Ultima IX: Ascension Hints

Where is the exit out of here?

  • 1 of 11: When you placed the Orange Statue on its Orange Pedestal, the cut-scene showed the floor in another nearby room opening.
  • 2 of 11: Go across the hall a bit north to find a new pool of water.
  • 3 of 11: Dive down in and look around for a switch of some kind.
  • 4 of 11: A wheel-shaped valve on the north wall should be turned.  This causes something else to open.
  • 5 of 11: That cut-scene showed a barred underwater portcullis opening.  It should look familiar.
  • 6 of 11: You were there not long ago when finding the Orange Statue.
  • 7 of 11: Go back north of the Wheel Room and head to the pool in the west room.
  • 8 of 11: Save your game!  The swim is a little long, but not overly difficult if you know where to go.
  • 9 of 11: Jump in and move southeast to the doorway underwater.  Pause at the bubbles -- they'll fill your air supply.
  • 10 of 11: Keep going south and then west to the end of the waterway.  It will look like a dead-end.
  • 11 of 11: Turn around and swim up into the tunnel.  Look for a hole in the ceiling where you can get out -- right next to the Shrine near New Magincia.
