Aura: Fate of the Ages - Walkthrough - The Gamers Temple

2.3.4 - Drum Puzzle
===================

Hints:
You have to get rid of the spearwomen first (see above), and check the area
they were guarding.  Colors are important.

Objects required:
None.

Explanation:
See the crystal in the area the spearwomen were guarding?  It has four
different sides, each with a different colored stone underneath (these
represent the drums by the teleporter).  They each have four circles that
can be clicked, making a specific noise.  Thankfully they all make the SAME
noise.

Go to the drums and click each one.  Some of them make that same noise as
the crystal.  Write down the position of the ones that do, and their color.

Now go to the crystal and switch on the circles which represent the drums
which make the same noise.

Solution:
If you made a chart of which drums made the same noise as the crystal, it
would look like this (O being the correct noise, X being a different noise):

x  o  o  x
x  o  x  o
o  x  x  x
o  x  x  x
B  G  Y  R
l  r  e  e
u  e  l  d
e  e  l
   n  o
      w

So, go to the part of the crystal that has the blue stone underneath it, and
switch on (so that there's a symbol visible in them) the bottom two circles.
Go to the green section and press the top two.  Go to the yellow section and
press the top one.  Go to the red section and press the second from the top.

When done correctly, you'll get the symbol of the magical world.

Ok, so it's really a crystal puzzle, but it made more sense to list it this
way so people who were stuck near the drums could find this spot in the
index.

----------------------------------------------

Leave.  There's the other side of the crystal meadow leads right to the
beginning of this entire area.  Set the machine to the forth setting, and
enter the door.

You'll be in an underground cavern.  Take the first left into a room.  On
the left side, get the magical pyramid from the table (looks like an
obelisk, not a pyramid).  On the right side, there's a bowl with a yellow
glowing fang you should also take.

Go out of the room the way you came, and continue left down the path.  Along
the path, the glowing fangs are being used as lamps.  Take them as you
follow it.  First pink, then green, then red, and finally blue.  At the end,
you'll find a puzzle.  NOTE:  Do not try to go behind this pedestal before
you solve it.  The game may crash.  Thanks to Gretchen Williams for this.
