General hints
Mainland dungeons:
- Dungeon Despise
- Dungeon Destard
- Dungeon Wrong
- Dungeon Hythloth
Oversea dungeons:
- Dungeon Deceit
- Dungeon Shame
- Dungeon Covetous
Enter the dungeons from their mainland entrance, go through the Altar Room and emerge from a different dungeon with oversea entrance. From there, either backtrack or use the Gate spell. Start from Dungeon Hythloth, because the White stone is required in all of the three Altar Rooms.
