Originally, this was a quest that involved one of the discovered Soul Crystals that imprisoned [[Bael'Zharon]]. Unlike with the [[Fenmalain Vestibule]], Caulnalain was secured by the Shadow forces. However, the Shadows failed to protect the crystal from Isparian attack and it was destroyed. On its corpse were Soul Gems that were used to create unique crystal items.

Quest Overview
Originally, this was a quest that involved one of the discovered Soul Crystals that imprisoned Bael'Zharon. Unlike with the Fenmalain Vestibule, Caulnalain was secured by the Shadow forces. However, the Shadows failed to protect the crystal from Isparian attack and it was destroyed. On its corpse were Soul Gems that were used to create unique crystal items. It has since been replaced with a weaker replica that drops less powerful gems.
Walkthrough
- Retrieve a Caulnalain Key from either mid-stakes Gambling, or as a trophy from Shadow Lieutenants. You can find Lieutenants in the Caulnalain dungeon itself.
- Once you're ready make your way to the Caulnalain Vestibule.
- Route: Run from Neydisa Castle or take the Windrune Cottages portal from Crater Lake at 66.4N 14.3E.
- Once you portal in, jump down into the area below using either the east or west room, it doesn't matter which.
- At the bottom go into the south west room and head down the passage, once you reach the T section head left and then take the second left turn heading south.
- You will come to a room with green lighting in two corners, take the east passage from this room and just follow the path all the way to the room with the Caulnalain Gate. You will find that the gate is just metres away from the pit you dropped into at the start.
- Use a Caulnalain Key on the gate to receive a Caulnalain Portal Gem. Use the gem once you're ready for the final section.
- The last part is very easy to navigate as the only way to progress is by jumping down a pit at the end of each section. After the second jump head east into the area with the Caulnalain Crystal.
- Once you have defeated the crystal loot a gem and take it to one of the brothers in Uziz (24.4S, 28.7E) for your reward.
- Note
If you continue on into the sections behind the Caulnalain Crystal you will find lots of areas that spawn Crystal Spurs. The Spurs drop Tiny Shards which can be given to Gersan the Sureshot in Uziz for 30 Crystal Arrowheads. The arrowheads can be used to fletch ammunition for crystal missile weapons.
