Start when you get control of Kratos. Use the left stick to dodge the attacks. Once you break free, fight your way forward. Follow the prompts and attack the small beetles with Circle, Square, and Triangle. Keep advancing forward until you enter a building. Turn to the right after you enter the door to find a red-orb chest and a Letter opposite of the chest. If there are gaps or objects in the way, use X to jump or double jump out of the way. Keep fighting forward until you fall into a jail. Fight off these creepy beetle-men. Some will attack with swords, so kicking them will disarm them. Once the room is clear, you will have to interact with the ramp that falls through the ceiling. Walk over to the shiny spot on the ground, and press R1.

Jump up through the hole, and continue forward. There is a green-orb chest directly ahead, and
