Take the small door from the stone cove instead of the large double doors to the mountain king. You can also get here by taking the door from the upper catacombs which says "To Lower Catacombs", but this is considerably easier.
Head southwest until you reach a building (pictured above). You can get a key to this door deeper within this dungeon on a dead body by a sign which says "Mythian Conventicler" or some such. If you don't want to go find that, you can cast create golem from the north side and have the golem break down the door, or you can climb the wall in the southeast corner.
Go to the grave and cast open ground. You'll find the Hearth of the Earth, which is used to bind Lithos.
