Might and Magic VII: For Blood and Honor Hints

How can I get the soul jars from Castle Gloaming?

  • 1 of 11: You will get this quest from Sir Caneghem on the east side of Celeste, once you have completed the Walls of Mist quest.  He will send you to retrieve a case of soul jars from Castle Gloaming in The Pit.  You will receive 50,000 XP when you complete this quest.
  • 2 of 11: You can reach Castle Gloaming via some teleporters in The Pit.
  • 3 of 11: Head to the southeast corner of The Pit, walk through the teleporter there, and then turn around and walk through another teleporter two more times. This will lead you to the area where Castle Gloaming can be found.
  • 4 of 11: To find the soul jars, start by heading west until you reach a room with two levels.
  • 5 of 11: If you're having trouble with the creatures here, try heading up to the second level.  It appears that they turn on each other quite readily if they accidentally hit one another, and as full as this room is, that's very easy to do.  You can just stand up on the second level and for the most part, the monsters will be so busy attacking each other that they won't even notice you.
  • 6 of 11: Then, head to the north and turn to the west when the hallway curves.  You will find the soul jars off this room.
  • 7 of 11: Go to the second level of this room, and then take a set of stairs down on the west side of the room.
  • 8 of 11: The soul jars are located in a chest in that room at (-9367, 6418).
  • 9 of 11: If those are too tough for you to get, you might be able to find them at another location.
  • 10 of 11: Think where the soul jars come from.
  • 11 of 11: You can get a case from the Warlocks of Nighon.  This is properly part of a quest on the Path of Dark, but the jars appear to be available on the Path of Light as well.  (I make no guarantees that they will be available to all players, though, since it may just be a bug that leaves the soul jars here for both paths.)
