A Paladin's Soul begins the penultimate chapter of the Chains of Domination campaign, "A New Path", at Renown 56.

Objectives

Thenios and Bolvar at Keeper's Respite

Reclaim the Remnant of Justice from the Ossuary of the Banished in Torghast.

• Use the Attuned Shard at the Wayfinder in Torghast
• Keeper Hazaduum slain
• Portal of Souls entered
•  [Remnant of Justice]
• Meet Thenios at the Temple of Wisdom in Bastion.

Description

Bolvar Fordragon has seen visions of a vault hidden deep within Torghast where the Jailer keeps souls he deems valuable.

Uther was struck down by a mourneblade. When such a weapon is wielded with rage, it can shatter a soul into fragments.

If the Jailer holds a part of Uther's soul, it cannot be fully mended until the lost piece is restored.

Take this attuned shard to Torghast, <name>. It should guide you to the vault's location.

Find the lost fragment of Uther's soul so that he can be made whole.

Rewards

You will receive:

• 25 74
• 8,150 XP
• +75 reputation with The Ascended

Progress

Greetings Maw Walker. Your arrival is fortuitous.

Completion

I believe this soul fragment may be the key to Uther's recovery.

Notes

The Ossuary of the Banished

When players become eligible to start this quest, Thenios will appear at Keeper's Respite, hovering next to Bolvar. On approach:

Thenios says: The mourneblade tore a fragment from Uther's soul. Without it, I fear he may never heal.

Highlord Bolvar Fordragon says: I have seen a vision of where such vessels are kept. But retrieving it will prove perilous. The Jailer keeps his treasures well guarded.

Head into Torghast, and interact with the Wayfinder for the first time in a while:

<When infused with an Attuned Shard, this device can open hidden pathways within the tower.>

 <Use the  [Attuned Shard] to begin your search for Uther's Soul Shard.>

Players enter a special quest wing, the "Ossuary of the Banished", which introduces some traps and mechanics of the Adamant Vaults: iron maidens that attempt to drag the player in, bigger iron maidens with Mawsworn hidden inside, Impaled Souls, and rares that are actually nathrezim!

• New enemies and traps in Torghast
• 

  A trapped iron maiden

• 

  Vil'thras, a rare elite

If players have not already found him, Ve'nish will appear on the second floor, after the rare. He starts  [60] The Box of Many Things, one of the methods of meta-progression in Torghast going forward.

Keeper Hazaduum

The third floor is the boss floor, where Broker Ve'nott is present as always. Just past Ve'nott is Keeper Hazaduum. Aggro the construct:

Keeper Hazaduum says: Away! These are the prized souls of the Banished One!

Defeat it:

Keeper Hazaduum says: His rage... will consume... us all...

A Portal of Souls appears once Hazaduum falls. Head through it, and players will be buffed with:

 Souls of Frostmourne — Viewing many of the soul fragments that Frostmourne tore from its kills.

This allows players to see numerous previously-hidden soul crystals — much like the one the Jailer pulled out of his portal to craft Kingsmourne — including thirteen crystals labeled "A Forgotten Victim" and nine unique ones:

• The Archmagus Mentor (Antonidas)
• The Betrayed Father (Terenas Menethil II)
• The Blood-Queen (Blood-Queen Lana'thel)
• The Champion of Peace (Gavinrad)
• The First Paladin (Uther the Lightbringer)
• The Golden King (Anasterian Sunstrider)
• The Grand Magister (Belo'vir Salonar)
• The Guardian of Naxxramas (Sapphiron)
• The Holy Lifebringer (Halahk)

Interact with the The First Paladin crystal to loot the  [Remnant of Justice], then head through the exit portal to leave the wing.

• Frostmourne's souls
• 

  Portal of Souls

• 

  Soul remnants

• 

  The First Paladin

Thenios, Adrestes, Kleia, Uther, and Pelagos

Head to the Temple of Wisdom in Bastion. The nearest flight paths are Sagehaven or the Terrace of the Collectors. Up on the Eonian Archives, Thenios, Polemarch Adrestes, Kleia, Uther, and Pelagos are having a pow-wow near the soul mirror:

Thenios says: Without a Paragon of Loyalty, we cannot forge a new sigil.

Polemarch Adrestes says: Many Forsworn yet occupy the temple. How are we to proceed?

Uther says: Through compromise and understanding. I may be of aid in that regard.

Uther has the "Overburdened" debuff:

 Overburdened — Consumed by his memories, twisted by Frostmourne and the Maw.
