Chapter 12 – The Marketplace

Introduction

Hello everyone, welcome to our Walkthrough for Chapter Twelve of Beyond Hogwarts: Volume Two of Harry Potter Hogwarts Mystery. Hello everyone, welcome to our Walkthrough for Chapter Ten of Beyond Hogwarts: Volume Two of Harry Potter Hogwarts Mystery.  You ventured into the heart of the desert through the ROCC Division, where you uncovered a mysterious camp tied to the enigmatic minecart from Gringotts. A startling encounter with a riddle-speaking Sphinx left you seeking guidance, prompting a return to your friends at the ROCC Division for advice.

Your journey continued with a visit to Gringotts, where Griphook reluctantly revealed that the minecart belonged to Gringotts but kept its purpose in Egypt a secret. During this visit, you also reconnected with Ruby, who was delving into her own investigation involving her former love, Eris. By collaborating with Ruby and using skills learned from Vega, you managed to pinpoint a significant location tied to Eris’s sightings.

As Ruby pursued her leads, you uncovered another piece of the puzzle—your friend Bill Weasley, a seasoned curse breaker, is likely in a hidden wizarding marketplace in Egypt. Thanks to Vega’s resourcefulness, you now have the means to travel there and reunite with Bill, bringing you one step closer to unraveling the mystery of the minecart.

With the pieces of the puzzle slowly falling into place, Chapter Twelve promises new revelations, exciting encounters, and deeper insights into the secrets of Egypt. It’s time to prepare for the challenges ahead and continue your journey with determination and curiosity.

Proceed to the Egypt Marketplace when you are ready. Upon arriving, you’ll notice the speech bubbles above some of the characters. Tap on those if you’re curious to see what they have to say.  When you arrive, you will be amazed by the appearance of the marketplace and astonished by the sheer variety of goods available for purchase, ranging from magical artifacts to exotic wizarding trinkets.

You will approach a lady who is selling items at a nearby stall, hoping she might be able to tell you where Bill is located.

However, at that moment, a man will appear and steal a sundial from the stall.

You will immediately chase after him in an attempt to catch him. To track down the thief, you need to earn five stars within eight hours. Three stars are required to pass.

Bonus progress actions are tied to the scale and your character. Prioritize these actions to save some energy. Slide the screen left and right to check all available actions. 

Fortunately, you’ll manage to catch up to him, but when he realizes there’s no way out, he’ll try to destroy the antique.

Unexpectedly, Bill will appear and wave his wand, saving the antique. 

However, the thief will take advantage of your distraction and manage to escape.

Following that, Bill will say that he didn’t expect to see you in Egypt. You will get additional lines of dialogue if you have completed A Weasley Christmas Vacation Adventure.

You will then ask him if thieves are common in this area, and he will explain that they aren’t, but recently, they’ve become a problem. In fact, this is the third thief they’ve encountered this week, which is quite strange. Bill will then ask why you are looking for him, and you will tell him that you knew he was in Egypt and managed to find his base camp. 

He will be surprised and ask how you managed to find his base. There are two options to choose from. If you like Bill Weasley, it is recommended to pick the first option.

Bill will then say that there is something you could help him with, but he’ll insist that you don’t discuss it here. You will suggest returning to his camp so you can talk privately, away from prying eyes.

Go to the Egypt Dunes to talk with Bill. You’ll ask Bill what kind of help he needs, and he’ll explain that it’s strange how your portkey brought you here, but that he truly could use your assistance. Bill will then tell you to listen carefully, as he needs to explain something important about the minecart in the dunes.

Bonus progress actions are tied to the papers and Bill. Prioritize these actions to save some energy. 

Bill will explain that he has a minecart that mysteriously appeared out of nowhere, and he’s been trying to secure it, but the Sphinx keeps stopping him every time he gets close. 

He’ll also add that the longer the minecart stays out here, the more people start spreading rumors about it. The fact that you’re here, he’ll point out, means that word is getting out to curse-breakers, which could lead to complications. There are two options to choose from. If you like Bill Weasley, it is recommended to pick the second option.

Bill will add that if thieves and curse-breakers are showing up, then it’s only a matter of time until the treasure hunters follow. He’ll emphasize that you definitely don’t want to be here when the treasure hunters show up. When you ask him what exactly he needs your help with, he’ll explain that he needs someone to keep an eye and ear out for treasure hunters. Securing the minecart on his own has proven difficult, so having an extra wand on his side would be a huge help.

Afterward, Bill will say that he has time for one question, and he’ll ask you what you’d like to know. There are three different options to choose from. These options will influence some dialogue that will follow, but they won’t impact the story.

Shortly after that, Bill will mention that he now needs to focus on the Sphinx problem and will send his regards to his brothers. You will then decide to meet up with your brother Jacob.

When you ask her which place in Egypt she’s going to, she will seem a bit unsure about the answer.

She will ask you how you know where she’s going. There are two different options to choose from. These options will influence some dialogue that will follow, but they won’t impact the story.
