Quest points1
StartTalk to the golem in the ruined city of Uzer, in the desert east of the Shantay Pass.
Requirements
  • Level 20 Crafting (can be boosted)
  • Level 25 Thieving (can be boosted)
Items Needed
  • 4 soft clay, a vial, a pestle and mortar, a hammer and a chisel.
  • A papyrus (Ali's Discount Wares in Pollnivneach sells some).
  • Water for the desert, and 6 free inventory slots.
Walkthrough
  1. Use soft clay on the golem until it is repaired. It wants you to open a portal so it can defeat the demon that attacked its city.
  2. Find the letter in Uzer: it mentions the Digsite. Search the bookcase in the Exam Centre at the Digsite for Varmen's notes: golems are programmed with instructions on papyrus, written with a phoenix quill.
  3. In Varrock Museum, pickpocket the curator for a tiny key, open the display case upstairs and take the statuette.
  4. In Uzer, put the statuette in the empty alcove, then turn the four statuettes until the door grinds open (each one turns left or right).
  5. Enter the portal: the demon is already dead. Pick up the strange implement lying in its lair, and pry the six gems from its throne with hammer and chisel. Tell the golem: it does not believe you.
  6. Grab a tail feather from the desert phoenix. Pick a black mushroom in the ruins of Uzer, crush it with the pestle and mortar into a vial to make ink, and dip the feather in it.
  7. Write on the papyrus with the quill ("YOUR TASK IS DONE"). Use the strange implement on the golem to open its skull, then put the program inside.
