Pickups in this mission
01Devoured Village entrance: turn back for the Soulstone first
Resume the main story with Devoured Village.
Elamein accompanies Khazan, but a purple light draws her away shortly after arrival.
Rest at the Nexus, then turn back before proceeding to find the first Soulstone.
The first Soulstone is hidden behind the arrival area.
03House left of the steps: climb across the roofs and enter through the opening

A purple item lies on the building's highest level.
Climb the ladder and jump across to the opposite roof.
Drop through the opening in the right roof for the Deep Darkness Scroll on a beam.

Drop down, clear the undead and leave through the hidden door.
Climb the ladder in the neighboring room to leave.
Continue right along the main route.
Open the room's chest and dodge its explosion.
The side rooms contain minor loot rather than collection items. Descend here for the main route.
Take the elevator down.
06Bat cave entrance and shaft: descend to the drainpipe
The forward branch below is empty. Enter the right opening after shooting the hanging bat with Javelin; the narrow terrain makes a direct fight awkward.
Descend the ledges carefully and collect the memory below.
Enter the sewer pipe at the bottom.
07Below the pipe Nexus: clear leeches and circle to the gate shortcut
Follow it to a Blade Nexus and rest.
Drop from the path's end onto the pipe below. The iron gate ahead is locked.
Turn back toward a platform with a purple item. After collecting it, drop down, taking some fall damage.
Leeches below drain health when they bite. Separate them or use an area-damage consumable.

Enter the library and explore behind the shelves on the left.
Interact with the innermost bookshelf for a Soulstone behind it.
Leave and go right for Tania's Experiment Log in the corner.
20Disable the barrier: ride the central elevator down
Activate the nearby mechanism to disable the shield beneath Elamein.
Return to her room and take the central elevator down.
Rest at the Nexus straight ahead.
21Drop beside the elevator: climb around to the memory below
A memory is visible behind you but cannot be reached directly.
Climb the nearby stairs to the switch. Check the elevator's position; move it only if it blocks the route.
From this ledge, drop carefully to the memory below. The marked landing area is safer.
22Laser room through the right door: open the bookshelf passage and disable the beams

Collect the Scout's Record in the left corner.

Open the chest and rest.
The gate on the right leads back to Elamein and the boss fight.
36Experimental chamber: face Elamein consumed by chaos
Enter to find Elamein released from the device but consumed by chaos. She is this chapter's boss.
Elamein has no phase transition and resists interruption. Learn her individual attacks.
Attack ①:
She charges three electrified blade waves. Dodge because guarding does not prevent status buildup. Her poise briefly weakens afterward.
Attack ②:
A jumping slam without a follow-up. Time your deflection for the landing.
Attack ③:
Two close shield-and-weapon hits lead into a sword grab. Dodge the grab.
Attack ④:
Her weapon shines while charging a light wave. Use the glow as your dodge cue.
Attack ⑤:
A shield charge can be lethal if every hit connects. Watch her backward step before she rushes.
Attack ⑥:
A stronger jumping slam throws the shield first. Her arm draws backward before the throw.
Attack ⑦:
She charges a giant light blade, sweeps it around and brings it down vertically.
Attack ⑧:
An aggressive forward rush delivers eight slashes. Guard or dodge the full sequence.
Despite being only partly consumed by chaos, Elamein dies after the fight. The cinematic ends the chapter.
