To Start: Talk to Eluned

Instructions:

1. Speak to Eluned, who can be found where Islwyn is marked on the map above. You may have to wait up to 5 minutes for her to appear. She will tell you that Arianwyn wants a meeting with you in Lletya. She offers to take you there so say yes. Your screen will go black and you will appear at Lletya.
   
   
2. She will give you a small crystal, "Teleport crystal (4)". This can be used to teleport to Lletya, You can recharge it. You take it to Eluned with 750 gp. She will recharge it but it will only have 3 charges instead of 4.
   
   
   
   
3. Talk to Arianwyn and he will tell you that he has noticed a lot of "Mourners" crossing mountain passes through Arandar. He says that the "Mourners" are infact elves from the city. He asks "Why are they heading to Ardougne in such numbers?". He thinks that they are up to something new, something that they could not have anticipated. Your "mission" is to infiltrate the "Mourners" and find out what they are doing.
   
   If you wear something other than the Mourner clothes, the guard at the door will not let you in. So for example if you are wearing an ammy or wielding a shield and/or a weapon he wont let you in. Simply unequip whatever is not Mourner clothing and you do not have to bank it, then he will let you in.
   
   
4. Head to the mountain region (Arandar) with the dire wolves and red spiders and kill a mourner. His attack will take you down to 20 hit points and reduce your attack, strength, defence, prayer, magic and ranged to about 20. He should still be easy to defeat. Drink your restore potion to top up your stats.
   
   
5. Now that you have his clothes, you need to clean and repair them. To begin cleaning the top, talk to Tegid in Taverley to learn about removing blood stains. Search the basket next to him for some soap, use the soap on the top (with a bucket of water in your inventory) to clean it.
   
   
6. Now you must repair the trousers. You need to take them to Oronwen in Lletya and she will repair them for 1 fur and 2 silk.
   
   
   
   Once you have everything repaired and washed it will look like this:
   
   
   
   
7. Next, go to West Ardougne, through the doors, then over to the northeast corner. You will see a house with many yellow dots in it. Be sure to wear the mourner outfit, then enter. Also if you re-equip whatever you unequipped while you are down near the Mourner Leader, the level 108 Mourners will attack you. You do not need to worry about the weaker Mourners on the upper level because they won't attack you.
   
   
8. Head down the trapdoor and go to the room with the head mourner in it, speak with him. He will ask for your recommendation letter. Show him and answer yes, yes, then no to his questions. He will talk until the end and give you a key and a broken device. He will then ask you to "break" the gnome and re-dye the sheep. Sheep 1 - Red
   Sheep 2 - Green
   Sheep 3 - Blue
   Sheep 4 - Yellow
   
   
   
   
9. Now go to the room next door and speak to the gnome. He will reveal that he loves toad crunchies. Go to gnome stronghold and buy/make some if you don't have them already.
   
   
   
   
10. Use a feather on him then use it on him again (it will show that you used the crunchies and feather the second time), then he says he needs a magic log and a soft leather. Note: Make sure you don't use the crunchies on the Gnome on a Rack before the feather, he will eat the crunchies and you'll have to go get more.
    
    
11. First release the gnome from the rack, then give him the leather and the magic log and he will give you a bazooka. Now for the ammo you will need blue, yellow, red, and green dye. You can buy dye from the Clothing Store in Letya (teleport with crystal) or the witch in Draynor Village.
    
    
12. Next go down to the chompys area with your ogre bellows (south east of Yanille and east of the Feldip hunter area). Now use one of your dyes with the bellows, then use the bellows with a toad. Repeat the process for three more toads and then go to Ardougne. Go to the northern bank to find the 'red' sheep. Load the bazooka by using the red toad on it, then equip and go to the attack styles menu to select "Fire and aim". Aim on one of the sheep by using the arrows around the red button, when you have the sheep targeted click the red button to fire. The green sheep can be found a little north of the red ones, the yellow south of the fishing guild and the blue a little west of the yellow sheep. If you are uncertian of what color to shoot at the sheep, simply examine them to see.
    
    
    
    NOTE: If you don't have ogre bellows, you can get more from this chest:
    
    
    
    
13. Now you have finished doing what the Head Mourner wants you to do, go and talk to him and he will tell you that nobody has got the plague in a while. He now wants you to find out:
    
    
    1. Who made the poison
    2. What with
    3. Learn how to make the poison
    4. Produce enough to poison alot of people
    5. Contaminate the food stores
    
    
    
14. Exit the house and grab a rotten apple from the spawn just west of it. Now go and talk to Elena (Her home is near the north gate of East Ardougne), you will tell her that you need to make a poison based on rotten apples. After a long talk she will ask you to bring her a rotten apple. Give it to her.
    
    
15. Elena will tell you that you need to mash up a lot of apples and then you need to dissolve the toxin into a liquid with a very low evaporation point, some form of solvent (tar).
    
    
16. To make the toxin, start by getting a Barrel of mashed apples. Go over to the rotten apple place marked on the map below, pick up 2 barrels (one for the apples and one for getting tar later in this step), then use one on the pile of rotten apples to fill it up. Next use the Barrel of rotten apples on the Apple Barrel next to you to mash them.
    Next, get a Barrel of tar (the tar place at the bottom of Tirannwn)
    Distill the Tar into "Naptha" (Rimmington chemist, be sure to bring enough coal).
    
    
    
    To distill the tar:
    First, Use the tar-filled barrel with the distiller. Then click the right side of the valve to the right twice, so the tar should be flowing at maximum. You should see the 'pressure' indicator on the left go up. When the indicator reaches the green region, click the right side of the valve on the left to let out pressure. This should stall the indicator on the left. Now you can start adding coal. This will raise the indicator on the right. If it's below the green region, add more coal. If it's above, don't add add coal until it gets lower. The bar on the bottom will start turning green, when it's full you can stop adding coal and close the window on the top right. At this point, your barrel should be automatically filled with Naphtha.
    
    
17. Next, use both barrels with each other to get "Naphtha Apple Mix", then use the sieve with it to obtain "Toxic Naphtha". Finally, heat the Toxic Naphtha on the RANGE in the nearby houses in Rimmington to obtain two amounts of "Toxic powder". Note: If you use the Toxic Naphtha on a fire, it will explode, possibly hitting more than 50 damage on you!
    
    
18. Take both amounts of toxic powder and use one on the grain bags by the general store and the other on the grain bags in the store room (location in image below) in the distribution plant in the center of West Ardougne.
    
    
    
    
19. Finally, talk to the Head Mourner to complete the quest.
