=={{PAGENAME}} Walkthrough==
[[File:Ssthrass.jpg|thumb|right|200px|[[Ssthrass]]]]Take the waypoint from the [[Hidden Camp]] to the [[Dahlgur Oasis]]. The exit from the Oasis to the Waterway is at the very top of the map. As you exit the area you'll run into [[Ssthrass]], a superunique [[FallenDeceiver]] conjurer. He'll raise some [[Doom Viper]]s as you fight.
Once you reach the waterway Kulle will appear and say, "I can open this gate for you.". Once in the [[Ancient Waterway]] [[Emporer Emperor Hakan II]] will appear and give you instructions to pen pull a couple of flow control levers. Head through the doorway to the [[Western Channel]].
[[File:Waterlogged-passage-covetous.jpg|right|thumb|150px|[[Covetous Shen]]]]Locate the exit for the [[Western Flow Control]]. This tiny area is really just a platform that contains a lever which you now pull to open a stairway down to the [[Eastern Channel]]. This channel has the same make-up as the Western. Look out for another satchel for the second part of [[The Desert Aqueducts]].
Locate the exit to the [[Eastern Flow Control]] where, again, you'll find a lever you need to pull which in turn opens a stairway back down to the [[Ancient Waterway]] where you saw [[Emperor Hakan II]] which now has an exit to the [[Waterlogged Passage]]. There you will come across a barrel with [[Covetous Shen]] imprisoned in it.
[[File:Crucible.jpg|left|thumb|150px|The Crucible]]There you will come across a barrel with [[Covetous Shen]] imprisoned in it. Do not break him out of the barrel immediately. Let him finish all his chit-chat - he has six different things to say - then break him out. For this you will earn the achievement [[Big Trouble in Talking Barrel]].
You can check under your achievements (Y) '''Challenges > Act II''' to double check you have heard all his chit-chat before freeing him.
Once it is broken, he will accompany you to the [[Hidden Aqueducts]], where you help him find the Crucible, an item that allows him to combine fragments of jewels. You'll come across his 'assistant-gone-bad', [[Gavin the Thief]]. A human with the [[Plagued]] attack. He's pretty easy to take down. Once he's dead collect the Crucible. [[Covetous Shen|Covetous]] will now return to the [[Hidden Camp]] to join your [[Caravan]].
You head out to the [[Ancient Path]] which is a tiny area that leads to the [[Desolate Sands]]. Look out for Traveler's Pouches on the ground as they contain entries of [[On the Desolate Sands]] required for the [[Historian of Caldeum]] achievement. Also look for [[Envoy of Belial]] corpses as they will contain entries to [[Deceivers' Orders]] required for the [[Eavesdropper]] achievement. You might come across some skeletal remains on the east perimeter of the level which will yield the [[Crumbling Journal]] required for the [[Judge of Character]] achievement.
Pick up Kulle's blood from two sections, the [[Vault of the Assassin]] and the [[Cave of the Betrayer]] level 2. After that, you go to town, talk to [[Adria]], and proceed on the Black Soulstone quest.
