Overview

Fayza is interested in the Energy Infused Rocks from Deewain's Dark Cavern.

Run to the Dark Cavern at 87.9N, 9.3W.)
- Route: Tou-Tou to Snowy Valley portal at 27.1S, 96.0E
- You are dropped at a random starting location when you enter the Maze. See map for details.

Follow the map until you reach the largest northern room (labelled as North Pit).
- Warning: The south side pit does NOT have a ledge, and will result in you falling all the way to the bottom, with no means of getting out other than recalling.
When you reach the north big room with a pit, you can zoom out, and see an opening one level down.
The pit has an invisible floor, do a shift jump down to it. It was about a 3/4 jump. The invisible floor is out a bit from the edge, so don't try to just jump as close to the edge as you can.
Proceed into the tunnel from the invisible floor, and take the "Surface" Portal which, despite the name, does NOT take you to the surface where you started.
This portals you to another big room with stones to jump; however, if you do not want to do the jumping puzzle, you can kill the Defender golems up the ramp on the right hand side of the room instead.

Successfully jump across the platforms to the portal.
- Note: The locations of the platforms change, so the route will vary.

There is a series of 3 rooms to pass through, each with 3 Follower of Deewain Golems and a different element of "Defender" Golem.
The Followers are on a very fast respawn timer, but do minimal damage both melee and magic wise
Slay the Defender of a room to open the two doors into the room beyond. Once the Defender is killed, the Followers in its room will disappear.
- Note: Watch out when a double spawn occurs: killing a defender the second time closes the door again.
Head on through the doors.

If you do it right, you will end up in another big room with LOTS of Falling Spikes.
Go left wall, watch sequence, when last one nearby falls, run like hell
Next, there are Missile Defender Golems who hurl rocks at you.
Step back into the hallway and kill the 4 Fallen Rocks that lie on the ramp.
On the other side, there is another large room with Followers of Deewain, 1 Fiery Defender, 1 Charged Defender and a Chilled Defender.
Kill the defenders and a 5 minute portal to Deewain's Chambers will spawn.

The Iron Golem (350) is surrounded by a few Rocks and Followers of Deewain. He is weak to bludgeoning and acid. The Iron Golem has 200,250 health and nasty debuffs. If you defeat him, the rocks blocking the passage out of the room disappear.
Follow the passage and pick up Energy Infused Rock.
Give the rock to Fayza in Xarabydun for your rewards.

Notes

If you die in Deewain's Chamber, run back to the Dark Cavern and you will be portalled back to the chamber.
There are originally only a few Energy Infused Rock, but they respawn after being picked up, no need to kill the Golem again.
