| - A cutcene plays: you see 4 male barbarians mine. One barbarian miner named Billgor eventually hit's a rock, and a hole appears in the ground and the miner falls in it. The other three barbarians panic.
* Barbarian miner: We got to get some help! The Miner's come back with small group of other barbarians. You see some barbarians staring at the hole, one small grey bearded barbarian says:
* Thordur: Look at that hole, it's pretty deep... and dark!
* Durnu: Not to forget scary!
* Trongord: Haha, get out of the way, coward! I’ll handle this!
* Trongord walks to the hole, pushes Durnu aside and shouts:
* Trongord: JOE, BILL! ARE YOU THERE?!' No response.
* Durnu: I'm going to get some rope! Screen turn's black.
* Litara (present): My mother brought me to bed then as it was my bedtime. I didn't want too, but... The next morning I went out of my bed early, only to find out that: Billgor is standing next to the entrance of the stronghold, holding a beer. Various barbarians surround him.
* Billgor: ...and I found a gem at the depths, so big, it's bigger than my hand here! No! It was even bigger than my pickaxe!
* Barbarian woman: Wow!
* Peksa: Haha!
* Billgor: What are you laughing about?
* Peksa: Ha! I don't believe you at all. Remember when you saw "Hati"?
* Billgor: I was only a kid that time! And that white raccoon was very big!
* Peksa: And you remember when you saw "The Kendal"?
* Billgor: I couldn't help it, I was really drunk and Gunnar kept telling the story about the Kendal.
* Peksa: Oh come on, that animal wasn't even a bear! It was a fish!
* Billgor: SO?!
* Peksa: You just make a huge mammoth from a tiny squirrel! I bet that little gem is just as small as your brain!
* Barbarian miner: Oh, really? The barbarian Miner shows a large gem.
* Peksa: ...
* Barbarian woman: Wow! That gem is soooo big!
* Peksa: Grumph, it's still smaller than your pickaxe. The Miner drinks his beer.
* Billgor: Hey, barmaid, gimme a Black Skull Ale!
* Glorick: I want to explore that cave too!
* Trongord: I want too!
* Billgor: Ha ha! *hic* Don't think *hic* it’s that easy to find a *hic* gem.
* Bruno: So, maybe it's better to go together?
* Billgor: *hic* Would be good *hic* kid *hic*
* Kjell: Do you want another beer?
* Billgor: *hic* Not a bad idea *hic*. Bwarmaid, one Supergrog!
* Bruno: Let's go as a big team then.
* Kjell: Seems fine with me.
* Bruno: Kjell, you are a bit too young...
* Kjell: I'm only two winters younger than you!
* Chieftain Grondor: What's going on here?
* Kjell: A hole appeared in the middle of the town.
* Chieftain Grondor: Why do I know nothing about this?
* Gunthor: Because you were hunting last eve and you were pretty drunk in the long hall, so we decided to tell you when you would wake up. I still thought you were sleeping.
* Chieftain Grondor: Ha! I only had a few barrels of beer! What's that gem?
* Haakon: That is the treasure of beneath, Billgor found it.
* Chieftain Grondor: Does his son knows about this?
* Bruno: Yes, Sigurd does, however he's still busy with his Canoe.
* Billgor: *hic* why do I *hic* see two of *hic* you?
* Litara: Big bro, what are you doing?
* Glorick: I want to find a treasure in that hole.
* Kjell: We are going as a team!
* Bruno: No, you’re too young.
* Kjell: No I'm no-
* Chieftain Grondor: Enough! I will end this madness in name of my father, Gunnar, I say that no barbarian will enter this hole!
* Glorick: But Chief!
* Haakon: The Chieftain has spoken!
* Litara's mother: Litara, come, you need to wash some clothes!
* Litara (present): After I washed the clothes, nothing really interesting happened for 4 days. That night, I went to bed early. I then woke up be a strange sound...
* Litara: Glorick? Bruno? What are you doing?
* Glorick: Shhhh... Litara, we are going to find a treasure in this cave. Don't tell anybody. I will see you soon! Glorick gives Litara a kiss on her forehead.
* Glorick: See you soon!
* Litara: Bye! The cutscene ends.
* Litara: I never could think it would be the last time I would see him... I investigated the cave itself, but I couldn't find any clue about where he was. I thought he was dead, but...
* Player: But what?
* Litara: I have had visions lately, I see him. He's being captured by darkness... But he is alive. Can you please help him?
* Yes (progress the quest)
* Litara: Thank you!
* Player: Do you have a good place to start?
* Litara: I think you should investigate the stronghold down here. Here take this.
* Litara gives you a doll
* Player: What's that for doll?
* Litara: It was mine, you never know... Maybe it helps you?
* Player: Umm thanks... I will go and investigate the stronghold then.
* Litara: May the gods be with you! Enter the Stronghold of Security with a Ghostspeak amulet equipped. A small wisp will appear above the skeleton of a dead explorer. Harvest the wisp. While Harvesting the wisp will talk to you.
* Spirit: L-Litara? Is that you?
* Player: No, I'm [playername]...
* Spirit: Why did you have her doll?
* Player: She gave it to me.
* Player: Who are you?
* Spirit: I was once a living soul by the name Bruno... Now... I'm just a spirit...
* Spirit: I was with Glorick when we were looking for a treasure.
* Spirit: Should have listened to Chieftain Grondor...
* Spirit: We found something... at the depth's...
* Player: What did you find?
* Spirit: Can't remember... Shadows feed on me...
* Player: What do you mean?
* Spirit: They feed on me... on my thoughts... memories... eat my life force...
* Spirit: You must help me... No... Not me... I'm already nearing the death...
* Spirit: Ready to get harvested... You must... elp Glo... rick...
* Spirit: The... caught him... turns... one of them...
* Player: What do I have to do?
* Spirit: Find... the... other three... gems...
* Player: What gems?
* Spirit: The gem... like... Billgor... found... there... three... more... were taken...
* Player: Three more gems?
* Spirit: The... of... Ap...
* Player: The what? Can you be clearer?
* Spirit: No... My spi... fading...
* Spirit: Tell... Litara... loved her...
* Spirit: farewell...
* Player: Farewell. The wisp will disappear.
* Player: I should report to Litara. If you do not have the ghostspeak amulet equipped all the spirit say's is woooo woooo, however he will not fade away. Leave the stronghold and speak with Litara.
* Litara: And did you find something?
* Player: I actually found Bruno... Just at the entrance of the Stronghold.
* Litara: You saying Bruno was at the entrance all the time?
* Player: Only his dead body was... I managed to communicate with his soul.
* Litara: I never saw his dead body there!
* Player: That's strange, it was perhaps three steps away from the very entrance.
* Litara: That's strange indeed... But you said you could communicate with his soul? Can I do that too?
* Player: I’m afraid not, since his soul just passed on to the afterlife.
* Litara: May Bruno find peace in Valhalla. What did he told you?
* Player: He asked me if I was you at first, because of the doll you gave me. He then told me that "He was once a living soul". And he told that "He should have listened to Grondor". He found something at the depths, but he couldn't remember what as shadows did feed on him.
* Litara: Shadows did feed on him?
* Player: They did feed on his memories and his life force.
* Litara: Sounds terrible!
* Player: He asked me at first to help him, but then he told that I shouldn't help him instead I must help Glorick as he was nearing the death already.
* Litara: ...
* Player: He told me that Glorick was caught, he then started fading. He told me that it tried to turn Glorick into one of them.
* Litara: Who is "it" and "them"?
* Player: I don't know. He asked me to find 3 gems like the one Billgor found.
* Litara: There are other gems like Billgor?
* Player: He said so. His spirit then became even less visible.
* Litara: ...
* Player: His last words were that I should tell you that he loved you.
* Litara: ... Player, please go to Hunding and speak with him about the 4 gems. He's usually in the watchtower east of Gunnarsgrunn. I'm going to collect my thoughts.
* Player: Like divination?
* Litara: No, I just need to think. Go to Hunding, he's in the watchtower east of Gunnarsgrunn.
* Hunding: What business do you have in our village, outlander? Choose the option: Litara did send me.
* Hunding: Litara? What did she want?
* Player: She asked if there are any more gems like Billgor's gems.
* Hunding: Yes. Various people took a gem. There are 4 gems in total.
* Player: Where are they now?
* Hunding: Like I'm going to tell that to an outlander like you!
* Player: What can I do to change your mind?
* Hunding: Well... My bow is broken. You take my bow to Lowe in Varrock and I tell you about those gems.
* Player: I thought your tribe made their own bows?
* Hunding: Not mine, mine is made of a special kind of wood. So I can aim better.
* Player: Ok, can you give me your bow?
* Hunding gives you his bow.
* Hunding: Good luck outlander! File:Lowe chathead.png Take the bow to Lowe's Archery Emporium, the Ranged shop located east of the Square in Varrock. You can get there quickly by teleporting to the Varrock lodestone or using Varrock Teleport. Once you arived there speak with Lowe.
* Lowe: Welcome to Lowe's Archery Emporium. Do you want to see my wares? Choose the option: Hunding asked me if you could fix his bow.
* Lowe: Of course! Let me see. Ah I see, ha ha, he did it again! Lowe walks to his workbench.
* Lowe: Let me see...
* Lowe: Eh...
* Lowe: I'm afraid I can't repair this one. As you see, the wooden part of the bow is slightly broken, so I need to replace it completely. However, I'm out of the wood for it. Can you do me one small favour and bring me some wood? Normally I would go there myself but I'm over my weekly limit. If you have completed One Small Favour, your player will say:
* Player: (panic) It's not red mahogany wood is it?!
* Lowe: Red mahogany wood? No. Why?
* Player: Oh, eh... nothing...
* Lowe: Go to the general store just next to my store and ask for Wood #1.4.
* Player: Yes sir! Talk with the shopkeeper.
* Shopkeeper: Can I help you at all? Choose the option: Yes, do you have any Wood #1.4?
* Shopkeeper: Yes, I guess for a special kind of bow? You do not look that skilled with bows however.
* Player: What do you mean?
* Shopkeeper: Well, no offense but, you look more like a firemaker than a fletcher to me. We don't sell wood #1.4 to firemakers.
* Player: So, what can I do to prove that I'm a skilled "Fletcher"?
* Shopkeeper: Go to Wilfred, the woodcutting master that can be found in the forest north of Falador. And ask for 3 loads of "Special wood", then show me how good fletcher you are.
* Player: This is starting to get looking more and more like the cursed red mahogany...
* Shopkeeper: What do you mean? Never mind. Just fetch me the especial wood, so I can see if you are a skilled fletcher. I have the other tools you 'll need here in my store. Good luck! Talk to Wilfred north of Falador. Choose the option: The Shopkeepers of Varrock are asking me to get some Special wood.
* Wilfred: The shopkeepers of Varrock? They are already on their supply limit this month of special wood. However, I can give you some of this special wood if you show your woodcutting skills and chop 5 yew logs for me...
* Player: Sure!
* Wilfred: However, you must chop them on specific locations. The first log must come from the trees south of Falador, the second log from one of the three trees west of Rimmington, the third from the ruins of Edgeville, the fourth must be chopped north of Varrock's castle, and the last one must be chopped at the Lumbridge graveyard, in that order.
* Player: Why do the logs have to be specifically from those locations?
* Wilfred: Because it's a... ahem... part of my research. Yes, that's right it's part of my research!
* Player: Yeah, whatever. Chop the tree's like Wilfred asked in the right order and talk to Wilfred again.
* Wilfred: Thank you, ha ha, Larry was right! Oh, here is your special wood.
* Player: Thanks! Go back to the Shopkeeper. Choose the option: I have the special wood!
* Shopkeeper: Good, here take this.
* The Shopkeeper hands you some crafting tools.
* Shopkeeper: Now prove me your fletching skills by making a [random] of it. Click on the craft option of the log, do not click on the knife with the fletch icon underneath it. You will get a menu with a:
* Shortbow
* Longbow
* Crossbow
* Arrow shafts Click on the item you have made and choose the option: "Finish", the item is finished now. If you did choose to make the wrong item:
* Shopkeeper: I asked you to make a [Random], but you gave me a [Random] instead! Please, you must pay me 1,000 coins and make another [Random] for me. If you had the right item:
* Shopkeeper: Good, let me see. Ah, I love the details. It's a fine piece of craftsmanship! Here is the wood #1.4!
* Player: Wait, that's the same wood as Wilfred gave me.
* Shopkeeper: You have a sharp eye! Are you a ranger? I would suggest you to go to Lowe's Archery Emporium and buy the best ranged equipment there are! Or do you want to buy something from us?
* Yes
* Opens shop
* No
* Player: I'm going to Lowe's Archery Emporium!
* Shopkeeper: Heh, Lowe owes me a beer. Go to Lowe. Choose: I have the wood you asked for!
* Lowe: Good job!
* You hand Lowe the wood.
* Lowe: I'm going to fix the bow.
* Player: You might have to buy a beer for the Shopkeeper.
* Lowe: Alright it's finished! Please give me 100 coins.
* Player: Are you kidding me? I had to do all the work!
* Lowe: Umm... Just take the bow for free!
* Lowe gives you the bow.
* Lowe: Do you want to buy some other good quality bows or arrows?
* Yes
* Opens shop
* No
* Lowe: Goodbye. Go back to Hunding. Choose the option: Lowe fixed your bow.
* Hunding: Thank you, Lowe did a great work on this bow!
* Player: Yes, can you tell me about the Billgor gems now?
* Hunding: Like you know the gem Billgor found wasn't the only one. And there were 4 gems found in total. All gems were all slightly similar. I think the second gem was taken by terrified guard of Varrock.
* Player: Second gem? Can't you begin with the first?
* Hunding: The first gem was taken by Billgor of course!
* Player: Where can I find Billgor?
* Hunding: Valhalla. He's dead. Drunk to much one day. Billgor's son has it now.
* Player: Who is Billgor's son?
* Hunding: Sigurd, the canoeman.
* Player: Ok. Let's continue with the terrified guard of Varrock.
* Hunding: It was about 8 years ago.
* Player: What was the exact date?
* Hunding: I thought Rintra 1 of the year 161 of the Fifth Age. We all still had a hangover from the New Year party.
* Player: Maybe the Varrock Census might help here... (Only if you have read in the Census before)
* Hunding: I remember him to be very happy and he said that he would become a sailor. He would buy his own ship and fare the seas. Dunno his name. Maybe you can find out?
* Player: I don't think that would be that hard.
* Hunding: The third gem was taken by an old grandpa craftsman. He just came here to get some clay to make a nice urn he said. Some barbarians pranked him, telling that the cave was full with very good quality clay so he went down. He returned with another gem. He told he would start a guild.
* Player: That one is obvious, I know who he is.
* Hunding: I heard the fourth gem was taken by a small group of dwarves.
* Player: Can you add a little bit details?
* Hunding: Nope. I only heard rumours from it. I had my watchtower duty that day. Maybe someone else knows more detail.
* Player: Is that all?
* Hunding: That's all. Good luck with your quest.
* Player: Thanks, bye!
