(Note: For a video demonstration of the walkthrough below, click here.)

Once you have the blue key, go through the blue-keyed door. As you step through this door, you'll be at the top of a multi-level maze of passages and platforms.

With your back against the blue-keyed door, the fully explored maze would look something like this, when viewed on the wireframe Automap:

For the walkthrough below, follow the path from point "A" through to point "G" in this diagram:

Soul Sphere

Step off the platform you're on (A), and you'll drop down to another platform (B). Turn left and step down again.

To your right you can glimpse a flashing object through a slot near the floor. To your left is a computer screen on the wall (C). This is the control for the barrier which blocks access to the Soul Sphere.

Activate the computer screen like a switch, and quickly Run down to the Soul Sphere (G).

The barrier only opens for a moment. If you don't get past the bars in time, simply go to the teleporters at the other end of the hallway, and try again.
