Dracula: Origin Hints

How can I decipher the hieroglyphics in the torn letter?

  • 1 of 12: Find somebody to ask about them -- someone who might know the answer to this.
  • 2 of 12: Someone learned. Someone in a position of authority over ancient texts and equipment.
  • 3 of 12: No, not the monk. The other one. :) Certainly not Mustapha!
  • 4 of 12: Head back to the museum and show the sheet of hieroglyphics to the assistant director.
  • 5 of 12: He will offer the use of a book on his desk that can help you decipher them.
  • 6 of 12: There is no real clue to this puzzle. You are then given a list of eighteen words or phrases which you need to match up with the eighteen symbols. I saw no clue or indication of what they should say -- I just messed around until I got the right answer.
  • 7 of 12: Try to form sensible sentences.
  • 8 of 12: The first line reads: "WEAPON / WITH / MAGICAL POWERS / WITHIN / SEKER / HEAD".
  • 9 of 12: You now only have twelve words left, so the next lines should be easier to work out.
  • 10 of 12: The second line reads: "CURSED / BLOOD / HIDDEN / UNDER / NORTH / ALTAR".
  • 11 of 12: Now, with only six remaining, figure out the last line.
  • 12 of 12: The last line reads: "BEFORE / ENTER / DARKNESS / DESTROY / GUARD / CURSE BE ON YOU FOREVER".
