Navigation

Darkhaven Gates:

The Darkhaven Gates close overnight. If you are very low level this can pose a problem. There are a few ways to get out if you're unable to kill a guard for the key.

• Tagerte's Conveyances: For characters under Level 25 this store #3 s, #3 e, n from DH[] sells transportation tickets to 17 different areas, including a free recall scroll. Simply 'buy <area' to be sent to the area, and 'recite return' to recall back to DH.

• The Servant:

Along Justice Ave. typically between Vertic and Falcon is a Servant who will send you outside the north wall if you nod servant.

(Grey Aura) A short man dressed in ragged clothes stands against the north side of the wall.

This sends you along the trail outside of the DH in the NW corner of the city. Going #4 east would take you back to the North Gate of Darkhaven.

Sometimes they will prog when you enter their room. They do not need to prog to use their services however. They also give you a recall scroll.

The servant peers at you quizzically.
The servant wonders ''Ey you, what are you doing out here so late?"
The servant says 'Ohh, excuse me, I should have known from your ragged clothes, you must be a servant from the castle too! You looking for the
passage out? Give me a nod if you are.'

You nod in agreement to him.
The servant peers intently about the area, looking for thieves no doubt.
The servant says 'Right then, no one's looking. We kitchen servants use this passage to sneak out unused food to our families after dark.'
The servant turns his back to you, and moves his hand over the wall.
He appears to press down on a part of the wall, however as he is  blocking the wall, you cannot see where he presses.
As the servant steps away, several bricks suddenly move back behind the wall, creating a large passageway!
The servant says 'Right then, this here will take you just outside Darkhaven, and close to the Shadow Grove. Careful as you go through now...'
The servant grabs your arm and drags you with him through the passage!
The servant says 'Here we are, now you've got to find your way back in yourself. I can't be out of the castle during the daytime, and if the guards
catch me outside of Darkhaven I'm as good as dead.'
The servant exclaims 'Most of the other staff just use a recall scroll to get back in. Here, I've got a spare you can have. Take care now!'
The servant gives you a recall scroll.
The servant scrambles back through the passage, and it quickly closes behind him.
