The 19 quest steps

  1. 1Talk to Meriana

    Dialogue · Meriana

    The Black Dragon has recovered his Ebony Dofus. Killed more than five centuries ago by a White Dragon during the war between Amakna and the Crocodyls, he is said to have been reincarnated. To obtain this Dofus, you will have to give him what he wants most: to find his son. A potion now lets you teleport directly to Meriana's.

    Dialogue

    1. “Let your joy burst out at the thought of reading a long epic written in small print”

  2. 2Read the legend of Crocoburio

    Go down to the basement of Meriana's house through the trapdoor, then click on the books on the right side of the room: you open The Legend of Crocoburio. Son of the Black Dragon and Crocabulia, Crocoburio received the legendary sword Crocobur from his father, set with a regenerating gem. He was struck down by the army of Bonta, while the Black Dragon succumbed to the White Dragon.

  3. 3Go back to see Meriana

    Dialogue · Meriana

    Go back upstairs. When he died, Crocoburio's soul was absorbed by the Crocobur sword. His father reincarnated him without knowing in what form: to find him before he does, you must first find the Crocobur sword, then restore its power.

  4. 4Try to pull out the sword

    Dialogue · Crocobur

    In the swamp, click on the sword stuck in the rock and talk to Crocobur to try to pull it out: it's impossible. Click on the sword again to examine it: a magic sign is engraved on the rock.

    Dialogue
