Instructions:

   • Erin the silver merchant in Ardougne
   • Droalak the ghost in Port Phasmatys
   • Dron the warrior in Relekka (brother of Blanin)
   
   
   
   
   

Erin

1. Talk to Erin (Silver Merchant) in Ardounge. He will tell you about his great grandfather, and that he had a strange key. Ask him if you can borrow it. He will agree and give it to you. The key changes temperature as you walk.
   
   
   
   
2. Now, go to Castle Wars. Cross both of the Northern bridges until you are around 4 steps North from the center of the second bridge. Continue to feel the key until it is steaming. You can not find the key when it is burning hot and can only dig for it once it says the key is steaming.
   
   
   
   Use the key with it and you'll get a journal.
   
   
   
   
   
   

Dron

1. Talk to Dron near the dock in northeast Rellekka.
   
   
   
   
2. He doesn't want to talk, so go to the east of the town to talk to Blanin, his brother. Blanin is east of the great hall in Rellekka near the butter churn.
   
   
   
   
3. Blanin will tell you the following things:
   
   • Dron wields an iron mace in battle,
   • eats rats for breakfast,
   • kittens for lunch,
   • bunnies for tea,
   • his favorite drink is red spider blood,
   • he's 36 years, 8 months and 21 days old,
   • studies the famous 4th and 5th age battles,
   • he lives on the north-east side of the town,
   • his brother is Blanin,
   • his pet is called Fluffy,
   • 5+7 is 12.
   
   
   
4. Go back and talk to Dron again. Say "I am after important answers". Tell him that he's famous, then answer all his questions with the answers above.
   
   

Droalak

1. Teleport or walk to Port Phasmatys. Near the general store you can find Droalak. He will ask you to make a Sapphire amulet for Melina.
   
   
   
   
2. Give the amulet to Melina. You can find her east of Droalak inside a house.
   
   
   
   She will feel complete and will disappear. Go back to Droalak and he will give you a scroll.
   
   
3. After getting all the info, go back to Jorral. He will give you a letter for the king, deliver it to him. He can be found on the second floor of Ardougne castle.
   
   
4. After he reads it he will accept the museum plans. Go back to Jorral and give him the reply letter. He turns it into a museum, and it will contain a book mentioning your name.
   
   

Quest Complete!



Note: After the quest, talk to Erin again and ask about the key. He will tell you that you can find treasure around runescape. Take a spade and key, and feel the key frequently as you walk around. Dig on the right place (same as when you were doing the quest) and you can get a random reward. You can add this key to your Steel key ring (reward from One Small Favor).
