== Overview ==
"A request to all Virindi sympathetic to Aerbax's cause. We would aquire a source of power from beneath the black plains the humans call the Direlands. This power source would be a significant benefit to our affairs." ''-[[Dark Monolith Caverns Portal Gem]]''

* This quest requires the {{Itemlink|Dark Monolith Caverns Portal Gem}} to begin. This item can be found on both high level [[Virindi]] and [[Human#Raven Hand|Raven Hand]] humans.

== Walkthrough & Notes ==
# Use the portal gem to open a portal to the [[Dark Monolith Caverns]].
# Split into two groups. The group going south will encounter large groups of Shadows and Virindi. The group going east will encounter large groups of Raven Hand cultists.
# Have both groups progress to through the dungeon. Each group will come to a room with several large hostile crystals and a lever. The lever opens the door on the other wing of the dungeon. Pull both levels.
# The groups will be re-united at this point. Destroy a group of Slithis. You will come to another large room full of more hostile crystals. Destroy these then one of the destructible doors.
# Progress to the final chamber. Destroy the [[Guardian of the Monolith]].
# Loot the {{Itemlink|Title Token: Guardian of the Dark}}.
# Use the Dark Monolith located on the platform in the center of the room to obtain the hookable version of the [[Dark Monolith]].
# Bring the title token to [[Ulgrim the Unpleasant]] to be rewarded with the title reward.
# {{Optional}} If you don't want the Dark Monolith, you can give it to Ulgrim for experience.
