Gate of the Dead (Japanese: 死者の門, "Shisha no Mon" / lit. "Gate of the Dead") is an inner branch area of Eg-Lana. The area is filled with "doors" that change the direction of gravity when entered, and has a distinct Egyptian motif. The Ennead, one of the races of the 5th Children, are sealed here.

Crystal Skull[]
- Location: (F-3)
- Flip the map upside-down, then make your way back to (F-3) and put a weight on the dais in the room. Flip the map right-side up and warp back to the Grail point. If you've already unlocked the (F-4) shortcut, then simply climb your way up to (F-3) from (F-4). Otherwise, enter (F-3) from the top-left corner, using the Gale Fibula to run and jump to clear the gap and get past the crushing traps. Climb the ladders to get to the chest.
Vajra[]
- Location: (C-7)
- Place a weight on the 4th dais from the left. Then, either stand in place (don't get knocked back!) or move all the way left or right before the lasers come to kill you. Flip the map after the jingle plays and then open the chest in front of you.
- Based on what the skeleton says, I think you have only one try to get this or you permanently miss it the entire game? Someone, please confirm this. You can activate any dais; surviving is the key part here :)
- Just done it, died a few times to ducking-to-dodge a spirit and getting crushed by the descending pillars, didn't lock out the puzzle at all.

Hidden Birth Seal[]

Slight Weights[]

- Place a weight on the dais in D-5 to move the center pillar down. Go right and enter the gravity gate, come back to D-5 to activate the just-revealed dais, moving the pillar left. Switch gravity again in F-4 and head back to D-5 again, jump across the pit, then upward to the white dais.
- Defeat Unicorn at (C-1) then invert the gravity and come back to access the white dais.
- At (D-2), while the Grail Tablet is upside-down, whip the bottom-right wall and then break the Life Seal.
- Chant Sol in front of 5 statues in the background at (C-6).

- At the top of the left ladder, it is possible to whip the upper-right ground to break it open and pass through.
