Farah’s staring at me like ‘what is your problem’? Uh, well…Many things, many things.

Anyway, we are…oh, great, spike pit. Why is there a spike pit just in the middle of the library?

(sound of Farah freaking out) Oh, right, this is not the one you stab, sorry. I totally thought this is the sand you stab, but this is the sand you don’t stab.

Also, I kind of was not…I totally did not hear when and why she called us her love, so I’m a little confused. Like, I knew there was some attraction there, but given the movie she’s also planning to steal our stuff, and/or shoot us in the back because, y’know, why not?

You know what? (breaks stools) These are dangerous, Farah, do not question me. If not for them I could have maybe survived better.

Hey, crack you can go through. Here’s a crack. I’ll go. [Farah] Yeah, you do that, whatever.

She said ‘my love’. I know she did. [Prince] Yes, she did. I know I didn’t dream it. [Prince] No. (I sound so bored there!) At least, I think I didn’t. [Prince] No, it was real. It’s quite natural, really. Her kingdom’s conquered; she has nothing, no one to protect her…she needs me. I can see it in the way she looks at me. All I have to do is reach out and take her hand and she’d be mine. [Prince] (Careful there, you’re starting to sound like Gollum.) Why am I talking to myself? [Prince] I’m up here! [Farah] *laughs* (cannot make it out over the laughter) But no, you’re not just talking to yourself, Prince. You’re also talking to me.

Also, this is reminding me of the Moria mirror puzzle, which is amazing because I love that. Okay, it can be a bit annoying, but…

Oh, wall I have to break! Let me use my (goes into accent) Breakwall to do so.

(normal voice) I love how she’s just sitting there going “I’m right here. I can hear everything you’re saying.”

So that is probably around where it has to be, it’s this one that has to be moved slightly. Just at a guess. And once that hits you…there we go.

That’s the Sands of Time loading screen thingie. Okay, so that’s not quite right, let’s move that back slightly—and it lit up yellow! Like it does!

You did it! [Farah] Yeah, ‘pparently I did. Now what.

Oh hey, even more special Breakwall sword, what. Why—why do I need this? What purpose does it serve?

Oh, hey, Sand. Might as well.

Wait, how do I get up there? What? What? Oh, hey, ladder. (Is it a stepladder though?) It’s probably the ladder. What? Wait, what?? Why is there a ladder? Can I move the ladder? No. I cannot move the ladder. Why is there a ladder here?

Can I read all the books? (Is the Prince even literate?)

We’re not going to talk about you breaking that with your feet again.

What?? I honestly don’t know what I’m doing.

There’s a tapestry over there but that doesn’t help me. (unlike in future games? I remember Two Thrones you can use one to go down)

Farah, am I supposed to be asking you to do something? Am I supposed to run up to this door I can’t get in and you’re like “I can do that”…no?

*chuckles* I can’t run over this rubble, but I can dodge-roll!

Oh. I have to Walk Like an Egyptian. What?

Oh, that’s not actually a—what? What am I doing up here? Should I jump over there? No. And apparently that also kills me.

Maybe I come over here and jump sideways…apparently that’s it, yes. Not that way, Prince, that’ll kill you.

How did I do this in the vision?

Also don’t do that, that’ll also kill you, obviously.

Oh, wallrun. Always trust the wallrun. Always. Seriously, Prince, we were fools for not trusting the wallrun.

There’s something odd about that. [Farah] There’s something odd about everything.

That’s the same symbol that was on the pillar! [Farah] Stay there! I’ll come to you! [Prince] You say that, but…what’s this do? It’s no use moving the mirror; there’s no light beam. [Farah] I can see that. [Prince] I know, I’m just curious. Sheesh. Can I not check things out of my own curiosity?

What? Oh.

Can you stop doing that and actually jump? There we go.

What do we do from here? Wallrun? Wallrun. Always trust the wallrun.

I don’t like the sound of that.

Oh. Camera, Camera. Thank you.

I am starting to get a little freaked out about the height we’re at. I don’t know about you, Prince. (I have a fear of heights stemming from falling off a height when I was little. It’s a thing.)

Well, that’s a great—lovely. (Bats.) Don’t worry about me, Princess, there’s just evil bats around me that will knock me off if given the chance.

Okay. I can’t quite tell what we’re supposed to do from here. Ohhh, boy.

That was not a wallrun Prince. *laughs in fear*

What am I supposed to do with this? Am I supposed to do anything? Do I smack you? *sound of sword* No. Course it would be a really bad thing if I could but—

Farah, that wall made the healing noise when I broke it. What. Legit, what?

Oh, hey. I know this sound. You know, seriously, why were these things in the other area? (The glowy otherworldly blue tapestries.) The really broken area? That’s what I want to know.

Also, Farah, Princess, I don’t mean to alarm you, but…I’m being possessed.

O-kay, what am I supposed to do from here? I can’t push this, I can’t break it, I can’t turn it…

Oh, I’m supposed to go back through the lovely sawblades of death—which I timed improperly…there we go.

Oh, here’s more sun. Er, moon.

What time do it be? I see.

The Mirror-Halls of Lumul-nar. Honestly after all the rest of this stuff, the Mirror-Halls of Lumul-nar is a really nice place to be. Oh my word. Please be able to jump—thank you. And this mirror even looks like…(the ones from the Mirror-Halls).

(Seriously, if you haven’t checked out that dungeon in LOTRO, do it. It’s fun. Also another comparison I guess I could make is to the first Mummy movie with Brendan Fraser.)
