Dialogue
 * "Many wander through their lives, neither committing to be good nor choosing to become evil. Have you considered the path of light? You could learn what it is to be a Monk, to be the bane of darkness.


 * In a place called Diviner's Ascent lives a foul demon, the Eater of Souls. Destroy this monster and set free those it has imprisoned within its belly. This will be your first step on the path of light."

Walkthrough
You can do this quest from Destiny's Gorge or Elona Reach. Map included is for path from Elona Reach. Just travel east and dodge/fight the scattered groups of Sand Drakes until you reach marker on your map.

Beware: The Eater of Souls is a Jade Scarab boss and prior to appearing you will be flooded by four spawns of four Jade Scarabs. The boss will only stay attackable for a moment, then will burrow into the ground until all the scarabs have been killed. Best to approach the spot on the map, have some spawn, pull them away and fight them. If you fight at the mark on the map you will be overwhelmed.

It is very helpful to have a minion master on your team, as scarabs have low health but there are many of them, thus building minons very quickly.
