Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning Factions Walkthrough Part 26 – House of Sorrows Part 2: Speaker of the Dead, On The Hunt

While you are inside the House of Sorrows itself, be sure to get the sidequest, “On The Hunt” to complete and turn in before you defeat Cadoroc in the Crypt.

Speaker of the Dead
Head on forward from the Proving Hall. Go up the stairs in the next room and go to the left. Turn right and you will find Bisarane in the center of the Big Hall. You are directed to Saturnyn, the leader of the Tuatha's efforts to subvert the House of Winter.

Now, it is time to help things out. Find Taibreah who is in the southern part of the Midden, close to the Jump Point from the House of Sorrows. Talk with her to get her moving. Not too far from the start you will be attacked by 3 Boggart Plaguebearers. Follow her to the north, down the hill, where she is attacked by 3 Arcane Barghest. Shortly after you, likely, will be attacked by 2 Ancient Leanashes. Now go up the hill with her and to the east. She will arrive at the corpse and begin working her magic. This means time to defend her.

This starts with 3 Boggart Plaguebearers. After them come 2 Arcane Barghest. Third is 3 to 5 Boggart Plaguebearers and a Bog Thresh. Defeat them and Taibreah will complete her ritual. She points you to Sioran Crypt in the Drowned Forest. Head over to the far west and south to find the Drowned Forest.

Fast Travel to the Alfar Camp in the Drowned Forest to arrive as close as possible to the Crypt (if you have not found it already). Inside the Crypt, head north to the chamber and deal with the 3 Sprites, one of which is a Frost Champion.

*Do note that with Detect Hidden 5+ you can find a Hidden door that works as a nice short cut to Cadoroc. Going along this path, you will find 2 Giant Spiders in the first small chamber. In the second, medium sized, chamber you will find 3 Giant Spiders. After that, just head up the stairs to the north to find Cadoroc.

Head north out of the chamber and as it bends to the east, you will encounter 2 Boggart Zealots. Head into the chamber above them to deal with 4 Boggart Plaguebearers. Now head north and west into the next room. It has 4 Boggart Zealots in the first half and 3 more and a Bog Thresh in the second half of it. Follow the corridor southwest to the following chamber. There you will encounter a Boggart Zealot en route and 5 Sprites in the chamber, one of which is a Storm Champion. Go through the door toward the next southern chamber. In this one you will find 3 Giant Spiders awaiting your pleasure. Head west from there to reach Cadoroc.

Cadoroc
He says a few things then draws his faeblades on you. Keep him stunned to avoid any combos he can unleash. He will be aided by 2 Giant Spiders in this fight, up to a total of 5 Giant Spiders can be found in this chamber. Deal with the Spiders first as they can poison or web you, creating deadly opening for Cadoroc to exploit.

After Cadoroc has fallen, head south and east, to reach a wall. Look to the north to find a lever to reveal a secret door back to the entrance. Now just fast travel back to the House of Sorrows' main entrance to learn of events that happened while you were away.

On The Hunt
After you get this quest in the depths of the House of Sorrows from Malthon. Now you must search the Midden for 4 corpses. Head into the Eastern part of the Midden. Follow the path to its end and turn south. There you will find one of the four corpses. Cremate it then start to the southeast to reach the second corpse none too far from a jump point nearby the House of Sorrows. Now head to the northeast and jump off the Jump point nearby Tinehil to find the third corpse. Now just head to the west and up the hill to the north to find the fourth corpse. Now head to the southern portion, a bit to the west, to find Meathgra's Den.

Inside the Den head south. You will find Meathgra and 6 Pestilent Brownies. Just lay into them and it will be over quickly. After that, just head outside to find Malthon and complete the quest.
