How do I get to the Dark Passageway and the Afterworld?
  • 1 of 3: There aren't any entrances to them in Arslegard City, like there are with the other three indoor areas.
  • 2 of 3: The Dark Passageway is what the gatekeeper teleports you to when you first come to Arslegard on the quest to restore the Jarls' dead armies. You have to go through it before you can even enter the city.
  • 3 of 3: As for the Afterworld, Skraelos (who's in the Hall of the Gods) teleports you there when you talk to him and agree to light the Six Fires of Penance.
