You start the chapter in Sakhmet City. You don't have to talk to anyone here. Go to tents outside the city for potions in the lower left tent (camp 4), weapons in lower right tent (camp 2) & rest at the topmost tent (camp 6). See Lost Desert Map, campsite map.
From City, head 7 steps East and 7 steps Northeast. You should be able to see the Temple of the Sky.
Follow the yellow lines on the Temple of the Sky map to the 2nd level.
Fight Silicast to obtain the Celestial Talisman.
After obtaining the Talisman, use the orb to return to Sakhmet City. You do not need to talk to anyone just travel northwards in the Lost Desert following the river if you don't need to top up your potions at Sakhmet campsite.
Next, go to the Ruined Temple nestled between the mountains
Go up to the 4th level of the Ruined Temple, fight Pharoah Gebarn II to obtain the upper part of the Medallion of Wind. The orb behind him will take you back to Sakhmet City.
Travel north again (see Lost Desert map), past the Ruined Temple to Waset Village. The mountains will shift apart after Pharoah Gebarn's defeat.
In Waset Village, pick up Velm, the 3rd companion of Rohane from Camp 8, lower right tent. Rest there if you wish to.
For potions & weapons visit Camp 7 (the lower left tent) but be reminded that there will be 30% discount after rescuing the missing girl from the Palace of the Ancient Kings. Buy sufficient potions for your encounter with Revenant and come back later for cheaper stuff :)
Rescue the missing girl, Lifira from the Revenant of the Dunes and two possessed skeletons inside Palace of the Ancient Kings Basement 1 which can be accessed from the tunnel hidden under the bed circled in red on the Palace map.
After rescuing her, you MUST return to Waset Village, top right tent (camp 10) to talk to her. She will give you the access codes that will enable you to talk to Bukaru in the Oasis to get the second piece of the medallion.
Go northwest from the Village to the Oasis in the desert. Follow the mountains on the left till you reach the top turning point of the mountain range (see Lost Desert map). From there, move 3 steps North and 13 steps west to reach the oasis.
In the Oasis, you MUST talk to Bukaru who will give you directions to locate the 2nd piece of medallion (marked with an X on the map). If you refuse to speak to him, the medallion will never appear at the marked spot!
Follow the mountains down a curve and up northwest till Ruined City of Akhten-Ka. By the way, no, you cannot pick up the gemstone in the middle of the smiley face till you defeat Coltzan.
Defeat Coltzan's Ghost in Ruined City of Akhten-Ka. Get the 3rd piece of Medallion in the barrel behind Coltzan!
Follow the map on the Medallion to find the gemstone (2 steps left of the nose of smiley face formation) This is the last piece of the Medallion (see Lost desert map). Check that you have the complete Medallion before moving on. Without a the complete Medallion, you won't be able to enter Zakharukh's Pyramid.
Next, travel 5 steps south of Ruined Temple, 16 steps southwest and 5 steps south to the Zakharukh's Pyramid (see Lost Desert Map) to battle with Anubits on the 3rd Level of the pyramid.
