Managed to kill him in his room in Cyseal. Took nearly an hour. My melee and ranger both had only 7% chance to hit him, so I basicly tanked him and let my wizards do the job.

I still don't think this is the intended way. Perhaps his stats are bugged. But nethertheless it DID work for the quest.

You need Head of Titan near Temple of Death

I also talked to Cassandra, and then to Arhu. Told me she was a lich and I have to destroy her bones.
Around the temple of Death you have several talking corpses giving information like, you have to burn her bones, find a bridge etc in the temple. I've killed the statues (the death knight anti- invulnerable spell works on the invunerable statues too) and found 4 switchs (a rock, a litlle switch at the entry, another one on the other side on the floor, and the one near the chest.
Tried maybe two hours to search for other switchs, or any combo between them, and now I'm just fed up.
I'm just fed up to search for little tiny tiny switchs that you have to zoom max in to find anyone, and then try activating them in any order in hope that you can do something with them. It's just frustrating, it is not amusement at this point. It is maybe the third time in this game I am blocked in the story because I haven't found a little switch of 1mm² hidden in the bushes, I just want to give up...

You need to get down into the temple of death by using that teleporter in the middle of those sentinel statues. Just sling one of the teleporter pyramids on the platform and flip the switch to send it down to the temple then teleport to it.

I can't stand the switch hunting myself. Everytime I've been stuck in this game so far it's been because I missed one of those little switches somewhere.

As for killing Arhu, he's stomped me every single time I tried. Easily the toughest enemy I've seen.

I used the pyramids, magnificent workaround, burned the bones and killed Cassandra.. Now I have to enter the source temple and find Leandra, but she stole the rune from the forest spirit to enter the temple before me. So, how do I enter the source temple please? My log says I have seized the rune from Balberith, but I can't it in my inventory..

The rune is in the cabin in the swamp

Thank you, just found it, it was on the floor near the corpse of Balberith. Maybe I was too tired or trusted my log that said I already had it...

For those who have trouble defeating Arhu: I was level 20 and had 4 wizards. Summoned one fire elemental and occasionally some undead warriors but that is optional. Cast blind on him as often as you can, he will then skip his turn. Otherwise he will heal himself for quite a bit or do some heavy damage on your fire elemental but fail to kill him. Takes a bit of time but he only scratched my party once wiht melee. If he gets too close then teleport him away, dealing further damage. Otherwise keep using fire attacks/blind/and headvice. He is immune to stun so don't bother with that. Burning+poison+bleeding works fine though. Took me roughly 20 minutes.

Is there a way to solve this quest without having to kill Arhu? There was the quest with Ebenezer where there were multiple possibilities to solve it, I don't understand why the guardians, supposed beings of good would have to kill a nature-friendly mage for an evil lich to do a favor for two Sourcerer sisters, one of which is one of the main villains...it just seems weird to me.

For anyone who wants to kill Arhu in under 20 minutes:

Nullify Resistances (Man at Arms) is your friend. Cast that spell, then cast Inspire (Man at Arms), then cast Rage (Man at Arms), then nuke him to hell for 2 turns. Repeat until he's dead.
