Q : What should I do inside this moth's nest ?
A : You have to cut down the statue's body that hanging with the rope. Take the heater from the wall. Use it with the moths on the floor. It will move several of them away and reveal a manhole. Hit the larva's houses on the left wall. Inside one of those places you'll find an insect manable. This tool is sharp enough to cut loose the rope. Open the manhole. Change your shape to Sarah and climb down. Above the nest, use the manable to cut the rope. Get back again to the nest and take the angel's body.

Q : How could I get across this spider web ?
A : Change your shape into Sarah and get across the web.

Q : What should I do to move the big head statue ?
A : Look at those tiles on the floor. Change your shape into Olmec and step on the tile in this order (I name the tiles from left to right as 1 -5): 2,5,3,1,4. Then change your shape again into Grimwall and push the big head statue. A beautiful crystallized pedestal will be raised up.

Q : How could I break this crystallized pedestal ?
A : This is a little bit gross but you have to dit anyway. You have to push down all the bodies on the spear (Yuck !). Notice how the blood spill out through the holes on the side wall of the cliff. After you push down the last body, the crystall will be break. Get the statue's left wing.

Q : How could I open the locked gate ?
A : Put all the statue's pieces together one by one to form the angel shape. The gate will be automatically open.

Author's Note : At the end of this chapter you learn how Morgan is trying to kill you by a car accident.

MORGAN'S LAST GAME

Main Goals : Step out from this dream into reality

Q : How could I solve Morgan's last puzzle ?
A : This is a timely puzzle. Act quickly to defeat your shadow. The key is to get the globe on the statue (there are 3 globes in total). Find a way to go there and avoid the slimy black oil.

Author's Final Note : This is the most serious adventure game this year. The story wrap up in a good ending at the end. Despite of the inconveniency for the movement control ('cause sometimes your mouse could be freezed at the corner and your system is crashed), the graphics are well done. Morgan's carrier will be ended in a dramatic way. And Max will be living happily ever after with his family, is it .........

EASTER EGGS
