After venturing inside the lost city area (and observing the darkness envelope the desert), the tainted sun quest will be activated, and a new entry appears in the quest log. You're told to speak with Drognan back in Lut Gholein about the strange desert darkness. Return to Lut Gholein using the waypoint system or simply use a town portal to open a route back to town. Speak with Lut Gholein to receive the quest objective: explore the claw viper temple and discover the source of the curse. Act II, Quest III Log Entry #2: Destroy the serpent altar in the claw viper temple beneath the valley of snakes. After receiving the objective from Drognan in Lut Gholein, use the waypoint system to return to the lost city area (or the far oasis if you haven't already activated the lost city waypoint). Alternatively, you can make the long journey on foot from Lut Gholein. Take Lut Gholein into the rocky waste, then through the dry hills, past the far oasis, into the lost city and its second section (use the staircase), and through the valley of the snakes to locate the entrance to the claw viper temple. If you used a town portal scroll to return to Lut Gholein, simply use the portal to return into the shrouded desert.
Once you enter the claw viper temple, make your way down to its second level and locate the altar. Destroy the altar to complete the tainted sun quest. Be sure to recover the Horadric amulet, which completes part of the Horadric staff quest, the second quest in Act II.
Destroying the altar ends the curse and the desert darkness. Return to Lut Gholein at your first opportunity (by waypoint, town portal scroll, or by foot) and speak with Drognan, Cain, and the other townsfolk in Lut Gholein to complete the quest. Act II, Quest III Completed Message from Drognan "You did well in destroying the Claw Vipers. We are all glad to see the sun returned to its former glory."
