Continuing from the Wak-Wak tree we stopped at last time, go to the left, and jump up on the platform. You have to engage the Shadow of the Simurghโ€™s powers here now. First, crystalize your position when the spike roller moves to the left and run back out of range of the roller.

Now return to this mark, when the roller moves to the right.

Keep running to the left, past the platforms and grab on to the wall hold switch and as it dropping jump up and crystalize your position above the platform that drops when you pull the switch down. Once the platform drops below your crystalized position, teleport over there to stand on top of the platform.

Go to the right and through the two rollers and wall jump off and dash to the left and grab the hand hold and jump up and to the platform on the right to exit the area. In the next area pull the lever to call down an elevator. Fariba is below the elevator and the way to get to her is to crystalize your location as soon you get on the elevator.

As the elevator rises and the lower part of the elevator passes your crystalized from, teleport over there.

Drop down and you will find Fariba down there. She will give you the map for the Depths. If you move to the right and stand on the pressure plate, the door will open. In the next room, jump up the handholds and air dash between the gaps to get up and you will hear a Moon Gatherer yelling. There is also a Xerxes coin here. Standing on the edge of the platform, grab the first handhold, drop down and air dash for the second hand hold, do the same thing for the third.

Drop down and air dash to the hand hold switch now and hold on to it to drop the water level down, and once the water has gone down jump on to the pole to swing up to get the Xerxes coin โ€“ which will follow you around till you complete the traversal puzzle.

Jump over to the other poles till you reach the next hand hold switch and hold on to it to drop the water level even further and retract the spinning blades.

Swing to the right now and you will find a landing spot. The Moon gatherer will roll out of a covered sewer opening. He will leave a bunch of time crystals and disappear. Make your way to the top the same way we came down. Go past the spinning blades and jump to the top where we stood on the pressure plate before.

Use the lever to call the elevator down. Go inside the elevator but as its going up crystalize your position here โ€“

When the roof of the elevator now is below your crystalized form, move your body over there.

Now take the elevator up again. You can now access two tunnels on either side. Go to the left first.

Drop down and airdash your way across to find a Sand Vial at the bottom. Location on the map below –

Jump up on to the sliding hand hold switch and pull it to open the retractable platform up and air dash over to it and make your way out of here, back to the top. Head up from there.

In the next area, just dash through to the other side โ€“ you will have to jump air dash up the ramp at the far end, then make your way back to the right and towards the top to find Lore Item: Persian Childernโ€™s Playtime Verse.

Exit the area to the left after.  In the next area, keep moving left and there is an enemy that you canโ€™t hit head on, so use Shadow of the Simurgh to get behind him when he rushes you.

Go to the left and drop down to find 200 Time Crystals in a chest below. Now make your way back to the elevator where we came from and head right from there.

Keep moving to the right till you reach this location in the picture below and hit the switch to drop the bottom spikes away.

Grab on to the wall and move down with it. Crystalize your position as in the picture below and move back up and hit the switch.
