Secrets[edit]

  1. Head north from the portals, then head all the way to the northeast part of the ice, collecting a Chest Key. (sector 61)
  2. At the east side with the crates and barrels, open a banner at the east end to find Discs of Repulsion and mace spheres. (sector 283)
  3. Open the east banner in Secret #2 and take the teleporter to get a Flame Mask and an inferno orb. (sector 285)
  4. Head north from the area with crates and barrels to the room with the Justifier. In the next room, a switch is on the wooden pole at the north end, which opens the east wall containing Soul Cubes, a Flame Shield, and a Blaze Orb. There are two slots here where you can place Flame Masks, which will melt the ice around the level. (sector 164)
  5. Take the door west of the room with the Justifier, then head north and jump across to the north. Use the switch, then quickly drop down and enter the teleporter. You will be facing northeast, directly towards a lift that has lowered. Run to it and ride up, then use the switch to the left. After you do this, take the teleporter to the southeast and you can get the Flame Mask to the east. (sector 294)
  6. After melting the ice, head to the northwest tunnel and west to an Elixir Vitae, Soul Mana, and a Dark Heart. (sector 114)
