Episode Seven: Home again

You are an adult again. Cast the Veil of the Nautilus Spell on
yourself as soon as possible. The mermaids' song will do you harm
if you don't use this spell. Remember the Sirens of mythology? Go
the Mermaid in the center of the scene, show her the flask and
talk to her. She will agree to help you, and gives you the Conch
of Khronos. If you missed filling the flask before the Mermaid
came, do it now before you take the Conch.  Take the Conch and
watch the automatic sequence. You blow a note on the Conch,
causing a wave. It affects the guards, and the rebels are unhurt.
The conch turns to sand, and it's time to go to work.

Episode Eight: Ready for Battle

Head for the temple. Suggestion: Save your game at the beginning
of this episode. You will have a tough battle in the Temple, and
will want to practice your strategy. Avoid the battles on the way
through town.  (Use the Spectral Body spell to slip through the
town unscathed.) As you come to the entrance of Temple Square, you
will see Ashamira engaged in a fight. Make yourself invisible and
go past them. Enter the temple. Vaporize the Chronomancer as soon
as possible. You will need to use the Chronophore or the Wrist
Jadgar on him. If you couldn't find a Chronophore in the Lemurs'
cave, there is one on the far side of the big altar in the temple.
Cast Warp on yourself to become invisible, so you can get to the
Chronophore. He is tough to beat. One way is to stay invisible
until you can get right up close to him, and cast the Stop Time
spell. Then shoot. It is more effective to fire the Chronophore
slowly and deliberately, because each time you fire it, it
discharges twice.

One thing to watch for, is when you enter the room, you can't see
the Chronomancer yet, but if you hear him cast a protective spell
on himself (sounds like drawing a sword) load your game again. You
can't spell him if he's protected. Here's an alternate (Easier)
way to beat the Chronomancer: when you enter the temple, walk
straight ahead to the altar. Look for the crack in the altar, and
stand right there. The altar will absorb all the weapon- fire and
spells, and you will be safe. Use the wrist Jadgar to shoot in the
direction of the Chronomancer. You can't see him, but you can hear
when your shots strike. He is shielded at first, but eventually
you will get him. Thanks 'Odin' for finding this method. *

After the Chronomancer is toast, you can relax until you leave the
temple. Talk to the Effahid. He just happens to be the deaf guard
from the sanctuary. He will give you the key to the red door, the
same one where you needed the Seal before.  Walk around to the far
back of the room and try what looks like a back door. Something
strange here? Erase the illusion and get a charged hourglass for
your efforts. If you were exploring carefully back in Episode One,
you found this "strange" spot, but couldn't do anything about it
unless you were clever enough to try the Nautilus on it. Or you
might have found it in Episode Three, when you shouldn't have been
in the temple anyway, and got zapped for your efforts. Find the
Black Salt Gem and the Chronophore on the altar. (If you already
have a Chronophore, leave this one. You don't need two.)

Go to Vel Subek's Sanctuary. (Out the Temple door, and head right,
into the first alley.) You will need to get by the guard at the
red door.  The same technique (invisible, stop-time, shoot) works
pretty well. Inside the walls are two more Shekandars who have
nothing better to do than shoot at you. If you are invisible, and
if you know the way, you can get past them and into the Sanctuary
door unscathed. Vel Subek will talk to you and reveal something.
When he is done talking, explore. You can find sand crystals, salt
globes, an hourglass in the small bookcase, and if you position
the stairs correctly, a "Vapor Thrower" on top of the large
bookcase at the right-hand end. Optional: You can go into the
sphere and talk with the lemur. He will trade the Acceleration
Spell for an hourglass. It speeds you up. Go to the city gates and
see the machine. (Out of the alley, go left, and take the first
road toward Hourglass Square. Don't step into it. Go back and see
Vel Subek. He created the Cyclops and will help you to destroy it.

Approach the machine with Vel Subek. Use your adjustable spanner
to open the central panel of the machine. Put the wrench away,
pull out the middle cable, which releases Ashamira from the
paralyzing field. Go to the palace gates (beyond the Hourglass)
where you will find Ashamira engaged in battle with the guards.
She can't quite pull it off without your help. Make yourself
invisible, go up the steps and paralyze and shoot the guard who is
not fighting. Then do the same with the other one. (Wait until the
guards are actively firing at Ashamira.  If you go too soon, they
both concentrate on you.) Enter the throne room by pulling the
levers together with Ashamira. She shows you how. The Heirarch is
in there, and he is one tough dude. His only desire is to
eliminate you. It turns out the best way to get the better of him
is the lesson you learned before.  Run away from him, lurking in
the shadows for a while.  Ashamira will fight him while protecting
herself.  She keeps the Heirarch occupied while you can sneak up
and use the Chronophore. Three or four good shots should do it.

When he vaporizes, you can relax for the time being. Pick up the
black salt gem on the table, if you didn't already get it while
Ashamira was doing your dirty work. Go into the sphere, where
there is an unpleasant but harmless Lemur. If you try to take the
spells, he transports you out. Carry the quartz flask with you,
and the Lemur is repelled. Two good spells: The Mermaids' Song to
cause your opponent to be insane, (works on Lemurs) and the
Chronomantic Armor to cancel spells cast by your opponent.  You
could go into the sphere while Ashamira is fighting. The
Chronomanntic Armor can give you some protection when you exit and
join the battle. Now to find Ulmoreth: he is trapped behind the
secret door. Examine the four statues with hourglasses. Turn over
each hourglass once only. You need to activate them in the correct
order. The clue comes from the scroll near the entrance to Vel
Subek's Sanctuary of Memory.  The order is: Woman, Old Man, Child,
Shekandar.

Woman (Adhamid) is left of the entrance, just right of the rear of
the sphere. Old Man (Vissahid) is the next one to the right of the
entrance. Child (Effahid) is to the right of the throne, and left
of the sphere; and Shekandar is left of the throne, between there
and the Vissahid. The secret door is behind the table where the
black salt gem was.

See Screenshot - Time Machine Images

The secret door will open. Go in and talk to Ulmoreth, ultimately
to exit and talk to Vel Subek. You will return to the Mine-
Monastery area.

Episode Nine: In the Mines

The key lets you into the mine entrance. When you step forward,
you see the sequence with the Chronomancer woman and a worker,
after which she attacks you immediately. You must have a strategy
in place. The new Chronomantic Armor spell protects you allright,
but it only lasts two or three seconds, and costs a whopping two
and a half Jad Garr-l points. The stop-time also delays her, but
not for long. It will be a fight. You might try the Tuning Fork.

Two players have sent suggestions for this sequence: Odin's
advice: "Here I used the vapour thrower - in the salt processing
room (Shekandar), in the control room (guard), in the organ room
(Shekandar) I assigned it to key 1, and Chronophore to key 2. Move
quickly and not straight, thus avoiding the spells the
Chronomancer fires at you, when you are near her press
1,2,2,1,2,2, and so on, she should be harmless. If you are quick
you can get out of it with no loss of Jad Garr-l and health." SS
Posey's advice: Upon entering the mine, immediately pull out your
Chronophore. Half-hide beside the wall protrusion just as you
enter, and fire from safety. I killed her without getting hit at
all."

Don't go look at the robot (you can see it in the movie, so you
know where not to go.) Go to the controls, and the furthest one
straight ahead gives you control of the robot. It is standing on
the bridge and must be moved back. (Press space to take control of
the robot, then the down-arrow to move it back.) The control
nearest the entrance controls the bridge.  The middle one, which
the woman turned off, is the power to the mine cars and lifts. We
need to destroy the robot, so do this: back up the robot so it is
not standing on the bridge. Retract the bridge.  Move the robot
forward until it falls over the bridge into the mine.  Turn the
power back on. Watch carefully, and you will see a mine-car get
stuck. It is on this same level, the middle of three levels. Put
the bridge back and cross it, looking around to the left (go
behind that stuck mine-car) until you find the lift. Take it
downstairs, find the smashed robot, examine it and retrieve the
Disrupter. Talk to Semireth. He gives you a clue how to get to the
Monastery.

A mine car could help. Remember the Salt Processing Room? Take the
lift up to the third level, with the disrupter ready. Use it
immediately on the robot so it doesn't attack. Go across to the
controls, put the robot on the lift, and take it back to the
second floor. Now exit the lift to your right, find the gap in the
guard rail, and wait for a conveyor. Hop on, and ride to the third
floor. (Don't forget to turn around so you are facing the floor,
lest you jump into the abyss.) Jump off, control the robot to push
the mine car. Now things are moving again. Call the lift with the
red button and take it to the bottom floor.  (Press down again
when it pauses at the middle level) Take a conveyor to the second
floor and jump into the mine car.  (Don't forget to turn toward
the car.)

See Screenshot Time Machine Mine Car

You will ride to the salt processing room. Quickly turn left and
press space to get out of the car, or the Chronomancer will use
the gas on you. The monk in the Green robe is there. If he fights
you, zap him. There is a Black Salt Gem on the table. Go around
the elevated area, past the small passageway, and into the control
station. Look for the silver doors. Zap the warrior before he gets
to you. Play with the control stations. The one straight in from
the door only arouses your curiosity. The one to your left is a
surveillance station, and gives you more views than you have had
before. Notice how the mini-prison walls are lowered. Be sure to
watch carefully when Tetradon controls the robot. Use the four
arrow keys to move your surveillance view.  Press Esc. to quit the
view. The machine to your back is the control for the transporter
maze. Activate it to repair the Web of Time. (If you have observed
the maze carefully, you found that it is constructed in the shape
of a nautilus. The maze is rebuilt, and Ashamira and the Rebels
cross the maze. A Time Wave occurs and you are old.

You can pick up another Salt Gem before you leave the processing
room. Go back to the Chronomancer's room, and walk into one of the
transporter beams. You are challenged to a duel where all your
weapons are deactivated, and you must use only spells to fight.
You should get the first shot. Stop-time him ASAP, put on your
armor, and deharmonize him. It is possible to survive with your
powers intact. (There is a Sand Globe on a table near the sphere,
and a Black Salt Gem on the table near the interactive map.)

After this battle, go up the stairs near the passageway you
escaped into before, into the control pulpit and take control of
the robot.  Send the robot around the other side, where Ashamira
is occupied fighting the other robot. Make your robot attack the
other one (press Ctrl). Both robots blow up.  Make your way down
to Ashamira. She and Ulmoreth will be fighting two guards. You can
hang back until they deharmonize both guards. Then, they head for
the Organ Room door. Talk to Ulmoreth and Ashamira.

Go into the organ room. You enter, and see Tetradon control a
flying robot to entrap Ulmoreth. You step forward, and Tetradon
also traps Ashamira. You must find the controls to the robot. Go
straight ahead, through the area where Tetradon's pulpit is, and
run around the metal catwalk until you find the entrance to the
room where the Shekandar is apparently controlling the robot.
Deharmonize him. (If you can't manage t deharmonize him, just use
the Spectral Body Spell to avoid injury.) In each of the four
corners there is a robot control. You must get to each corner and
activate the lever without getting hit by the robot's ray.  Creep
along the walls. The sequence is unimportant. The robot is
finished, and Tetradon reappears. Armor yourself or protect with
the Spectral Body Spell before he attacks you and go to Ulmoreth's
trap and turn the wheel to free him. (<space/left arrow>) When you
release Ulmoreth, Tetradon hides in a secret room and you will
have to figure out how to open the passage to the room. The key is
playing notes on the "organ" in the correct sequence. You get some
clue by listening as he plays the notes, then watching as the
secret door opens, which two levers had been pulled.

Go to the circular area across from the robot control room.  The
three levers control the organ's functions. The keyboards are the
big semicircles. Don't worry, you don't have to be musical here;
just select the five notes in the right order.  Do this: as you
approach the organ area, the three control levers are all up. Put
the center one and the right one down.  Then, let's call the right
semicircle A and the left one B. Go to the right half of A
(closest to you) and play the note once. Go to the left half of A
and play the note once. Turn around and go to the left half of the
B side (again, closest to you) and play the note twice. Then to
the right half of B and play once. The door should open. If you
goof up, start over by cycling the control levers. Here's a
picture:

See Screenshot Time Machine Controls

Inside the room is an arch, decorated with eleven pyramid- shaped
holes. Around the perimeter of the room are fourteen busts with
pyramids above. Therefore, three must be booby- trapped. To place
a pyramid in the arch, just go touch it. To avoid being injured by
the traps, protect yourself with the Spectral Body spell. Activate
the arch by going around the back side of it and casting the arch
spell or using the Nautilus. You are back on the beach.

Episode Ten: Watch your Back

Talk to the Mermaid. She gives you the Foam Key and some advice,
and leaves with Ulmoreth. Before you leave, be sure you have
filled the flask with water. The place to get it is on the far
right, just at the edge of the water. If you managed to fill it in
Episode Six, it is still full. Pick up the Shell of Time near the
place where you fill the flask.

Go through the pillars. You and Ashamira are in a cavern. Right
behind you is another Shell of Time. Explore the perimeter until
you find a stone lever in the wall, just to the left of the
stairs.  When you approach the stairs or if you attempt to pull
the lever, Tetradon Logor Shar appears, and Ashamira is cornered
by a pair of Lemurs. Tetradon tells you he wants that key. Give it
to him. Unfortunately, he uses it in the wrong keyhole, and joins
the Sands of Time. As soon as you are able to move, go onto the
platform. You cannot be attacked while you are standing there.

Cast the Spectral Body spell on yourself, rendering yourself
invulnerable to attack. Run and operate the lever, closing one-
quarter of the door to the Lemurs' nest. Return to the Pillars and
wait for the Spell to wear off. Cast the Spectral Body spell
again, and run to the second lever that appears. The second one is
on the left wall, near the far end of the room. If you are slow,
or wander around, cast the spell again. Return to the Pillars and
wait again for the spell to dissipate. Cast the spell and close
the third lever; this time on the right wall near the other end of
the room. Return to the pillars, let the spell wear off, and cast
it one last time. Close the fourth lever, which is on the left
wall, right where Tetradon was standing. Return to the pillars. If
you need one, there is a Shell of Time behind the pillars. Here's
where you have a choice to make. Ashamira seems to be gone;
deharmonized by the Lemurs. However, if you destroy all the
Lemurs, she will reappear ("reminded", she calls it). So the
choice is - you can simply take the Foam Key, and discover which
is the correct pillar and forget about Ashamira, or you can bring
her back from the 'Sands' and take her with you into the next
episode. It is the better ending to have her with you. Stay on the
platform, and use the Chronoeider to shoot the Lemurs. If you were
efficient in closing the gates, there will only be three.  There
may be more if you were slow, but it doesn't matter.  Some of them
will probably hang back near the gates, and will be hard to see
until you step forward a little. As long as you stay on the top
step, they can't hurt you. Thanks to "Lone Wolf" for discovering
the method of remaining on the platform.

When Ashamira reappears, talk to her. She has lost all her memory.
How to get it back? Trying a Black Salt gem doesn't seem to work.
Aha! The Flask filled with water from the Sea of Eternity! That
restores her memory, and she is ready to go with you.

In the pillars, Tetradon had been fooled by an illusion. Retrieve
the Foam Key that Tetradon left in the wrong keyhole. Use the
Nautilus and you will see an effect on the correct pillar. Use the
Foam Key on that pillar and be transported to the Sanctuary of
Khronos.

Episode Eleven: The Final Conflict

There is a Shell of Time on the barrel. Talk with Ashamira about
the meaning of the room you are in. Examine the clock with the
quartz hand. Also examine the plans on the drafting table. Go up
the steps to inspect the Chronoeider. Uh-Oh, Tetradon Logor Shar
appears, in the form of a Lemur. As soon as the conversation ends
and you can move, hide behind the Chronoeider. Thanks again to
Lone Wolf for this idea. Use the Chronophore to fire from your
hiding place. Here's a tip: While you are exploring the sanctuary,
Ashamira changes position several times. Wait until she goes up
the steps to the Chronoeider, then go there with her and touch the
Chronoeider.  That way, when the fight begins, she will be at your
side.  Observe her as she shoots at Logar Shar, and she aims in
different directions. Change your aim slightly to match hers.
After you both hit him together a few times. It is over. If you
used this technique, you may have come through the whole scene
without any injury. If she is not visible, don't worry - she is
attacking him even if you can't see her.  When Logor Shar
evaporates, talk to Ashamira. When you move back to the
Chronoeider, Khronos himself appears. Talk to him. Listen to the
entire dialogue, it's the whole point of the story. At the end,
you are invited to destroy Khronos in order to save the Universe.
Khronos is easily defeated, he has no power, but the Chronoeider
tries to defend him. (It's not very sporting, but the way to not
be injured is to move around behind Khronos, stand at the foot of
the stairway and shoot him in the back. The Chronoeider cannot hit
you from there. Ashamira will join the void; she cannot come to
London with you. Go back to the Chronoeider, and the automatic
scene unfolds. Don't wait around too long before returning to the
Chronoeider, or you will also end up in the void.

For a special treat, be sure to watch the credits. Wonderful
sketches and concepts!
