Explore Alexandria's key locations in Assassin's Creed Origins! Find Papyrus Puzzles at the Iseion and Great Synagogue, and solve the 'Deafening Silence' riddle.
Alright, let's dive into Alexandria and uncover some of its hidden gems. We'll be looking for a couple of specific spots that hold some neat rewards, including Papyrus Puzzle scrolls.
First up is the Iseion. You'll want to head to the big island on the northern side of Alexandria, pretty much directly west of the Pharos lighthouse. Once you're there, make your way to the back, specifically the northeastern end of the temple. Look around on a table – you should find the Papyrus Puzzle Scroll called “Deafening Silence.”
Now, since you've got the “Deafening Silence” scroll, let's tackle it. The riddle says: “Alexandria is large and noisy, but one part is quiet, lonely and surrounded by water. The fallen palm tree points to where I lay, where land meets water.”
To solve this, head southeast from the Iseion until you reach a stone dock. From that dock, turn east, then southeast. You'll see a small island in the middle of the harbor. Swim over to it and check out the western side. Look for a fallen palm tree – just like the riddle mentioned. Follow the direction the top of the tree is pointing, head downhill towards the water, and search the beach. Your treasure should be waiting for you there.
Next, we're heading to the Great Synagogue. If you've fast-traveled to Alexandria, make your way east along the main road. You'll find the Great Synagogue to the north. What you want to do is circle around the building to the courtyard on its northern side. There, on a table, you'll find another Papyrus Puzzle Scroll, this one called “Nature’s Way.” You can save solving this one for later if you like, maybe after you've dealt with the points of interest in the Kanopos Nome.
