Head up the path to meet Merrill when your business is completed. Speak with her then continue up the path where you are confronted by a group of Corpses and Skeleton Archers. AS you make your way up the mountainside you will run into a Dalish Hunter. Search the sack and find a somewhat hidden elfroot then go to the Sundermount Caverns.

After meeting Merrill, continue into the Sundermount Caverns.

Move forward and defeat the Giant Spiders. Move into the alcove to the west and search the rubble for the Last Descent Gauntlets / Gloves of the Spiral Eye / Gauntlets of the Fallen . Continue down the path but don’t miss the silverite at the bottom of the steps. When you can see the entrance to the Mountain Graveyard ignore it and instead go north to a crate containing The Seal of House Talwain . Approach the steps and defeat the Corrupted Spiders that attack, then head up and fight off the undead that spawn. Once clear, open the chest - simple for a variety of items.

Head to the Mountain Graveyard now, head north to find a pile of bones . Approach the Barrier and Merrill will use Blood Magic to remove it. If you support the use of Blood Magic then Anders and Bethany will take a Rivalry hit, otherwise you gain Friendship. Follow the path to a deep mushroom and then towards the Altar. An Arcane Horror will spawn as well as various other undead creatures. Looting the dead will result in a Ring of the Magister . Once completed approach the Altar.

Have Merrill disable the barrier (left) and then approach the alter for a fight (right).

Continue east after the scene and disarm the trap - simple , then defeat the Revenant. As you go north you’ll find a chest and chest - standard with an Elven Light Helm inside. Further north you will find a pile of bones with the Design: Rune of Lightning inside. As the path ends there is a Sundermount monument and a Barrier that will summon a Shadow Warrior and some Shades when touched – loot this Shadow Warrior for the Arm of Adruil then return to the camp.

Welcome Home
This quest starts as soon as you finish the previous one. Like other Companion Quests, this is simply a conversation to gain Friendship or Rivalry. Before you leave read the books on Arlathan: Part 2 and Mana and the Use of Magic . In the other room you’ll find The Maker’s First Children .
