Castle Entry

Travel to Nektulos, then head west to Lake Nerius.
Get the quest from Retainer Ozval at the huts in the middle of Lake Nerius.
Obtain the castle quest ring from the Corrupted Kedgspawn in the top-left of the map, at /waypoint 2662,1229,-115. You will likely need to use /pick or create a private instance.
Visit Merchant Tyslin in North Felwithe and say "Ozval sent me". Make sure the item is in your bags before leaving.
Visit Merchant Rylin Coil in Ak'Anon and say "Ozval sent me". Make sure the item is in your bags before leaving.
Return to Ozval and turn in the two merchant items.
Visit the High Priestess of Ulkorruuk on the second floor of the Plane of Hate, at /waypoint -90,287,127. Hail her and say "swear". Make sure you are not hidden or sneaking, and confirm that the item is in your bags before leaving.
Return to Ozval and hand in the Blessing.
Follow the path north and click the gates to enter the castle.

Nektropos Library Key

Find the following four glowing items on the ground:

Item	Location
Harpsichord Black Key	Near the Game Master in the southwest.
Harpsichord White Key	In the storage area with lots of boxes in the northwest.
Harpsichord String	In the Tormentor room in the southeast.
Harpsichord Plectrum	In the Priestess of Ulkorruuk's room in the southeast.

Combine the four items in the piano in the main hall near Lord Ollix to obtain the Nektropos Library Key.

Quest Progression and Door Keys

Find Lady Sileniu Everling in the northeast of the second floor. Hail her and follow the prompts.
Return downstairs to Plimptos. Hail him, then say "crimes" and "brought back".
Speak to Alexa Everlin's Maid in the southeast area of the second floor to begin the next part of the quest.
Kill all of the sisters around the edges of the second-floor map.
Return to Alexa's Maid to receive the Great Room Key.
Kill Alexa in the southwest area just off the main hall on the second floor to obtain the Private Chamber Key.
Go to the northwest area of the second floor. In the Guard Captain's room on the west side, use the secret entrance behind the bookshelf to descend into the basement. Follow the corridor southwest, then kill the Juggernaut to obtain the Basement Key.

Defeating the Lord

Enter the room beside the Juggernaut and fight the lord:

Every 20% HP: The lord spawns a golem that greatly reduces the damage he receives. Kill the golem, ignore the zombies he summons, then resume attacking the lord. Repeat this cycle until the final 5%.
Below 5% HP: Burst down the lord while a horde of zombies and the golem spawn.

Finishing the Quest

Return to Plimptos and say "end". Plimptos disappears.
Return upstairs to Lady Everling and say "dead", then "Confess".
Kill Lady Everling.
Return to Lord Ollix and say "tragic" to finish the quest.

You should now be able to open all doors and kill all rares in the castle.
