The Gray Mountains: Locate Urgost's lair

On the right there is a heap of items, and a little further on the left another one. Run forward and after watching the cutscene deal with two barbarians and a sorcerer. They are not difficult enemies to defeat, though the former have quite dangerous combinations of blows.

There are several chests and barrels near the fire (destroy everything), and a little further on the right a heap of items. Run the only path until you notice a small barbarians' camp in the distance. On the left there is a heap of items. In the camp you'll fight with several warriors and. Try luring out the former...

...or shoot out the latter, because sorcerers - though not very tough - can hurl powerful magic missiles. In spite of that the fight will not be difficult.

Afterwards search the camp. On the right there are barrels, while on the left there's a heap of items and a flower. Go a bit higher. The left road leads to the glowing portal, but before you go there, crash some crates and barrels around the fire (there is also a heap of items a little further).

Visit a small cave on the right as well. A mushroom is on the left (near the entrance) and you'll also find a chest, a few barrels and crates. Take all the items and head for the glowing portal. On the right there is another barbarians' camp, but this time you'll also have to fight with orcs - there are several archers on the rocks around and some heavy-armored orcs. Plus some warriors and barbarian sorcerers.

Try to lure enemies who fight hand-to-hand, so that those attacking from a distance won't be able to shoot at you. Use special abilities, and even summon Beleram, because the fight will be quite difficult. After you've defeated the enemies fighting hand-to-hand shoot all the archers and sorcerers.

Go to the camp. Before you run up, search a small depot on the left. There's a chest, a heap of items, two flowers (on the left and right) and several chests and barrels to destroy. If you play as Farin you'll notice the wall behind the fire - you can break it. It's the [SECRET 1/5 for Farina].

The broken wall will take you to a small cave, where you will find three veins of gold on walls and a chest with treasure. Go outside and run upstairs. On the right, under the rocks, there is a heap of items. Near the wooden construction a little further there's a barrel.

Defeat two orc archers and a barbarian warrior, search a heap of items on the right, and a bit further on the right kill another warrior. Further you'll fight with a small group the consists of, among others, heavy-armored orcs and archer. When you reach this place the game will be saved automatically.

Before you move forward look left. You will notice a flower on the left, a heap of items on the right and some foot tracks - if you play as Eradan. Follow them and you'll reach a hidden place with a chest and a heap of items near the fire. Don't leave this place yet. Run forward.

Look at rocks on the left carefully - there's [SECRET 2/5 for Eradan] in one of them. Search the hiding place and then turn left. Before you jump down you can pick up a flower. Next, come back to the place with the foot tracks, only this time - don't follow them. Instead, go forward under the stone bridge.

After a short stroll you'll get to a mushroom on the left and a place from where you will have to jump down. There is a deserted enemy camp downstairs. There are several barrels and a heap of items here. Run up, to the right. On the left, near the collapsed tunnel there is a flower. Opposite the flower you'll see two barrels. Prepare for the next fight (the game will be saved automatically here).

The heavy-armored orc warriors will begin to come running through the bridge. Hide in such a way as to make it impossible for the sorcerers and archers standing on the other side of the bridge to hit you. Defeat the orcs and then shoot all the enemies fighting from a distance. They are very far away, so you will have to enter the bridge to reach them.

Get across the bridge. To the right there's a teleport and a heap of items. You can see the glowing portal in front of you. Use it to pass to the next part of the level. On the left, near the edge there's a flower. Run into to the cave and go through the corridor. Jump down and turn left. Downstairs, on the left there's a reception committee awaiting you - two heavy-armored orcs and two archers.

After dealing with these enemies take care of the archers shooting at you, and then run to the left, downstairs. Round the corner two heavy-armored orcs will come out running at you, as well as a barbarian warrior and an orc archer. Near the torch on the left there's a crate and a barrel.

Run downstairs and defeat a heavy-armored orc. Next, get your ranged weapon ready - behind the glowing portal (don't use it yet) there's a barbarian sorcerer standing upstairs. Bring him down from a distance, otherwise he might cast too many spells on you.

On the right, in a small cave, there are a few barrels and chests. Destroy them and collect all the items. Afterward search the left corridor. There will be more barrels and chests on the way. At the end of the corridor there's a chest you should search. Only now can you use the glowing portal but don't jump down just yet.

The next battle can be quite difficult, if you begin to fight with all enemies simultaneously. That's why, first bring down two archers - one is on the opposite rock, and the other on the rock next to you, on the left. Then jump down and turn right at once. Two heavy-armored orcs will appear there, while to the right - an orc archer and a barbarian sorcerer.

It's essential that you fight here and not run out to the right. Do it only after you've eliminated all enemies (the ones using ranged weapons should be killed the same way - from a distance). If not, two strong barbarians will join the fight - it's better to deal with them when there's no one else left.

Search the place after you've killed the enemies. Opposite the glowing portal you used to get here there are a lot of barrels and chests. Expect to find more in the corner on the left, there's also a mushroom there. On the rock to the left you'll see a vein of gold. To the right, in a small cave there's a chest, a heap of items and more barrels and crates.

Go upstairs. On the left, on the rocky wall, there's a mushroom. You will be attacked by two heavy-armored orcs, an archer and a barbarian warrior in the tight corridor a little further (you can collect the mushroom on the way - it's to the left on the rock but you have to turn to see it). A bit further, on the left there are more archers - kill them from a distance but don't jump down yet.

Before you do it search the cave on the right. There's a chest, a heap of items and a lot of barrels and chests to destroy. Jump down and defeat a heavy-armored orc and a barbarian warrior. Destroy the barrel and begin to climb up through the corridor on the right.

Upstairs on the right there is a corridor leading to the bridge, but before you go outside, search a small cave on the left (three crates and a mushroom). On the other side of the bridge there are a lot of enemies. Expect both strong and ordinary barbarian warriors and heavy-armored orcs, and a little further - orc archers and barbarian sorcerers.

In order not to be shot at pull back to the cave and fight with enemies who use melee weapons. What's more, not all opponents will start fighting at once - use this situation to your advantage and do some serious damage to them from a distance. At the end shoot all the enemies who use ranged weapons.

Approach the right edge of the bridge and you'll notice some tracks. Jump down where the tracks end and begin to run along the rocks. You will come across a mushroom after a while, the [SECRET 3/5 for Eradan] hidden in the rocks a little further, and finally a vein of gold.

Run till the end. There is a bend to the left, as well as a flower, a heap of items and a golden chest you should search. Continue the journey till you see a place from where you can jump down (there's another flower here and vein of gold on the right a bit earlier). Then return to the bridge and cross it.

There are three paths here. The left leads to a flower hidden behind the bush (it's just by the edge). The right will take you to a heap of items and a flower, while the one in the middle to the next part of the level. Search the body of a sorcerer who was here and you'll find the sixth Sorcerer's Scroll necessary to complete the [SIDE QUEST] Cult of the Lidless Eye. It's also a [SECRET 4/5 for everyone]. Go through the glowing portal and the game will be saved automatically.

Run following the only path. On the right there is a heap of items, and on the other side of the wooden bridge there are some new enemies - a heavy-armored orc and a lot of archers. After defeating the orc shoot all the archers or do it first (two are on the left, two on the right). On the right, near the fire you will find another heap of items and a mushroom.

Look at the place from where you came out and then up - there's an archer and two heavy-armored warriors. This is a great opportunity to get rid of all of them easily using a ranged weapon. Run following the only possible path upstairs (on the rock to the right there's a vein of gold). Two archers from the higher level will shoot at you. Kill them and run to the bridge.

There's a mushroom near the fire. Behind the first bridge, on the right you will find a heap of items, and a few feet away - a vein of gold on the rock on the right. In front of the second bridge there's another mushroom. Pass to the other side and turn right. Kill the opposite archer (to the right of this enemy, on the rock there's a vein of gold) and two on the left, on the other side of the chasm.

Run ahead. On the way, on the right rock you'll come across two veins of gold. At the fork turn left to run up to the place where you saw the enemy archers. You can pick up a mushroom while going there (it's by the destroyed bridge), while by the fire you will find a chest, a heap of items, a teleport and the [SECRET 5/5 for Eradan] hidden in the rocky wall. Come back to the fork and this time run upstairs. You will receive a new objective of the quest.
