PrinceWatercress plays Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver - Part 13 of 28


In this entry, our adventure takes us into Rahab's domain.


When you're done looking around in the crypt, phase out into the spiritual realm. The floor will lower, and you'll be able to continue on. There will be a portal where you can phase back into the material realm, and when you do, you'll face one of Kain's henchmen. You'll need to run around with the Soul Reaver and slash about at him, and when he's stunned, pick him up and throw him in the water. You'll be able to compress and manipulate space and shoot an orb of kinetic energy at things to hit them. From here, find the block with the circles on it, then face it and press Triangle to shoot at it. You'll push it out of the way.

4:50 - From here, you'll have to go through where the block was and go through the water. From here, you'll be going in and out of water and going between the two realms before doing some platforming in the material realm. There's a door on the other side, and you'll want to go through it.

7:20 - One of the paths leads to a window depicting an armored warrior riding a hawk (or something). The other path leads to a gate you'll need to phase through. Take out the two wraiths, then get ready for some puzzle solving. 

9:13 - Once you're in the material realm, get rid of the two goat-men. From here, you'll want to face the statue in the cage and push it towards the solid wall so you can high jump to another path. Go down the path and go back to the material realm, and continue down the path. There will soon be a fork in the road, and you'll want to take the path with the gate you can phase through. 

12:08 - You'll be in a more open area drenched in water, and at the surface is a boat. You won't be able to surface yet, so go across the bottom and follow the path. You'll soon be able to head back to the material realm.

13:37 - From here, glide to the ship, then phase back into the spiritual realm while on the boat. The boat will change shape to allow you onto a ledge, and you'll soon find another portal leading to the material realm. Look around for the teleporter room door, then go through it and activate the teleporter. You'll want to activate it so you don't have to go through this again.

15:23 - Go through the wooden door across from the teleporter room, then open the door that blocks your path with your energy projectile. You'll soon be introduced to the watery world of Rahab courtesy of the Elder God. Not surprisingly, Rahab and his brethren have become immune to water's effects on vampires and have now become vampiric sea serpents that can swim.

16:29 - Be ready to glide from platform to platform without touching the water. The sea serpents don't take a lot of damage if you run circles around them while slashing the Soul Reaver about, but they can spit projectiles at you and keep you from using the Soul Reaver, and it can be a bit maddening.

  1. IIRC, you can smash the glass window with the warrior as you have the force projectile. Or maybe you can't. It was certainly a lovely window.
