==Walkthrough==
There is an [[achievement]] to be earned here if you let the Blacksmith land the killing blow so if you have pets or any DPS skill it's best you don't use them here if you want the achievement.

After you've done that he'll send you off to find his grandfather, [[Chancellor Eamon]] who guards Leoric's crown. The blacksmith has a small request to find his apprentice and tell him to get back to town.
Head to the Northwest Gate which you'll find nearby when you get out of the cellar. The gates takes you through to the [[Weeping Hollow]]. Head north to find the [[Cemetery of the Forsaken]] in which you will find entrances to three [[Defiled Crypts]], one of which eventually leads to the [[Chancellor's Tomb]]. There is no way of knowing which one so head down whichever feels lucky. If you go down one that doesn't lead anywhere when you come across a teleporting stone (which transports you back to the cemetery) your character will say something to the effect of this not being the crypt you're looking for. If so head back up to the Cemetery and choose another crypt.
It's a little tougher down in the crypts compared to the Weeping Hollow. The Defiled Crypt is home to more [[Champions]] than you have come across and generally the mob packs are larger. [[Skeletons]], [[Ravenous Dead]], [[Hungry Corpse]]s, [[Harvester]]s and their [[Imp]] Spawn and [[Retching Cadaver]]s make up your foe.
[[File:Manglemaw.jpg||thumb|left|200px|Manglemaw]]TYou might run across one of two [[Events]] in these crypts, the [[Jar of Souls]] where you will see a tempting looking jar in the middle of a room or [[Matriarch's Bones]] when you will run across a ghostly woman weeping. They both have achievements attached to them. Check the links for details of what to expect when you trigger the events.
[[Tomb Guardian]]'s raise [[Skeleton]]s down here. Kill the Guardian's first as they are weak but they're not always easy to reach but if you don't kill them they'll just keep raising skeletons. They also attack with a ranged [[Arcane Orb]].
Collect the crown from the altar. [[Chancellor Eamon]] will appear when you do. He's a [[Teleporter]] with [[Knockback]] and he has a soul siphon effect which will slow you. Once he's dead you can collect the crown. For this you will be rewarded with a Town Portal ability. Use this (press T) to head back to town and speak with the blacksmith, [[Haedrig Eamon]].
If this is your very first character it's at this point the [[Blacksmith]] will begin working for you and you can use him to craft weapons and armor for you.
Speak to [[Deckard Cain]] for the next quest, [[Reign of the Black King]].
