How do I get through the huge chasm area?
  • 1 of 6: Turn right from the door into the area to find a rock ramp leading up.
  • 2 of 6: Follow the ledge along until you come to the spot that has a small blue-white statue of a Skeleton Warrior.
  • 3 of 6: Use it to open the locked door you passed along the way and to start the Banshee statues firing magical energy.
  • 4 of 6: Time your movement back to the door to avoid getting hit by the Banshee fire, then move toward the purple crystal thing to get to the next area.
  • 5 of 6: Note that you have to open two "secret" doors in order to get to the forest.
  • 6 of 6: NOTE: In the chasm area, you can cast Feather Fall on yourself and drop to the bottom of the chasm to find a Terror to kill. To get back up, hop onto the lift in the center of the chasm and use it. You have to be quick when jumping off it to a ledge since it always squeaks "Uh, oh!" and descends quickly when it gets fairly high up.
