[edit] Walkthrough
Leave from the Gate of Secrets towards the Domain of Secrets and meet Keeper Kauniss just outside, he will join your party as an ally and move off to lead your party to the Atrocity Library. The library is in fact at the center of the margonite stronghold just south of the Gate of Secrets, however Kauniss follows a very long-winded route to get there.
The main enemies along the way are Margonites, Graven Monoliths, Shadow Army creatures, and at the end of the route, a mob of Shiro'ken Assassins will spawn as well.

[edit] Dialogue
[edit] Initial dialogue
Keeper Kauniss
- "Escort me through the Domain of Secrets, and then protect me while I cast an incantation. While we cannot defeat the Hunter, I can cast a spell to cover your trail so you may escape his grasp."
- Accept: "If this is the only way to deal with this being, so be it."
- Decline: "Cowering behind clandestine enchantments isn't the stuff of heroes."
- When asked about quest: "Protect me on our journey and I will cast a spell to cover your tracks."
[edit] Intermediate dialogue
Keeper Kauniss, when spoken to in Domain of Secrets:
- Keeper Kauniss: "There must be another way..."
After Keeper Kauniss reaches the center of the Atrocity Library
- Keeper Kauniss: "It is done. The Hunter can no longer follow your scent. It is time the Hunter became the prey."
[edit] Reward dialogue
Keeper Kauniss
- "It is done. The Hunter can no longer follow your scent. It is time the Hunter became the prey."
[edit] Notes
- This is the third of a four quest sequence: Holding the Line, Know Thine Enemy, Cover Your Tracks, and Open Season.
- Keeper Kauniss does not appear to activate until the party moves within aggro range of him. As a result, it is possible to avoid him at the start, clear the route to the Atrocity Library, and then return for Kauniss to ensure his survival. It might also be advantageous to enter the zone from Gate of Madness and work your way back to Kauniss.
- Beware of Keeper Kauniss wandering off during battles. Whenever he is not directly engaged by the enemy, he will just continue his route, making him a vulnerable target.
- Chests might spawn in Keeper Kauniss path, making the quest impossible to complete.
