Xardas' Tower
Guided by Saturas in Chapter 4, the protagonist ventures into the Orc lands to seek the advice of the renegade necromancer Xardas. To gain entrance past the gatekeeper demon, three guardian golems blocking the surrounding paths must be eliminated so their elemental hearts can be presented as proof of power. Once admitted inside, speaking to Xardas progresses the main questline toward the Sleeper's sanctuary and unlocks him as a high-tier trainer and spell trader.
