Ultima IX: Ascension Hints
Okay, I'm down in the Abyss. Where should I go?
1 of 5: This entire area is very confusing. When you first drop into The Abyss, you can see stones surrounded by fire and lava. Above and to your right are brightly colored flashing lights.
2 of 5: Jump from rock to rock. Feel free to explore the areas surrounded by lava, but be forewarned! There are demons, dragons, and fire-shooting Hellhounds lurking nearby!
3 of 5: Keep a watchful eye on your compass, because eventually you need to go in the direction of those tall statues with the flashing lights.
4 of 5: Down below, in the middle of those statues, is the gateway to each of the four "Elemental Planes" that will lead you to Lord British and Blackthorn.
