Journey to the Center of the Earth Hints

Where is the Matriarch?

  • 1 of 6: She is not inside the gazebo so she must be hiding somewhere else.
  • 2 of 6: Talk to the only person still here -- the Healer.  Do a few favors for her first.
  • 3 of 6: She tells you that the Matriarch is in the Valley of the Spirits.
  • 4 of 6: She's nowhere to be found on the ground.  Perhaps she is on the Floating Island.
  • 5 of 6: Go to the rock with the stone head.  There's a message where there once was a tongue!
  • 6 of 6: Take it and read it!  She must have gone to Askiam.
