This area is home to Merrum, the nephil who knows how to get to Lysstak, which is where you should go when you finally want to start chasing his evil self down. First explore the SW- kill the scuttlers, then go down the passage, kill some more scuttlers, and grab a few minor items.

When you're ready to take on Lysstak, find and talk with Merrum. You'll have to go through some traps or pass by a nasty lizard, but Merrum is otherwise friendly. He'll disarm his traps for you if you ask him to do so. Of course, you can disarm them yourself for the xp. There's a secret door to the north, you can go up and kill the rats and grab the crystals. Head to the NW, then get on the platform. Prepare for battle then pull the lever. Kill the rats that jump down at you. If you're prepared you should be able to kill them all before they can hit you too hard.
