First conversation with Barkley:
20:13 Player: hi
20:13 Barkley the Beggar: Hello stranger, do you want to support old beggar? I'm freezing here! 100 gold coins will be enough.
20:13 Player: yes
20:13 Barkley the Beggar: A generous nobleman! Thank you, something brings you to this desolated cold land, but what I wonder? Why exactly the slums of Thoris?...
20:14 Barkley the Beggar: Don't tell me you are looking for the greatest treasure?
20:14 Player: yes
20:14 Barkley the Beggar: Ahh! So now I sparked your curiosity, good! Can you spend me 100 more gold pieces? I will tell you about some chest.
20:14 Player: yes
20:14 Barkley the Beggar: Everyone heard about that chest! It's hidden deep below the Baron's castle. But what could be inside? How to open it? Well, perhaps this key would help. One plat and it's all yours!
20:14 Player: chest
20:14 Barkley the Beggar: So? Do you want that key?
20:14 Player: yes
20:14 Barkley the Beggar: Here you are! But beware, the catacombs are home to many violent undead creatures. Only Grims go there now.
Returning to Barkley with the grimoire:
20:18 Player: hi
20:18 Barkley the Beggar: A stranger returns once again. But something changed about you, you seem... stronger? What did you found in the chest?
20:18 Player: grimoire
20:18 Barkley the Beggar: An ancient grim book? Let me take a look...
20:18 Barkley the Beggar: Yes... yes! That's it! This is your lucky day, Fred Rolfman. If I were you I would take it to the Grim headquarters. They will pay a lot for this book!

Telling Jakob about the grimoire:
20:18 Fred Rolfman: hi
20:19 Jakob: Yes, I listen.
20:19 Fred Rolfman: grimoire
20:19 Jakob: What!? A stranger found such an ancient artifact? But how did you... BARKLEY?! That fool again! We threw him out years ago and he still causes problems... eh...
20:19 Jakob: But this time... maybe he did something good actually. This book is sacred for our guild, and for it I shall reward you. I don't know who you are but with this you have proven yourself quite capable...
20:19 Jakob: Perhaps we could make a Grim out of you, eh? Would you want that?
20:19 Fred Rolfman: yes
20:19 Jakob: Very well! Here is your grimoire. It is a proof that you understand basics of summoning magic. Well, even if you don't know anything about it, I'm positive that you are capable to understand it rather quickly...
20:19 Jakob: There is something I need to ask of you before I will begin teaching you. Our magician doesn't reply to our astral messages, he has been absent for days now...
20:20 Jakob: His outpost is on northern side of Mittenhoff mountain, in old magical tower. Find him and bring him to me.

20:30 Jakob: The volcano active again? Fire devils... hmm. I will need to study it. For now that's all I need of you, return to me soon. Or wait!...

Receiving the mission to find the stones:
17:03 Player: hi
17:03 Ebbe: Greetings. I have heard of your heroic acts but we have a far greater problem. It seems the volcano woke up because of chaotic fluctuations of mana around the Snowy Hills...
17:03 Ebbe: The rivers of energy seem to encircle that place and focus directly on mountain south of Thoris, but why? This definitely is our priority now. I found something in the book, but for now it has to wait...
17:03 Ebbe: I have a feeling that something has happened to the six magic stones of Thoris. Go there and check.
Returning after finding one of the stones:
20:05 Player: hi
20:05 Ebbe: Hmm?
20:05 Player: mission
20:05 Ebbe: The magic stones are cracked?! And these crystal beetles... The crystal on their back must be made from the fragments of magic stone. The energy of it flows within them...
20:05 Ebbe: They must be destroyed to stabilize the energy. Defeat 400 of them. While you will be busy fighting, I shall find out how to repair them.
Returning after killing the 400 crystal beetles:
21:17 Player: hi
21:17 Ebbe: Hmm?
21:17 Player: mission
21:17 Ebbe: Great! Take these scrolls. I charged them with our magic, use them on the each of the 6 magic stones and return to me.

Mission 5 - Fixing the Magic Stones

- The magic stone becomes cracked again after less than a minute, but you cannot fix the same stone more than once.
- Return to Ebbe after having fixed all six stones on the bottom floors of the Thoris Crystal Caves.
- After fixing the magic stones, Ebbe will promote you to a grim mage and reward you with the Grim Outfit.

21:58 Player: hi
21:58 Ebbe: Hmm?
21:58 Player: mission
21:58 Ebbe: I can sense that you restored proper direction of the mana flow, Papa eh Samba. The energy became calmer now...
21:58 Ebbe: You have finished quite a task, student. No, mage. Through your actions you have showed me your potential...
21:58 Ebbe: I hereby promote you to a grim mage. You may now wear the robes similar to mine...
21:58 Ebbe: I mentioned before that I found something in the book. It was about dark entity Thor'garak. The first of the Grims...
21:58 Ebbe: He was a young magician that signed a pact with the calamitious powers of Ether, causing him to lose his soul in exchange for summoning powers...
21:58 Ebbe: He was sealed two hundred years ago by brave magicians during the Black Hour. His body was left broken and decaying, but unable to die. He rests deep below Thoris mountain...
21:59 Ebbe: The passage was sealed, yet those fools must have opened it again. I wonder by whom. They shall find only death there. The entity must be sealed again...
21:59 Ebbe: But the only way to do it is through the magicians that trapped him. Most of them became insane through the curse they obtained in process. They became vampires...
21:59 Ebbe: Only the Baron knows where they are. Tell him "Sava'ar Tharis" which for Grims means, the blood is flowing backwards. He will know who sent you.

Mission 6 - The Volcano

- Use the keyword Sava'ar Tharis with the baron, and after that say mission. He will direct you to the mage Hramat, who is hiding somewhere in the southern part of Mittenhoff and is using a different name.
- Hramat's hideout is on a mountain south-west of Arak (here ).
- The fastest way to get there is to follow the path south from Arak gate as shown below and levitate up the mountain a few times:

22:13 Player: Sava'ar Tharis
22:13 Baron Johann Ardlich: The Grim tongue. What brings you here?
22:13 Player: mission
22:13 Baron Johann Ardlich: I cannot believe it. The horror returns? We need to do something about this!...
22:13 Baron Johann Ardlich: If he is about to escape his prison, he will bring doom to whole continent. We need to act quickly...
22:14 Baron Johann Ardlich: As Ebbe mentioned, you probably are aware of the pact. Yes, I can see it in your eyes. All of those great wizards lost in the rivers of madness except one. Hramat...
22:14 Baron Johann Ardlich: He is hiding somewhere. But where to find him? Clearly he isn't using this name anymore. His hideout somewhere in the southern part of Mittenhoff mountain, start from that place.
Trying to talk to Brigmazath:
22:56 Player: hi
22:56 Brigmazath: Gra'thar takum faort or' tarum.

Talking to the Baron:
23:10 Player: hi
23:10 Ebbe: Hmm?
23:10 Player: mission
23:10 Ebbe: You found what?! A demon? It can't be.. he would never... he would never sell us out to those cowardly demons! I won't believe it...
23:10 Ebbe: But from what you say he wasn't as hostile as he should be, perhaps that's just an illusion, perhaps it's just... a summon?
23:11 Ebbe: You mentioned about him speaking to you in demonic tongue...
23:11 Ebbe: You clearly aren't an adept in our magic but if it's a binded creature the only way to speak with it is to use "Aht'cra'otris", the magical sentence to free his tongue.
Talking to Brigmazath:
23:23 Player: hi
23:23 Brigmazath: Gra'thar takum faort or' tarum.
23:23 Player: Aht'cra'otris

Talking to Hramat:
12:13 Player: hi
12:13 Hramat: Greetings.
12:13 Player: mission
12:13 Hramat: You have found the fiery gate but couldn't pass through it? A spell doesn't allow unwanted intruders to enter their main hideout. Interesting...
12:14 Hramat: I have heard a rumor that the Dark Grims have been spotted on Forgula. It makes sense now, they must be training new adepts at this hideout to allow them to pass through the gate...
12:14 Hramat: There must be someone who posseses knowledge on how to pass through the gate, find out how to and execute that person...
12:14 Hramat: Also, get rid of some Grim Adepts, they will be troublesome if we will let them live. Kill about 400 of them.
Turning in Master Zegrath kill task:
12:13 Player: hi
12:13 Hramat: Greetings.
12:13 Player: mission
12:13 Hramat: Have you killed the teacher of the Grim Adepts?
12:13 Player: yes
12:14 Hramat: Great, but it's possible that few adepts already know how to pass through the portal and might share their knowledge with other adepts...
12:14 Hramat: Return to me when you will slay 400 of them.
Turning in the 400 Grim Adepts task:
12:13 Player: hi
12:13 Hramat: Greetings.
12:13 Player: mission
12:13 Hramat: Have you finished your task? Have you killed 400 of Grim Adepts?
12:13 Player: yes
12:14 Hramat: Now we don't have to worry about adepts anymore.
Turning in the Notes of Master Zegrath:
12:13 Player: hi
12:13 Hramat: Greetings.
12:13 Player: mission
12:13 Hramat: Adepts are gone and so is their teacher...
12:13 Hramat: Have you found out any clue how to pass the portal?
12:13 Player: yes
12:14 Hramat: A note covered in blood. At least I can still decipher what is written here...
12:14 Hramat: Ancient Sheol magic, interesting. The watchers created this spell when they tried to escape out world...
12:14 Hramat: It allows user to freely travel through dimensions without soul being torn apart. The spell itself is very old, and requires a lot of energy...
12:14 Hramat: In order for me to cast the spell alone I will need black crystals, catalysts that amplifies magic of the holder...
12:14 Hramat: I have heard that some wizards, those who use arcane magic are using them to boost their magic capabilities...
12:14 Hramat: Come back here with 5 of them. I'll be here.

Mission 9 - The Hellish Gate
- As your final mission, Hramat will ask you to defeat the demon lord Thor'garak.
- You will need to travel to the Dark Grim Realm and then to the quest door in the north area on +1. Enter the portal and travel to the building in the middle which has 2 Ashlords in it so take care.
- A blocker of at least level 250 is required for this mission to be safe, and several shooters, although the larger the team the better. He has quite a bit of health so just SD him down. Make sure you heal the 8 healing crystals around the room as they take damage since Thor'garak regains a large amount of health if he manages to destroy one.
- The mission can be done by 5-6 people if they're experienced enough, but people will usually join for free if you advertise it as everyone can claim a random reward from the chest at Hramat's hideout after participating in the boss fight.
- Collect your reward and turn in your mission, as a reward you will receive 1,000,000 Experience Points and a Ring of Purity.
