 * Eternal Forgemaster in The Fissure of Woe

Requirements
 * The Eternal Forgemaster (quest)

Dialogue
 * "Menzies, Lord of Destruction, will not rest while we hold the Temple of War. There can be no doubt he will launch a new attack very soon. Balthazar will send new Temple Guards shortly. In the meantime, will you remain and fight the next wave of Shadow Army Invaders?"

Walkthrough
Immediately after you accept this quest two large groups of shadow creatures will spawn at the entrances to the temple, trapping you inside. They will start attacking the center platform soon, in small groups of two Shadow Beasts first, but the frequency of the attacks as well as number of attackers increase quickly. After the battle it may be necessary for you to leave the forge and fight one remaining (and particularly large) group which waited outside to finish the quest.

Make sure the Forgemaster survives! He will engage in the fight and also take heavy damage, but unfortunately he is not listed as an ally in your party configuration interface, so make sure a healer watches his health. If the Forgemaster dies you do not only lose the quest but are kicked out of the Fissure altogether.
