Blue Smoke

This page is part of the walkthrough for The Last Guardian.

Walkthrough
Now that you're on the other side of the bridge, Trico will be drawn to a building with blue smoke. You need to cut this off to get his attention and move forward. Head into the building, and move the pot to the center position. Go back outside, and climb up Trico once his head is jammed into the doorway.

Jump to the edge of the building off of Trico's back, and climb the vines up. Drop into the hole, and then shove using the square button to close the lid.

Trico will now pay attention to you rather than the smoke. Head outside, and turn to run through the door on the opposite side of where you first entered. The area is super thin, but you can still move forward. Head back through the doorway once Trico has hopped the pillars, and grab onto his tail. He'll hop into the next corridor.

Here, Trico will be drawn to a small body of water. Jump off, and watch him roll around. When you hear Trico growl, you'll see another Trico way above you. Calm him down, and head into the open cave across the platform.

Wait for Trico to follow, then climb up the rubble on the right - jump to the middle pillar, wait for Trico to jump on top, then grab his tail and climb to his back. Get to the higher platform, grab the barrel from the alcove, and toss it to Trico. Jump across the gap in the wooden bridge to get to the other side, and follow it around to a set of stairs leading to the earlier gate that blocked your way. Throw the switch next to it, and move forward.
