Gaerlan the rogue Empyrean used 4 Cisterns across Dereth to fuel his Elemental magic. Delve deep inside the four Propylaeums and take a piece of the Prisms inside.
There are four Propylaeums, located near the remains of the old Essences of Magic. They are:
Empyrean Ice Propylaeum - 53.2N, 62.5E
Empyrean Fire Propylaeum - 73.5N, 2.6W
Empyrean Acid Propylaeum - 31.6S, 74.2W
Empyrean Lightning Propylaeum - 87.1S, 9.6E
Each dungeon has two rewards - a fragment of the elemental prism and a Bracelet. Return the prism to an Agent of the Arcanum and you will receive Experience, one or two writs if this is your first time through, and a craftable version of the prism. Once you have fragments of all four elemental Prisms, you can combine them into a Prismatic Plume, which can be attached to a Niffis Helm. The result is the Helm of the Elements, which would be very useful against Hollow Elementals (if they existed).
