The Creator Ruins

A-To Fort Ilkard B-Cultist Attack C-Creator Ruins Entrance D-Volcanis Oak Seed

South of Fort Ilkard is a path leading to another former stronghold of the creators. On your way to the entrance, another group of cultists will attack you. Search the leader's body for another cultist's journal. Near the strange altar to the south, search the pile of stones for the volcanis oak seed for Linu.

The Creator Ruins: Present

At first, you will want to head straight for the garden. The guardian golems in the ruins are unbeatable, for the moment. You'll need to fix that. Talk to Sapphira in the garden. She will teach you the principles of time travel in exchange for a favor: Return to the past and plant the ultarg tree seeds in this very garden. Take the time crystal and return to the ruins.

Head for one of the two sundials. Use the time crystal on the sundial, and you will be transported to the past.

The Creator Ruins: Past

A-Sundials B-Lokar C-Golem Workers D-To Garden

You will enter at whichever sundial you use in the present. First, you'll want to talk to Lokar in the northeast corner. To speak with him, you'll need a Translation Amulet, which can be found on any of the Old Ones you fight in the ruins (you should also pick up a copy of On Temple Defenses). He'll give you his ring, which will make the other slaves more inclined to help.

Talk to all three of the golem workers. Lokar's ring will make them want to help you, and they'll add a single weakness into the guardian golems. Your choices are fire, cold, blunt, or piercing. You must speak to all three workers to weaken all three golems in the present. Choose your poison, then head up to the garden.

Talk to Morag. She'll attack, then vanish when she gets too wounded. Plant the ultarg seeds, then return to the present via the sundials.
