# After everyone has made the jump, one person should talk to the [[Font Guardian]], and everyone should use the portal to [[Qin Xikit's Hidden Crown]], that spawns down the stairs.
#* The portal remains open for 20 minutes.
 
----
 
=== Part 2: Qin Xikit's Hidden Crown ===
# From the drop, pull the lever on the south wall, and then head North into the room ahead.
# '''ONE''' person should now use the [[Enscorcelled Dais]], which will give them [[Qin Xikit's Crown]] and spawn several [[Ancient Defender]]s (Ghosts):
#: <font color="green">As <Player Name> lifts the crown from the dais, a thin wisp of light is pulled forward. A great protector has been disturbed. The only way to open the door leading from this chamber is to defeat the defender. Only then could one use the crown to unseal the way to Qin Xikit's temple.</font>
# Kill the Ancient Defenders, and then head through the door that opens to the North, and down the ramp (either direction). 
# Use the lever on the south wall, and then enter the room to the North.
# The person who has Qin Xikit's Crown must hand it to the [[Enchanted Dais]] in this room, which will spawn a portal to Qin Xikit's Island.  Take it.
 
=== Part 3A: Qin Xikit's Island ===
# From the drop, run Northwest until you reach a large temple.
# Run to the top of the temple, go inside, and shift-jump down to the bottom.
# To activate the Portal Device, all 4 eyes (north, south, east, west) must be used one time. Be careful, each time you use an eye, you will receive 5% vitae.
#* '''Tip:''' Have 4 separate people each use one eye in order to spread the vitae around.
# Once all 4 eyes are used, head back to the middle and use the Portal Device to be portaled to [[Qin Xikit's Antechamber]]:
#: <font color="cornflowerblue">Portal Device teleports you with Qin Xikit's Antechamber.</font>
 
=== Part 3B: Qin Xikit's Antechamber ===
# From the drop, take the hallway on the North wall. Hug the right wall, and work your way through the dungeon until you come to another Portal Device.
#* '''Note:''' There are two spots in the dungeon where you'll have to flip levers/floor plates in order to open doors. See the map for more info.
# Use the [[Guardian]] statue that is located just to the right of the Portal Device ('''NOT''' the Portal Device itself) to be portaled into the [[Secrets of Qin Xikit's Temple]].
#: <font color="cornflowerblue">Guardian teleports you with Secrets of Qin Xikit's Temple</font>
 
=== Part 4: Secrets of Qin Xikit's Temple ===
# From the drop, jump down into the pit in front of you and move into the next room.
# Pick up an [[Empty Water Skin]] from the floor, and fill it with 6 pints of blood by using it on the [[Pool of Blood]] 6 times.
# Once your Water Skin has 6 pints, hand it to the West [[Sacrificial Statue]] to pass the trial:
#: <font color="darkgoldenrod">Sacrificial Statue tells you, "Your sacrifice has been accepted, you may now proceed to the next room."</font>
#* '''Note:''' You can also fill the Water Skin with 9 or 10 pints of blood and hand it to the East or South Statues, respectively.
# Once you've passed the trial, go to the North room, jump down into the pit, and use the portal to [[Qin Xikit's Temple]].
 
=== Part 5: Qin Xikit's Temple ===
# From the portal drop, hug the left wall all the way to the end of the dungeon, where you'll find a [[Guardian]] statue.
# '''Note:''' Once you pass through the octagonal type room, and go through a short narrow hallway, you'll need to descend a 2nd ramp. See the map for details.
# Use the Guardian to be portaled into [[Qin Xikit's Tomb]]:
#: <font color="cornflowerblue">Guardian teleports you with Qin Xikit's Tomb.</font>
 
=== Part 6: Qin Xikit's Tomb ===
# From the drop, use the [[Sarcophagus of High Matriarch Qin Xikit]] on the North wall, which will give you the [[Ancient Armored Helm]], a piece of [[Ancient Armor]].
# Use the Portal Device on the West wall to be portaled into [[Qin Xikit's Receiving Chamber]], the last dungeon.
#: <font color="cornflowerblue">Portal Device teleports you with Qin Xikit's Receiving Chamber.</font>
#* '''Note:''' You will receive 5% vitae upon using the Portal Device.
 
=== Part 7: Qin Xikit's Receiving Chamber ===
# Work your way North through the dungeon to the end, where you'll find the end boss, [[Browerk]], sitting in his throne room.
#* '''Note:''' If you choose, you can work off vitae in the first part of the dungeon before reaching the boss.
# There are several things to know before going into the fight with Browerk, review these tactics:
#* Do not debuff him, he counters most debuffs.
#* Disband your fellowship before going into battle. Browerk casts ''Fellowship Debuffs'', so you lessen the chance to be debuffed when not in a fellowship.
#* If you are swallowed (portaled into Browerk's stomach), quickly switch to a [[Critical Strike]] weapon, and attack his [[Stomach Wall]] on full speed.  You have only have a percent chance of escaping his stomach when you land a critical hit.
#** '''Tip:''' If you're a mage, use wall spells for a greater chance to critical hit.
# Once you kill Browerk, loot [[Browerk's Hide]] from the floor.
# Speak to [[Guard Haigh]] at 25.7N, 48.9E in [[Cragstone]] for your XP and random reward.
# '''<font color="green">[OPTIONAL]</font>''' Hand Browerk's Hide to Guard Haigh for the title of ''Browerk Killer''.
#* '''Note:''' Hold on to the hide if you are trying to obtain the ''Kingslayer'' title.  See the [[Clutch of Kings]] for more information.

== Lore & Dialog ==
<font color=darkgoldenrod>Watcher of the Dead tells you, "Qin Xikit, Mistress of the Golden Shore, Keeper of the Kilika Vale in Ualannan's absence, lays beneath over thirty thousands years of weight. She has been silent these years imprisoned beneath her temple, bound by those who called her sister."<br>
Watcher of the Dead tells you, "Once she walked amongst children of other suns and ushered them along a quickened path. Heresy! Cried our sisters and a great hunt began within our sect. A schism grew and swallowed our sisters in madness. They drew chains of mana about our immortal forms and locked our eternal bodies away."<br>
Watcher of the Dead tells you, "Qin Xikit was the first to feel the sting of her sister's barbs, locked into a temple of her crafting, sealed away with the power of her crown."<br>
Watcher of the Dead tells you, "Eternal silence is shattered and Qin Xikit stirs in her tomb. A gateway has opened and through it comes consumption. Sealed in her tomb the matron can do nothing and the spirits therein are all but gone. I am the last to hold vigil."<br>
Watcher of the Dead tells you, "Seek her crown. Xi Ru consumed in madness, sealed Qin Xikit away. The crown must be found and the gateway to Qin Xikit's temple must be opened. At long last I can see Xi Ru's island, the magic that once locked it from sight has failed, a sister has succeeded at breaking the wards."<br>
Watcher of the Dead tells you, "Rejoice! Absolution is at hand."<br></font>
----
<font color=green>In the great Ziggurat of Qin Xikit, <Player Name> has struck a mortal blow against King Browerk. The bulbous leader of the Burun erupts in a violent spasm and collapses in a fit of explosive mana emissions. The leader will return in time, but the victory should be enjoyed for the moment. Huzzah, <Player Name>!<br></font>
----
<font color=green>Guard Haigh gives you Gem of Damage Addition.<br>
You've earned 56,184,660 experience.<br></font>
<font color=darkgoldenrod>Guard Haigh tells you, "This is for your efforts against the Burun Kukuur, King Browerk. You will need to wait three weeks before returning to me for another reward. If you wish to change your title and you have a scrap of Browerk's hide I will accept the hide and name you Browerk Killer!"<br></font>
----
<font color=green>You give Guard Haigh Browerk's Hide.<br>
Let it be known that <Player Name> has faced and defeated Browerk! Let it be known that from this day forth <Player Name> shall be known as Browerk Killer! Huzzah! Huzzah! Huzzah!
