Quest Overview

Walk Through

The Major Smoldering Stone

[Optional] Purchase the rumor Duplicated Portals from various shopkeepers.
The duplicate portal for the Jahannan Vault is found at 66.9N, 15.0E. To get there, take the Al-Mar Oasis portal from Khayyaban at (49.4S, 26.0E) and then run to 49.8S, 15.0E.
Once inside the dungeon, head through the doors and take the west passage. Don't bother jumping across the platforms, the room beyond is a dead end (unless you have very high jump skill) - instead jump down to the lower section.
Go south down the stairs, killing the chain casting Zefir as you go. Head down the corridor and at the split go south up the ramp and follow it along to a room with a catwalk opposite.
Jump across to the platform (picture), no need to shift jump as the wall beyond the chains will stop you falling.
Go to the end of the catwalk, jump into the north room and head up the ramp to the next set of platforms.
Jump across to the brown platforms aiming for the wall like before. From here simply tap jump into the corridor to the south and move on to the next set of platforms.
At the next jump (picture), carefully shift jump across making sure to land on the dark brown wood and not the lighter colored beam near the wall, if you land on this part you will fall straight through into the area below. Once on the platform, jump across to the east platform and then tap jump into the corridor.
Go up the ramp into the next area with an Inferno and two spiral staircases. Head up the stairs and jump across to the platform and then into the corridor.
You will come to an open room with a bridge in the middle (picture), you will need to get across to the bridge and then to the mesh wall before going up the final passage to the west. If you do not have enough jump skill to reach it, you can simply jump down and take the long route around to the bridge that way.
At the end of the west passage you will come to a long drop, at the bottom is the adjoining room with the Major Smoldering Stone.

The Minor Smoldering Stone

[Optional] Purchase the rumor, A Fiery Stone, from Jizal al-Nurla the Scribe in Zaikhal at 13.8N, 0.1E, the rumor directs you to find a Fiery Cave at 15.0S, 31.2E.
To get to the cave quickly, start in Samsur and then proceed to the Yinar settlement portal at 0.8S, 18.9E, from here it is a short run to the cave at 15.0S, 31.2E.
Once there you will see 7 Gouts, run right past them down into the cave and pick up the Minor Smoldering Stone, you will also see a Textbook which you can take if you wish.
Optionally you can take the Textbook to Bretself the Translator in Cragstone for translation at 26.0N, 47.0E. The textbook translates to Atlan's Treatise.
