Stage 1 Minimum Level: 2498 Location:Tellroth Caverns (Sepulchre) (15, 3) Required Item: None Required Kills: 150 x Tellroth Caverns Necral

You've fought your way through the horrors this vast, deep catacomb is throwing at you but you follow the directions the Hag Fiend provided. They've not lead you wrong yet! She did seem to be vague about what awaited you in this section. As you see a truly gargantuan horde of undead Necral shamble towards you, you realise why. She hoped these abominations would stop you. These shambling horrors were no match for you, even in such numbers! However, you hear a few more moving towards you and realise these have a more measured and purposeful step. A much smaller group steps into the life and you see what looks almost like intellect in their foul, dead eyes.

Stage 2 Minimum Level: 2498 Location:Tellroth Caverns (Sepulchre) (15, 3) Required Item: None Required Kills: 15 x Tellroth Necral (Champion)	The shambling Necrals actually break into a creaking, loping run. You flick the remains of the other Necrals from your weapon and shield. Though these monsters are gifted with a spark of intellect by the vile mage who defiled their rest, they are still no match for your combat prowess. This "Dark Queen" shall pay for using the bodies of the dead in this manner.

Stage 3 Minimum Level: 2500 Location:Tellroth Caverns (Magi Camp) (6, 5) Required Item: None Required Kills: 50 x Tellroth Magus

A group of Tellroth Magi are focusing sorcerous power for their Mistress. They see you coming at an easy, measured pace, weapon bared and shield ready. They shriek and start throwing sorcerous bolts at you. You start to pick up the pace. The Magi start to panic and intensify the magical barrage. As heavy as their sorcerous assault is, it's no match for the enchantments on your own equipment and you are amongst them like a vengeful lightning bolt! You cut them down without mercy. Now. To find the leader of these accursed creatures.

Stage 4 Minimum Level: 2500 Location:Tellroth Caverns (Queens Quarters) (3, 3) Required Item: None Required Kills: None

You stalk into the Queens Quarters, cutting down anyone foolish enough to get in your way. Suddenly, you see her! The Dark Queen stand within her gloomy chambers. She beckons to you, showing no fear. The aura of power around her is palpable! You stalk towards the Dark Queen, weapon bared and dripping her followers blood. She holds out a hand, palm out towards you. You stop in place and cannot move forward. You strain against the magical bonds and the Dark Queen laughs.

Stage 5 Minimum Level: 2500 Location:Tellroth Caverns (Queens Quarters) (3, 3) Required Item: None Required Kills: 1 x The Dark Queen (Elite)

The Queens musical laughter fills to chambers. 'So this is the warrior I've been warned of by my benefactor? While you have certainly destroyed plenty of my constructs and underlings, I fail to see what is so special about you.' She walks around your straining form. 'Oh, I've certainly heard of your exploits through the aether, as well as more mundane methods. You vanquished many formidable opponents, like Xinderoth and Lishka. My spies have also tracked your influence to distant Karthak and beyond. Yet my binding spell holds you. Maybe you can see the power I wield and how coming here has become your doom?' She turns her back on you. You stain against the magical bonds and, as your rage builds, you feel her bonds slip. She spins around. 'Well, maybe there's more to you after all!'. She starts to chant but doesn't get to finish. With a final heave and a guttural roar, her magical bonds shatter and you surge towards the Queen like a berserker! She dives aside, casting spells at you but nothing she does works against the power imbued in your armor, weapons and very being. Her magic just cannot affect you. While she dodges and even draws a weapon of her own, it does not matter. With one last scream, mercifully cut short, you end the Dark Queens evil. With her death, there is an explosion of necromantic energy which sweeps out of the cavern and into the surrounding tunnel networks. You have a bad feeling about that. The rage starts to clear and you search the Queens quarters and find little, save the Queens Twisted Key. It looks like it will fit the key you got from the coven many levels above. It looks like there may be another piece. Strangely, the magical aura that you've been feeling has not lessened with the Dark Queens death. She mentioned a benefactor, you recall with difficultly, the earlier rage having clouded your mind. You suddenly feel like you are being watched. There's no one left alive in the area. Could it be this benefactor? You have a feeling that this is not over. You stalk from the Queen's chambers. You receive 'Queens Twisted Key' and 80,592,754 XP.
