Walkthrough
Getting started
- Speak to King Shareen in the Grand Tree (Make sure you have two empty slots to start the quest). Accept the quest to get a Translation book and a Bark sample.
- Travel to the island east of Yanille - fairy ring code: CLS. You may also use the minigame teleport for Nightmare Zone or the Fishing Trawler, a Watchtower/Yanille teleport, the Ardougne cloak Monastery teleport and run south-east, the Castle Wars teleport using a ring of dueling then running east. If teleportation is to no avail, another manual option is to Charter a boat in Brimhaven to Port Khazard then run south passing the Fight Arena and head to the east of Yanille where the small island should be located.
- Talk to Hazelmere, he will take your Bark sample and give you a message.

- Return to King Shareen. He will ask what the message says. Tell him:
- Head south. At the bottom of the ramp, turn east and go up the ladder to speak with Glough.
Investigation
- Return to King Shareen, and he will tell you that Glough has caught a human. Ask to see the prisoner.
- Talk to the prisoner Charlie on the top floor of the grand tree. Make sure to finish the entire conversation!
- Go to Glough's house. Search the cupboard, and you will find his journal.
- Talk to Glough and wait to be arrested.
- Talk to Charlie, he will tell you about the Shipyard on Karamja, the password is Ka-Lu-Min.
- The king appears and tells you to escape using the Gnome glider on top of the tree.
- Travel with the glider.
Karamja
- The glider will crash near the Ship Yard. Run east past the level 53 jogres to the Ship Yard gate.
- Open the gate and tell the worker Glough sent you, then give the password Ka-Lu-Min.
- Find the Foreman on the southern dock. Kill him or talk to him to get a Lumber order.
- If you talk to him, he will ask you some security questions.
- Take the Lumber order to the king. (Teleport into the stronghold or get Femi to sneak you in, costing 1,000 coins if you didn't help her earlier). The king will not believe you when you show him the Lumber order.

</mapframe>
- Speak to Charlie again on the top floor of the Grand Tree.
- Speak to Anita up the stairs west of the swamp, north-west of the Grand Tree. She will give you a key.
- Go to Glough's house, and use the key to open the chest and take the invasion plans. Make sure to complete the dialogue window to receive the plans!
- Take the invasion plans to the king. He will give you four letters made of sticks (you'll need 4 empty inventory spaces).
- Climb the watchtower in Glough's house (tree in east part of his house). Use the sticks with the four pillars to spell out TUZO. If you are under 25 Agility eat your summer pie now.
- Bank if needed and prepare for the battle, then go down the trapdoor.
Encountering the Black demon
- After you enter and talk to Glough, a level 172 Black demon will appear and attack you.
- Immediately after the cutscene ends, run to the tile directly north of the ladder. The Black demon will become stuck behind the mithril rocks in front of you as he approaches. Attack with Ranged, Magic, or a halberd.
- Warning: The demon will despawn after a while if it is not killed within 10 minutes exactly. If this happens, you'll have to exit through the ladder in the centre of the cave and go through Glough's trapdoor again.
- Kill the demon, walk along the passage until you find King Shareen standing by a ladder.
- Talk to the king and he will ask you to locate the last Daconia stone. Fully complete the dialogue otherwise you cannot continue.
- Search the roots until you find it (make sure to click continue on the dialogue when you find the stone).
- Talk to the king one last time.
- Congratulations, quest complete!
