Memory[edit]


Walkthrough[edit]

  • There are 3 locations that Bayek will need to search with Senu.
  • Each of these has a brazier set for Anubis that must be relit, after a threat or puzzle has been resolved.

Southern Shrine[edit]

  • The Southern shrine is found just to the North of where Bayek and Nefertari part.
  • Head out of the quarry and over the nearby ridge.
  • This will lead to the platform that was erected above a small pool of water.
  • Go over to the platform then interact with the toppled torch.
  • This will begin an investigation area.
  • There are a few things that can be investigated.
  • The first is a blood stain by the broken railing.
  • There is some blood on the rocks below the railing.
  • A dead body floats on the surface of the pool.
  • Below the body, in the water is the final item, the torch top
  • You can instantly complete it by diving into the water below.
  • Collect the top and climb back up to the platform above you.
  • Interact with it to trigger a cutscene.
  • Finally, pull out a torch and light the Anubis shrine by standing by it.

Natural Well[edit]

  • The Natural Well is found to the South of Nitria.
  • This is the same location as the local Hyena Lair, so expect to fight when you arrive there.
  • Use Senu to find the precise location.
  • Travel across Nitria and head over to the Hyena Lair.
  • Once there, you will need to fight through the Hyenas.
  • All these Hyenas will be in the low 20's, with the Alpha being around 24.
  • Once they are defeated, head under the overhanging stone slabs.

There can be 4 additional Hyenas that will come and attack you.

  • Defeat them and then you can quickly investigate to learn a little about what has been done to the area.
  • Look at the hanging pig and investigate it.
  • Be sure to look under the nearby hanging clothes to find a valuable chest.
  • Go into the small pocket of a cave.
  • Inside there you will find the unlit Torch of Anubis.
  • Pull out your torch and ignite it.
  • Simply stand by the torch to light it with your own torch out.

Bent Pyramid[edit]

  • Make your way to the search area for the Bent Pyramid, to the Southeast of Nitria.
  • This Pyramid has 2 entrances, a high one and a "ground" level one.
  • The high one is initially blocked so you will need to break what is obstructing it to progress.
  • Head to the Northern side of the Pyramid and find the entrance there.
  • Go into the dark passage, pulling out a Torch to light your way.
  • Immediately start attacking the 2 Cobras that are lying in wait inside the first chamber of the pyramid.
  • With those defeated, climb up the back wall.
  • In the next chamber, climb up the far wall to progress forward.
  • This will lead to a covered window that you will need to attack.
  • After a few hits, the barred window will be open and you can see through it.
  • Drop your torch (or throw it through the window).
  • Pull out your bow and fire an arrow at the large pot blocking the large crate just through the window to the right.
  • This will break it and allow access to the Shrine of Anubis inside the pyramid.
  • Make your way back outside and to the other entrance, the High Entrance, of the Bent Pyramid.
  • Climb up the side of the pyramid and go into the opening on the Western face.
  • Ignite a torch and head through the webbing.
  • Look to the left past the webbing to find a short upramp.
  • Go up it and look to the right to find a few lootable containers.
  • Now go to the crate across from where you entered.
  • Push the crate forward from there.
  • When it stops, go around it and head into the next chamber of the pyramid.
  • You will find the final torch to Anubis in front of you.
  • Approach the torch.
  • Simply stand by the torch to light it with your own torch out.
