1 | Cross Pillars as a Ray, Supply Power as an Eel

Head down from the start. Pass the right pillar as a ray and start the generator with the eel beyond. Use a possessable switch to let your body through, then power the light and upper wiring in order in the next room, too.

2 | Put a Crab on the Lift First

Walk beneath belt spikes as a crab and destroy them to let your body through. In the next room, leave the upper-right crab on the lift and use another crab for the belt spikes.

  1. Pass the right pillar, spikes, machine, and fan as a ray.
  2. Press the upper switch.
  3. Press the switch beneath the lift with your body or a fish.
  4. Destroy the right fan with the crab carried upward.

3 | From the Upper-Left Diver to the Crane

Use the right switch to operate the fan and upper door, then ride the lift upstairs. Possess the third diver at the far left. Possess the crane above-right and drop a crab through the hole to destroy the fan, opening your body's route to the boss.

4 | Power Left and Right Generators in Quick Succession

Enter the spaces beneath either side of the boss as a ray and cut cables with fanged fish. Place your body near one generator, then possess the opposite eel through another fish.

  1. Activate the generator with the opposite eel.
  2. End possession and immediately return to your body.
  3. Use the eel near your body to activate the other generator.
  4. When both operate, discharge electricity into the leg joints.
  5. Follow and possess the boss after it falls beneath the fan.

5 | Left Entrance After Victory

Return to the machine, swim left, and activate the next emblem. The generators reset if too much time passes between activations, so use a possession chain with your body nearby rather than traveling across afterward.
