Overview

When Kharvos Valadan fled into the Gate Chamber, he met with a nasty shock -- a group of giants who also intended to take control of the Gate of the Black Moon. 'Coyle' gained nothing but death from his betrayal of House Deneith. You must slay all the giants to prevent them from opening the Gate of the Black Moon and unleashing a catastrophe.

Spoiler Warning: Spoiler material below this point!

Objectives

Slay all giants in the Gate Chamber (Slay 5)

Tips and Misc

The first giant charges once the first party member enters, leaving very little time to buff before that fight. After that there is no rush and you can prepare for the next four, but be ready for the first one almost immediately.
If running this quest on Reaper – note that the quest completes as soon as five mobs are slain, including Reapers.
As the quest completes instantly after the fifth monster is slain, those wishing to use the Voice of the Master should equip it before beginning the final battle.
Given how short and easy this quest is, it is often window-farmed for loot.
After this quest and speaking to Zaveera one last time, the chain is complete; go back and speak to Sal Danek, in the eastern excavation to get your final chain reward.
