Zone 1: Temple of Namira, Portal of Ancestors

When you enter this area, you'll find Sayjid trying in vain to open a large door. The door is a fake - you have to go through a small arch opposite and undergo the Trial, which is four passages that open in turn; all you have to do is hit the button at the end of each to open the next, while avoiding the traps. When you complete the Trial, another door out in the main hall will open; go through here and down the stairs to the next zone, Temple of Namira, Hall of the Priestess. If you speak with Sayjid after completing the Trial, he will join you as a companion.

Occupants: Sayjid

Zone 2: Temple of Namira, Hall of the Priestess

The door to this zone opens into a huge room. Go straight across and up the stairs, where you'll encounter the Priestess of Namira. After the cutscene, take the Blade of Namira. In order to get out, you have to go through one of the gates down below (either one; they lead to the same passage) and follow it until you find a statue of Namira that can be activated. Push it, and it opens a secret door in the southwest corner of the large room. Go through the door in the room beyond.

Zone 2: Temple of Namira, Path of the Lost

The door to this zone leads to a long passage. Follow it until you come to a three-way intersection; turn right and go DOWN the stairs. At the bottom, you'll reach a four-way intersection; turn left and follow the passage until you reach a three-way. Turn left and follow this until you reach another four-way with a zombie; turn right here and go up the stairs, where you'll find a door and a lever. Pull the lever to reveal a rough stone tunnel, which leads up to a fort ruin room with a ladder out. Before using the ladder, read the scroll lying beside the whistling skull in this room.
