Gravestone
|
- The party lands at (100,224) and navigation points to the Gravestone at (141,221). Only the Party Leader has to talk to it.
- Select Waited for me? to accept the task. The voice marks 13 gravestones on the floor and navigation moves to (85,216).
- Who are you? replays the story and Cancel. leaves without starting anything.

Gravestone
|
- Touch the 13 gravestones spread over the first floor until one hands over the
Pendant of Spirit.
- Only one gravestone holds it. The rest answer that they can feel nothing but gloom.
- Carry it back to the Gravestone at (141,221). As Party Leader the pendant is taken and Ancient Hero's Soul appears at (176,119).

Ancient Hero's Soul
|
- Only the Party Leader can run the ceremony. Read 1. What is Essence of Fire?, then 2. What is a Token of Apostle?, then 3. What should I do?, and only then 4. I am ready.
- Option 4 does nothing unless all three earlier options were opened in that order. The other members only need to be in the party, they have nothing to do here.
- Confirming starts the clock. The hero has to become substantial within the hour, warnings come at 30, 40 and 50 minutes and the whole party is pushed out of the instance at 58 minutes.
- Twelve Bobbing Torch light up and 15 Apostle of Baphomet spawn around the central hall.

|
Bobbing Torch
|
- Only the Party Leader can collect
Essence of Fire. Any other member who touches a torch loses 50% of their HP and gets nothing.
- 12 torches are up and 10 are needed. The leader may hold 11, so exactly one spare is allowed.
- Every torch is marked on the minimap and disappears once looted.

Apostle of Baphomet Apostle of Baphomet
|
- The apostles clone themselves, so every kill drops one
Token of Apostle to whoever landed the kill.
- Every party member has to be holding one before the gate. A token is only consumed by its own holder at the gate, so it cannot be pooled.
- There is no respawn on the first floor, so every token has to come from these 15 kills. Losing one to a disconnect ends the run.

|
Ancient Hero's Soul Sealed Gate
|
- The leader returns to (176,119) holding 10 Essence of Fire and 1 Token of Apostle. The Essence is consumed and the sealed gate opens at (281,12) in the southeast corner.
- Every member has to touch the gate personally. It takes every Token of Apostle that member carries, then warps them to the second floor at (80,144).
- A member without a token is refused at the gate and has to be left behind.

Main Altar
|
- Navigation runs from the landing point to (79,62) through the second floor corridors. The Main Altar at (79,65) is the trigger.
- As Party Leader talk to the altar. Unsealed Baphomet spawns at (79,64), the altar crumbles and the hero begins the briefing.

|
Magical Seal
|
- Baphomet is invincible from the start. Five Magical Seal altars sit around the arena: centre (79,81), 2 o'clock (123,109), 4 o'clock (123,22), 8 o'clock (35,21) and 10 o'clock (35,109).
- Only one seal is lit at a time. The centre lights 26 seconds into the fight, then a random seal lights every 70 seconds and the lit one is marked on the minimap.
- Drag Baphomet within 10 cells of the lit seal and touch it. The seal burns off his invincibility for that window.
- Activating a seal costs 50% HP and 5 seconds of Stone. A character can only do it once every 3 minutes, and touching a seal while still locked costs 50% HP and 30 seconds of Stone for no effect.

| Tips
|
Unsealed Baphomet
|
- Baphomet only takes 1% of incoming damage, so his 350,000,000 health bar is worth 35 billion. Plan for a long fight instead of a burst.
- He is Large, Demon and Dark 3. Holy is the element to bring.
- He re-casts his invincibility about once a minute while idle, chasing or attacking, so the damage window is the gap between a seal activation and the next re-cast. Dump everything into that gap and reset.
- Three apostle nests on the second floor wake every 5 minutes and add 16 apostles each, 48 per cycle. They are noise unless the party is spread thin, and clearing them does not extend the seal timer.
- The seal phase is hard capped at 1 hour. Once the hero says the power of the seals is gone they stop lighting for good and Baphomet keeps his invincibility, so the fight is lost at that point.

|
Unsealed Baphomet
|
- Unsealed Baphomet is level 270 with 350,000,000 HP, Large, Demon and Dark 3.
- He spawns at (79,64) when the leader touches the Main Altar and starts invincible.
- His melee is heavy and he closes distance quickly, so keeping him pinned on a tank while the seals are lit is the whole fight.
- If nobody strips the invincibility he simply cannot be damaged, no matter how high the party's damage is.
