How to unlock the A Dangerous Ally achievement in UnderMine - Definitive Guide

There are 3 main steps to freeing Lillyth, and all occur randomly in Delvemore Dungon. I completed each step on a separate run. You might get lucky and be able to do all 3 steps in a single run.

Step 1:
You will randomly run across a bomb-able rock with an obvious "X" on it. You must bomb this rock and enter the secret area that is uncovered. After a long hallway, you will come to Lillyth's cell. There will be a non-aggressive mage and a knight guarding it. Do NOT attack them. I spoke to them both until all dialogue was exhausted. You may also need to speak to Lillyth through the bars. If I remember correctly, the mage will kick you out because you do not yet possess the key to the cell. This is supposed to happen.

Step 2:
You must find a room containing the gargoyle mini-bosses and defeat them. This is a single, specific room containing 4 gargoyle statue enemies that you must fight at once. This room was not a secret or hidden room. For me, this room appeared on Delvemore Dungeon level 4. It requires a standard key and will appear as a skull on your mini-map (just like a boss). The way that I knew I found it is there were 2 boss skulls on the mini-map. This seemed odd to me so I used a key on the 2nd skull room and it was the gargoyle mini-boss. I completed this fight very late in the game because I originally missed this achievement due to it's heavy RNG components. The fight was very easy for my heavily upgraded character. If you are having trouble, use bombs when they are in statue form. After killing the gargoyles, grab the Master Key off the pedestal. This will unlock the achievement:

Step 3:

You must find the randomly placed "X" marked rock again, like in step 1. Bomb the rock, enter the secret area. Go down the long hallway again and this time, use the Master Key to unlock Lillyth's cell. Speak to Lillyth until she gets teleported away by the mage. This will unlock "A Dangerous Ally" and Lillyth can now be found in the main hub area.

This is my first guide, please let me know if I can improve.

Update with some new info: According to Sherlocked4evr in the comments, you will have to find Lillyth a first time and talk to the guards before the gargoyles will start to possibly show up in your runs. I can confirm I had found her once before and talked to the guards without the key before later freeing her. I just didn't know that was a requirement.

Lillyth can be found in the Delvemore Dungeon. You should hold on to whatever bombs you get on your run when going for this achievement.

In order to rescue her, you'll first have to kill the gargoyle bosses, which appear randomly in Delvemore. If you find them on your run, defeat them to earn an artifact called the Master's Key. You'll also get an achievement for defeating them. It can be a tough fight depending on how many upgrades you have and which relics you found on the run. This battle is one of the reasons I recommended holding onto your bombs; you can use them to blow up the gargoyles when they turn back to stone for their healing phase, speeding up the battle considerably. However, you'll still need at least one more bomb for the next part, so try not to use up all that you have in the battle.

Once you have the Master's Key, be on the lookout for a single stone with a small "x" on it, which will appear somewhere in Delvemore. Blow up this stone with a bomb and a staircase will appear. Go down it, then head up through a few rooms until you see a door being guarded by two people. Simply walk up and unlock the door, freeing Lillyth and earning this achievement.

I think this may be missable; I've now completed the Halls and gotten all the characters and dogs besides Lilyth.

I finished the Dungeons on my second I've run; gone through the Dungeon like 20 times after that from start to finish now and have not once ever seen the Gargoyles.

Sorry to hear that. That's the problem with RNG. It's hard to know if you somehow missed your chance to get the achievement or if you're just having really bad luck. I hope it's the latter and you eventually find the gargoyles.

Have you met Lilyth first? You have to meet her first then it will trigger the next RNG event to happen which I mean the fight with the gargoyles so in total you have to find Lilyth twice. It may not happen on that life but most likely on the next life after meeting her and the guards. First time to talk to the guards and the second time to release her. Both times you can find her with a small X on a rock like that was stated above.

Definitely frustrating; I find it hard to believe they'd make an NPC and new blessings missable though.

Are the Gargoyles in a secret room? Or just a regular dungeon room?

The fat wizard dude to the left in the hub tells me "Arkanos freed Lilyth from her cell? You should avoid her'

Not sure if that's what he says before or after you find her.

@shelocked4evr That's EXACTLY what it was!!

Found the rock on stage 2 I think; gargoyles were on stage 4 the same run. Thanks a lot; that saved me a lot of frustration

Thank you Sherlocked4evr. I added your info to the solution. I had found her once before, I just didn't know it was a requirement.

If you don't save Lilith before you kill all five bosses. She will appear in the hub herself. Accordingly, the trophy for her release can only be obtained in a new save slot. So it’s worth leaving victory for one of the bosses until all the npc are freed.
Perhaps the same scenario will happen with other traders.

The entrance to Lilith is under a stone marked with an X; there will be no other such stones
