Defiled Temple
The Defiled Temple (also known as The Temple of Selûne) is a location in Act One that serves as one of the entrances to the Underdark.
Overview
An old temple dedicated to Selûne, which has since been abandoned, the Defiled Temple can be accessed through its main door in Priestess Gut's quarters in the Shattered Sanctum X: 253 Y: -7, through a cave mouth in the spider pen, or through a small hole in the Zhentarim's stock room.
Gut's room
Inside a small bedroom is Polma (and Gut if the player character was knocked out by her). In a gilded chest near the bed is an 
Amulet of Misty Step X: 386 Y: 8. As well, a 
Selûnite Journal is found nearby, which gives information on the moon tile puzzle further in the temple.
Moon tile puzzle
A long descent down into the Underdark can be revealed by solving a puzzle in this room. In the north-eastern section of the Defiled Temple is a room with four tiles in the centre. The puzzle is solved by rotating the tiles such that the new moon icons (black circles) are all on the southern-most ring.
- The puzzle can be solved by interacting with the tiles in the following sequence: (note that this is only one of many possible solutions)
- North

- Alternatively, there is a hidden lever in the north part of this room, near a set of stairs, that can be revealed with a Perception check X: 442 Y: 64. This lever can be lockpicked to bypass the puzzle and open the way.
