Step 1. High Priest Hollint in Oren
Teleport to the Town of Oren: High Priest Hollint stands in the temple, about 700 east-northeast of the teleport. Only Humans with the 1st class at level 37+ can take the quest. Click "Say you will take the Trial of Trust" — you get the
Letter to Elf and the
Letter to Darkelf and, on the first take, 96
Dimensional Diamond.

Step 2. Hierarch Asterios
Teleport to the Elven Village: Hierarch Asterios stands in the temple, about 2,400 west-southwest of the teleport. Click "Give him the letter from Hollint", then "\"How can I help to restore the forest?\"" — you get the
Order of Asterios: you have to kill the leaders of the forest spirits.

Step 3. Actea of Verdant Wilds
From the Elven Village teleport to the Elven Forest: Dryads lv. 13 (level 13) and Dryad Elders lv. 14 (level 14) roam west-northwest of the teleport, 5,000 to 15,000 away. After each kill there is a 33% chance that the quest monster Actea of Verdant Wilds lv. 37, level 37, appears nearby — kill it to get the
Seed of Verdure.

Step 4. Luell of Zephyr Winds
From the Elven Village teleport to the Neutral Zone and run across the bridge to the northeast: Lireins lv. 18 (level 18) and Lirein Elders lv. 19 (level 19) live there. After a kill there is a 33% chance the quest monster Luell of Zephyr Winds lv. 37, level 37, appears — she drops the
Breath of Winds.

Step 5. Scroll of Elf Trust
Return to Asterios with the seed and the breath of winds — he gives you the
Scroll of Elf Trust and sends you to the Dark Elves.

Step 6. Tetrarch Thifiell
Teleport to the Dark Elven Village: Tetrarch Thifiell stands in the temple, about 1,800 northeast of the teleport. Click "Give the letter of Hollint." — you get the
Letter from Thifiell for Magister Clayton.

Step 7. Magister Clayton in Dion
Teleport to the Town of Dion: Magister Clayton stands in the Dark Elven Guild, about 2,400 southwest of the teleport. He gives you the
Order of Clayton — a list of three materials. The materials drop only while you carry this order.

Step 8. Three materials for Clayton
From Giran teleport to Dragon Valley: Guardian Basilisks lv. 36 (level 36) roam the Death Pass gorge around the arrival point. You need 10
Blood of Guardian Basilisk — the blood drops from every kill (× quest rate) and turns into the
Basilisk Plasma by itself.

From Gludio teleport to the Ant Nest and go inside: Ant Recruit lv. 33, Ant Patrol lv. 34, Ant Guard lv. 35, Ant Soldier lv. 35 and Ant Warrior Captain lv. 36 all count. 10
Giant Aphids turn into the
Honey Dew by themselves.

From Dion teleport to the Cruma Tower; don't go inside. Any stakato counts — Marsh Stakato lv. 29, Worker lv. 31, Soldier lv. 33 or Drone lv. 35; the nearest soldiers are about 3,200 north of the teleport. 10
Stakatos Fluids turn into the
Stakato Ichor.

Step 9. Clayton again
With the three materials return to Clayton in Dion — he takes the order back and sends you to Thifiell.

Step 10. Scroll of Dark Elf Trust
Bring the plasma, honey dew and ichor to Thifiell in the Dark Elven Village temple — he gives you the
Scroll of Dark Elf Trust.

Step 11. Hollint and the letter to Seresin
Return to Hollint in the Oren temple with both scrolls — he takes them and gives you the
Letter to Seresin.

Step 12. Cardinal Seresin
Cardinal Seresin stands at the exit of the Oren temple, about 600 south-southeast of the teleport. Click "\"I will leave right now.\"" — from level 38 Seresin gives you the
Letter to Orc and the
Letter to Dwarf. Go to the Orcs first: the Dwarves answer only after the Orcs.

Step 13. Flame Lord Kakai
Teleport to the Orc Village: Flame Lord Kakai sits on the second floor of the main hall, about 2,200 west-northwest of the teleport. Click "Show Seresin's Letter" — you get the
Letter to Manakia.

Step 14. Seer Manakia in Giran
Teleport to the Town of Giran: Seer Manakia stands in the Orc Guild, about 4,500 northwest of the teleport. Click "\"How can I help?\"" — you need parasites from the wild boars called Windsus.

Step 15. Windsus
From Giran teleport to Hardin's Private Academy: the Windsus lv. 39 (level 39) roam northwest of the academy, the nearest about 7,400 away. The
Parasite of Lota drops with a 50% chance × quest rate; you need 10.

Step 16. Letter of Manakia
With 10 parasites return to Manakia in Giran — he takes them and gives you the
Letter of Manakia for Kakai.

Step 17. Scroll of Orc Trust
Bring the letter to Kakai in the Orc Village — he gives you the
Scroll of Orc Trust and sends you to the Dwarves.

Step 18. Lockirin in the House of Elders
Teleport to the Dwarven Village: Iron Gate's Lockirin stands in the House of Elders, about 1,200 east-northeast of the teleport. Click "Show Seresin's letter" — you get the
Letter to Nikola.

Step 19. Maestro Nikola by the Cruma Tower
From Dion teleport to the Cruma Tower: Maestro Nikola stands outside, about 7,600 west-southwest of the teleport. Click "Ask about the Core" — you get the
Order of Nikola.

Step 20. Porta in the Cruma Tower
Enter the Cruma Tower: Porta lv. 40 (level 40) live on the first floor. The
Heartstone of Porta drops from every kill (× quest rate); you need 10.

Step 21. Nikola again
Bring 10 heartstones to Nikola — he takes them together with the order and sends you back to Lockirin.

Step 22. Scroll of Dwarf Trust
Return to Lockirin in the Dwarven Village — he gives you the
Scroll of Dwarf Trust.

Step 23. Hollint's recommendation
With the Orc and Dwarf scrolls return to Hollint in the Oren temple — he gives you the
Recommendation of Hollint for High Priest Biotin.

Step 24. Mark of Trust
Teleport to Talking Island Village: High Priest Biotin stands in the temple, about 900 south-southwest of the teleport. For the recommendation he gives you the
Mark of Trust, 39,571 XP and 2,500 SP. The other Prophet marks are Trial of the Pilgrim and Test of the Reformer; the whole path is in the Prophet 2nd class quest guide, the mark is also needed for the Gladiator 2nd class and the Bishop 2nd class and the Sorcerer 2nd class, other classes — see the 2nd class quests.

How many mobs to kill at your rate
The basilisk blood, aphids, stakato fluids and Porta heartstones drop with a 100% chance — the quest rate multiplies the amount per kill. The Windsus parasites drop with a 50% chance, and the rate multiplies the chance. Actea and Luell appear with a 33% chance at any rate — after about 3 kills on average. On some servers quest items drop one at a time at any rate — then use the x1 column.
| What to collect | How many | x1 | x3 | x5 | x10 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Blood of Guardian Basilisk, Giant Aphid, Stakatos Fluids (100%) | 10 each | 10 | 4 | 2 | 1 |
| Heartstone of Porta (100%) | 10 | 10 | 4 | 2 | 1 |
| Parasite of Lota (Windsus, 50%) | 10 | ~20 | ~7 | 4 | 2 |
Drop: Windsus · chance 50% · needed 10 pcs
| Quest drop rate | Kills on average | Safe margin (90%) |
|---|---|---|
| x1 | 20 | 26 |
| x3 | 7 | 7 |
| x5 | 4 | 4 |
| x7 | 3 | 3 |
| x10 | 2 | 2 |
| x50 | 1 | 1 |
| x100 | 1 | 1 |
