Having retrieved a new sword players really make use of it through this next section of tower. They will get used to moving around in the light world to effect shadows for them to move on back in their own world. Players also finally reach the top of the tower to not be reunited with their bodies, disappointingly. You will find yourself backtracking through much of the tower to retrieve both Memories and glass shards.
