Step 1. Hermit Santiago at the Orc Barracks

From Gludin Village teleport to the Orc Barracks: Hermit Santiago stands by the hut on the ranch, about 700 north-northeast of the teleport. Only a Cleric, Elven Oracle, Shillien Oracle or Orc Shaman of level 35+ can take the quest. Click "Say you will take the Trial of the Pilgrim", then "\"I shall learn from the beginning.\"" and "Continue listening to the explanation" three times — you get the Voucher of Trial and, on the first take, 49 Dimensional Diamond.

Step 2. Seer Tanapi in the Orc Village

Teleport to the Orc Village: Seer Tanapi stands in the main building, about 1,000 west of the teleport. He takes the voucher and sends you to the ancestor spirit in the Cave of Trials.

Step 3. Ancestor Martankus in the Cave of Trials

From the Orc Village teleport to the entrance of the Cave of Trials. Inside, jump off the bridge to the right and run downstream: Ancestor Martankus is in the far hall, about 13,000 east-southeast of the teleport. He asks for the Essence of Flame.

Step 4. Lava Salamander in the Forgotten Temple

From Gludin teleport to the Forgotten Temple. Inside, turn right at the first fork (the fire side) and keep going: the quest Lava Salamanders lv. 35, level 35, live in a small room on the left before the main halls, about 12,000 northwest of the teleport. The Essence of Flame drops with a 20% chance × quest rate.

Step 5. The flame of Pa'agrio

Return to Martankus and click "Swallow the Essence of Flame" — the ancestor takes the essence and gives you the Spirit of Flame.

Step 6. Tanapi again

Return to Tanapi in the Orc Village: he is surprised you passed the trial of fire and sends you to the Dwarves — to Gauri Twinklerock.

Step 7. Gauri Twinklerock in the Dwarven Village

Teleport to the Dwarven Village: Gauri Twinklerock stands by the forge, about 4,700 north of the teleport. She gives you the Tag of Rumor and advises you to talk to the wanderer Dorf.

Step 8. Wanderer Dorf

Wanderer Dorf stands nearby, about 5,900 north of the teleport. Give him the tag — he tells you his own truth about the goddess Maphr and gives you the Gray Badge.

Step 9. Priest Primos in Giran

Teleport to the Town of Giran: Priest Primos stands in the temple, about 3,200 east-southeast of the teleport. He admits he cannot teach the truth of Einhasad and sends you to Petron on Talking Island.

Step 10. Priest Petron

Teleport to Talking Island Village: Priest Petron stands in the temple, about 1,000 west-southwest of the teleport. He gives you the Picture of Nahir and asks you to put the evil spirit Nahir to rest.

Step 11. Nahir in the Elven Ruins

From the island teleport to the Elven Ruins and go down into the dungeon. Nahir lv. 35 is a level 35 quest mob at the far end of the ruins, past the spider room, about 4,300 north of the teleport. The Hair of Nahir drops with a 20% chance × quest rate — at x1 you may have to kill Nahir 5–10 times.

Step 12. Statue of Einhasad

Bring the hair to Petron in the Talking Island Village temple — he takes the hair and the picture and gives you the Statue of Einhasad.

Step 13. Andellia in the Elven Village

Teleport to the Elven Village: Andellia stands on the square by the Mother Tree, about 1,100 north-northwest of the teleport. She continues the quest only from level 36 — at 35 she asks you to come back later. Andellia asks you to drive away the Black Willows and warn their mistress Uruha.

Step 14. Black Willow by the waterfall

The Black Willows lv. 30 are level 30 quest mobs by the waterfall in the northern part of the Neutral Zone. The fastest way is the Neutral Zone teleport from the Dark Elven Village and about 16,000 to the northeast. You can also go through Swampland: from the Swampland teleport run about 20,000 east-southeast. The Debris of Willow drops with a 20% chance × quest rate.

Step 15. Uruha

Uruha stands right there by the waterfall. Click "\"I only came here at the request of Andellia.\"" — she takes the debris and gives you the Book of Darkness.

Step 16. The book of darkness

Return to Andellia and click "Burn the Book of Darkness" — she thanks you and sends you to the sage Casian in the Wasteland.

Step 17. Elder Casian in the Wasteland

From Gludin teleport to the Wasteland: Elder Casian stands in the wasteland, about 1,200 southwest of the arrival point. He takes the Gray Badge, the Spirit of Flame, the Statue of Einhasad and the book of darkness and gives you the Book of Sage.

Step 18. Mark of Pilgrim

Return to Santiago at the Orc Barracks — he takes the Book of Sage and gives you the Mark of Pilgrim, 77,382 XP and 16,000 SP. The other Prophet marks are Testimony of Trust and Test of the Reformer; the whole path is in the Prophet 2nd class quest guide, the mark is also needed for the Shillien Elder 2nd class and the Warcryer 2nd class and the Elven Elder 2nd class and the Bishop 2nd class, other classes — see the 2nd class quests.

How many mobs to kill at your rate

The Essence of Flame, Hair of Nahir and Debris of Willow are needed once each and drop with a 20% chance; the quest rate multiplies the chance — the table shows the average number of kills. On some servers quest drops do not depend on the rate — then use the x1 column.
