The Dark Justiciar is a 3-part House Byron faction questline in Crimson Desert, available after liberating Demeniss in Chapter 8. A mysterious letter from Countess Azerian sends you to Hayscent Farm to kick things off, then northeast to Burnhand Quarry to eliminate Mazzul – a winged boss – and finally to Crescent Lake, where the Knightlord’s Sword and Hidden Treasure Map Piece 12 are waiting on a crescent-shaped island.

Starting the Questline
Lunar Judgment is a House Elemore, Demeniss faction questline. It is available after liberating Demeniss in Chapter 8.
A Secret Request
Description
A cryptic note was found at the farm, signaling a secret task from Countess Azerian.
Visit the Hayscent Farm in the west of Demeniss City. As you approach the farm, someone will give you Countess Azerian’s Secret Letter. Read it in the inventory.
The letter reads:
In the Righteous Inquisitor’s tribunal, there’s a man named Mazzul.
He is better known as the Dark Justiciar and was personally trained by Bastier.
He may not be a major threat now, but in time, he could become a serious obstacle.
We’ve confirmed he’s overseeing brimstone mining at Byron’s Burnhand Quarry.
If we strike there, we can eliminate him before enemy reinforcements arrive.
Once the job is done, make your way to Crescent Lake behind the quarry.
It’s a beautiful place, I think you’ll quite like it.
I’ll see to it that there’s something waiting for you to help you enjoy the view even more.
Head to Burnhand Quarry, defeat Mazzul in the quest “One Step Ahead” and liberate the place. He’s a big character with two black wings standing in the southeast of the quarry. There wasn’t a mission marker. Burnhand Quarry is northeast of your previous location, north of the Golden Trading Post. Mazzul is in the southeastern part of the quarry.
Reward:
Sanguine Knell
Ashad Plate Gloves
Golden Beer
Abyss Artifact
Crescent Lake
Description
Countess Azerian’s letter points toward Crescent Lake, where a hidden reward is waiting for you.
Go to the lake north of Burnhand Quarry. In the center of it is a crescent-shaped island, where you can find a reward: The Knightlord’s Sword.
Hint: The Hidden Treasure Map Piece 12 is on the stone table. This is also a location where Palmar Leaves grow!
