{{PAGENAME}} is a Tier 5 Adventuring Area.

:*''As encountered first by Aren and Syenna in Blade of the Avatar, the Colossus of the Oracle is a key landmark of the Blackblade Mountains. Set amongst the shattered ruins of [[Alabastia]], the entire area is pretty dangerous, both from the fire elementals attracted to the shifting lava and the undead attracted to the treasures found within. Yet Alabastia holds its secrets well, and those who cannot solve its secrets will find why they have continued to be locked away all these years…''<ref>[https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/?p=72576 Release 42 Instructions]</ref>

|Quest= [[Reassemble and Use the Vermillion Lens]]
|description = Be careful, simply walking into or near will interact with the statues. Being aware of that will make this easier to solve. Why it is not simple 'E' to interact like the rest of the game is beyond me.

Additionally, you're going to come up against a lava flow ahead. I have no idea how to pass this alive while playing alone. It would be best to have a partner to pass this "puzzle", but solo and dead you can jump climb up the rocks to the right with some patience.

The Halls of Malice are filled with chambers that served as a final resting place. Above is a huge furnace room that lies in the heart of Malice where bodies would have been incinerated.
