Notes
- Before the related quests are active, this ruin will be inaccessible. During the Strange Noises quest, the door to Ancient Ruin will become viable and at the beginning of the Another Door quest you will be able to use the door leading to Vassa Tarnabye.
- This ruin doesn't have an exterior, since it can only be accessed from Polle Gold Mine's Lower Shaft.
Zone 1: Ancient Ruin
You will first enter this zone from door C alongside Marks or Rogkuroth gro-Budok during the Strange Noises quest and face the four zombies in the first room. Until the Eulius brothers discover a secret door during A Little Help from my Friends, you won't be able to proceed further. For the rest of the quest-related walkthrough, refer to the above quest page.

Zone 2: Vassa Tarnabye
You will initially enter this zone from door D, which is located on an upper level than the two other doors. You will find yourself walking on see-through metal grates and will therefore be able to observe the gate puzzle underneath you. The switches needed to activate it (cyan dots on map) are found on the wall directly in front of you. Refer to the related quest page for more information on how to solve the elaborate puzzle.
Once you've cleared a path, re-enter this zone from Polle Gold Mine, Lower Shaft through door F and then proceed to door E to enter the next zone.
