Walk Through
Go to Zaikhal and speak to Danira the Dusty, she tells you to retrieve a Master Seal in the Graveyard at 65S, 44W.
In the graveyard, clear your way to the crypt located at 65.6S, 43.9W, once inside you should see an Ancient Chest, open it and take the Rytheran's Master Seal.
From here, you must take the Master Seal to the statue located outside the mage academy, the fastest route here would be to take the Neydisa Castle portal from Holtburg and run to the Master's Sentinel statue located at 74.7N, 18.4E. Once there, hand the Master's Sentinel statue your Rytheran's Master Seal and it will teleport you to the dungeon (the drop is safe).
You give Master's Sentinel Rytheran's Master Seal
The statue seems to glimmer for a moment, and a disembodied voice intones, "Welcome back, Master. Even in our ageless vigil, you have been long absent."
Once you have handed the sentinel your seal, you are permanently flagged to re-enter the dungeon, even if you die you can just run back and use the statue to be sent back to the dungeon.
Once inside, you will encounter numerous undead Imperial Guards and Imperial Archivist. Kill these with fire and proceed north and then east through the dungeon until you come upon a room with a 3-way split, to the north and south you will find lock cloister doors and to the east you will find a locked Lord's Sanctum door.
First, head to the north, upon clearing your way through you will find a spot with a monster named Majordomo of the North Cloister, kill it and retrieve the North Cloister Key (no timer), use this on the nearby locked northern cloister door.
From here you will encounter manyBlood Priestesses, they will spam level 7 acid attacks and drain your health and mana quite a bit. Push through them until you come to an open room with 3 priestesses and some pillars and bookshelves, once you clear the room, on the eastern side near one of the pillars you will find the North Cloister Key Half (no timer), pick it up and head back to the 3-way split room again.
Proceed to the south clearing the Imperial Guards and Imperial Archivists along the way until you locate the Majordomo of the South Cloister, kill it and retrieve the South Cloister Key (no timer), use this on the nearby locked southern cloister door.
Continue on through the door and you will encounter many Celestial Illuminators, kill them and proceed through again until you come to another open room with pillars and bookshelves, kill the 3 illuminators in here and on the southern side of the room, near one of the bookshelves you will find the South Cloister Key Half (no timer), pick it up.
Combine the North Cloister Key Half with the South Cloister Key Half to create Key to the Lord's Sanctum.
Head back to the 3-way split and this time go to the east, now use Key to the Lord's Sanctum to unlock the Lord's Sanctum door. You will see a pit immediately with a Imperial Guard on the other side, jump over the pit and proceed straight east, killing all the guards and archivists along the way, eventually you will turn north and proceed past more guards. Continue on until you reach a room with 2 Imperial Guards and 2 Imperial Archivists standing on a square block of obsidian in the middle of a room, clear the room and on the northern wall you will find a desk with Rytheran's Untranslated Journal (13 day timer) to the left of it. Pick up the untranslated journal and take the surface portal to the west.
Portal back to Zaikhal and hand the Rytheran's Untranslated Journal to Danira the Dusty to receive your reward.
You give Danira the Dusty Rytheran's Untranslated Journal
Danira the Dusty tells you, "You recovered Rytheran's Journal? Excellent!"
Danira briefly skims the pages of Dericostian runes.
Danira the Dusty tells you, "Unfortunate... The journal provides little information about where he has hidden the Book of Eibhil. I suppose it was too much to hope for. Still, this book has done much to illuminate the undead lord's thinking, and it shows us he is intimately involved with the ley line disturbances and the rise of the graveyard... Oh, what has Rytheran unleashed?"
Danira the Dusty tells you, "I thank you for this. I'll provide you with a translation of the text, for your own edification, and some practical knowledge "
Danira gives you Rytheran's Journal
