Complete Taimhotep's Song in assassins creed origins: get a fertility talisman, collect bird bits, and clear bandits.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First, go to the market to pick up a fertility talisman. Use Senu to mark your target. The destination is southeast of the great temple complex, in the market where Reda the Nomad is usually found. You will instead descend into a tomb where the merchant has her shop.
  2. 2
    After speaking with the merchant, use your Animus Pulse to highlight objects and examine them. Turn north and search behind a white curtain to find a palette. Push the palette back to reveal a hidden chamber containing the merchant’s better goods.
  3. 3
    Loot a satchel on the ground, then grab the blue fertility talisman.
  4. 4
    Exit the shop, fighting your way through three guards (level 22).
  5. 5
    Next, you must acquire rare bird bits: two flamingo tongues and two heron feathers. This means killing two of each bird and collecting their corpses. Senu is not useful for finding these crafting materials.
  6. 6
    Both herons and flamingos can be found in the waters around Memphis. Herons are usually swimming on the surface, while flamingos wade near the shore.
  7. 7
    Herons often congregate in the water below the optional fast travel point northeast of the Memphis fast travel point. Travel there and aim at the water.
  8. 8
    Flamingos can be found nearby, along the northeastern end of the same island as the fast travel point.
  9. 9
    Obtain the required corpses and return to Taimhotep, who is resting near a stable by a canal outside of Memphis, northwest of the great temple.
  10. 10
    Talk to Taimhotep. She will inform you that the ritual must be performed at the Tomb of Djoser, in secret. She will travel light and off the main roads.
  11. 11
    Summon your mount and follow her into the Saqqara Nome. You will pass through the Per Our Hideout point of interest.
  12. 12
    These ruins are southeast of the Tomb of Djoser and are littered with bandits (levels 22-23). Clear out the area. The bandits will likely attack in two groups of three.
  13. 13
    Along the eastern wall surrounding the ruins, find a red chest. Looting it will complete the area’s location objectives.
  14. 14
    Reunite with Taimhotep and follow her to the ritual site.
  15. 15
    After Bayek monologues, the quest ends.
Tips
  • To find herons, travel to the optional fast travel point northeast of the Memphis fast travel point and look down at the water.
  • Flamingos can be found on the northeastern end of the island containing the same fast travel point.
  • You can clear out the bandits at Per Our Hideout while Taimhotep waits.
  • The next main story quest is “The Crocodile’s Scales,” which requires traveling through the Saqqara Nome into Faiyum, specifically to Karanis on the northern coast of Lake Moeris.
