The Architects Tomb

Some rather unpleasant platform jumping awaits you here, jump between the
moving platforms and the deadly saw blades to reach the other side. Head to
the right side and open the gate using the R2 button. Fight your way up to
the outdoor area again and defeat the cyclops here as well as all the
cerberuses. Be absolutely sure to defeat them before they grow, that ins't
exactly pleasant when it happens. There are three ladders here, climb the one
on the side that isn't broken and smash the door at the top to find a
multicoloured chest and a Phoenix Feather. Next drop down and climb up the
one in the middle and turn the lever so that the crane's weight's shadow is
over the cracked ground. There's a lever at the end of the crane so go and
pull it to smash the ground. Lift it up again using the lever and turn to
crane so that the shadow is over the button on the other side, drop the weight
down on the button and then jump off the edge so you're on the ground again.
Grab the statue in the back left corner and kick it all the way over to the
other side, drop it down the no broken pit and set it on top of the other
button. Only one more to go. This one is located back across where you came
from, all you have to do is stand on it by yourself for a second to unlock the
door. You've got to be quick though, it doesn't say open forever. When you
get in there go around to the opposite side of the table and rip the head off
the corpse. In the next area you'll find a save point and two red orbs chests
on the right side. Enter the structure then descend the spiral stairs to
reach a large room with moving conveyer belts. Enemies attack you when you
enter this room and you cannot leave until all of them are dead so equip the
Blades of Chaos for the harpies and the Blade of Artmeis for the archers and
go at it. Take out all the archers and ones that respawn first and from there
go into an all out harpy-hunt. Here's a fun scientific fact, they actually
had to declare "one bajillion" a real discrete value after seeing how many
stupid damn harpies respawned in this room. Just keep fighting and fighting.
Following the battle open the door and pull the handle on the large sphere in
the middle. Examine the box and then ride the elevator down. Drag the box
off the elevator and then push the box out the main door and watch the scene.
