As a First Resort

Speak with the chief

 * Speak to Chief Tess in Oo'glog.


 * She tells you that she cannot open her business for customers until the "bossy lady" at the bank in Oo'glog allows her to do so.


 * Offer to help, and the chief asks you to talk with Balnea, the "human lady" in the ogre village's bank.


 * Enter the bank, across the path from the chief's hut, and talk to Balnea.


 * After a long dialogue filled with business-speak, Balnea asks you to help turn Oo'glog into a health spa.


 * Agree, and she sends you first to help the village's chef set up a spit and cooking fire.

Note: After agreeing to help Balnea, you can use the bank.

Establish the catering facilities

 * Speak to the ogre cook, Chargurr, just north of the bank.


 * She tells you she needs a big fire with lots of logs to cook chompy.


 * Tell her you can get what she needs.


 * Go to the bank, withdraw eight Achey logs and ten Eucalyptus logs, and talk to Chargurr.


 * You put the logs in the pit to create an unlit fire.


 * Speak with Chargurr again.


 * She tells you she wants big, long spears to cook chompies on.


 * Back at the bank, take out four spears to be used as spits. To save a bit of time, also withdraw two raw chompies and a tinderbox.


 * Note: If you forgot to get the spears, the level-86 ogresses wielding spears just outside the west entrance to the village drop them. Alternatively, you can smith the spears if you have passed Barbarian training, or go to Tamayu, in Tai Bwo Wannai (south-east house in village), who runs a spear stall selling poisoned spears as well as a cleaning cloth for removing the poison.


 * Talk with Chargurr, and tell her you'd like to give her the four spears.


 * You hang them in the trees, over the logs.


 * Again, speak with the ogre chef.


 * She needs 2 chompy birds.


 * Speak with Chargurr.


 * You stick the chompies on the spears.


 * Talk to her again.


 * She tells you to start the fire.


 * Talk with her again, and use a tinderbox on the unlit fire to light it.
 * Speak to Chargurr one last time to finish this first task.

Advancing the relaxation technologies

 * Speak to Balnea in the bank.


 * She asks you to help Snurgh, the hotel manager in the building in the south-east corner of the village.


 * Withdraw eight stripy feathers from the bank, and go talk with Snurgh.


 * She wants to make some comfortable pillows, and to do this she needs eight stripy feathers from Tropical Wagtails.


 * Talk with Snurgh again, give her the feathers, and then return to Balnea for the next task.

Solidifying Kringk's assets

 * Have another jargon-laced conversation with Balnea.


 * She says your next task is to help Kringk in the hair salon just east of the bank.


 * Take from your bank the four wolf bones and eight larupia furs, and talk with Kringk.


 * She asks how can she do hair with no tools?


 * Tell her you will help.


 * Talk to her again, and give her the four "wolfsie bones" and eight "Lup-Lup furses" to complete this task.


 * Note: You can use tatty larupia fur as well as regular ones.

Pushing the envelope

 * Speak to Balnea a fourth time.


 * She asks you to help Seegud, who is in the hut north-east of the bank.


 * Withdraw from your bank four each of fever grass, lavender, primweed, stinkbloom, and tansymum. Take out a tinderbox. Fill the rest of your inventory with eucalyptus logs.


 * Note: If you haven't collected the plants or cut the logs yet, you can easily find each of them growing in the area between Oo'glog and the Mobilising Armies Command centre. Mind the ogresses and wolves.


 * Talk with Seegud.


 * She tells you she needs to clear flying bugs from the five spa pools by lighting fires in the fire pits next to each pool. For each type of bug, you need to burn eucalyptus logs and a specific plant to keep the swarm away. Seegud has placed stones beside each fire pit to help her remember what to burn:


 * Long, brown rock: Place eucalyptus logs in the fire pit (each fire pit needs eucalyptus logs)
 * Green, lump-shaped rock: Add fever grass
 * Red, round rock: Add primweed
 * Yellow, egg-shaped rock: Add tansymum
 * Orange, squarish rock: Add stinkbloom
 * Tall, purple rock: Add lavender


 * That sounds easy: Go to each of the springs, examine the pile of stones by the fire pit, and burn the logs and the plants that match the stones Seegud put there.


 * Go north-west from Seegud, and examine the pile of stones between the salt-water spring and the fire pit.


 * In your chat window, you see a description of the stones.


 * Place the logs and the plants that match the stones in the fire pit, and light them with a tinderbox.


 * You quickly notice something isn't right: The bugs are still hovering over the pool and a mischievious ogre child is laughing.


 * Return to Seegud, and speak with her.


 * She says the ogre children have mixed up the stones. You now need to discover which plants the mixed-up stones represent.


 * Talk with Snarrl, an ogre child just north-west of Seegud and by the salt-water spring.


 * She recommends you start with the thermal bath.


 * Head north-east of Seegud to the thermal bath.


 * Resort Spa.gif


 * Note: Which stones match which plants is different for each player. Discover their new relationships through a process of elimination. Grab a pencil and paper, and as you learn which stone represents which plant, write the match down so you don't have to figure it out again.


 * Examine the pile of stones next to the thermal bath.


 * Place the logs and one of the plants in the fire pit, and light them.


 * If you get the message, "The fire has a pungent aroma, but it doesn't seem to have any effect on the insects," add more logs and a different plant to the fire pit and light them.


 * If you get the message, "The pungent smell makes the insects disperse," write down the stone colour that corresponds to the correct plant.


 * After you disperse the insects from the thermal pool, talk to either Grubb or Snarrk, who are walking around just to the east of the pool.


 * The ogre child suggests you next try the stones by the mud bath.


 * Go east to the mud bath.


 * Examine the pile of stones on the east side of the bath, and use process of elimination again to match the stones to the plants.


 * After you've successfully driven off the bugs, talk to Grunther, who is walking around near the mud bath.


 * The ogre child recommends you try the stones by the salt-water spring.


 * Head west, back to the salt-water spring.


 * Examine the pile of stones on the east side of the spring, and use process of elimination to match up the stones with the plants.


 * After the bugs have dispersed, talk to Snarrl again.


 * She suggests you try the sulphur spring next.


 * Go west, again, to the sulphur spring.


 * Examine the pile of stones to the south of the spring, and match the stones with the plants.


 * After the bugs leave, talk to either Grr'bah or Tyke, who are walking around near the Sulphur Spring.


 * The ogre child says you have only the Bandos pool left. By now, if you've worked out how the stones and plants match up for the four preceding pools, you should know which plants to use in the last fire pit.


 * Go west to the Bandos pool.


 * Examine the stones on the west side of the red, copper-filled pool, and match up the stones with the plants one last time.


 * After dispersing all the bugs, speak to Seegud and then return to Balnea.

Accelerate the action point

 * Talk to Balnea to learn about the "one last outstanding matter."


 * She asks you to trap the creatures wandering around the village. She suggests they may not be as easy to trap as you might think and recommends you talk with Chief Tess to learn how to catch the creatures.


 * Talk to Chief Tess.


 * She tells you the animals in the area are clever so you have to be sneaky to catch them. You need to burn "stuffs" to lure the animals to the traps.

Four diseased kebbits

 * To catch the diseased kebbits, set deadfall traps using a log on the boulders to the east and west of the salt-water spring. Catch two from one side and two from the other, as they won't follow you very far.


 * Bait the trap by using fever grass on the deadfall trap. Then light another fever grass and run around to lure a kebbit to the trap.


 * The smouldering grass turns to ashes after about 30 seconds, so have a few in your inventory before starting. The smouldering method uses the weapon slot, so remove any weapons you are wielding before starting.


 * If you try to set more than one trap at once, an ogre child scolds you: "Hey, you, human! You no allowed to clutter up Oo'glog wiv traps. You only set one at a time here."


 * Diseased kebbits become aggressive if you burn tansymum nearby and may transmit disease if they attack.

Five wimpy birds

 * To clear Oo'glog of the wimpy birds, set a bird snare in the area west of the bank.


 * Light a tansymum flower using a tinderbox and run around to attract the birds to the snare.


 * Burning fever grass will scare wimpy birds away. Burning lavender will make them peck you.

A family of four platypodes

 * Rid Oo'glog of the platypodes by laying a box trap and then burning lavender in the area west of Chief Tess, by the sulphur spring.


 * Platypodes have poison spurs. Burning fever grass may cause them to attack with their "webbed feet of doom!"


 * Once you catch one, check the shaking box to put the platypus in your inventory.


 * After you've caught the whole family (Patrick, Peanut, Penelope, and Peter), go to the north-east corner of the village, by the coast within Oo'glog (see the "baby platypus" part in the map above), and release the platypodes near the platypus holes.


 * Each released platypus gives you a casket or an oyster.



It's go-time

 * Once you've caught all the creatures, return to Balnea one last time.


 * You see a cutscene of the grand opening of the spa and the Wise Old Man taking the waters.

Congratulations! Quest complete.

Trivia

 * On the first day of release, when a player clicked to see spoilers it said: "The ogresses' customer relations has not yet incorporated this information into their incentivised pre-warning development plans. Please return when they have re-envisioned their interfacing and fed back to us."


 * This quest has many Australian references in it, such as Eucalyptus logs, and unlocking platypodes (plural of Platypus) as a pet after the quest.


 * Balnea's name probably comes from the Latin word for public bath, balnea.


 * The 5 Diseased kebbit furs received during the quest can be made into Davy kebbit hats by talking to Frawd, the general store clerk, and currently cost around 2000 coins each.


 * If you don't have 58 Woodcutting, if you use eucalyptus logs on Chargurr, she will say "yeah, very nice, human, but that not what I ask for."


 * The Davy kebbit hat, which can be unlocked by talking to Frawd and asking her to make one from a diseased kebbit pelt, is a reference to a Davy Crockett hat, or better known as a Coonskin cap.


 * If you burn any of the plants used during the quest and start the ending cutscene your character will be shown holding them during the cutscene but without any smoke.


 * The graphics used in the final cutscene are the old versions apart from the ogresses, this has yet to be updated.


 * During the final cutscene, the Wise Old Man says "Sat Sapienti," which means "sufficient for a wise man" in Latin.


 * Although a Saradominist, the Wise Old Man takes a dip in the Bandos pool during the final cutscene.
