Despise
This dungeon is not connected to the main quest. Instead, Hermione, Terri and Efram task you with entering Despise to find the miner Adan, his gold delivery for the Royal Mint, and his journal. Once you have located the cave entrance to Despise in the Serpent's Spine mountains, descend the entrance stairs.

Level 1 On the first level, go forward to enter the mining complex, since the route to the right takes you to Heroes' Hole, a place were your survival chances early in the game are slim. Once inside the mine, first search Adan's storehouse, which gives you some more information about what had happened. You can search the mine as you please, and also mine the gold you find with a pick, but to advance you have to find the underground river in the west. Once down the ramp, you should start following a trail of gold nuggets to the west (always pick them up), until you reach a small crate with lots of gold and the journal of Sadon. Sadon writes that he has killed Adan. That's bad news for you, so you need to find his body now.

Level 2 Level 2 is more straightforward than the first one. Ignore all the side-caves, since they all are dead ends. Kill the ghosts that try to stop you, and go forward to the west until you reach a shallow, misty lake. Be careful, this lake is filled with slimes, which will take some time to get rid of. Alternatively, you can use one or two powder kegs from the first level here. Once you have cleared that problem, ring the bell to call Grimm Roeper the ferryman from the other side of the big lake. Pay two gold to cross. Once across, take the northern path and then further to the west to find the entrance to level 3 of Despise.

Level 3 Level 3 is big, but holds large rewards. Once there, stay on the right side of the river and descend the ramp to find Adan's body under a lit torch near the river. Take his journal and read it to the end to get all maps and the quest entry. Also, take all of the nuggets and gold bars in his crates. If you have taken all nuggets and gold bars so far in the dungeon, you should have the needed gold for the mint. Now that the main quest is finished, additional treasure can be found before leaving.

Cross the river behind the waterfall and quickly pass the lake (be careful, rotworms and zombies abound!) to reach the cave entrance in the west. Inside the winding, narrow cave, go the the right, past a cavern filled with a daemon and many skeletons. Past this cavern there is a set of traps. Be careful. Further down the winding corridor past multiple enemies is a small cave containing a magic shield and a magic sword.

Level 4 Level 4 can be accessed through a hole in the middle of the lake you just passed. It holds nothing but minimal treasure and three silver serpents.

Spider Cave
A small cave found south of the Lycaeum, the Spider Cave contains numerous arachnids and a few poisonous slimes. Spider webs abound, and these can be used to gather spider silk. A small gargoyle encampment that had been overrun by spiders can also be found in the depths. Make sure to check out the web-covered bodies and barrels for treasure. The dreaded Spider Queen can be found on the lowest level.
