Step 1. Bard Rukal in Dion

Teleport to Town of Dion: Bard Rukal stands in the temple, about 1,200 east-northeast of the teleport. Only Human Wizards, Elven Wizards and Dark Wizards from level 39 can take the quest. Click "Take the Test of the Magus" to get Rukal's Letter, and on the first take — 122 Dimensional Diamond.

Step 2. Parina in Gludin

Teleport to Gludin Village: Parina stands in the village temple, about 1,000 from the teleport. Click "Ask about the singing flower" — she tells you about the singing flowers and gives you Parina's Letter for Elder Casian.

Step 3. Elder Casian in the Wasteland

From Gludin Village teleport to the Wasteland: Elder Casian stands in the wasteland, about 1,200 southwest of the arrival point. Click "Where are the singing flowers?" to get the Lilac Charm. The golden seeds drop only while you carry this charm.

Step 4. Singing Flower Phantasm at Fellmere Lake

From Gludin Village teleport to the Fellmere Harvesting Ground and run southeast about 16,500 to the Singing Flower Phantasm lv. 44, level 44. The flower grows on a small island in Fellmere Lake. The first kill drops the 1st Golden Seed.

Step 5. Singing Flower Nightmare at the waterfall

From Town of Oren teleport to the Ivory Tower and run west-northwest about 16,500 to the Singing Flower Nightmare lv. 44, level 44. The flower grows by a waterfall. The first kill drops the 2nd Golden Seed.

Step 6. Singing Flower Darkling south of Giran

From Town of Dion teleport to the Tanor Canyon and run east about 17,000 to the Singing Flower Darkling lv. 44, level 44. This is the southern part of the Giran lands. The first kill drops the 3rd Golden Seed; the three flowers can go in any order.

Step 7. Score of Elements

With the three seeds teleport to Dion and see Rukal — you don't need to go back to Casian. Click "Say you will help", then "Ask about 4 notes" — Rukal takes the seeds and the charm and gives you the Score of Elements: you need the tones of the four elements.

Step 8. Water Undine at Fellmere Lake

From Gludin Village teleport to the Fellmere Harvesting Ground and run southeast about 14,000 to the Water Undine on the lake shore. Just talk to her to get the Undine Charm: for the tone of water she asks for 20 Dazzling Drops from the Cruma marshes.

Step 9. Flame Salamander in the Ruins of Despair

From Town of Gludio teleport to the Ruins of Despair and run south about 7,000 to the Flame Salamander in the middle of the ruins. Just talk to the spirit to get the Salamander Charm: the tone of fire costs 5 Flame Crystals from the Ghost Fires by the Ivory Tower.

Step 10. Wind Sylph

From Town of Gludio teleport to Windawood Manor and run west about 17,800 to the Wind Sylph. Click "I will make a deal with you." to get the Sylph Charm: the tone of wind costs 20 Harpy's Feathers, 10 Wyrm's Wingbones and 10 Windsus Manes.

Step 11. Earth Snake

From Town of Gludio teleport to the Ruins of Agony and run northwest about 14,600 to the Earth Snake. Click "I will use it to bring the thousand year flower into bloom.", then "Which monsters must I investigate?" to get the Serpent Charm: you need 10 trophies from each of three kinds of enchanted monsters by the Ivory Tower.

Step 12. Dazzling Drops in the Cruma marshes

From Dion teleport to the Cruma Tower; don't go inside. Dazzling Drops come from Marsh Stakato Drones lv. 35 (50%), Marsh Stakato Soldiers lv. 33 (40%), Marsh Stakatos lv. 29, Marsh Stakato Workers lv. 31 and Toad Lords lv. 32 (30%) — all of them roam the marshes around the tower, the nearest 2,000–3,500 from the arrival point. You need 20 Dazzling Drop, chance × quest rate.

Step 13. Three trophies for the Earth Snake

From Town of Oren teleport to the Ivory Tower: the enchanted monsters live in the crater by the tower, 3,000–6,500 from the arrival point. Every kill drops a trophy (× quest rate); you need 10 each.

The Enchanted Monstereye lv. 41, level 41 — Enchanted Monster Eye Shell.

The Enchanted Stone Golem lv. 42, level 42 — Enchanted Stone Golem Powder.

The Enchanted Iron Golem lv. 43, level 43 — Enchanted Iron Golem Scrap. These monsters are strong — better go in a party.

Step 14. Ghost Fires and Flame Crystals

Right there in the Ivory Tower crater float the quest Ghost Fires lv. 42, level 42, 3,000–5,500 from the arrival point. You need 5 Flame Crystal — they drop with a 50% chance × quest rate.

Step 15. Materials for the Wind Sylph

Every harpy drops a feather, the wingbones and manes drop with a 50% chance; the quest rate multiplies both.

From Giran teleport to Breka's Stronghold and run east-southeast to the Harpies lv. 32, level 32, 15,000–24,000 from the teleport. They fly in the gorgon garden by the Necropolis of Martyrdom. You need 20 Harpy's Feather.

From Giran teleport to Dragon Valley: Wyrms lv. 35, level 35, live in the Death Pass gorge, the nearest about 3,400 from the arrival point. You need 10 Wyrm's Wingbone.

In the same Death Pass roam Windsus lv. 39, level 39, the nearest about 9,000 from the arrival point; the Hardin's Private Academy teleport works too — about 7,400. You need 10 Windsus Mane.

Step 16. Tone of Water

Return to the Water Undine at Fellmere Lake with 20 drops — she gives you the Tone of Water.

Step 17. Tone of Fire

Take the 5 crystals to the Flame Salamander in the Ruins of Despair to get the Tone of Fire.

Step 18. Tone of Wind

Take the feathers, wingbones and manes to the Wind Sylph to get the Tone of Wind.

Step 19. Tone of Earth

Take the 30 trophies to the Earth Snake near the Ruins of Agony to get the Tone of Earth. The four spirits can go in any order: all of them are close to Gludio.

Step 20. Mark of Magus

With the four tones return to Rukal in the Dion temple — he gives you the Mark of Magus, 139,039 XP and 40,000 SP. The other Sorcerer marks are Trial of the Scholar and Testimony of Trust, the Spellhowler's are Trial of the Scholar and Testimony of Fate, the Spellsinger's are Trial of the Scholar and Testimony of Life; the full path is in the Sorcerer 2nd class quest, Spellhowler 2nd class quest and Spellsinger 2nd class quest guides.

How many mobs to kill at your rate

The Earth Snake trophies and the harpy feathers drop with a 100% chance — the quest rate multiplies the amount per kill. The drops, crystals, wingbones and manes drop with a 30–50% chance, and the rate multiplies the chance; the table shows the average number of kills. On some servers quest items drop one at a time at any rate — then use the x1 column.

Each Singing Flower drops its Golden Seed on the first kill at any rate.
