Deep-Root — Nexus Portal

Deep-Root is a cavern located directly beneath Root-Whisper Village. The base of the cavern is flanked on either side by cliffs and the bottom is covered in a shallow pool, over the centuries it has become full of dangerous animal and plant life, such as numerous gas blossoms.

At the southern end of the cavern, up high, there is an Argonian-styled door which leads to the chamber containing the Remnant of Argon. It is only accessible through the Vakka Stone-powered Grand Nexus Portal.

The Remnant Chamber is a large circular room lined with fountains from which Hist sap flows and sits directly beneath the Hist tree in Root-Whisper Village. The Remnant of Argon sits in the center of the chamber, untouched since its use many centuries ago.

The Remnant itself is guarded by a Colossal Miregaunt, which forms around an individual who touches the Remnant — and tries to consume them.

Notes[edit]

  • Deep-Root is one of the rare locations where voriplasmic corpses are found with no nearby voriplasms controlling them.
