=== Obtaining the Items ===
First, you will need to obtain a Sacred Antler Talisman. To make one, you will need some Antlers, looted from Deer; a Star Herb, looted from Witches or bought from Luna in Edron; and Holy Water, able to be bought from Henricus in Thais after reaching mission 4 of the The Inquisition Quest.
When you have obtained all three of these items, use the Star Herb on the Antlers to obtain Antler Talisman.

=== Freeing the Souls ===
With the Sacred Antler Talisman, head to the Tainted Caves in the north of the Green Claw Swamp, . In this cave you will encounter Tainted Souls, Toads, Gloom Wolves, and Witches. The cave has 4 floors with the same monsters on each floor. Explore the caves and use the Sacred Antler Talisman on all the Tainted Souls that you find. Do this until you have freed 100 souls. Note that you can free the summons as well. By luring two Tainted Souls on you and freeing their summons you can collect the required 100 in less than 10 minutes.
When freeing a soul, a Redeemed Soul will spawn and the Tainted Soul on which the talisman was used will despawn shortly afterwards. You don't have to kill the Redeemed Souls since they will despawn 30 seconds after spawning. However, if you're interested on completing their Bestiary entries, you will have those 30 seconds to kill each Redeemed Soul and a single turn to kill each Tainted Soul after successfully using the talisman it.

When you have freed 100 souls, go to the 4th floor and enter the Mystic Flame. You will be teleported to a nearby room with Ekatrix. Kill her. After entering the boss room, the quest will immediately restart and you can start freeing souls again. Ekatrix can only be killed once every 20 hours, however.
