Jade Empire Hints

Restore the Fountains of Dirge

  • 1 of 9: You get this task after you finish "Find the Abbot in Dirge" and the Abbot joins you as a follower.
  • 2 of 9: At the NW end of the bridge, take the narrow SW path so that you can read a scrollstand on your way to the first fountain.
  • 3 of 9: When you reach the fountain, you'll have a tough battle with several powerful spirits.
  • 4 of 9: TIP: You can occasionally put Abbot Song in support mode, then hit the Toggle Free Target Mode key and run around the fountain as he restores your health, chi, and focus energy. This is especially useful when there's only one or two enemies left.
  • 5 of 9: After it's over, you'll get a special fountain seal.
  • 6 of 9: Find the interactive part of the large, circular fountain and use it to place the seal.
  • 7 of 9: Take either of the two paths that lead up to the huge battlefield area to the north. Thankfully, you won't have to fight anyone there.
  • 8 of 9: Go through the now-open doorway along the area's northern border to talk to the Water Dragon spirit and then move on to the inner courtyard.
  • 9 of 9: Use the spirit font if you need to, then move on to the second fountain to find that a two-headed bull demon called the Minion of Suffering has stolen its seal.
