Quests » Found True Beauty › The Ancient Greece
The longest part of the quest starts now. You'll have to travel through some iconic places of the Antic Greece, all around the Western Turkey and Modern Greece.
According to Schliemann's work, Çanakkale would be the location of the Antic Troy, and trying to use Agamemnon's Invasion Plans there will confirm this theory, but you'll realise that if you try to use them there, there'll be something missing in your inventory.
If you remember the notes drawn by Schliemann on the Agamemnon's Invasion Plans, arriving to Troy through boat is crucial. On the map below, we can see that there are two ways to arrive in Çanakkale: Gytheio and Nápfolio. But only Nápfolio will take you in a one-way trip. The quest forces you to go up there, for a good reason: to find the special item required to use the invasion plans, which is located at the North of Nápfolio, in Mycenae, where Helen used to live before leaving her husband Agamemnon.
The map below will help you adding some context to your journey.
You can see that you can go to Greece either from Istanbul or Izmir, but things will be quite longer if you use the gate located at Istanbul.
Your first move is to land in Izmir and go to the countryside Belkahve (ID 782567) and take the pathway (Asphalt) to the harbour of Urla.
Traveling to Urla
- Travel time: ≈1 hour(s) and 30 minutes
Urla
Once arrived in Urla, you can take a ferry to Greece or to Çanakkale, or either go back to Izmir.
Çanakkale is a province widely known for hosting the ruins of the antic city of Troy, but even if it will be your final destination in this part of the quest, you should better take the ferry to Greece as there's a mandatory item there to be able to continue once in Çanakkale.
Traveling to Gytheio
- Travel time: ≈6 hour(s)
Gytheio
After a long crossing, you arrive in the Peloponnese, in the former seaport of Sparta. According to legend, it's not far from here that queen Helen would have spent her first night with prince Paris before departing for Troy. This event sparked things off and was the reason why the Trojan War started.
You should now take the pathway (Gravel) to the North to reach Sparta.
Traveling to Sparta
- Travel time: ≈2 hour(s)
Sparta
Once in Sparta, head to the North by using the Pathway (Asphalt) in order to reach Tripoli. You can also investigate the pit but you won't find anything interesting and will just stare down into this pit that seems to go on forever into the darkness. Not really relevant, but as they say: THIS! IS! SPARTA!
There's no point to go to the West. This pathway leads to Kalamata, which has absolutely no interest in your quest, except allowing you to go back to Gytheio on a ferry — quite useless indeed.
Traveling to Tripoli
- Travel time: ≈2 hour(s)
Tripoli
Once in Tripoli, use the pathway (Gravel) to the East to reach Nafplio.
Going South would bring you back to Sparta and going South-West would bring you to Kalamata.
Traveling to Nafplio
- Travel time: ≈1 hour(s) and 30 minutes
Náfplio
Once in Nafplio, use the pathway (Grass) to the North in order to reach Mycenae.
It's important not to use the ferry to Çanakkale for now, as you won't be able to make the return trip as going to Greece from there would bring you to Gytheio!
Traveling to Mycenae
- Travel time: ≈1 hour(s)
Mycenae
As you arrive to Mycenae, you can notice a huge white statue (Marble) Statue of Agamemnon. Investigate it to find a new key item — this action can be done only once every 4 days.
