The goal of the puzzle is to redirect light beams onto two gold discs located near the stairs beneath the Gold Mask platform. To do this, you must adjust four mirrors placed strategically around the room.
The puzzle features four adjustable mirrors and two light-sensitive gold discs:
- Two mirrors near the throne/platform at the back of the room.
- Two mirrors near the entrance of the room.
- The light enters the room through holes in the ceiling and must be redirected to the discs to activate the mechanism and unlock the Gold Mask.
Step 1: Adjust the Rear Mirrors (Near the Throne)
Start by moving to the mirrors at the back of the room near the throne/platform. Adjust these mirrors so they redirect the light diagonally toward the mirrors near the entrance:
- Rotate Mirror 1 to aim the light at Mirror 3 (near the entrance).
- Rotate Mirror 2 to aim the light at Mirror 4 (near the entrance).
Step 2: Adjust the Front Mirrors (Near the Entrance)
Next, move to the mirrors near the entrance of the room. Adjust these mirrors to redirect the light diagonally onto the two gold discs at the base of the platform:
- Rotate Mirror 3 to shine the light onto Disc 5 (beneath the stairs).
- Rotate Mirror 4 to shine the light onto Disc 6 (beneath the stairs).

Step 3:
Once all mirrors are correctly aligned, the room will display two X-shaped beams of light crossing through it. Both gold discs beneath the platform should now be illuminated.
When the light beams hit the gold discs correctly, the mechanism will activate, unlocking the pedestal that holds the Gold Mask. Approach the pedestal and pick up the mask, triggering a cutscene.
