Elaboration

ToStep explain1 what step three of this secret is wanting.

  • The greatest song is referringrefers to the secret treasures. Finding "some" of them is a requirement to reach the Glyph Tower. Like page 22 depicts, the player can view their "trophies" ("secret treasures"/"golden statues") in a secret area south of where they obtain the Shield.

    Step 2 refers to the glowing portal created by the secret treasures. The player must enter the portal to reach the Glyph Tower.

    Step 3 states "the greatest song, the song of The Golden Path." This refers to page 49 of the instruction manual, which contains "The Golden Path" otherwiseand known"The Greatest Spell" as Trunic captions. The Golden Path is the inputHoly usedCross onpuzzle your keyboard or d-padconnected to open The Door inopening the MountainsMountain Door.,

  • As seen from within states to look at the goldena path from the bottom origin point throughout all 25 squares until reaching the center end point.

    "Seen from within" means to look from the other sideside, ofas if The Golden Path was a window with two sides. To do this, the page i.e.containing flipThe theGolden Path should be flipped horizontally, flipped like a piece of paper.

  • Finally, "un-Un-sing" requests the code be inputted from the center out rather than the bottom inin.

The symbols at the top are 8 Trunic letters. When translated, this states: 
"we are the(e) eyes of the far shore".

Unsolved Mystery

The next mystery may lie within the chords of the audio (the black lines below) (10Hz - 240Hz), but not much is known past this.
