Exploring Old Tarantia

When coming to Old Tarantia, I was always annoyed with this arrogant guy on the Avenue of Roses and his cheeky slogans:

What he is guarding is the rooftop terrace on top of Madame Zila’s, which may only be entered by members of the guild with the highest renown:

This lovingly designed part of Old Tarantia is not meant for everyone? - That’s why Samsonyte has come up with a way to circumvent the Guard.

My path starts here, at this panorama, from where you can jump to the opposite ledge:

Follow the ledge and then jump down until you reach this place, then jump into the gap:

At such places there are often these mysterious dimension tunnels, so here too. - If you jump hard enough with any swift mount, a short dimension tunnel will open and put you inside the rock under King Conan’s castle. - Do not be surprised about weird effects like this, just relog:

As the walls are invisible from the inside of the rock, you can see all buildings which surround it:

The next task is a little bit tricky. - You must jump exactly on the top of this wooden post:

Then just step through the invisible wall and you’re there:

Apart from a waitress and a firework, there is a Maestro on the terrace, where you can order a number of dance performances:

The dance performances are quite entertaining:

Samsonyte, too, together with his pet, the Cimmerian folk dancer, had a lot of fun with the girls:

The terrace is really worth seeing, a nice content, actually too good for a single Guild !

From up there it is also possible to reach the bridge leading over the Avenue of Roses:

… and from there you can even scale the the city walls of OT. - But that’s another story …

For today only a few more pictures from my tour:

The Temple of Mitra. I did not see before that heavenly light on its top:

So sacred the place that Samsonyte’s feet do not even touch the ground:

High over the market place:

I admire your exploration! I have had access to the Door Warden a long time ago because I was in a guild that qualified to go in and it is a nice little area. I may try later to sneak in. Great work!I

That’s interesting, there is another way up the VIP guild area… I sometimes go up there because I have to supply someone with overripe mangos and cabbage but I take a completely different way
Definitely going to try this out, maybe your way is easier

Love this The one time the guild I am in had access to this area I was sick, so it’s nice to see what I missed

When you have managed to reach the rooftop terrace - either as a member of the #1 guild, or by sneaking in, then there is an easy way to reach the city walls of OT:
