Distant Memory

**Distant Memory** is one of the Mystery Ylands found in the Tropical Rainforest region, it costs 35 Exploration Points to unlock. Once unlocked it can be visited any amount of times or reset to be able to replay it again (it will cost 35 points to unlock it each subsequent reset). It was added in Update 1.7: Marvelous Mysteries. The main objective of this Yland is to find a way into the ancient temple and then conquer the trials to reach the mystery in the center of the temple.

## Finding a way into the temple

On the East side of the Yland can be seen a large temple atop the hill. If you have one, you will soon find out that use of Propeller Packs is forbidden here and the trip up has to be done by foot. Once reaching the base of the temple a couple of Stone Guardians will attack, they are highly resistant to ranged attacks so use a good melee weapon to deal to them. It is quite a hike up the temple stairs just to find that the entrance is blocked off but at least there is a good view from up there. Back down at the base of the temple is a round well in the centre between the stone buildings. Smash the sticks and grass covering it up to find a ladder down into it. Use the ladder or jump straight in and land in the water below.

## The Tomb

The path to the right is blocked off but the path ahead to the tomb is clear. Walking in sets off an ambush and a gate closes off the exit. Two Stone Guardians and a Wendigo rush out of the crypts either side of the tomb and attack. The Wendigo is highly resistant to Energy weapons but the most vulnerable to Fire. Once they are dealt to head into the middle chamber to find a golden dial with a button. Pressing this opens the gate back out as well as the gate that was blocking the other path. Just next to the tomb exit is a chest up on a ledge that can be accessed by jumping up on some small stone protrusions.

## Jet Parkour

In this room there is several tall rocks in a pond and jets blowing across them from the wall. These jets will knock the player over so they must be avoided. This obstacle is much easier without wearing heavy armor so take any off for now. There is a locked Native Chest on the right wall. The red key can be found in the water in a cave under the rocks, there are entrance holes at either end of the room. Climb back up the ladder at the beginning and jump over the first two rocks and up onto the wall to reach the chest.

To get across the room time the jumps carefully, immediately jump onto each rock after the jet stops and then proceed hopping from rock to rock. This can be done without sprinting. In the room at the end is a button to open the next room and shut off the jets.

## Boulder Dodge

The next room is just a tunnel with several large boulders rolling back and forth, they are extremely deadly. Time the gaps and sprint through as soon as the boulder passes. Once through, activate the button to open the next gate.

## Dart Run

This room is a long hallway that has several rows of dart shooters periodically shooting. There are a few alcoves in the walls that can be used to avoid each wave of darts. Sprint from alcove to alcove while avoiding the darts and the odd spikes stabbing down from the ceiling. Once at the end, activate the button to progress to the next area.

## Pillar Climb

There are a couple more Stone Guardians to deal with first in this room. The 6 pillars have small ledges that can be climbed on and rotated, use these to make the way up to the top platform. Having no heavy armor on really helps here as well and it can be completed without needing to sprint. There is a button on the back wall which can be used to reset the ledges back to their start positions. Before heading up, there is a small statue holding a blue key close to the entrance. Climb up to it from the pillars and grab it, the chest is in the following area. The quickest way up is to jump on the first ledge on the back-right pillar, turning to face the front-right pillar and jumping onto that ledge, then face left towards the front-middle pillar and jump up to the ledge that's pointing in towards the centre, then turn back to front-right pillar and hop up to the ledge facing the current pillar, next jump back to the front-middle pillar, then back again to the front-right, then back over to the rear-right pillar, then onto the rear-middle pillar, and finally onto the top platform. Activating the button will make the floor collapse, sending the player down into an underwater tunnel.

## Underwater Tunnel

Get some air and then dive under the water and follow the tunnel. This is easier without heavy armor weighing you down too. Continue swimming and keep an eye out for a hole in the left wall just below an air pocket between tunnels. Dive into the secret opening and turn left, following the tunnel until it opens up into a cave. Here there is the chest which the blue key opens. There is also a cat statue with 3x Cat Food on the ground nearby. Swim back to the main tunnel and continue on until you swim up and out into the large central temple chamber.

## Main Chamber

Climb up and out of the water and across to the centre where the orbs are circling. Interacting with the Ancient Star Chart will complete the Mystery Yland and unlock the chest next to it.

## Escape

Climb up to the supports above and interact with the rope hanging from the ceiling to escape the temple. Now the access at the top of the temple is open and the player can use their propeller pack again.
