Voyage Hints

What do the different formulas represent?

  • 1 of 7: When you have looked at all of the formulas, they will be added to Ardan's log.  You can return to the log at any time, to review the formulas.
  • 2 of 7: On the Purifier itself, the formulas are divided between two panels -- one on the left, and one on the right.
  • 3 of 7: When you look at close-ups of the formulas, it may not be apparent at first what they represent.  But try to be a bit intuitive, as you read the ideograms.
  • 4 of 7: In some cases, the formula alone is provided; in other cases, after the formula for creating the compound is shown, there will be another formula that shows using the compound.  This can provide additional information regarding the purpose of that particular formula.
  • 5 of 7: Each formula begins with putting something into the Purifier.
  • 6 of 7: In each case, the purple fruit is involved.  (This must be pretty basic to the Purifier.)
  • 7 of 7: The following descriptions will be based on the position of the formulas on the two panels.  (Depending on which order you looked at them in, you may find that they are in a different order in the log,)
