Quest Overview
- Important: You must have completed the flagging portion (Flame Trials/Guardian Statue Riddle) of the Castle of Lord Mhoire Quest to access this quest.
- If you plan to solo this quest, you may want to bring a melee defense or frost protection rare.
- A shield helps GREATLY and can reduce damage even from the apparitions down to 10-12 per hit when attacked from the front rather than taking 100+ per hit
- This quest was updated in Balance of Power with a 4-use Legendary Key replacing the Mhoire Castle Treasury Key.
Walk Through
- Enter the the northeast tower of Mhoire Castle and speak to the Shade of Terelev.
- Enter the Mhoire Castle Great Hall portal, run down past the Ancient Throne.
- Keep north until you find the portal to the Oubliette of Mhoire Castle.
- The Defender's Mark of House Mhoire burns with blue flame and you are transported to the Oubliette of Mhoire Castle.
- Note: This dungeon is not loggable. You will end up at the lifestone if you logout.
- Collect 10 Mhoire Oubliette Portal Glyphs by killing any monsters inside the dungeon.
- Tip: While collecting glyphs, you can also collect 20 Red Veined Grubs for the Red Veined Grub Collection Task (side quest).
- Note: You will need more of these glyphs later in the quest, but the portal will take all of them in your inventory when portaling, so you cannot stock up.
- Once you have 10 glyphs, work your way through the dungeon until you find the Deeper into the Oubliette portal.
- The Defender's Mark of House Mhoire burns with blue flame and you are transported to the second level of the Oubliette of Mhoire Castle.
- You hand over all of your Mhoire Oubliette Portal Glyphs.
- Note: If you do not have 10 glyphs in your possession, you will not be able to use the portal.
- Run through the dungeon, evading the random Incantation of Lightning Bolts shooting toward you from the walls, until you find the Deeper into the Oubliette portal.
- Tip: Wear a weapon or shield with an aegis affect to absorb the damage if you get hit.
- In the next stage, you will once again need to collect 10 Mhoire Oubliette Portal Glyphs by killing any monsters inside the dungeon.
- Once you have all 10, continue once again, to the Deeper into the Oubliette portal.
- The Defender's Mark of House Mhoire burns with blue flame and you are transported to the fourth level of the Oubliette of Mhoire Castle.
- You hand over all of your Mhoire Oubliette Portal Glyphs.
- In the next section there are creatures, but you do not have to collect glyphs to move to the next section. Simply run through and take the portal.
- Note: Beware of the Blinded Apparitions, they are hollow and can kill you easily. If you don't run into them, they will not attack.
- Again, you must collect 10 Mhoire Oubliette Portal Glyphs by killing any monsters inside the dungeon and use the portal to get to the next stage.
- The Defender's Mark of House Mhoire burns with blue flame and you are transported to the sixth level of the Oubliette of Mhoire Castle.
- You hand over all of your Mhoire Oubliette Portal Glyphs.
- In the next stage, you will find a maze of hallways, including a series of jumps going both up and down. It's mostly linear, so follow it through until you reach another portal.
- Lockpick Bonus: There is a Chorizite Chest along the way in this section.
- The Defender's Mark of House Mhoire burns with blue flame and you are transported to the Oubliette of Mhoire Castle.
- In the final stage, work your way through a mostly linear dungeon, with jumps going both up and down until you reach a large room where the boss, Hovoros the Shadowed resides.
- Have your group jump down, and clear the skeletons without attacking the Blinded Apparitions.
- Tip 1: The Blinded Apparition only aggro when provoked in this dungeon. You can easily make your way to the main room with Hovoros the Shadowed, passing Apparitions along the way.
- Tip 2: It is advised not to use weapons or items that proc with ring spells (i.e. Replica BloodScorch and/or Great BloodScorch), as they will agro the apparitions.
- Tip 3: If you accidentally make the apparitions go agro and you are alone you can run back to the last jump, leap up one level and wait on the ledge until they ignore you and then you can try again.
- Note: Killing apparitions is redundant as they respawn rather quickly. If you do decide to kill Apparitions, a good shield prevents a lot of damage.
- Kill Hovoros and loot a Corrupted Spectral Page from his corpse (drops 8).
- Note: Hovoros will occasionally drop a Blackened House Mhoire Cloak (rare drop).
- Return to the Northeast tower of Mhoire Castle and speak to the Shade of Terelev for your reward.

Lore & Dialog
Shade of Terelev tells you, "Though many ghosts and undead trapped in Castle Mhoire have been purified and freed, the corruption laid on this place by Rytheran seeks to more firmly root itself in our midst."
Shade of Terelev tells you, "In ancient days the House was betrayed by one of our strongest Archmages, Hovoros, who succumbed to Rytheran's temptation of power. Although the corruption that empowered him prevented him from truly being slain, he was thrown into the deepest chambers of the Oubliette of House Mhoire."
Shade of Terelev tells you, "Now the corruption manifests within him, taking the form of a spectral page of magical text. He is using the corruption of this page to torment and tempt spirits here. I ask that you travel into the Oubliette, destroy Hovoros, and bring me one of these pages so I might purify it."
Shade of Terelev tells you, "Search for the entrance to the Oubliette behind the throne room and down into the lowest catacombs under the castle."
Shade of Terelev tells you, "I sense the corruption of the spectral page upon you. This must mean you have destroyed the traitor and have taken his corrupt power from him!"
You hand over all of your Corrupted Spectral Pages.
Shade of Terelev tells you, "With the purification of this page and its terrible magic the onslaught of corruption will be slowed to a trickle. We could not approach the Oubliette for fear of madness, but the plans of the traitorous Hovoros have been foiled thanks to your heroic efforts! Let me reward you."
You have been awarded the title Master of the Mhoire Oubliette!
You've earned 1,695,225,700 experience.
You've earned 40,000 Luminance.
Shade of Terelev gives you 4 Ancient Mhoire Coins.

Shade of Terelev tells you, "You have proven yourself a great champion with the destruction of the traitor Hovoros. I salute you."
