• Speak to either dwarves on either side of the White Wolf Mountain. ( 1•2•3•1•1)…

  1	I was wondering what was down those stairs?
  2	Why not?
  3	If you were my friend I wouldn't mind it.
  1	Well, let's be friends!
  1	And how am I meant to do that?

  Note: Starting on the west side makes travelling by foot easier.
• If you need garlic, go to Seers' Village and take it from the house south-west of the bank (it spawns on the table).
• Bring a spade and make your way to McGrubor's Wood (either enter through the back or teleport to fairy ring ALS if you completed at least half of Fairytale II - Cure a Queen) to gather 3 red vine worm. You can collect them by checking the vine just west of the fairy ring ALS.
• Either walk south to Hemenster or teleport to the Ranging Guild via your combat bracelet and go north-west.
• If you don't have a Fishing Rod, purchase one from Grandpa Jack for 5 coins in the house outside Hemenster entrance.
• Enter Hemenster with the Fishing pass in your inventory.
• Put a Garlic in the pipes to the north. Make sure to finish the dialogue.
• Pay Bonzo 5 coins. Wait for the Sinister Stranger to move away from the pipes. Start fishing and wait for the contest to end.
• After winning the contest, make your way back to the dwarf and show him the trophy.
• Congratulations, quest complete!
