[ Barathrum the Old ]

Strange, this, and imprecise, but as tinkers we know: a crude blueprint is better than no blueprint. You must return to Omonporch and enter the Tomb of the Eaters. Once inside, trace the errant paths cut into the mausoleum by robbers and vandals, and ascend to Resheph's burial chamber.

Barathrum the Old asks the player to disable the magnetic field preventing the Barathrumites from ascending the Spindle. To do so, the player must find the Mark of Death and ascend through the halls of the Tomb of the Eaters to reach Resheph's tomb.
