Echoes Of The End Guide: Chapter 4 Collectibles and Locations
What Collectibles Can You Find in Chapter 4?
Chapter 4 features three distinct categories of collectibles that enhance both your gameplay experience and understanding of the world:
tip
Journal entries provide crucial backstory about Aema's history and the mysterious events that shaped this world. Don't skip reading them!
Secret #1: Old Ledger Journal
Your first collectible opportunity appears immediately after crossing the stone bridge near the waterfall. Instead of rushing forward, examine the left side carefully. You'll notice a wooden barricade concealing a chest. Break through this obstacle to claim the Old Ledger, your first journal entry of the chapter.
Secret #2: Cracked Mirror Journal
Once you've unlocked the double jump ability for the first time, ride the zipline down to where Abram waits. At the bottom, resist the urge to follow the main path. Instead, look left to spot a chest positioned on a rocky ledge. Use your newfound jumping skills to reach this elevated platform and collect the Cracked Mirror journal.

Secret #3: Inscribed Gold Ring Journal
Navigate to the area featuring the third barrier, then use your double jump to reach Abram's position. From there, head left and cross the wooden bridge. This path leads to a double reward: both Secret #3 (the Inscribed Gold Ring journal) and your first Optional Conversation of the chapter.

Optional conversations provide character development that enhances the overall narrative experience. They're worth seeking out for story enthusiasts.
Secret #4: Adventurer's Notes
After navigating past the triple sea barrier, you'll find yourself sailing with Abram. Dock at the left-side pier and follow the ascending path up the stairs. Continue along the left route until you reach a puzzle area featuring waterwheels. Solve this climbing puzzle to reach the mountain's summit, where the Adventurer's Notes await in a chest.

Secrets #7-8: Double Discovery
The second seal area offers two collectibles through clever use of the waterwheel mechanism. Activate the pedestal to start the waterwheel and shift the climbable wall. For Secret #7 (Adventurer's Notes), climb to the structure's top. For Secret #8 (Aemic Scroll), navigate to the waterwheel's left side and follow the path to its conclusion.
Secret #9: Encrusted Scroll
The third seal area contains one of the chapter's most cleverly concealed secrets. Locate the wooden structure floating on water and stand on it. As the water level drops, the structure descends, revealing a hidden path. Examine the right wall carefully—a barricade hides in the shadows. Break through to claim the Encrusted Scroll.

Secret #10: Adventurer's Notes by the Giant Statue
In the same vicinity, search for a raised platform near the impressive giant statue holding a sphere. The chest containing another set of Adventurer's Notes sits prominently on this elevated area.
Secrets #11-13: Triple Discovery Behind the Barrier
The area behind the triple seal barrier yields three final secrets:
- Secret #11 (Statuette): Take the first right turn immediately after disembarking
- Secret #12 (Aemic Poem): Follow the main path, ascend the stairs, turn right, and search behind the moving wheels
- Secret #13 (Metal Cube): Take the left path from the stairs, climb using the giant waterwheels, and explore behind the wall at the top
warning
The waterwheel climbing sections require precise timing. Wait for the wheels to align properly before making your jumps.
