Aura: Fate of the Ages Hints

How can I activate the waterwheel?

  • 1 of 8: The waterwheel area is only accessible after you've used the elevator.
  • 2 of 8: The large machine in the room with the waterwheel might be able to help...
  • 3 of 8: ...except it currently doesn't have a source of power.
  • 4 of 8: Perhaps you could activate it the same way you activated the elevator.
  • 5 of 8: You should see some pipes on your right side, as you enter the cave area with the waterwheel (with your back to the elevator).
  • 6 of 8: Follow the pipes carefully.  You should encounter two wheels installed along the pipes.  Turn both of them.
  • 7 of 8: Now that power has been restored to the large machine, the large machine will also need to be activated.
  • 8 of 8: Click on the handle at the center of the machine to get the waterwheel into position.
