"The Gidbinn is an enchanted dagger - a religious artifact greatly valued by the Old Religion, Skatsim." -Alkor

Blade of the Old Religion is the second quest of Act III. It's initiated after the player completes The Golden Bird and talks to Hratli.
Background
Edit
When Mephisto's Hatred spread across the countryside and corrupted the capital city of Kurast, the few uncorrupted survivors fled to the Kurast Docks. In order to protect the dockside from the forces of Evil, the sorcerer-smith Hratli created a magical warding spell that would hold the forces of evil at bay. However, the warding spell seemed to gradually lose its power. Only one ancient artifact had the power to reinforce the spell: The Gidbinn, an ancient blade from the old Skatsimi religion. Sadly, the Blade was lost when the corrupt Zakarum took over the country. The Blade is to be found if the denizens of the Kurast Docks hope to survive.
Walkthrough
Edit
The Blade is located in the Flayer Jungle, hidden within a village. Sometimes, The Gidbinn can be found near the entrance to the Flayer Dungeon. It is placed in a small altar-like construct. When players attempt ot retrieve it, the altar will erupt in flames. A Unique Flayer will spawn. Killing it yields the Gidbinn. Return it to Ormus to complete the quest. Talking to Asheara prompts her to offer the player the service of her Iron Wolves; talk to Ormus to receive a magical ring as a reward.
