Find answers in a cave | Day 3 Alpha Polaris Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

After a short cutscene your character will stand at the entrance to a cave. Go inside - unfortunately it turns out that that there is terrible dark inside. Although there is ceramic pot, which can be used to set fire in it but first you need any fuel.

Go outside the cave and use a winch remote to lower down the probe. Click it again to pull up the probe.

Now use the multitool and detach an oil container from the probe. Go inside the cave.

Use an oil container to fill a pot with oil and set fire with a lighter. Head to another pot (on the right) and do the same as previously.

Take a look at mummified corpse at the screen bottom. Then go further inside a cave, which is tunnel on the right.

Use previous method to set fire in a pot on the left. Take a look at icy seat in the cave centre and bones to the left.

Return to previous cave and examine symbols visible on the central wall (mural). In the upper part of it there are cartouche symbols identical with ones on the hide found by Al. Under them there are four more symbols, one above the other. Take closer look at them - same as with symbols on the hide you must properly name them.

As a clue you can use second article from Nova (The Witiko/Ashten Myth), which can be found in your notebook. Zoom in (LMB) and read it. Check photo of shaman.

Take a look at first symbol on the wall (at the bottom). It looks like a humanoid known from the cartouche symbol, but its head is a little bit different, as it was decorated in some way. Notice feathers on shaman's head from the photo. Yes - a drawing marked as Symbol I is SHAMAN. Enter this answer in proper field and click: Suggest.

A Symbol II reminds Rune of a diamond. You should therefore associate it with an icy throne you've seen few moments ago. So enter THRONE and click: Suggest.

A Symbol III looks like two shapes on top of each other. A lower one looks like the Northern Lights (from the first article). An upper shape looks a little bit like plains from the first sequence of symbols in the first article. So it must define a place. By reading the second article you can learn, that there is a plain behind the Northern Lights where Witiko resides. This place is BOREAS. So enter your answer and click: Suggest.

The last symbol (IV) looks like a mutilated corpse. From the second article you know that WITIKO (ASHTEN) is deformed, without legs and arms. So enter one of these two names and click: Suggest.
