Stuck in Atlantis

[Under Your Bed]

Spoke to the old guy & he died, took the staff, then transformed into some other women & now IDK what to do?

There's nothing on screen, no quest, no marker , no objective? Is this the end of the game? I don't understand what I'm supposed to do, totally lost atm.

So you're playing a present-day section as Layla?

I don't recall that part too much, but you should need to look around the main room (including the small platform that's the opposite side from the entrance) and there will be a piece where you need to go into an adjacent chamber to solve a light beam puzzle.

I don't remember the woman's name, but that could be her. She is wearing modern clothing & investigating with some other women. Last time she was laying down in some modern place & I had to look around an office.

The platform that has some giant object that looks like a tuning fork? I can't interact with it, I tried. Then I tried to 'walk' through the wall of light, but I couldn't climb up out of the water. Went back to the entrance, there's nothing to do there either. Can't open my map to fast travel out. Wandered around for a few minutes looking for 'something' as I have no indication of what to do or where to go. Then gave up from boredom.

Might try to find a walkthrough guide for this section as I didn't see anything relating to a puzzle or light beams, anywhere. Seems odd to not mark precisely where I need to go or what I need to do when that's how the rest of the game has been since playing it.

Yes, you're playing as Layla, she's the "real world" character you're controlling; the game takes place in the present day. Kassandra/Alexios is a historical person from ~2500 years ago whose memories Layla is experiencing in VR (which is what most of the game is).

You have no map or fast travel because you're not in ancient Greece, which only exists in the Animus simulation, but rather are in modern Greece.

Anyhow, take a look at this starting at 10:30:

Spoiler tags because even the video name is a spoiler.

When you playing as Layla, you were supposed to reactivate the 4 monster light pyramids. First climb up the pillar and go to a room that blocked the light beam, it is in the far right end when you are facing the big aquarium.

After you adjust the light, go to the control panel in front of the big screen. The cutscene should play out after that.

I skipped through your video but I didn't choose the same option & couldn't see the light beam puzzle either. I've found another video on the light beam puzzle though. Finally realized I needed to climb up to an area above. Why did they not mark it like with everything else in the game? How stupid. The light beam puzzle is way too hard to understand so I'm glad I can follow someone else otherwise I would have given up here & never played again.

I'm about to watch the video (above) again to try & solve this puzzle so I can continue playing the game. Adjusting the light is the problem. It makes no sense to me. Still, not as bad as the dlc for FO4
