Dark Earth Hints
How can I open the Tomb door?
1 of 9: Find the panels on either side of the door.
2 of 9: The two mechanisms must be set correctly. Each consists of 3 symbols with 3 levers.
3 of 9: Rylsadhar's notes mention an encantation and runes, which these symbols represent.
4 of 9: Loosely translated, Rylsadhar wrote that the followers of Runka, the Children of the Sun, should be protected from the world, which was destroyed by Shankr.
5 of 9: Study Rylsadhar's drawings. A few of the designs are missing, but they're easy to figure out. Each of the runes represents a word.
6 of 9: Make two simple phrases with the symbols, following the translation, with three words each.
7 of 9: The left side symbols should be aligned to read: Runka Sun Protect
8 of 9: The right side symbols should read: World Destroy Shankr
