Walkthrough

  1. Make sure you have nothing in your inventory and talk to Malignius Mortifer. Choose to talk about the Rune Mythos quest when prompted and accept the quest. You can choose to exhaust the other chat options, but you only have to select "I'm good. What's next?" to progress. He will then give you everything needed for the Lesser Essence ritual: 200 noted $ilnkfull2629, 8 $ilnkfull32118, 4 $ilnkfull32119, AND 4 Basic ritual candles. Note that he will only do this once and if you have some of the items, he will only give you what you are missing.

  2. Go to the pedestal in the center of the Ritual site, click it and select the Lesser Essence ritual. To complete the Ritual, you will need 2 "Elemental I" glyphs (3 $ilnkfull32118 each) and 2 "Change I" glyphs (2 $ilnkfull32118 and 1 $ilnkfull32119 each) as well as 4 basic candles. Adjust your site as necessary using the provided items. Once the site is prepared, stand on the platform and begin the ritual. This will consume the $ilnkfull2629 you were given.

  4. Time to take a hike. Make your way to the North East corner of the city where the Runecrafting symbol is on the map. To speed things up a bit, you can teleport to the City of Um lodestone. Enter the dark portal there.
