The 16 quest steps

1. 1Talk to Esra'Ruoy'Dnim

   Dialogue[-16,17] · Esra'Ruoy'Dnim

   Ask Uk whether he has finished reading the documents you handed him. While underlings deal with the others, he entrusts you with an Araknas Sacred Stone to find. It can be located using a diamond owned by a certain Lao.

   

2. 2Question Captain Grog

   Dialogue[22,22] · Captain Grog

   Talk to Grog about Lao, who knows him. He was not doing business with him: he was the victim. Lao can no longer set foot in Sufokia without being arrested, and is now hiding in Srambad.

   

3. 3Find Lao in Srambad

   Movement[5,2] · Lao

   Head for Srambad and go to the tavern. Talk to Lao about Wilscot's diamond: he agrees to give it to you in exchange for Prince Djamal Brecht's ashes.

4. 4Ask Liam Nesswiltee for information

   Dialogue[-24,39] · Liam Nesswiltee

   Go up to the library's upper floor and talk about the prince's ashes with Liam Nesswiltee. The prince is said to have been assassinated by the former king of Bonta, and his ashes would rest in his crypt, at the Cemetery of the Tortured.

   

5. 5Buy the recipe from Jerry Forj

   Items[-24,39] · Jerry Forj

   Jerry Forj makes an appearance and offers you the crypt key recipe for 5,000 kamas.

   • Prince Djamal Brecht's Crypt Key Recipereceived

6. 6Craft the crypt key

   Crafting[-77,-45]

   Buy a Sulphur Pouch in Frigost. Then craft the key with a Handyman of level 184 minimum: 1 Sulphur Pouch, 1 Agathe, 1 Pyrute and 15 Mandrake.

   If you lose the fight that requires this key, you will have to craft a new one to go back.

7. 7Defeat the Grave

   Combat[-13,39] · Grave

   At the Cemetery of the Tortured, enter the crypt and talk to the grave. The fight is solo. The grave summons four Steles at the four corners of the room; steles and grave are invulnerable.

   To lift the invulnerability, it seems you must end your turn adjacent to each stele, then adjacent to the grave.

8. 8Search the prince's crypt

   [-13,39]

   Go into the adjacent room and click the skeleton: you get the Arachnee Elixir recipe and an Arachnee Elixir already prepared, which is used for the following fights. Before leaving, click the pile of earth again to take the urn.

   The recipe is only useful if you lose an arachnee fight: an Alchemist level 184 remakes the elixir with 1 Big Phial, 1 Arachnee Leg, 1 Arak-hai Gland and 1 Drinking Water. Without an elixir, no new attempt.

9. 9Give the urn to Lao

   Items[5,2] · Lao

   Go back to the Srambad tavern and give the urn to Lao. He gives you the diamond and offers a toast: once the drink is down, you pass out.

   • 1 × Prince Djamal Brecht's Urnto hand over

10. 10Wake up in the cell

    Movement[-5,-15] · Dylan Leeth

    Talk to Dylan, who shares your cell: you were captured by Leng, who then makes an appearance. You wanted to steal his stone: you will be sacrificed. Drink the Arachnee Elixir to turn into an arachnee and slip through the small hole in the cave.

    • 1 × Arachnee Elixirto hand over

    

11. 11Escape the Arachnees

    [-5,-15]

    First tactical fight, solo. You are a small arachnee with 13 HP, 3 AP and 2 MP, facing bigger arachnees: get past the horde to reach the blue cell. Your spells: Arachnee Bite (hits for 2 adjacent, or heals you to full HP if you eat an egg), Summon Arachnee Egg (an egg of 6 HP on an adjacent cell) and Little Race (+2 MP and untackleable state, cooldown of 4 turns).

    The placements are fixed and the monsters always react the same way: follow one of the two methods below to the letter. In case of defeat, you do not lose energy: come back at [-5,-15] with an Arachnee Elixir and talk to Leng's Man to try again.

12. 12Method 1 for the first fight

    Turn 1: advance 2 cells to the right and summon an egg in front of you. Turn 2: Little Race, advance 4 cells as far right as possible. Turn 3: 2 cells diagonally. Turn 4: 2 cells to your right. Turn 5: 1 cell to the right, you break free of a monster's tackle. Turn 6: Little Race, 4 cells upward. Turn 7: summon an egg behind you and advance 2 cells upward. Turns 8 and 9: 2 cells diagonally to the left, each time. Turn 10: Little Race, and end on the blue glyph.

13. 13Method 2 for the first fight

    Turn 1: Little Race, advance 4 cells. Turn 2: 2 cells diagonally, an egg above you. Turn 3: another 2 cells diagonally. Turn 4: 2 cells to the right, the Arapex should come toward you. Turn 5: Little Race, go up 4 cells into the corner. Turn 6: stay put and hit the Arapex in melee. Turn 7: hit it again to kill it, then 2 cells diagonally. Turn 8: 2 cells, an egg on your left. Turn 9: eat the egg, then just 1 cell, a monster on the left would tackle you. Turn 10: Little Race, 4 cells to just in front of the blue cell. Turn 11: step onto the blue cell.

    The monsters' AI can make this method fail, especially on turn 7 if a Gargantula is stuck to the Arapex you eliminate.

14. 14Escape Leng's men

    [-5,-15]

    A second fight starts, solo, with the same spells. Get past the horde to reach one of the blue cells at the top of the map. Two brown glyphs make you invulnerable as long as you stay on them. The monsters summon potions surrounded by a white glyph, which only hits lightly.

    Each monster places a purple glyph on its adjacent cells: passing through it or starting your turn on it kills you instantly, except under Little Race. In case of defeat, no need to redo the first fight, but you need a new elixir.

15. 15Second fight method

    Turn 1: advance 2 cells and place an egg in front of you. Turn 2: 2 cells diagonally to the left. Turn 3: another 2 cells diagonally to the left, onto the invulnerability cell; eliminate the potion on your right if there is one. Turn 4: eliminate the potion on the right if there is one, then 2 cells diagonally to the left. Turn 5: Little Race, 4 cells straight ahead. The Leng can no longer catch you: go up calmly to a blue cell.

16. 16Bring the stone back to Uk'Not'Allag'

    Items[-16,17] · Esra'Ruoy'Dnim

    Once the fight is won, collect the Araknas Sacred Stone and take it back to Uk. The quest ends.
