One Small Favour
Starting Point: You can start the quest in Shilo village, talk to the antiques shop owner, Yanni.
Description:If you're fresh to Shilo Village after solving the mystery (or even if you did it some time ago), you may like to check out Yanni Salika's antiques shop. He's a busy chap revamping antique items, checking out new stock from potential adventurers and maybe he'll have a small(1) favour to ask of you? Probably nothing particularly large, Yanni isn't a demanding(2) person, should hardly take you any time(3) at all really, something to do when you have a spare moment. That's assuming there aren't any complications.
1: - Perception of the word "small" may be open to interpretation.
2: - In a recent vote, Yanni Salika was only voted the second most demanding person in Shilo Village.
3: - As everyone knows, time is relative.
Requirements: Must have completed Rune Mysteries Quest, Druidic Ritual Quest, and Shilo Village Quest, Level 25 Crafting, Level 18 Herblore, Level 36 Agility, Level 30 Smithing Must defeat a level 91 Foe.
Difficulty: Medium, but very long, combat should be 40+
Items Needed:5 pigeon cages(you can pick up these during the quest), should bring around 4k, 4 steel bars, 1 iron bar, 1 bronze bar, bowl of water, 1 haralander, 2 Guam leaves. 1 Marrentill, hammer, chisel(maybe an extra jade, opal, or Red topaz(not needed if you have enough money to buy one yourself)), cup of tea(empty get in Varrock steal from the stall and drink it) and 1 pot, teleports to Ardougne and Varrock are useful.
Reward:2 antique lamps that give 10k exp in a skill of your choosing, key ring, ability to fly to Feldip Hills, the ability to make pot lids, and 2 Quest Points.
Here is a map of everything there is in the quest(probably the reason this page might take a long time to load lol):
- Go to Yanni in the antiques shop and ask if there is anything else to do in the village. She will eventually ask you to do one small favour. She will ask you to go and get some mahogany wood from a forester, who is just outside Shilo village.(make sure you have all items at this point)
- Go and talk to the forester, and he/she(depending on which one you talk to) will tell you that she will give you the mahogany, as long as you can take a quick trip to Captain Shanks and ask him to take her axe to port Sarim to get it sharpened.
- Go west to the bridge, but rather than going up it, keep on going west until you find a boat. Go up the ladder and talk to Captain Shanks. He will tell you that it would be a lot quicker if he took you and you went yourself. Ask him for a boat ticket, it might cost around 30 - 40gp and take the boat to port Sarim.
- Go into the ask shop(just west) and talk to Brian. He will tell you that he normally would sharpen your axe, but he needs a witness for his best friend, so he asks you to do One small favour(getting tired yet? There's A LOT more to come!!) and talk to aggie to be a witness.
- Go to Aggie(in Draynor just north of the bank), and she will say she will be a witness for Brian's friend, for...A small favour! One of her friends, named Jimmy the Chisel(kinda weird name lol) has been missing, and she wants you to find him. She says that he is east and might be in an abandoned building.
- Head east down the goblin-made path, until you get to an abandoned building. Pick-lock the door(wait for it to open) and go inside. Head east to the jail cells and find Johanus. He is holding Jimmy captive, but will release him in return for....one small favour! He asks you to go and get a months supply of Chicken from Farmer Fred.
- Fred is just south of the mill. Talk to him and he will tell you to talk to Seth Groats. Go to Seth Groats(in the house beside the chicken pen, just west of the cows) and he will tell you that he needs a way to transport all these chickens. He tells you to talk to Horvik about the chicken cages.
- Go to Horvik(in the center of Varrock, he also runs the armor store). Talk to him, and you will find out that he is ill. He will tell you that he needs medicine from the Apothecary(herbal tincture and breathing salts), and he also says something about pigeon cages.
- Go to Apothecary and he will give you the herbal tincture, but when he tries to give you the breathing salts, he drops the container! He says that he will need another air-tight container to hold the breathing salts. He tells you to talk to Tassie Slipcast.
- Ask Tassie about a air-tight container, and she tells you that she would, but she can't as she needs money, and to get money she is working for a high-paying customer. The reason for her need for money is to pay of a debt to Hammerspike.
- Go to Hammerspike(he is in the dwarven mines, go past the anvils and all the way until you come to him. He will tell you that he will, but only if you talk to Sanfew about him becoming a druid.(a gangster becoming a druid? Sounds odd doesn't it...)
- Go to Sanfew, and he will tell you that he will, as long as you make herbal tea for the Gnome Pilot on the White Wolf Mountain, and ask him to fly Sanfew down to Feldip Hills.
- Now, to make herbal tea. Take your bowl and use it on a range. It will become hot water. Use it with an empty teacup, and then use the herbs on it(2 Guams, 1 Marrentill, and 1 haralander). You will have herbal tea. Now head to White Wolf Mountain.
- Ok, now go to the gnome(located at the very tip of the mountain) and talk to him. He will take your tea(and love it too) and when you ask him to fly Sanfew to Feldip Hills, he will say that he needs lightweight rope, otherwise known as T.R.A.S.H. He will say to talk to Arhein in Catherby(the general store owner).
- Go to Arhein, and talk to him. He will tell you that he knows a lot about T.R.A.S.H. and that he would be glad to give you some in return for a weather report to keep his cargo from sinking on his boat in a storm. He tells you that a Seer called Phantewti can help him with the report.
- Go to Seers' Village, and go to the house a little bit south of the bank. Look for a seer dressed in grey. Ask him about a weather forecast, but he will tell you that he cannot do it for you as his foresight is concentrated on a young girl, called Petra, and she is in a cave near smelly creature or creatures. He says not to go further south of Ardougne, or further west of the training camp in your search.
- Go down to the fishing guild. Just a bit south of it you will find a cave with some goblins outside. Enter the cave and head right until you get to a room with a cutscene in it. Search the sculpture, and find a note.
- Now head into Ardougne, and go all the ways north-east. Talk to the wizard Cromperty. He tells you that he teleported her into the rock, and in order to free her he will need some iron oxide, which you should buy from a merchant in Port Khazard. Now that you are in Ardougne, look the northern-most bank, then head south until you see a house with three items near the back. You will find a few pigeon cages. Take 5.(make sure you have all the items needed for the quest at this time)
- Now, make your way to Port Khazard, and you will find Tindal. Talk to him and he will tell you to get his mattress stuffed in return for iron oxide(or rust lol).
- Go all the way south to Yanille, then keep on heading south into the Chompy bird hunting area. Go talk to Rantz, and he will tell you that in return for stuffing the mattress, he wants you to get the gnomes to stop their racket and finish their business.
- Go all the way east, until you see landing lights and a gnome glider. Talk to Gnormadium, and ask him if you can help. He will ask you to fix the lights. Search every one of them, to find an uncut gem. Cut the gem and put it back into the light. If you miss-hit a gem and you need another one, go talk to Gnormadium, he will sell you a chisel for 50 gp or so, and an extra gem for 500 gp.
- Once you've fixed all the lights, talk to him again and he will tell you that he can leave..FINALLY THE TURNING POINT IN THE QUEST!!!
- Now go and talk to these people in this order:
- Rantz, he will stuff the mattress
- Take the mattress to Tindal, and he will give you Iron oxide.
- Give the Wizard Cromperty the iron oxide and he will give you an animate Rock spell
- Now, go and put all the quest items back in your bank. withdraw what you think is necessary to kill a level 92 Slagilith(it will be hard to hit him), and go back into the cave. Use the Animate Rock spell in the room, and kill the level 92 that appears. Now, go back and use the spell. You will free Petra(and get an uncut ruby, diamond, and adamantine ore). Now, go back to seers' village.
- Now, finally when you think that this long quest is over, the Seer won't give you a Weather report. Ask him everything, then finally ask him why he can't get a clear picture, then ask him what tools he needs. You will find out what he uses to find out the weather...A WEATHER VANE?!?!?!?!? Anyways, go all the way upstairs and use your hammer on the weather vane. Then search it to get all the parts.
- Go downstairs and use all the different parts with the anvil to fix them. Return to the weather vane, and use the parts with it. Go back to the seer and he will give you a really bad weather report(read it) but it works all the same lol
- Now, talk to Arhein, he will Give you T.R.A.S.H.
- Talk to the gnome pilot and he will agree to give Sanfew a ride
- Talk to Sanfew and he will agree to make Hammerspike a druid.
- Talk to Hammerspike, but he doesn't want to be a druid anymore, and he gets his gangsters to attack you. Kill all of them, then talk to him again and he will agree to take Tassie Slipcast of debt
- Talk to Tassie Slipcast and she will teach you how to make a lid. She will give you wet clay, so make the lid(same way you would make anything else).
- Use the lid with a pot, then talk to Apothecary, and he will give you breathing salts
- Talk to Horvik, and he will be cured, then take your pigeon cages and make chicken cages
- Go to Seth and give him the cages, and he will agree to give the HAM the supply of chickens.
- Talk to Johanus and he will set Jimmy free.
- Talk to Aggie and she will agree to be a witness
- Talk to Brian and he will sharpen the forester's axe.
