Dialogue

"Here at the heart of the Temple of War are forged the very arms and armor of the gods. This most sacred of places has been defiled. During the brief period while the vile Shadow Army of Menzies ursuped the Temple, they choked the pure fires of the forge with a vile miasma used to imbue all their weapons with an unholy taint.

Though they have been driven from the Temple, the source of the corruption remains in the tunnel that feeds the forge. Go to the tunnel and purge it from all seeds of corruption."

Followup:

None.

Walkthrough

Leave the forge through the southern exit and keep to the right. There will be three large groups of Shadow Army creatures. After defeating them, you will find the entrance to the tunnels close by.

The tunnels are plagued with spiders. In addition to the visible dryders and seeds, you will be attacked by Armored Cave Spiders that come down from the ceiling. Advance slowly, even if it looks like the coast is clear. The seeds possess Lingering Curse, an enchantment removal skill. Parties with a bonding monk may want to clear the Spider Cave before taking the quest and spawning the Seeds of Corruption. The Seeds themselves are relatively easy to kill.

After you finish this quest, the Eternal Forgemaster will be able to craft Obsidian armor (also known as Fissure armor) for you. He'll also buy items, so you can sell the loot you found on the way.

Note

You have to do this quest each time you enter the fissure to forge armor. Having done it before does not count.
