Hint in Cemetary please

Requesting a hint: Gate in Cemetery

SpoilerShow

The head says the answer is in the Archives.
I have thoroughly searched the archives.
I found the note to decipher the movement to open the gates.
Afterwards I found the 3 parchments with the story about the Xafi traveler.
I am assuming the story is the riddle/answer??
So far I have tried the placement of the parchments as the answer.
I then figured it maybe directional but I have no map of the entire world to see which direction the tundra is and the home of the desert.
The gravestones are also not set up in a way that they can be used as markers for the riddles. If the story is indeed the answer/riddles that is.

Am I on the right track? A really minor hint would help. Frustrating when I can not figure out at least some of it.
thanks

Yup, you're on the right tracks. Two hints:

SpoilerShow

1. There are 5 sentences, so there are 5 moves to make.
2. As for the direction of Tundra/Ice and Desert, it's the same than in our Earth, assuming you live in the north hemisphere.

An extra hint:

SpoilerShow

Reset the floating rock to the middle position after each move.

I'm stuck at the same point.

I assume north is map-north?
I don't get it.

Frozen Tundra - Like russia? Would say East.
Setting Sun - Sun sets West usually.
Hot Desert - Africa? That's South for me.
North Star - Well North?
Path - Same as the 1st? East?

What am i doing wrong?

[3mortis]

if you dont want to think about that

SpoilerShow

north,west,south,north and north

[eduran]

Honestly, I think it's one of the weaker riddles.

SpoilerShow

Deserts are always south? What if you are from Australia or South America? Good luck finding a desert in the south. Tundra isn't quite as bad, since it's generally in the north no matter where you are.

Now I know why I didn't got all these clues. I haven't visited the Archives yet. Or so I think.

Thank you for the help. It was a very unclear riddle. Not a weak one but some key info was missing.

SpoilerShow

I was missing the starting point of the Desert
but...
Deserts are not always South nor are Tundras.
As I am in North America the largest Desert is actually East and yes somewhat south. However I do start in the Desert in the Story so that gets cleared up.
but...
Both the North and South Pole are frozen and have Tundras. So I could quite frankly go South and then when I come back it would end up being flipped.

sadly too a bloody frog ate my compass and when I backtracked to the bog I could not find it. lucky for that other map.
