## Summary

This is the first quest line for Gates of Discord progression. It will take you through Barindu and 4 parts of the Sewers of Nihilia. The purpose of this guide is to walkthrough the quest in detail. If you want a no frills guide then see this post on the forums.

## Guide

To start the quest go to Barindu and hail High Priest Diru Riwirn (`#zone barindu -626 236 -118`). He is in the northern part of the zone if you want to walk your way to him. Note that there may be mobs close to him that will scowl at you.

### Sewers of Nihilia: The Purifying Plant

#### Talk to High Priest Diru Riwirn

*You say, 'Hail, High Priest Diru Riwirn'*

`High Priest Diru Riwirn says, 'Do you wish to enter the [sewers]?'`
*You say, 'sewers'*

`High Priest Diru Riwirn says, 'Go find Ansharu. He has been researching their behavior patterns, and will be able to tell you what needs to be done. I hope that you will be able to help us out in these dire times. Please head to the sewer plant and find the source of the stonemite infestation. If you do this for us, I will share with you how to pass through the mountains and up to the temples created by the trusik, our exiled kin.'`
#### Talk to Ansharu

Go to the sewers (`#zone barindu -600 -305 -125`). They are south of Diru. Walk onto the grates to go in.

Work your way to Ansharu which is basically going eastward, then at your first intersection head left (east).

*You say, 'Hail, Ansharu'*

`Ansharu says, 'Find the aged stonemites. They are causing great trouble, come back and talk to me once you have solved the problem.'`
#### Kill Ancient Kayserops

From Ansharu head west and then south. Once you come to a room with a grate in the middle go down it and head west. At the next intersection head south and follow it all the way to the room full of aged stonemites.

After you kill all of the aged stonemites, an Ancient Kayserops will spawn. Kill it. If you happen to kill the Ancient Kayserops with DoTs but die first you might not get credit for the kill. Simply talk to Ansharu again and the aged stonemites will spawn again. Head back to Ansharu and hail him.

*You say, 'Hail, Ansharu'*

`You receive a temporary flag!`

After the sewer system was deserted by most Taelosians, many of the processes that occurred below the city ceased to work. In the sewers, many insects, animals, and other slimy diseased creatures thrive. Take this seal. I know that Alej is very timid and may think you are there to harm him unless he sees something familiar from you. Please be careful while you're down there and be on the look out for cave-ins.'`

#### Collect Tools

Go to the 3 rooms below and clear all monsters in them. When you do you should get the message `You have found some tools`. They are easy to miss so it might be a good idea to turn chat logging on and check that for the 3 messages.
