Starting out

Adventurer camp

Warrior

• Warrior: Hello there traveller.
• What are you camped out here for?
  • Player: What are you camped here for?
  • Warrior: We're looking for Zanaris...GAH! I mean we're not here for any particular reason at all.
  • Who's Zanaris?
    • Player: Who's Zanaris?
    • Warrior: Ahahahaha! Zanaris isn't a person! It's a magical hidden city filled with treasures and rich.. uh, nothing. It's nothing.
    • If it's hidden how are you planning to find it?
      • Player: If it's hidden how are you planning to find it?
      • Warrior: Well, we don't want to tell anyone else about that, because we don't want anyone else sharing in all that glory and treasure.
      • Please tell me.
        • (Same as below)
      • Looks like you don't know either.
        • Player: Well, it looks to me like YOU don't know EITHER seeing as you're all just sat around here.
        • Warrior: Of course we know! We just haven't found which tree the stupid leprechaun's hiding in yet!
        • If the player has lower than 45 combat and either 31 Crafting or 36 Woodcutting:
          • Before starting this quest, be aware that one or more of your skill levels are lower than what is required to fully complete it. Your combat level is also lower than the recommended level of 45.
        • Start the Lost City quest?
        • Yes.
          • Player: Leprechaun?
          • Warrior: GAH! I didn't mean to tell you that! Look, just forget I said anything okay?
          • Player: So a leprechaun knows where Zanaris is eh?
          • Warrior: Ye.. uh, no. No, not at all. And even if he did - which he doesn't - he DEFINITELY ISN'T hiding in some tree around here. Nope, definitely not. Honestly.
          • Player: Thanks for the help!
          • Warrior: Help? What help? I didn't help! Please don't say I did, I'll get in trouble!
          • Player: So let me get this straight: I need to search the trees around here for a leprechaun; and then when I find him, he will tell me where this 'Zanaris' is?
          • Warrior: What? How did you know that? Uh... I mean, no, no you're very wrong. Very wrong, and not right at all, and I definitely didn't tell you about that at all.
          • (End of dialogue)
        • No
          • Player: Right... Well good luck with it.
          • (End of dialogue)

        • (Same as below)
  • What's Zanaris?
    • Player: What's Zanaris?
    • Warrior: I don't think we want other people competing with us to find it. Forget I said anything.
    • Please tell me.
      • (Same as below)
    • Oh well. Never mind.
      • Player: Oh well. Never mind.
      • (End of dialogue)

    • If it's hidden how are you planning to find it?

Leprechaun in a tree

Talking to Shamus before starting the quest

• Shamus: Ay yer big elephant! Yer've caught me, to be sure! What would an elephant like yer be wanting wid ol' Shamus then?
• Player: I want to find Zanaris.
• Shamus: Zanaris is it now? Well well well... Yer'll be needing to be going to that funny little shed out there in the swamp, so you will.
• Player: ...but... I thought... Zanaris was a city...?
• Shamus: Aye that it is!
• How does it fit in a shed then?
  • Player: ...How does it fit in a shed then?
  • Shamus: Ah yer stupid elephant! The city isn't IN the shed! The doorway to the shed is being a portal to Zanaris, so it is.
  • Player: So I just walk into the shed and end up in Zanaris then?
  • Shamus: Oh, was I fergetting to say? Yer need to be carrying a Dramenwood staff to be getting there! Otherwise Yer'll just be ending up in the shed.
  • Player: So where would I get a staff?
  • Shamus: Dramenwood staffs are crafted from branches of the Dramen tree, so they are. I hear there's a Dramen tree over on the island of Entrana in a cave
  • Shamus: or some such. There would probably be a good place for an elephant like yer to be starting looking I reckon.
  • Shamus: The monks are running a ship from Port Sarim to Entrana, I hear too. Now leave me alone yer elephant!
  • The leprechaun magically disappears.
  • (End of dialogue)

• How do I get to Zanaris again?
  • Player: How do I get to Zanaris again?

The island of Entrana

Cave monk

• Cave monk: Be careful going in there! You are unarmed, and there is much evilness lurking down there! The evilness seems to block off our contact with our gods,
• Cave monk: so our prayers seem to have less effect down there. Oh, also, you won't be able to come back this way - This ladder only goes one way!
• Cave monk: The only exit from the caves below is a portal which leads only to the deepest wilderness!
• I don't think I'm strong enough to enter then.
  • Player: I don't think I'm strong enough to enter then.
  • (End of dialogue)
• Well that is a risk I will have to take.
