Foul Cavern

This dungeon is a rather cold and dark place, where you can pick up some good loot and learn a level 3 Spell.

To the west of the entrance are three drakes guarding a nest with a few items. To the east are three more drakes and a bit of loot. In the north wall of the western cave is a secret passage leading to a huge dark chasm. In the middle of the chasm is some sort of building which can be reached by going around the perimeter. Whether you go round clockwise or anticlockwise is upto you. On the outside path near the NW corner is a ghost which tells you that it is a vahnatai (the first you have met so far). He also warns you not to go to the crypt. In the NE corner are six Ghasts.

The entrance to the crypt in the centre is from the east and is guarded by a Cave Demon. In one of the two sarcophagi in the crypt is a golden ring..

To the west is a long temple inhabited by a Minister of Shadows and two Whights. When you attack him the minister is suddenly replaced by a Vengeful Shade. There is not much loot here, but a secret door in the NW leading to a crystal that teaches Daze L3 and a chest with coins and a few valuable items.

To the north of the crypt is a hall with undead. In one of the coffins to the north is a waveblade; the other is empty. In the apparently empty coffin to the east you can find a button. On pressing it part of the wall to the west disappears revealing a further chamber where the Lich Knor'Ihrno presides over 2 Banshees and 5 Wights. The lich drops a Lost Mage's Robe, a Strange (Vahnatai) Cloak and some crystals.

• Going west from the entrance is a button on the north wall. This opens a path to the icy passages to the north.
• In the NW corner of the long temple is a button on the north wall. This opens a path to a small chamber with a seeing crystal and a chest.
• In the lich's chamber on the west wall, just south of the podium is a button which also opens a path to the crystal chamber.

If you tell the vahnatai ghost that you have killed the lich it will disappear, but you get no reward.
