The Fremennik Isles

King Gjuki Sorvott IV

 * Talk to Mord Gunnars at the most northern dock in Relekka to be taken to Jatiszo.
 * Talk to the King, but the cat will intervene. The king asks you to get the cat a raw tuna.
 * Give the tuna to the king's cat, and talk to the king.
 * Give the king 6 mithril ore. You are rewarded with some coins.
 * Take jester clothes from the chest behind the king's throne.
 * Take the boat back to Rellekka, then to Neitiznot by using the ferry operated by Mord's wife Maria.

King Mawnis Burowgar

 * Talk to Slug Hemligssen, behind the bank. He'll give the assignment to listen in only wearing the jester outfit.
 * Talk to Mawnis Burowgar while wearing the jester costume and entertain him - do everything he says. Keep an eye on the guards exchange:
 * 1) When do we assault the caves?
 * 2) In two days
 * 3) Good. How many recruits are ready?
 * 4) Seventeen so far.
 * 5) More shields are completed by noon.
 * 6) And the armour?
 * 7) I will finish the armour by tomorrow.
 * 8) And the two bridges we need repaired.
 * 9) I will fix them as soon as I can.
 * Back to Slug, and answer his questions. They will be about what the guards talked about. The answers to the three questions: in 2 days, 17 militia, 2 bridges
 * Back to the king, without the jester costume this time.

Bridge Repairs

 * Give the king 8 rope and receive them back with 1000 coins
 * Go and cut 8 arctic pine tree logs, and split them in the stump in the middle of the vilage.
 * Tell the king and receive anothere 1500 coins.
 * Get a knife from bank and repair the bridges (right click) to the north. Be warned; you may be attacked by high-level, hard-hitting trolls. It is best to repair a bridge, then go back across it and repair the other bridge from the same side rather than repairing the bridge from the opposite side, as it means you will not have to run past the trolls. Some can use Ranged.
 * Go back to talk to the King (Mawnis Burowgar) again, he'll pay another 1500 coins for repairing the bridges. Now the request is to investigate the troll caves. But first you need to make sure that the other king does not take the raid on the trolls in the wrong way.

Tax Collector

 * Back to relekka and then to the king on Jatizso.
 * King Gjuki Sorvott IV requires a tax collector for his new window tax which needs to pay for the expenses of the army.
 * visit the shopkeepers at the armourer's hut (8000 coins), weaponsmith hut (6000 coins), earning hall (5000 coins) and the fish shop (5000 coins). Tell all of the shop keepers to pay up!
 * go back to the king, who now requires a tax collector for the new found beard tax. Find Urda Stein (no beard, no tax), Hring Hring (ore trader, tax payer), Skuli Myrka (weapon trader, tax payer), Vanligga Gastfrihet (food hall, no beard), Flosi Dalksson (raw fish seller, pays tax) and Keepa Kettilon (cook, has a moustache, pays tax). The tax bag now contains 29000 coins.
 * Return to the king. The taxes are finally enough. Now the King requires more spying assistance. So, its back to Slug. (may need to buy ores to make bronze nails)

The Jester Part 2

 * return to Slug once more, only to get an assignment as jester again (sigh).
 * A rough capture of the guards exchange:
 * 1) What do you think o fthe new Burgher's Champion?
 * 2) He seems honourable and couragious to me.
 * 3) What about their collaboration with King Sovott?
 * 4) Well, i trust Mord Gunnars and he works for the King
 * 5) And the Champion was helping you to repair the bridges
 * 6) Well yes. So are your militia ready?
 * 7) I have them anchored near Etceterania.
 * 8) Then i shall sail our potions to them tonight
 * 9) So are we ready to sail at dawn?
 * 10) Absolutely, long live Burgher Burowgar
 * 11) And may the Troll general be short lived
 * Now return to Slug and bring out a report. The answers are near Etceterania, some potions, I have been helping. Slug is pleased with the answers and pays another 2500 coins.
 * Go to King Sorvott to talk spying progress. So change out of the Jester clothes. And sail to the other island again.

Traditional Fremennik Rites

 * King Sorvott gets an update that he is not prepared for, but he wont listen to sound advice.
 * Get a decree that you need to deliver to King Burowgar.
 * Hop islands again to talk to King Burowgar, who is obviously disappointed in learning the decree from King Sorvott. As leader of his troops, go through the ancient Netiznot warrior rites.
 * First make a yak hide armour. Get three Yak hides and have them tanned by Thakkrad for a fee of 5 coins per hide. Take needle and thread from bank and craft the tanned yak hides into yak-hide chaps (1 hide, high alch value 300 coins) and into a yak-hide body (2 hides, high alch value 300 coins). Each hide gives 32 crafting experience.
 * Talk to King Burowgar again to learn how to make a large Fremennik round shield.
 * Next is a shield which requires artic log, bronze nails and a rope with a hammer in you inventory. (buy ores in Neitisnot earlier in quest, make bronze bar in the Jatizso Clay forge and smith the bars in Neitisnot). Making a shield gives ... crafting experience. The shield high alch value is 300 coins.
 * Return to King Burowgar one more time to get the assignment to kill the Troll King and deliver his head.

The Troll King

 * Go to the eastern part of the most northern isle. Keep continuing. There are loads of hard hitting Trolls so think of prayer protects (ranged and melee). Especially the last part has a large amount of Trolls.
 * First you need to help with killing 10 trolls before assaulting the King Troll. To get there cross the south bridge.
 * A useful strategy is to head straight to the south bridge, where only Trolls with melee attacks will attack. Here you can kill the 10 trolls required to cross the bridge. A message in the screen will appear stating that the bridge to the Troll King can be used.
 * When crossing the bridge, a short cut scene appears and the Troll King will have the benefit of the first strike, so turn on range protect prayer before crossing bridge and top up prayer if needed.
 * The Troll King has a combat level of 122 and uses a powerful mix of attacks (melee, range, magic and teleport). It seems likely that a distance attack is more effective than a melee style of attack. The King does not seem to move around, so ranging/maging the King Troll would be a possible strategy.
 * When using melee, bring super set, prayer potions and good food.
 * The Yak armour is probably only required to qualify for leadership of the army, so take the appropriate type of armour.
 * After killing the Troll King, decapitate the head from the body.
 * Teleport away, bank and return to Neitisnot to talk to King Burowgar. He will give his Helm of Neitiznot in return for the Troll King head. After taking two choices for a 10,000 experience reward to any one of attack, strength, defence of hitpoints the quest is complete.

Rewards


The new Helm of Neitiznot is the equivalent of a Berserker helm with a +3 prayer bonus.

Trivia

 * The window tax may sound somewhat ridiculous, but it is the origian of the real-life phrase "daylight robbery"; people claimed that to tax windows would be equivalent to stealing daylight from people's homes.
 * Neitiznot is a german english mixture for "No it's not"
 * Jatizso is german english mixture for "Yes it is"
