Locked Gate in the Nameless Ruins (unofficial name) is a Hidden Exploration Objective located in The Chasm: Underground Mines. It consists of finding nine Orb of the Blue Depths. Finding all 9 orbs will allow the player to unlock the gate inside the Inverted City in the Nameless Ruins, which grants the Wonders of the World achievement CREDE TENEBRIS.
Inside the room there is a Mysterious Letter, one 
Exquisite Chest, one 
Precious Chest and one 
Luxurious Chest.
Locations[]
The Orbs can be collected before ever starting Requiem of the Echoing Depths, but the Archon Quest must then be completed in order to access the Inverted City.
The player must find and defeat the nine named Shadowy Husks scattered across underground mines. Two of these, both Windcutters, are accompanied by additional Shadowy Husks; the remaining seven are by themselves.
- Haltaf: The Young is a Shadowy Husk: Standard Bearer located east in The Serpent's Cave. He is surrounded by Dark Mud, which can be cleared out.
- Skeld: Augur of the Mirrors is a Shadowy Husk: Defender located in a locked room west of the Ad-Hoc Main Tunnel. Use
Miner's Key to open the gate, which is obtainable from a narrow passageway north of The Serpent's Cave. Some Dark Mud is near him that will fall from the ceiling when approached, although he is still out of range of it and the mud respawns even when cleansed. - Edgetho: Breaker of the Oath of Silence is a Black Serpent Knight: Windcutter located in the middle of the Underground Waterway. He is accompanied by a Shadowy Husk: Standard Bearer.
- Hyglacg: Rebuked Servant is a Shadowy Husk: Line Breaker located downstream of the Underground Waterway.
- Serkir: Scribe of Swords is a Shadowy Husk: Defender located south in the Nameless Ruins.
- Buliwyf: Guardian of Desolation is a Black Serpent Knight: Windcutter located east in the southern room of the Stony Halls. He is accompanied by a Shadowy Husk: Defender and a Shadowy Husk: Standard Bearer.
- Roneth: Banished Knight is a Shadowy Husk: Defender located east in The Glowing Narrows.
- Herger: Jester of Bloody Tears is a Shadowy Husk: Line Breaker located north-west in The Glowing Narrows.
- Rethel: Slain of the Split Bow is a Black Serpent Knight: Windcutter located in the tunnel leading west of The Glowing Narrows.
To reach the treasure room, teleport to the upside-down waypoint in northern Nameless Ruins, climb up the southern wall, keep going south all the way until descending to a lower level. Go further south and activate the device with the orbs to open the sliding door.
