# [Boss] The Old Guardian

**Quest No Raw**: 283352
**Chronicle (questGroupNo)**: 21208
**Entry (questId)**: 4

## Objective

I found a contraption that protects the ruins. Disable the contraption and take the core that controlled it.

_Interact with the Dark Portal and defeat the summoned Guard Tower;_

## Summary

This looks older than I thought.
I didn't think this contraption would function properly, as it's very old. 
The craftsmanship never ceases to amaze me.
We should be able to find out more about the entire ruins, now that we have the core. 
Thank you.
