Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Speak with Nanefer west-southwest of the Vault of Splendors to learn about the Curse of Wadjet.
  2. 2
    Head to the villa in the northeastern corner of the city.
  3. 3
    At the investigation area, use your Animus Pulse and examine the two corpses (man and reptile), an urn with a cobra, and an Egyptian man cleaning blood.
  4. 4
    Listen to the Egyptian man, who mentions a temple to Wadjet in a cave under an old temple being dismantled by Greeks.
  5. 5
    Use Senu to find the cave entrance west of the old temple. Drop down a ledge to enter.
  6. 6
    In the cave, you can optionally destroy two sets of three snake-bearing urns.
  7. 7
    Continue east into Wadjet's Burrow.
  8. 8
    In the chamber filled with snake-bearing urns, destroy nearby oil pots to set them aflame, eliminating the snake-breeding operation.
  9. 9
    Enter the room and loot the red chest to complete the location objective.
  10. 10
    Find a scroll near the shrine of Wadjet on the northwestern side of the chamber.
  11. 11
    Confront and kill the caretaker and his two guards who block your escape.
  12. 12
    Confirm the kill to complete this phase of the quest.
  13. 13
    Travel east to the Pannouki Hideout to find Nanefer.
  14. 14
    Use Senu to locate Nanefer within the enemy camp.
  15. 15
    Clear the Pannouki Hideout: kill the level 26 captain, loot the treasure (a white chest on the northeastern end of the shelter), and rescue Nanefer.
  16. 16
    Carry Nanefer far enough away from the hideout and set him down.
  17. 17
    Talk to Nanefer to finish the quest.
