Jade Empire Hints
Destroy the Mother
1 of 14: This is the task that you get if you complete the "Enter the Portal" task by choosing to destroy the demon.
2 of 14: When the Forest Shadow offers to teleport you straight back to the portal at the start of the heaven area, decline so that you can read the nearby bookstand. Also, you can fight more demons for XP on the way back.
3 of 14: Once you're back in the temple, make your way to the Pilgrim's Rest Inn.
4 of 14: If you didn't expose and kill the cannibals in the inn before (see the "Cannibals in the Inn" subquest), you'll have to fight them now.
5 of 14: Go to the south corner on the inn's raised walkway to find a newly opened secret door.
6 of 14: Just past it is an exit to the cave area that the "Mother" is in.
7 of 14: Move forward into a large cave full of cannibals. You'll have to fight them all after a brief conversation, but it shouldn't be very hard since they're so slow and clumsy.
8 of 14: Afterward, grant the guy who approaches you a quick and merciful death, then find the chest and lootable corpses in the NW nook.
9 of 14: Move on to the next cave area, where a handler will release several rat demons to attack you.
10 of 14: Loot the bones along the SE side of the cavern and in the north nook, then move on to the huge purple-lit cave room.
11 of 14: Cross the bridge to be attacked by a dozen cannibals on the other side.
12 of 14: After looting the bamboo cask in the SE nook and the chest near the NE corner, head down the passage in the NW corner.
13 of 14: You'll soon come to the cave with the Mother in it, and she's one mother of a demon!
14 of 14: When you make it back outside, the Forest Spirit will appear and talk to you, and you'll get a reward of 1500 silver and a Brilliant Gem of Balance (+4 to all primary abilities).
