1st Chapter

To start this quest, you must first speak to King Narnode Shareen, who can be found in the Tree Gnome Stronghold. He will hand you the Gnome Royal Seal and ask you to investigate Glough’s old shipyard for any trace related to the disappearance of the 10th squad. So, head to Karamja using the Glider located at the top of The Grand Tree, and enter the shipyard, just north of the landing site. You’ll find G.L.O Caranock in the southern area, speak to him and he’ll suspiciously advise you to go back to the king. The king will hand an item called ‘Narnode’s orders’, and he’ll ask you to speak to Daero, who can be found on the 2nd floor of The Grand Tree, next to the Blueberry Bar. Surfing through the chat options, tell him that you’re prepared to leave and he’ll take you to an underground area. Upon reaching, talk to Daero again and he’ll introduce you to Waydar. You will now be tasked with solving a puzzle, and you can do this using the panel southeast of the southern glider.

Use the following method to solve the puzzle:

1. First operate the 1st, 2nd and 3rd pieces in the upper left corner.

2. Now, position the 4th piece in the upper right corner.

3. Move the 5th piece under the 4th piece.

4. Slide the 4th piece left and the 5th piece up to complete the first row.

5. Repeat the same for the second row, without touching the row above.

6. The pieces of the last two rows need to be solved together.

If you’ve done Treasure Trails before, then you’ll notice that this puzzle is similar to it, making the puzzle easier for experienced players. In any case, if you don’t want to waste time, then you can pay Glough (Resides in the same area as he was during The Grand Tree quest) and complete it. Once completed, first talk to Daero, then to Waydar and they’ll both escort you to Crash Island where the King’s 10th squad had landed. From there, when you ask Lumdo to take to you Ape Toll, he’ll refuse. So, speak to Waydar again and then speak to Lumdo so that he agrees to take you there.

Part 1

Once you reach, head west while sticking to the southern coastline, until you see a Mahogany tree, and then from there change your direction towards the north.

While travelling north, turn your ‘Protect from Missiles’ on as you’ll constantly be hit with poisonous arrows until you reach the gate. In the end, you’ll end up being knocked up and you’ll wake up in a prison.

This prison cell is guarded by Trefaji and Aberab. In the prison, you’ll find a member of the 10th squad named Lumo, speak to him.

Travel south from there, hiding in the jungle grass to be protected against the archers, until you get past the door. Now, go around the castle counter-clockwise east, until you’re in between the castle and the building south of it. Just each of the building, you’ll find Garkor, who is the sergeant of the 10th squad.

When you enter, stay on the dark brown ground or you’ll end up in jail again if you’re caught. In the south-western crates near the ladder, you’ll find bananas. So, stay on the drank brown side, step east, then north and search the crates in the middle of the room to obtain monkey dentures.

During your travel, you may also be hit by rocks, which can be indicated as your screen shakes and a rumbling noise occurs. You can avoid the rocks by standing under the grey area shown on your mini-map. The claws traps in the dungeon can also be avoided if you stop one square before the trap, and run your way through when it’s safe.

Before leaving the dungeon, you’ll be given an enchanted bar.

From there, head east down the trapdoor in the temple and activate your ‘Protect from Melee’ prayer beforehand to avoid the attacks from the Monkey Guards.

In the trapdoor, you’ll find Monkey Zombies. Ignore them and use the enchanted bar on the Wall of Flames. Now, head back up, use a Ball of Wool with the amulet to create a M’speak Amulet and go to the building located west of the jail. Here you’ll find a banana garden with a Monkey Child in it, who is being patrolled by The Monkey’s Aunt. Wait for the aunt to walk away, then speak to the child, because if you don’t wait and if she catches you, then she’ll call the monkey guards to throw you back in the jail cell.

So, head west till you reach the western shore of the island, go south from there and then climb up the bamboo ladder on top of the hill.
