Players often stumble onto interesting locations in Grim Dawn’s world, and the ruined shrine sealed by Chthonic energies is one such place. You may be interested in the shrine’s purpose in the game but unsure of how to proceed.
If so, you may find some answers in our guide here! Continue to read to uncover the mystery of the ruined shrine.
What is the Ruined Shrine Sealed by Chthonic Energies?
The ruined shrine, commonly known as the Mogdrogen Shrine, is situated in the Asterkarn Valley and is a part of the Rhowari Legacy sidequest. As soon as you become a member of the Rovers’ Honored Faction, the quest should become available.
You only need to speak with Amkala in Old Arkovia to begin the quest.

In order to complete the task, you must gather a few things, place them in the shrine, and fend off several waves of Chthonic monsters.
How to Complete the Quest
Step 1
As previously mentioned, you must first travel to Old Arkovia and speak with Amkala to begin the quest. Of course, you must first ensure that the Rovers have honored your membership in your Faction.
Once you’ve acquired Rhowari Legacy, search for Runed Stones of Mogdrogen, find Spirit of Mogdrogen, and gather Ancient Heart.
- Runed Stones of Mogdrogen
Find the Runed Stone of Mogdrogen by going to the Ashen Waste. Keep an eye on the minimap since it comes in handy here.
- Spirit of Mogdrogen
The Forsaken Wastes is where the Spirit of Mogdrogen is located. Once more, you should use your minimap [1] to speed up the process.

- Ancient Heart
Here, you have a choice between searching your stash and farming it from beasts.
Step 2
Go to Asterkarn Valley as soon as you acquire the items, and then put them in the Mogdrogen Shrine there. Chthonic creatures will soon appear, and your only option will be to kill them.
Step 3
The Mogdrogen avatar will appear if you manage to survive the fight. Ask the avatar a question to receive your reward.
You are currently limited to those options when it comes to the ruined shrine of Grim Dawn that has been sealed by Chthonic energies.
