Redguard Hints

Where is the snake constellation?

  • 1 of 11: Look up at the stars.  (To change your point of view, press and hold down the ALT key while pressing the directional keys.)  The grid in the sky above you is important.
  • 2 of 11: Draw the grid as it appears in the sky, including all of the sections, rings and symbols.  (Or use my Star Map.)
  • 3 of 11: According to Ffoulke's Firmaments, the Warrior looks toward the Snake's position.
  • 4 of 11: Look at the Warrior constellation through the telescope.
  • 5 of 11: Two symbols appear in the area around the Warrior while you are looking at it in the telescope.  The top left one is his main symbol.  The top right shows the same symbol, but with an important marking to one side.
  • 6 of 11: Step into the Warrior's shoes.  The mark, then, would be on HIS right side.
  • 7 of 11: The Warrior is looking ahead and slightly to the right, at approximately 1 o'clock.
  • 8 of 11: On the star map, the Warrior symbol sits in the outermost ring of the circle. Follow his gaze across the map to the other side,  then one position to the right, to represent 1 o'clock.  There is a symbol in that block.
  • 9 of 11: The Snake is threatening one of the Warrior's Charges who sits in that square.  You need to look more closely at that constellation.
  • 10 of 11: Go back downstairs, find and select the matching symbol.  Ride the elevator arm back up and look into the telescope.
  • 11 of 11: Turn the wheel to view both the head and tail of the Snake.  Mark them carefully on your star map.
