The tornado appears shortly after you begin to traverse the empty space using words from the manuscript pages to create a substitute bridge of sorts. Rotating around the tornado are many ‘bridge’ words that can be activated with your flashlight. Simply shine your light on the one closest to you, jump carefully on it, look for a ‘path’ word, shine your light on it, and jump to it. It is important to time your jumps, despite being under a time limit, as it is fairly easy to misjudge and fall. A heavy Taken will attack you on this rather thin path, either run past him in terror or finish him off quickly. Repeat the process for the second level of the tornado. If done in time, the achievement will unlock as you grab for the ladder.

A very important tip: the time counter for the achievement is saved when you reach a checkpoint in this area, right when you meet one of the taken. If you get to that part fast you can try as much as you want and it is not a problem if you fall. The game is very lenient so you just need to be fast to reach the first checkpoint and then do the same for the second part. I even fell after reaching the final ledge and got the achievement.
