Poseidon Princess
Poseidon's Chamber
Save your game, and head down the hall to meet the Poseidon Princess, who beseeches Kratos' help. A cursory glance in her room shows that the only way in is through the single blue portal there. Head into the room with three blue portals and float over to the only accessible portal on the right side. This one pops Kratos out of the top portal. From here, double jump to the ledge on the left and pull the lever to bridge the main pathway below.


Some mongrels also spawn, but the point is not to kill them but to kick them--literally. Grab them using the Circle button and kick them into the open portal, which spits them out of the portal on top like you've witnessed before. Except this time the platform, unable to bear the weight of a single dog, starts to lower a bit. Each dog kicked onto the platform lowers it ever more. Deliver a total of four dogs onto the platform, and then enter the portal to force the platform the whole way down, allowing access to the bottom portal.
This portal transports Kratos into the very room of the trapped Princess. Once freed, she immediately flees, but you should stick around a bit to collect the goodies around the room, including a Poseidon's Conch Shell and a Gorgon Eye. Back outside the Princess finds herself in greater distress, but take out the canines for her and drag her into the portal. As she makes a run for it, the gates close behind her and the two stone Golems come to life. They act similarly to the other stone Golems only that they glow in a different hue when struck. Bash them repeatedly using the Nemean Cestus and block their attacks until the finisher prompt pops up.


Drag the Princess along for the ride, killing off the pair of Onyx-shielded soldiers and another Golem. Once they've bitten the dust, spin the wheel and quickly run under them before they close on the Spartan. Following the cut-scene, flash Helios' glow on the distorted air near Pandora's statue to unveil a Phoenix Feather. Head out into the Upper Gardens.
