Story
An ancient artifact recovered from the ruins of the palace after it’s decline has been stolen from the vault at Wesley’s bank. Kelly wants you to retrieve it from some not so friendly mages who are planning to resurrect the Emporer and turn him evil. They will attempt to demolish what has been rebuilt of Aston, including the Labyrinths. Destroying the Labyrinths would mean that the Imperial Army can no longer grow, as new adventurers rely on the power of the Labyrinths to fight Islena’s minions. If they succeed , the fate of all Astonians will be grim.

Quest Walkthrough
Kelly wants you to recover the Emperor’s Plaque. After completing Amazon Invaders you should be with Homden. From there head North to the corner of the map where you will find a hole. In this hole is the start of Caligar Palace.
Underground Passage
This is the first part of the Caligar Palace. Head out into the hallway and up through the north-west part of the corridor. Go into the seond door on your characters left. Go through these rooms until you reach a dead end. One of the walls here is fake. Go thorugh it and continue through the rooms until you again reach a dead end. The enemy in this room will have a key.
After looting the key head back out inot the corridor and head further north-west until you reach a locked door. The key you just picked up is for this door. Go through and proceed into the next corridor.
You’ll see a Skelton at the end of the corridor which is another fake wall. Kill him then proceed through the wall into another corridor. Kill the enemy here and then go through the north-eastern door and through to the second room. The enemy here has another key. Loot it, go back into the corridor and through the other door. The second room here has the stairs leading up to Calgiar Palace Level 1.
Level 1
Level 1 is a dark area so you will need some form of light. It is a maze like area populated only by Skeletons that are frequently hiding behind corners.
The goal in this level is to locate a Skeleton with a key that will give you to access to three other rooms with Skeletons that you need to kill to give you access to the room that leads to the next level. These Skeleons don’t have keys, when you kill each one you will receive a message to confirm. This means that if you are completing the quest with other people each of you must kill those Skeletons.
Level 2
Caligar Palace Level 2 is a puzzle type area. You will come across lights that when used will either teleport you to a room with Zombies with a teleport that will return you or open a hidden door to another section with lights. There are five sections. If you do use a light that teleports you to Zombies then the teleport will return you to the section you were last on. In the 5th section instead of teleporting you to a Zombies room it will teleport you to the beginning of level 1. After the fifth section you will come into a room with a red teleport and a Zombie. The Zombie has a key so kill him and loot it. Go through the red teleport to the next area.
From here go into the next room and kill the Zombie. This and the next two Zombies function similarly to the Skeletons on the previous level that give the unlock messages. So again, if you are completing the quest with other people each of you must kill these Zombies. After killing it continue though the next teleport and continue until you reach the stairs leading to the next level.
Level 3
This area is populated only by Vampires and is a cannon based puzzle area. The cannons always fire in set directions and fire very frequently. The cannons do quite a bit of damage but players in New World will be able to survive at least one hit from it.
WARNING: When moving boxes against the direction a cannon is firing the cannon shot may sometimes move through the box if you move the box at the same time as it reaches it. Players should be able to survive at least one hit so move it carefully instead of rushing it and if you do get hit stop and recover before continuing.
Kill the vampires behind the locked doors to open the final door as per the previous two levels.
Level 4
This is the final area of Caligar Palace. It contains Vampires, Zombies, Skeletons and three Boss type NPCs that each contain a piece to a key. There are also many fire traps in the main room but there is a pool of water in the room where you entered should you be on fire.
The fire traps are easily avoided as the spots that will activate are marked by lighter tiles. The enemies in each room can even be lured out into the traps.
After you kill the Boss enemy in each room and collected each part of the key put all the key parts together and then head into the south-western room, go into the next room and there is the chest that contains the Emperor’s Plaque. Return it to Kelly to recieve your reward.
