appear in the to-do list for some reason.)
  • 2 of 7: After you climb the stairs to Osiris' hangout, you need to consistently refuse to hand over the ankh.
  • 3 of 7: If you ever choose a dialogue topic that gives the Ankh to Osiris, it'll all turn out to be a "vision," and you'll have another chance.
  • 4 of 7: The same goes for when you take control of Thara and Osiris takes control of Assil.
  • 5 of 7: After Assil's killed and turned into spirit form, you'll need to choose the right dialogue option to activate the ankh.
  • 6 of 7: Fortunately, you don't need to somehow know which one is right. Just keep trying them until you get the right one.
  • 7 of 7: Then just watch what happens until you regain control of the restored Assil.
