Sacred 2:Graves of the Ancestors (Artamark's Gate)
Artamark's Gate is a city that's blessed (cursed?) with two distinct cemetaries. There's one on either side. On the east, there's the burial mound known as the and to the west there's Arenmark's Refuge.
On the northeast corner of Artamark's Gate there sits a rather large, cone shaped hill with a cave entrance on the south side. It also features a Stonehenge like structure on top. This is the cemetary for Artamark's Gate and gets it's name from a small marker on the right side of the entrance. There are a total of 8 graves inside, with two gargoyles and one sarcophagus. It's the site of a quest called Revenge!

Graves
- Here lie Hansel and Gretel, who perished after getting lost in the Ghost Cave.
- - Hansel and Gretel, stars of the Brothers Grimm Fairy tales, with the Ghost Cave referencing the number one spot for high level grinding in the original Sacred game. Energy beings like Ghosts will only drop jewelry, hence the popularity of this cave for farming rings and amulets.
- The attack of the killer tomatoes was nothing, it was the attack of the evil peas that did me in.
- - References the rather bad movie called "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes" (1978) which has gone on to become a cult classic movie. This is one of those movies that's so terrible you just have to laugh at the poor production quality, lack of professional special effects and the general look to the movie that makes you think they were operating on a budget of about $50 USD when it was made.
- Never name a hellhound 'Fido'.
- That toadstool omlet didn't work out.
- Of course I don't look busy - I'm dead.
- This would be funny if it hadn't happened to me.
- You'll just have to trust me... Gargoyles don't have a sense of humor.
- Mortality caught up to Mortaneous
Gargoyles
- In honor of the Spatula of Eternal Uberness - long may it flip.
- Help stamp out, eliminate and abolish redundancy!
Notes
In addition, there's a large stone memorial to the victims of the Ikarion Mine Disaster nearby.
