A New Beginning Hints

The streamlet carried away the crystal!

  • 1 of 6: Then follow the streamlet to look where it flushed the crystal.
  • 2 of 6: Check the runlet to look for the crystal.
  • 3 of 6: Simply by looking at the runlet, Fay is not able to see where it transported the crystal, so you have to mark the water's path.
  • 4 of 6: Try something that gets dissolved in water but is still visible.
  • 5 of 6: It's something Fay got during Chapter 1.
  • 6 of 6: Use the soap on the streamlet in that position, where the data crystal was caught in the stone slab.
