Steps

Speak with Shanks in Twark at
Return to Brytthel in Nye'Caelona at
Consult the knowledge of sarnaks
1. Speak with Researcher Thelzik Ku'Rok in Fens of Nathsar at at Bathezid's Watch.
2. Receive a book with missing pages depending on your Tradeskill class at the end of the conversation:
Find enough information to create a recipe:
- Collect the missing pages of the book:
  - The even pages are trackable ground spawn scattered around and inside the building. You need the Earring of the Solstice to see them (you dont need to wear it, only to have its buff active, like for every other collection it allows to see).
  - The odd-numbered pages require clicking bookcases throughout the building.
- Complete the Collection and turn it in to a Collector. You will receive the completed book, and a recipe appropriate to your class:
  - Scholars get The Art of Killing Iksar + recipe: Illusion: Mummified Ganak Noble
  - Outfitters get Dag the Blasphemer + 2 recipes: Overseer's Sword & Overseer's Shield
  - Craftsmen get The Legend of Dalnir + recipe: Incense Dispenser
  - The recipes are inventory items and must be scribed.
    
    The Legend of Dalnir-bookcase
    
    The Legend of Dalnir-page
  - Note: If you delete the quest after completing the collection, you won't be able to complete the collection again. You will need to speak with Researcher Thelzik Ku'Rok in Fens of Nathsar at at Bathezid's Watch, once more to receive your class recipe for the next step.
I must work with other artisans to gather the items I'll need to enter Dalnir's crypt.
- Acquire at least one ea. of
- You will be able to make one (or two, if an outfitter) of these items yourself; the others must be obtained from other crafters. All of these items are freely tradable, so can be purchased via the broker if necessary.
  - Passing the items from alts via the shared bank does not seem to work.
  - However, having your alts mail you the items does work.
  - Alternately, you may take the items out of the shared bank from an alt, put it on the broker and take it off the broker without listing it, for the update.
  - Purchasing all 4 items from the broker, and having them in your inventory, will count and bypass this step
- Make sure the quest updates to the "Enter Crypt of Dalnir" step before proceeding and you have at least one each of the listed items in your inventory.
  - Note: While Incense Dispenser says its only 1 charge you can use it an unlimited number of times in the instance. So you need only one Incense Dispenser for all ghosts.
Enter the Crypt of Dalnir: Baron's Workshop (Tradeskill) at in Obulus Frontier near Twark (use the Twark Transport Totem to get there swiftly).

The alcoves in the first long hallway have breakable walls if you climb into them.
Find and speak to Haggle Baron Dalnir. To do so, do all of the following first:
1. Turn the statue on the right
  - Use the Illusion: Mummified Ganak Noble to get past the iksar. Note: doing this before turning the statue might bug the zone. If so, cancel the illusion and start over, however please note that the illusion is a one-time use item, and you will need to acquire another one if you cancel the illusion before completing the zone.
  - Drag the Incense Dispenser to a hotbar. Use the Incense to kill the ghosts. It only works within 12m of mob, but note that the aggro range is about the same. You can cast from about 13m. Get close, cast, take one step forward, cast, and repeat until it works. If they are wandering, you can also drop an incense dispenser in their path. If your level is high enough, you can put down an Incense Dispenser, then aggro and get them to chase you into range.
  - 02/28/2024 if you're 125 you can ignore using the censor as all mobs are greyed out and non aggro
2. When you reach the first hallway, destroy the wall inside the alcoves at (see example image), enter the hidden room, and destroy the obulus vase to receive a crypt key (The spiders are non-aggro, so better to leave them alone). Note that the vase can be in either alcove.
3. Go through the left door and down to The Reservoir of Slime. Fish in the "accumulation of goo" till you find overseer's key. Accumulation of goo are trackable with Track Harvestables.
  - You must get the on-screen update that there are "clumps of unidentifiable detritus floating around in the slime" else you will not get the key (ie, fishing before this is pointless).
  - You have to stand on the very edge to "see" the goo nodes. It is easy to fall in, and if you do you will immediately die.
  - NOTE: at Adv. Level 130 the slime is not immediately fatal, BUT, you can drown. Totem of the Otter was NOT EFFECTIVE, so you might as well stay out of the muck.
    
    accumulation of goo (Note: surface can no longer be seen through)
  - If running reduced graphics, the "accumulation of goo" *WILL* be invisible, look for the Hand icon to find and then Fish for key. Turning up Options.Display.Model Detail.Level of Detail Bias will make them easier to see as well.
Go to the door at

Use caution when fishing from the Accumulation of Goo. Falling in will kill you!
Place the Overseer's Shield on the shield stand and the Overseer's Sword on the sword stand .

a shield stand

a sword stand
Go through the door ( -229, 26, -421 ) and speak with Haggle Baron Dalnir. Be sure you have your illusion on because if you speak to him without it, he will turn into a Level 120 Epicx4 and kill you. If you speak to him a second time (after crafting confirmed), he will kill you.
Craft Rune Conduit
- The Rune Conduit must be crafted at one of the three Dalnir's Forges in Dalnir's room, and requires items from the two side-rooms:
  
  bar of imbued tynnonium on table
  - imbued tynonnium - imbued tynnonium in room on R/west
  - Dalnir's smithing hammer - from Dalnir's work chest at in room on L/east.
    
    Dalnir's work chest
  - dust of ethernere - from small bag on a table in room on R/west.
    
    dust of ethernere
  - blessed water - from "container of water" in room on R/west.
    
    container of water
  - 2 Dalnir's infused coal - from "a bin of infused coal" in room on R/west or
    
    a bin of infused coal
Take the Rune Conduit and return to Brytthel in Nye'Caelona at - she'll send you to Arcanna'se Spire in Thalumbria, so just use the green portal-pedestal on the Nye'Caelona platform to fast-travel there instead of the in-game map-travel.
Enter the Arcanna'se Spire: Into The Spire (Tradeskill) in Thalumbra, the Ever Deep . From this point onward the quest will not update reading "Prepare the Relics" until you have finished step 17 below and completed Time Is Short.
Repair the broken portals.
1. Enter the first room on the left to learn there are three broken portals, find a way to repair them.
2. In the library (second room on the left) is a scroll Spire Portal Construction and Repair. The scroll has a golden particle effect. It could be among the scattered papers anywhere. One possible location is at .
3. Craft 3 spire anchors (blueprint works) with Arcanna'se Workbench at ,
  
  Arcanna'se Workbench
  
  candle wax
  
  broken spire ancho
  
  each requires:
  - Arcanna'se precious metal, harvest from Arcanna'se Ore - found in the garden where the workbench is.
  - 3 Arcanna'se hardwood, harvest from the large green "Hardwood shrub" in the same room.
  - candle wax - from the room in the SE room , from a candle on the table.
4. Repair the 3 broken spire anchors at
Use the portal to travel to the upper level
