In this location you will find the second of three main bosses on the Bitterblack Isle - the Dark Bishop. However, in order to get to him you will first have to deal with larger versions of zombie (without fire fighting them is nearly impossible). After walking down the winding stairs you will also find two knights: silver and a gold one. They don't differ much from themselves. It is important to focus all your strength and pawns on one of them at once since they can heal each other.

Finally you will fight the boss, Dark Bishop. On one hand it is quite a challenge. On another however, the battle is quite schematic and by following specific rules you shouldn't have many trouble with defeating him.

The boss is exceptionally resistant to magic attacks (excluding the dark magic) and elementals but he is quite vulnerable to many critical effects - Silence will make it impossible for him to perform stronger attacks , Torpor and Burn will be effective as well. He is fully resistant to poison. His attacks are very powerful, you cannot underestimate it - especially the attacks with large area of effect (explosions) and tornadoes which almost always will kill you instantly. The second enemy is a dragon. It is just a puppet controlled by the boss - it has small number of health points that drops after some time. Despite that, first focus your attention on him whenever he is resurrected because he has all the attacks of the Cursed Dragon, including the very dangerous petrification ability. You can stop Bishop from resurrecting the dragon by causing a very strong explosion while the enemy is casting - after that he will fall to the ground and become an easy target for short time.

When the battle starts, immediately jump in any direction to avoid the incoming dragon - he will fall after few attacks (notice that the monster has no heart that would be vulnerable to attacks, so you must mostly attacks its head). Then avoid all spells of the boss, but don't walk too far away from him. In case of some spells he will start flying lower and will be vulnerable to a melee attack - in that case use the strongest attacks, especially the ones that cause explosion, to stop the spell and the fall of the opponent.

The hardest and most important part is when Bishop is resurrecting the dragon and possessing its body. When that happens, he gains few new tricks and has more health points. However, when you defeat him then he will be forced to regenerate by laying for more than doze of seconds - during that time attack him with the whole party. You can almost with no trouble take 1-2 health bars of his during that dime. In that way the battle shouldn't take much time and effort.

Once the battle is over, in addition to being able to continue the storyline you can obtain the Dragon Forged upgrade for one part of your equipment and you will gain large number of valuable drop. You will also receive The Inquisitor achievement/trophy if it was your first time when you defeated that boss.
