To Start:
Speak to Arianwyn in Lletya.
Instructions:
  1. Talk to Arianwyn in the large building on the east side of the village, and agree to help out stopping the evil plans of mourners who want to take over the Temple of Light. He'll ask you to visit the mourner base to see whether the key required to access the adjacent tunnels is ready yet.

  2. Put on nothing but your full mourner outfit, then head over to the house north-east (house number 5 in the picture below) of West Ardougne.

    West Ardougne Map

  3. Enter the trapdoor (located in the west room of the house), and talk to the Head Mourner. He will ask you to look for a lost digging team and will give you a "New key" (If you lose this key, search the head mourner's desk for a new copy).

  4. Use the key to access the digging area and follow the path southwest. You will pass Level 105 Dark beasts which may attack you, but you can't hit them unless you have the correct Slayer Level. Protect from melee is strongly recommended.

  5. You will eventually reach an area filled with dead slaves, at which point you are prompted to go and speak to Arianwyn.

  6. Arianwyn tells you to go and find a sample of Darkened crystal from the temple. So, head to the bank and grab your chisel since you'll need it to get the sample.

  7. Head back to where you found the dead slaves in Step 4. Continue heading west and go up the first stairs you see. From here, you should head south two pillars, and climb up the ladder. Go north and take the second opening on the left. You should see some stairs to the north, go down these, then go up the stairs directly to the north. Run as far east as you can, then to the south you will see the black crystal, use your chisel on it to get a sample, then head back to Arianwyn.

    Black Crystal

  8. After you talk to Arianwyn about the black crystal, he will summon Eluned to have her replace it with a new one. Use the black crystal on Eluned; she will take a few moments to create a copy of it. Talk to her again and she'll give you the new white crystal. Once you have it, talk to Arianwyn now who will ask you to take it to the old altar at the end of the temple to put it back in the black crystal so the safeguards can be restored.

    White Crystal

  9. Near the entrance to the temple, search the dead slaves and slave guards until you get a colored wheel and Edern's journal. The first crystal is yellow so you need to get the beam to glow yellow in the blue door, since yellow is opposite of blue on the color wheel.

  10. Go upstairs into the temple. Head east all the way till you come across a "Crystal Collector" (looks like a lever) that contains items. The collector has two options: Pull Crystal Collector and Collect Crystal Collector. Pull the collector, then select the third option to collect all items that it contains. You should have 4 hand mirrors and a yellow crystal in your inventory upon collection.

TIP: Floors can be reset if something doesn't come through as expected. Going back to the collector and pulling on it will reset the most recent door started. Lost or destroyed crystals will appear back in the collector tray rather than the original chests.

First Door (Blue)

  1. Insert a mirror into the pillar near the collector, then search it and rotate the mirror, making the light go north.
  2. Go to the next pillar to the north and insert a mirror, making the light go west.
  3. Head to the next pillar to the west and insert a mirror, making the light go south.
  4. Go south to the next pillar and insert the yellow crystal.
  5. Head south again and insert a mirror in the next pillar, making the light go east to the blue door.
  6. Climb on the wall support to get across the gap and enter the blue door. Search the chest for two more mirrors and a cyan crystal.

    First Door

Second Door (Magenta)

  7. After this pillar, go up the ladder right next to it and insert a mirror, making the light go west. The light will pass through a wall that will change it from cyan to blue for you.
  8. Now head back down the ladder and go as far south as you can to another ladder in the wall just like the previous one.
  9. Once up, go north a little until you get to the double stairs in the center. Use them to reach the north side and then head west then north to get to the other side of the blue light.

  11. Finally, go back to the east stairs near the collector and go to the bottom floor. Go to the northwest corner and go through the yellow door. Once through, rotate the mirror towards the other yellow door, go through it, then follow the corridor around to the east and search the chest. After searching the chest, return to the collector. Note: You must get a fractured crystal from the chest

    Important Note: Do NOT reset the system / pull the lever. Simply continue on with next steps (Fourth Door), otherwise you will lose your progress so far.

  4. Go west one pillar and insert the newest fractured crystal. It's the one that is split vertically, not horizontally, with the smooth side to the east. You can check to see if you put in the right one by seeing if there are four beams coming out of the pillar.
  5. From this pillar, go west a pillar, north a pillar, and then east a pillar and insert a mirror. Make the light go up by having the wide side of the mirror to the North/South and the short side of the mirror to the South/North.
  6. Go back to the collector stairs and return to the middle floor. Head all the way north to the pillar next to the ladder and insert the yellow crystal.

  8. Go back to the ladder you came up by and go down it to the middle floor. Run all the way to the other side and go up the ladder on the south wall to return to the top floor. Now go north and take the double stairs across. From there, go west and then north to where the red light is hitting the pillar.
  9. At the pillar, insert a mirror and make the light go south.
  10. Follow the red light south until you reach the next pillar, then insert a mirror and make the light go east. A built-in mirror will then reflect it down for you from there.

  17. Head back east two pillars and insert a mirror, making the light go west.
  18. Go west a pillar, insert a mirror, and make the light go north.
  19. Cross over to the north side using the double stairs and then insert a mirror in the east pillar, making the light go west.
  20. Move west one pillar and insert the blue crystal. The blue light will be reflected down by a built-in mirror once more.
  21. Return to the double stairs but instead of crossing them, take the west one down to a cyan door.
  22. The red beam should enable you to go through. Enter it and then rotate the mirror in the pillar to make the red beam go west. The door to the altar located west of the pillar will now be open.

    IMPORTANT NOTE: Whenever you want to leave, make sure you re-direct the red beam from west to east (180 degrees)! All you need to do is rotate the last mirror back so the light hits the cyan door! If you forget to do this, you can get to the death altar by using the underground pass or your wicked hood!

    Note: You can also get to the death altar through a shortcut in the Underground Pass. A quick way to get to the Underground Pass shortcut is to teleport to Lletya with a teleport crystal, then go through the cave to the Underground Pass which you come out of to start Regicide. After this go down the well once, then through a big door to get to the place with the Iban Desciples. Fail to jump a gap then you'll be at some soulesses. Go south to get to the place with the dwarves and buildings, and behind the buildings will be a staircase within the wall.
