Echo: Secrets of the Lost Cavern Hints
How are the story fragments arranged when I first encounter the puzzle?
1 of 11: From left to right the story fragments start out arranged in the following order: The symbol on the far left, which looks like a "V" and an upside down "V" underneath, tells that is not easy to catch a fish, but that the fish caught was shared with a traveler.
2 of 11: The second symbol (from the left) tells of how Arok began his adventure by hunting a stag. This symbol looks like a cluster of dots.
3 of 11: The third symbol tells of a bear sleeping, and finding a way to make it flee. This symbol looks like a tuft of pine needles, with several vertical lines close together near the top and fanning out near the bottom.
4 of 11: The fourth symbol tells how Arok was famished when he found the valley and he decided to go fishing. This symbol looks like a vertical line with several gently curving lines near the bottom. The lines near the bottom are close to the central vertical line near their top, and they fan out, away from the central line near the bottom.
5 of 11: The fifth symbol tells about the hunting lioness choosing Arok for lunch. This symbol looks like the tail feathers of an arrow, with the shaft of the arrow angling up and to the right.
6 of 11: The sixth symbol tells about the signs found before arriving in Tika's cave. This symbol looks like a column of arrows pointing to the left.
7 of 11: The seventh symbol tells about "his" [Toar's] thankfulness and how he showed Arok some things. This symbol looks similar to a backwards "Y", with a line angled from the top left to the bottom right, with a couple of additional lines near the top, leading away from the top of the angled line.
8 of 11: The eighth symbol tells how Arok took refuge in a cave, where he discovered Klem's trail. This symbol looks like the outline of a pointed leaf, with angled lines inside, marking the veins of the leaf.
9 of 11: The ninth symbol tells of the labyrinth through the mountain, the red and black hands, and climbing the shaft at the end. This symbol looks like a tuft of grass, with several lines curving upwards, their bottoms nearly touching.
10 of 11: The tenth symbol tells of crossing the pool of water with the help of the stag fresco. This symbol looks like a row of arrows pointing down.
11 of 11: The eleventh symbol tells of the need to exit the cave and vanquish the beast to find "him" [Klem]. This symbol looks like a "T" shape with several vertical lines hanging down from the top of the "T."
