You may have unlocked this quest on Calador, after you have progressed to the third chapter of the game's story line and started your preparations for the spirit ritual. The Crystal Mage Zacharias is one of the people that need to participate in the ritual. You will meet him automatically, after you complete the "The Reactor" main quest (point 5 on the map), i.e. after you have taken all of the actions aimed at starting the reactor.

During the conversation with Zacharias mention the magic device that he has found and is currently trying to examine. Follow the mage to the North-East. After several moments you will reach the entrance to the cave with the crystal portal (point 5a on the map). Your character will make Zacharias realize that forces of Shadow are involved. In spite of all warnings, you will be asked to start the inactive portal in the cave and, until you do that, Zacharias refuses to take part in the spirit ritual.

After you walk into the Underworld collect the Soul Dust around, and talk to Tao, who is the guardian of the Isle of the Dead.

After the end of the conversation, you will return to the world of the living (200 Glory Points) so, talk to Zacharias again. You will learn from him that, in the actuality, your character disappeared for several hours.

Attack the shadow lord and watch out for his helpers

Prepare yourself for a surprise, because soon there will appear the Shadow Lord of Hunting in the cave and he will be accompanied by seven Minions of the Chasing Pack. I recommend that you start by eliminating, at least, some of the minions, so you do not end up surrounded by lots of opponents. Only after the number of the opponents goes down, attack the Shadow Lord and remember to remain in constant movement, and to perform dodges frequently. For defeating the Shadow Lord, you will be rewarded with 600 Glory Points. Also, do not forget to examine his body to collect the Raw Black Heart.
