 Athens Town Square

There's people running around like crazy here and you know what that means,
free health whenever you want and that's good because your about to face off
against the cyclops, a new type of enemy. This whole section is extremely
frustrating for one reason and one reason only, but I'll get to that in a
minute. To defeat the cyclops simply stick with square button attacks and
dodge their attacks with the R3 stick rather than trying to block them. Once
enough damage has been done the circle icon appears and allows you to smash
their face on the ground, it's not an instant kill but it does good damage.
The frustrating thing is that half the time you're actually trying to do this
you're going to end up grabbing some stupid townsperson instead and miss a
perfectly good opportunity, it's annoying as hell but at least it makes me
feel less bad about picking them off for health. Kill all the enemies here.
Take the hallway at the upper left side of the town square and follow it to a
nice wide open room with pretty reflecting floors. In this room there are
three wall panels you can break open to reveal an urn, a chest with blue orbs
and a chest with a Gorgon Eye inside. Climb to the top of the stairs and open
the chest with green orbs inside. Jump across the gap and follow the woman up
the stairs for a scene. (Incidentally if you drop down where you jumped the
gap you can find some objects to break for red orbs and a magic green/blue orb
treasure chest.) There's a save point at the top here and if you jump left
you'll find a chest with a Phoenix Feather inside. Drop down where the lady
fell and examine her body to get a Key. Now climb all the way back up to
where you just dropped from. On your way there you'll find a bunch of enemies
with special yellow shields, these shield can be broken by doing a couple of
normal square attacks followed by a triangle attack. Jump to the right of the
save point and use the key to unlock the trap door. Tap the R2 button to open
it and jump down inside. Use the save point here and follow the tunnel along
until you reach a gate. Open it by tapping the R2 and climb the stairs.
