To find an opening

To find an opening is a Dark and Darker quest assigned by the Miner merchant, part of the The Fire That Will Not End quest line. Before we confront Ignir, it would be wise to assess his current state. Please investigate the area around the great forge. Observe the condition of the flames and the flow of the lava, then report back. As Ignir is devoting his strength to expanding his control, he cannot be maintaining perfect command over everything. We must find that opening. The objective is to explore burning court. All progress requires a successful extraction — items retrieved or kills made during a failed run do not count toward quest completion. Once every objective is fulfilled, return to Miner in the lobby to turn in the quest and receive the reward. This quest requires completing Servant of Fire before it becomes available from Miner. Completing To find an opening rewards 300 XP, 150 Gold, Random Epic Armor. The quest is completed in Goblin Caves. Merchant quests in Dark and Darker are one of the most consistent gold and experience sources in the game, independent of loot luck on the Trading Post. Completing the full Miner quest chain unlocks higher reward tiers and increases merchant affinity, which can affect prices and open additional quest tiers in future seasons. The The Fire That Will Not End chain provides a structured progression path through the Miner quest tree, and finishing each quest in order is the fastest route to the higher value objectives later in the line. Use the MetaBot Dark and Darker quest tracker to check all open objectives across every active merchant before extracting, so you can turn in multiple quests from a single run and get the most value out of each session.

The instability in the flow of fire is an important sign. It likely means that Ignir’s power is being spread thin as he expands his dominion. We must act quickly.
