Darksiders 2 Walkthrough Part 29 – Heart of the Mountain, Part 1

After your talk with Eideard head on inside the Maker's Forge itself. You will find Karn in Tri-Stone for once just around. If you have been working on the DLC quest, “Lost and Found”, this will let you complete it. Take a moment to visit Alya to clear out inventory space and to look for new items that you might need. Head on forward to the South and through the back door of the Maker's Forge. Approach the Warden there and talk with it. Death can ask after the Foundry and the Wardens. If Death has restored Oran, tell the Warden this to receive his thanks. After the conversation the Warden calls to the stone to restore the bridge to the Foundry. The Pup will come and join you for this excursion as well.

Head over toward the Foundry. There are a few things to grab first. First, head over to the West, behind the Maker Statue. You will find a Boatman's Coin. Head to the opposite end to find a chest with some goods inside it. With those 2 things collected it is time to head into the Foundry and begin the quest inside.

The Foundry
Head South through the first room and continue straight on to the second. Pause in the room with the cauldrons passing by. Wait for a while and one will come by with a Stonebite on it just below the lip facing the entryway. Shoot it to claim a Stone of Resistance. Now head over to the East and jump down. Claim the chest then continue on to the South. In the next room start and keep going to the South and around to the Western side of the room. Karn will move forward and offer to help Death clear the gap. Approach him and interact to get the boost across the gap.

Run up the nearby Northern Wall to reach the high hand hold. Head to the left on it and at its end drop down to the beam below. Move to the end of it and get ready to grab the next cauldron that comes by. Look to the East and jump off the cauldron when you close in on the chest there. Even if you miss, Death should be nearby the chest. Collect its contents and turn to the South. Wall Run over there and take on the 3 Tainted Construct Warriors on the narrow ledge. Not a great combination but that is the fight. Once they are all down head back to the Southeastern corner. There is a lever there you need to throw. It clears the way for the nearby door that Death needs to go through next.

With this room head over to the Eastern side and Wall Run up toward the golden beam there. Have Death sit on it a moment to open the door for Karn. He will head across the room and brace himself underneath the door that was opened in addition to his own. Get off the beam and head through the door that Karn is holding open for you.

Head on forward to find the Guardian that the Makers are seeking. Karn does a good job of explaining things about why the Guardian simply stands immobile. After that talk it is time to seek out the temple and collect the 3 heart stones needed to complete the Guardian and bring it to life.
