Beta Engine Sector

Corak's Notes

Foerdhal the Erudite once came here to uncover the rumoured secrets of these strange halls. But as he learned, the Sleepers of Sheltem sought to possess a mortal form once more. Crowding together into Foerdhal's mind, they drove him mad — and in his rampage he destroyed much of this underworld. Four King's Ultimate Power Orbs lie hidden here, guarded by Sheltem's merciless robots.

Beta Engine Sector is in area F1 — Mutant Mountains at X4 Y9. Transport tubes lead from here to Main Engine Sector and back to Alpha Engine Sector.

Four King's Ultimate Power Orbs (points 2–5) lie in four chambers of the sector, each guarded by ED-409 and Guardians.

The two northern chambers hold Sleepers who once met Zealot, King Righteous, and Malefactor, King Malicious — entities similar to Tumult in the Alpha Engine Sector. Their knowledge offers clues to the game's puzzles. The two southern chambers contain passcodes needed to activate transport tubes.

The corridor alcove crystals (point 7) work the same way as in the Alpha Engine Sector — touching them ages a character. Do not touch anything in the corridors except the crystal receptacles of the Sleepers.
