The Second Ruins

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

Walkthrough
Head down the stairs to the right. Move through the corridor into the open room, and climb down the edge of the balcony to get to the lower level. Let Trico take down the enemies. Hop onto Trico's back and wait to jump onto the platform across this area. When you're at the new platform, move forward and follow the path around. Take the broken stairs to the bottom, and let Trico deal with these enemies as well, remembering to console him after each time he fights.

Look for the ladder in the next area down the cooridor, off to the right. Climb the ladder and go down this path. Move ahead, then pass under the gate. Trico will be trapped.

Head up the stairs on the left and throw the switch. A suit of armor will awaken, and running away will trigger more. Ignore them, pressing square to roll by, and climb the ladder to the right. Follow this path and then throw the switch at the end to release Trico. Drop down and push forward, and let Trico take care of the enemies here. Calm down Trico, who's probably freaking out at this point.

Hop onto his back, and pet its neck, then look for the gate to the left of the room. Learn some more control commands here. Get back on his back, and tell it to jump onto the next platform. Climb down onto the walkway, and go throw the switch to unlock the gate. Return to the main area, and climb onto Trico's back. Tell it to jump the gap.

Jump again and it will stand against the wall to your left. Hop to the platform, climb up the ladder, and follow this path around to the end of a ledge. Grab the handhold above you, and go into the open hole.
