[[Valten Darkcleanse]] has asked your assistance in penetrating the cold undeath lingering about in Nektropos and put an end to his [[Maid Maltena|sister's remains]] along with Lord Everling.

==Walkthrough==
The layout is very similar to the Nektropos Castle. However, you are forced to take a specific pathway due to blocked passages.

#The courtyard is full of [[An eidolon watch dog|eidolon watch dogs]]. In the stables can be the first named : {{Named|Demitry the Ravager|}} (will set the zone lockout), around the forge can be {{Named|Unargin the Blacksmith|}} (will set the zone lockout). You need to kill 2 {{Named|a flesh rampager|}} 53 (severe undercons with mana drain and some sort of damage reduction) in order to unlock the door.
You need to pass through locked door or passage ways all through the zone.
 
 
#After a few turns in a corridor you arrive in a room with several ghosts in it, amongst them can be {{Named|Butler Balthazen|}}. Kill them and touch the door. {{Named|The Burning Soul|}} will spawn in the firepit. He sends you some {{Monster|soul ember|}} that you need to kill. After 4 waves of minions, he will attack you. Killing him will unlock the other door of the room.
