Thanks go to michelelee for writing this quest guide
"Once upon a time in a land far, far away..." Sylas, a collector of items both wondrous and unusual seeks out the latest additions to his trove with a somewhat unusual prize for the finder.
Terrors and towers await; fierce battles with giant beasts; striding boldy to rescue a dwarf in distress! Not a quest for the meek or faint-hearted, prepare yourself for a feast of fairytale fun with rewards a-plenty! The Brothers Grimm could never have foretold a tale such as this...
Head to Taverly to speak to Sylas near the house portal there. He will want a feather and helm. Head to White Wolf Mountain to the west.
Step is Complete.
( Done)
Walk along the eastern most path of White Wolf Mountain and then go up the ramp then walk a little more to the bird. Talk to the bird and when you mess up it will hit you for up to 20.
Step is Complete.
( Done)
Tell the bird that he is a great griffin. The story for me was along the lines of in graveyard, name skullrot, he is insane, grabbed gnome by the hair, tried to strangle, gnome went for axe. Once asleep you grab a feather and then return to Sylas.
Step is Complete.
( Done)
The next stop is to get the Helm. Go to the tower located in the area north of Falador east of the Goblin Village where the bears are south of the mind alter. Climb over the crumbled wall and talk into the drain pipe.
Step is Complete.
( Done)
Eventually the princess will break in and the dwarf will tell you that you need to speak to him in person. So you talk in the drain pipe again and ask him if there is something up there to help and he will mention his beard.
Step is Complete.
( Done)
Climb up his beard then talk to him to learn about how he got there and then climb back down and over the wall.
Step is Complete.
( Done)
Go to the north of the tower to talk to the princess. She will say she is waiting on someone to come and you tell her it is her 2nd cousin twice removed and then she will go on until she says she would free the dwarf if you recover her pendant.
Step is Complete.
( Done)
Be sure to talk to her to get the key and the witch's house is in Taverly where you had to retrieve the ball in another quest for the kid.
Step is Complete.
( Done)
Go in house then down the ladder to the basement. Be wearing plain leather gloves and go through the gate, you will get the music sheet telling the notes to play on the piano.
Step is Complete.
( Done)
Head to the piano and play it as you see it.. the higher up the note the higher letter you need to play... the notes go from low to high in a left to right of the keys. Here is a pic of the music sheet:
Step is Complete.
( Done)
Once you play it correctly you then will search the piano and recieve a to-do list, recipe for shrink potion and 2 oggleroot things. You now will make those potions by having a water filled vial and tarromin and then add in the root, make 2 of these.
Step is Complete.
( Done)
You will drink one of these standing next to the mouse hole located in the small room of the witch's house where you had to go through to get to the garden in the other quest.
Step is Complete.
( Done)
You'll shrink and appear in the wall with big mice around you they are lv 90 somethings, if you not a low level you probably have nothing to fear. Once in, I went till I saw nails to climb up on the east side of the room then I around the corner and climbed up the nails on the north side. I then walked south and up those nails. Headed north and climbed down the nails then went north up those nails then walked north some and got the pendant. I walked back the way I came and came across experiments lv 109 which I killed one and got a ongleroot and 2 herbs which were tarromin. Anyhow moving on I went up the stairs and came out in front of the witch's house at the manhole.
Step is Complete.
( Done)
Head back to the tower and give the pendant to the princess to free the dwarf. You get the helm and then return to Sylas. He will go on for a bit about a golden goblin and a giant. You get a bean as well.
Step is Complete.
( Done)
Now you need a seed dibber, water can, woodcutting axe, food and armor for the battle. It is a lv 138 that drains prayer and also turns it off sometimes. Plant the seed in the garden area south west of the tree spot in Taverly. A bean stalk will grow. Climb up and get ready to fight, he will pull you towards him and sometimes push you away by his cry. I ate 2 sharks and used 5 pray doses. It was annoying how he turn it off but if you are alert it should be pretty easy enough to do. Remember he can hit hard so have food and a tele if you have doubts. Once you take the gold goblin to Sylas you need a woodcutting axe and another shrink potion which you should have made 2 earlier... use the potion on the stalk to shrink it then chop it down.
Step is Complete.
( Done)
Go back to Sylas and the quest is done : )
